rwhyan | 3 years ago | on: Show HN: A structured list of jobs from “Who is hiring?”, parsed with GPT
Looks great!
I've been playing around GPT information extraction, and I think your prompt can be simplified to save on token costs:
Instead of:
`The company name (field name: "companyName", field type: string)`
I use a prompt that looks like:
`... The JSON should consist of the following information, using the format <field name: field type>: The company name <companyName: string>`
I've also played around using JSON structure in the prompt, such as:
`Return a JSON object with following model, with the format <field type: instructions to extract> { "companyName": <string: The company name>, ... }`
In my experience, often the attribute name is enough and GPT can infer how to extract the information (i.e. { "companyName": string ... }

Is this a joke?
“Open source in 10 - 20 years. The software will likely be going open source in about 10 - 20 years.”
Also some images would be nice to get an idea before downloading.

Looks cool, but text is severely crammed (~10 characters per line) on mobile which makes it hard to read.

Interesting, but having to sign up to even click on a book made me instantly leave

rwhyan | 3 years ago | on: Ask HN: How to learn to sell?
Put simply: by selling.
How is it you learn anything? Not by asking questions, but by doing it.
By fumbling your way around until things start to make sense.

This seems trite. What's more fundamental to our lives than the utter uniqueness of each individual experience?
Merely examining ones own life would reveal the infinite complexity within our conscious experience.
rwhyan | 3 years ago | on: Malware Site That's Ranked 61st in World
I came across this interesting website that shows to be ranking 61st globally, according to SimilarWeb.
It is categorized as an "adult" website, but searching for it on Google only provides a list of sites claiming its malware. UBlock also flags the site as malware.
According to SimilarWeb, it has 700+ million monthly traffic.
And it has over 17.7 million backlinks according to my backlink checker, yet ranks for zero keywords (probably blacklisted).
Only the subdomain `syndication.[second-level-domain].com` is accessible, and the earliest archive.org for this subdomain is from May 13, 2020.
I suspect is has to do with malware and browser infections, causing users to unwittingly redirect to their website, explaining the huge traffic.
Anybody have further insights into what's going on here?
