News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

It’s an arms race between content creators trying to win an audience and the algorithms trying to surface relevant content. Other trade off is that many people actually prefer the layman blogs than the technically precise information that I personally prefer.

Great point. Thanks for correcting me.
Re:Mapping Coronavirus, Responsibly on Thursday February 27, 2020 @04:28PM (#22438129)
As a point of reference for how deadly the corona virus is, you are more likely to die by murder in New York city than you are to die by corona virus in Hubei, assuming a death rate of 2.5 percent. The murder rate in NYC is 5 per 100K whereas the infection rate in Hubei is 111 per 100K.

Edit: This isn't really a fair assessment. See the comments below.

Re:Milton Friedman's "Shareholder" Theory Was Wrong on Friday August 23, 2019 @01:40AM (#20774803)
Yea, I also took issue with this point initially, but I think the author was pointing out that Friedman's complaint of CEOs "short-sightedness" at its core was asking CEOs to exhibit a sort of social responsibility--the very same responsibility that he criticizes.
Re:Landfill is underrated and recycling overrated on Sunday July 14, 2019 @11:42PM (#20437956)
If the alternative to recycling is reduction by creating products that last longer, then recycling would increase profits and growth.
As a small correction, if Founder 1 gets 60% of the company and Founder 2 gets 40% of the company. Founder 1 is actually being compensated 50% more of the company than Founder 2. The article states that founder 2 has 20% more equity which is true in the absolute sense but thinking of it has 50% is the more accurate way of thinking about the difference in compensation.
