- HN is out of control.
- because they are pulling what they are not supposed to. they are doing it illegally. that's why.
- what a nonsense. this is equivalent of "sovereign citizens" online. go and try it, and get yourself into jail.
- what a nonsense. they explicitly say "do not scrape us, unless we approve". they put paywalls and captchas. their service is literally selling access to users data.
now you scraping it. this is direct violation and direct harm to their business, despite their explicit statements for you to stop.
you loose the case, it is clear as day.
- > scraping LinkedIn profiles
is this legal? last time I checked linkedin.com/robots.txt do not allow scraping, unless explicit approval from linkedin

hardly can see what this app brings. also, it is paid and requests are routed to someone else? shouldn't this be free, local, and with bring-your-own–key already with things like ollama/llama.cpp?
- yes, it is pretty much tax at this point. they are not going for small websites nor giants, both are privacty nightmare. they are going against SHEIN because they have money. disgraceful
- 4 points
- > non 100% correctness of kernels
wouldn't model not work properly if kernels are even slightly off?
wasn't kernels a part of training stack for models? am I missing anything?

interesting to see this forum show-up again.
remember 15 years ago there were posts about DYI drone from some random guy with lots of theoretical physics about stable conditions derivations. it got a lot of criticism. now looking back and following what DJI is doing with sensors, his approach was totally wrong and that community nailed it with feedback. the forum got some extravagant ideas and some worthy criticism. at least back then.
- holdon, I own domain (with say Let's Encrypt certs), I have my own keys for signing WebBotAuth tokens, I host public cert at my domain...
where does CloudFlare come as a gatekeeper? what do they have to do with me sining my requests and my tokens? am I missing something?
- Hong Kong has good one right now with TTPS
China will be opening new visa track for tech in October, must be interseting to see
- Japan last year had HSP visa, which was a good deal (PR in 1 year + no Japanese language requirement). fastest permanent immigration track I ever seen
- get visa in countries that allow remote work. Portugal, Thailand, China now issue good vias that let you work for a company anywhere in the world and stay many years in the country, or start your own business.
don't let your employer keep you and your family hostage with your legal status
- > H1B unknowns
this. most countries have similar policies. been there, seen so many others going through this in UK, USA, Japan, Korea, Singapore. it really damages your life.
to everyone, check other countries (Portugal, Thailand, Japan) that give you residency for years and allow to work remotely
don't let your employer hold you and your family a hostage with your legal status
- say I start charging you 40 USD for clothes you have bought from someone else, you are washing yourself, reparing, and other people made, using their own tools and materials. I did close to nothing, and yet "you will be wearing it for a year". great, but that does not mean there is no ripoff from my part. I have close to nothing to do with your clothes, even if they are obviously useful to you for next year.
same story here. marginal contribution is too low compared to price
- you can pay for it 1000 USD too, nobody stops you
but that does not mean it is "worth it". as in, marginal contribution and work people did to make it happen. banana duck-taped to a wall, same story.
contracts are not laws themselves. but correctly done ToS (I bet LinkedIn does) hold very real legal power.
