My conclusion from the comic is that the client is happy. Clients like this don’t really want their designers expertise.

Does anyone have sample sites that return this?

Also interested in a sample site where the request successfully resolves ;)

If search in google search with site:ir it returns lots .ir links. I clicked on one and it went to a .com domain site.

This may or may not be useful. How all this works is beyond my knowledge ..

Are you asking if there are pictures of boobs on the internet?

You never know! Maybe they've all disappeared!

Can someone provide a tl;dr on him/why he’s important?

Gauss 2.0; He’s very prolific, very famous in the math community. In this context, he is noteworthy because he’s taking automated theorem proving seriously which destigmatizes it for other pure mathematicians.

Fields medal winner. Arguably the greatest living mathematician.

Some would argue more for Wiles or Perelman on account of solving long-standing conjectures.

I think what gives Tao the title is how multidisciplinary he is. He can wander in to a new subfield of mathematics and start making SOTA contributions after not very much time, which is a rare thing.

Top three greatest living mathematician, perhaps?

Yes, google can provide that in like 3 seconds, human parsing included.

I think this is the right line of thinking. My understanding of the grandparent's argument is 2 pieces:

1. Heterogeneity/homogeneity of labour.

2. Tight/lose labour market.

I think Argument 1 is the weaker argument. There's a lot of fungibility between software roles. However, there's a higher learning cost. Moving to a new software company requires a few months before someone is close to full productivity. This in contrast between a painter moving from a Ford supplier to a GM supplier will likely close to full productivity within a few weeks. The cost (to the employer) is lower to rehire someone.

Argument 2 is the stronger argument, but may not be forever. In a tight labour market, I see very little need for unions. If the marginal worker can (and will) leave their position for a better position (pay, benefits, culture, etc), I see little need for unions. However, if the labour market for software engineers shifts in favor of businesses, this will change rapidly.

Tight labor markets don't last forever!

This project seems amazing.

What are the potential downsides? Increased latency when routing? Unpredictable query times (cross shard vs in shard)?

Yeah, I posted because it's kind of blowing my mind. I was literally wondering this morning why this hasn't been tried -- essentially a pg load balancer, then stumbled across this.

Everything I hear something like “to get money and more credibility”, I can’t help myself thinking of the Key and Peele sketch about robbing a bank:

Thats literally whats happening.

They aren’t “infiltrating”, they’re doing the work and building your products

Its the most benign thing ever and more akin to violating work authorization than IT security issues or economic sanctions

I don’t think less of this type of content exists. Its just harder to find when inundated with all other slop on the internet.

Just doing a Google search for "animals made from circles", you get the usual header full of "Images" and "Videos" crap, then in the actual results links, you have the usual Pinterest linkslop, Facebook linkslop, Reddit linkslop, a bunch of articles written by the designer (now we're getting somewhere). OP's link is finally on page 4 of the search results.

For me, searching "animals made from circles", your comment put this HN thread as the #1 result while the #2 result was a syndicated article about the linked post. When I get more specific and search "animals drawn only from circles" it turns up the linked post as the first result. But my results may be more specific partly because I don't use ad blockers.

Or we just don't look past twitter and such.

Agreed that homes can be better insulated. However, poorly insulated homes still need heat. Heat pumps seem like a good step despite poor insulation.

Reddit used to be my go-to. However, it has become more difficult (not impossible) to find subreddits with nuance. Many have become either over-moderated or entirely one-sided. Plus the enshittification always rubs me the wrong way.
