The book "Nexus" by Yuval Noah Harari essentially makes this same point. The way he phrases it is that information's primary role throughout history hasn't necessarily been to convey objective truth but to connect people

SSG gives you the best SEO because web crawlers can understand the structure of a static page with pre-populated content better than a dynamic site that relies on Javascript. The pages also load much quicker and score better on other metric

Yeah, those pages are definitely auto-generated. Static site generation makes it possible for those types of pages (I call them "shims") to jump to the top of the results list. I wrote about it here: https://zestyrx.com

This is partially due to the proliferation of data-driven static site generation. Two types of sites I see popping up are: 1) "shims", which generate the bare minimum static content required to get listed on Google, usually for ob

> SSGs have had neglible impact on non-technical users. I don't think so. Publishers are leaning heavily into SSG to improve SEO: https://zestyrx.com/blog/nextjs-ssg

Funny, I wrote about this recently as well. I'm a huge fan of SSG but concerned about the impact that it has on SEO and search engine quality. https://zestyrx.com/blog/nextjs-ssg

I’ve read that police simply aren't reporting low level crimes at the rate they used to due to staffing shortages and apathy. I would be curious to see the data too, but I doubt it paints the whole picture.

That’s far from the only benefit. Lawns have immense recreational value especially for families with children.

Overall, pretty well. I was able to make a major career shift, going from a data analyst to a software engineer in the span of about 9 months of self-directed study. I reckon this was one of the biggest positive changes in my life to-date.

You can also just generate an Open API spec and use something like openapi-generators to produce typed client code for data fetching ( https://github.com/OpenAPITools/openapi-generator )

It's also quite easy to swap out the templating engine for whatever front end framework that you'd like to use. Django provides tons of value even when used solely as an API server and ORM.

Baird Hall from Wavve made an interesting point that chatbots are a blessing for founders because every question/conversation is an insight into what users are thinking and how they view the product. As a consumer, I hate them. There i

I think there are quite a few other factors that could explain the difference in international tourism between Phoenix and NY. LA seems to be doing alright though with ~7.5M foreign visitors a year: https://www.discoverlosangeles

If that is true, why are there so many international tourists in U.S. cities every Summer? Furthermore I've both vacationed to - and lived in - SF at different stages of my life.
