LLMs would then license content from news orgs and other publishers, which is what should happen.

I think the problem is that when Archive.org has access to NYT and other publisher content, people can scrape NYT content at scale from Archive.org even when they cannot do so directly on NYT. If Archive.org blocks scrapers, maybe the publ

Cloudflare is most active in pushing standards, and highlighting the issue of bots scraping web pages for free. That said, the other major CDNs (e.g. Akamai, Fastly) also have Bot Management functionality, so hopefully this is not a gateke

Maybe ban AI-generated responses from users, but post AI-generated responses (generated by HN) that are clearly marked as generated, that can be upvoted by users. These responses could live within the comment thread, or separately (to the

Since OnlyRecipe.app is already parsing the recipe site, it would be a great feature to allow conversion to weights from volume (e.g. show 120g of flour vs. 1c of flour). Also, allow someone to double (or 1.5x...) the recipe as well, and h

I used it a few years ago with my former company. It effortlessly injected 10K rows of data per second, and we configured Druid over 50 dimensions and about 20 different metrics. In that configuration, Druid was able to respond to most qu

I have equal amounts of friends (in NYC) talking about their early stage startup investments (Doubleclick! Pinterest!) or their successful stock investments - e.g. the Facebook IPO or buying into Amazon in 2003.

Your assumption is that they are accepting the ICE contract despite their moral values. Maybe they do not see a conflict.

Increasingly people (esp. Millennials) consider ethics and values toward the top when deciding whether to purchase or use a product. Why wouldn't they get together and shame a company when that company acts against their own moral valu

Agree. I have used the term "incrementality" to communicate the incremental benefit of a given ad compared to a control whereas the article uses "advertising effect". Measurement is also difficult because every ad plat

I think that many people who work in ad tech are in favour of GDPR. They have seen the mishandling of personal data on a massive scale first hand. This is true in my case.

London did this a while ago and traveling around the city is much more pleasant. There is a case to be made that a congestion charge makes a city more habitable.

Look at the changes that have occurred with Washington Post in the five years since Bezos bought them. Pretty clear that WaPo benefitted from Bezos' leadership. https://www.fool.com/investing/2017/06/23&

You should thank USV for funding the companies (like Soundcloud) so that they can give you a few years of a free (e.g. money-losing) service.

The goal is for display ads to not suck to the point where Adblock, Adblock Plus, and Ghostery are required. For better or worse, advertising pays for the salaries of the people who write the stories and build the websites and apps that peo
