Anyone considering Turso?

Shouldn't this work?

find /path/to/directory -type f -exec cat {} + > output.txt

Fake it before you make it :)

The biggest obstacle is gpt cost per query. How are you planning to scale this?

Yup, it makes a difference.

Exactly, Tiktok can algorithmically identify a few 100k persuadable voters in a few battleground states and feed them the political viewpoint they favor. Thus CCP can influence our elections. Its easy do this in stealth and there is no way to prove from outside that it happened!.

We already have laws that restrict majority foreign ownership of traditional media, why cant we extend it to new media?

Yes, the marginal income taxes were high but the capital gain taxes were low, so the rich didn't pay much. For example when the top income tax was 91% in the 1950s the capital gain tax was just 25%. See the historical top income and capital gain tax rates here https://ctj.org/pdf/regcg.pdf

I agree relative to income, US housing is still one of the cheapest in the world. But abundant land don't explain it as in countries with even more land like Canada, housing is more expensive. Maybe its the substantial carrying cost of real estate in US (high property taxes) which discourages people from using it as pure store of value (like Chinese).

California actually spends less per student on education than even many poor states. For all their virtue signaling about public transport, CA don't even have universal school bus service (which is table-stake in most states). Most parents drive individually and drop kids!

Just compare the building/facilities of any top bay area public school with that of Texas. The former look like shack while the latter look like mini universities. Bay area schools still rank higher because of students and parents, its nothing to do with the state.

Nuzzel reincarnated?. I was a heavy user of it and really miss it.

Is it legal to scrape search results and use it in a competitive product?. Is this a legal grey area or its settled in court?

Most of the internet ads are direct response. As long as companies get back more than they spend they keep spending. So there is no set "budget". If direct response goes away there is not enough brand budget to buy all the ad impressions so the prices go down a lot.

CPM price for targeted ads is lot more than untargeted ads. So likely the publishers will increase the number of ads per page to maintain the same eCPM yield. Also the ads will optimize for top of the funnel (clicks) than bottom (conversion). So we will start to see aggressive & intrusive ads. (remember the "punch the monkey" ads from the early 2000s?)

True, the property tax rates are higher in TX. But since house prices are much less, in absolute terms you pay less property tax than CA. Combine this with 0% income tax, your tax load is a lot less in TX than CA.

Bits > Atoms

For Engineers and Doctors from India, its takes more than 20 years to get Green card now. Its because of the arcane country quota system which assigns the same numerical quota for each country regardless of population, so India and Monaco get the same number of Green cards.

This is the remnant of the pre-1965 racist immigration country quota system which allowed only European whites into US.

Interesting but not sure how legit it is.

On the other hand, Dallas is the hub of 2 airlines so well connected. With the rent money you save you could afford to take multiple mini vacations a year!

so this is similar to fast.co?

True, subscription is the main revenue source, not ads in this new media environment. So the way to optimize is to find a most passionate tribe and serve their point of view.

This is why NYT is going to stop growing if Trump loses in November. With no need to resist there is no need to subscribe

Check the top companies in Europe, it's mostly the same companies founded 100 years ago or something. The increased regulation in Europe just helped existing big companies, not new ones. Compare this with the US where the list changes every 20 years or so. https://www.forbes.com/sites/jonathanponciano/2019/05/15/eur...

Political ads are a tiny portion of FB revenues, just around 0.5%. In fact, they may be losing money on this as it needs a lot of manual moderation

This google review for the attorney mentioned in that article is heartbreaking

Dear Tanya Moore, you don't know me, but I've been following your exploitation of small business owners across the Bay Area for some time after you sued my parent's Mom & Pop copy shop for minor ADA infractions. They never recovered financially. From there followed a divorce and subsequent estrangement from both their children after unbearable drama and suffering. Our family has never been the same since you and Robert Kalani put a cloud over our lives. I want you to know what kind of chain reaction your actions and how you chose to use your law degree caused. Your aggressive tactics on small business owners who are already barely surviving is frankly despicable and your immoral decisions have negatively affected approximately 30+ people in just this one case. It looks like your day of reckoning has recently come in July '19 and I hope legislative changes follow as well.

Interesting idea. Maybe you should think of extracting text content from the images for more SEO fodder.

As the article said the TAM for political ads is only a few hundred million dollars. That's not worth the increased scrutiny.

This is a better SEO guide for beginners https://medium.com/startup-grind/seo-is-not-hard-a-step-by-s...

The article is just simplistic first-order SEO thinking... Of course, long-tail keywords (Programmatic SEO) are going to convert much better. But you need high-quality editorial pages to attract backlinks that help to rank those long-tail location pages.

Surprised Stripe ranked ahead of Airbnb. But thinking about it makes sense, Stripe eventually will skim a percentage out of every transaction on the internet... Also only one ad-supported consumer internet company, all are either Saas or marketplaces

No, the h1b visa comes with an option to apply for permanent residency (Green card). So the comparison here is the ten-year software license comes with an option to buy the lifetime license.

Anyway, the issue here is that the archaic laws discriminate based on race (country of origin) which is both unfair and doesn't make sense for the category (employment-based visa).

Its sad people don't show the same empathy for legal immigrants they show for undocumented immigrants!
