working on search is fun cause it's more like math and math is dense relative to the impact.
I've spent like a week trying to tune this query as a background task and it's driving me a little nuts I think.
Cobbling together pipelines on pipelines on conditional pipelines of distinct ranking models, fusing them together, and trying to do it on a CPU is so slow.
It's already some 5x or so better than prod, but there's a handful of corner cases that I know I should be able to treat.

good meme but she doesn't read SN
Somedays I want to rewrite SN's backend in golang. I miss go. It's probably the perfect language for vibing web app backends - cumbersome to write, high level but nimble, and easy to read.

What leads to this kind of behavior?

@melvincarvalho: i am still very interested in your response to my questions about your game theory piece (#1437021)
So does it activate below 55% or not?
Maybe I don't understand the nuances between the uses of the word
activationandlock-inOr maybe their reasoning and/or communication is just off?

From the BIP:
Which means Melvin Carvalho is wrong right?
I think so. It's possible that he is using a very different definition of activation? The only comment I have to work with was this (#1437006)
So he clearly understands that it activates whether it gets 55% or not. He just seems to believe that it is impossible for it to get any amount of hash rate greater than 0 but less than 55%...
Don't ask me why he chose to set up his game theory matrix this way:
Also in the above tweet, he says "55% is required for lockin, below that nothing activates." I have no clue why he would make this statement and the one on SN which contradicts it.

what if
I think someone was asking for a
controversialtabThe problem I see is that if you're not logged in to SN, those downzapped posts are fully outlawed. So any post on SN is only guaranteed discoverable by your subscribers, and people with negative infinity filter.
this doesn't have much to do with trust, it has to do with removal of
sum(log10(up))-sum(log10(down))This has more to do with trust than it seems because without trust it assumes one account equals one person. e.g. if I'm a troll, I will create 100 sock puppets to downzap 10 sats each. Put another way: trust is how we were counting people before.
I'd like to come with a solution to this that doesn't rely on one account equaling one person. One random idea: an account can only downzap as much as it has zapped any given day.
I'd rather see how this plays out than reach for more complexity.
I'll tell you how it likely plays out. The scope of people to downzap narrows after people will unhide their cowboy tools and thus the cost lessens. Compliance with an aggressor because they're sick of their posts being desperado'd all the time, is the status quo in 99% of stackers' day to day.
masterremoves gun/horse from everywhere but a stacker's profile page. That'll ship with more substantial changes in the next few days.That's actually a cool change. Reactive, but cool.
Currently the downzapper is at a 3x disadvantage. In order to downzap my post 100 sats, the downzapper actually has to pay 100 sats. On the other hand I only have to pay 30 sats to zap my own post 100 sats (as long as I use a sock puppet or anon to do the zapping). This is already a pretty strong bias against downzapping.
I don't think that that's reality. That's a theory that everyone has a sockpuppet.
In reality this happens:
It's not 3x more expensive for the downzapper. It's 1:1.
Now though, one account is enough. Haha.
I get what you're saying though: the log10() doesn't help against megatrolls and can be gamed, exactly like now.
With the down limits, I just upzap my puppet on my territory and with 9% loss I downzap away. Costs 50k a month to do that.
If I'm the average troll, I'd guess I'm less likely to buy a territory than set up sock puppets. But yeah, not a silver bullet by any stretch.
Other random ideas:
blockaccounts (hiding your content from trolls)Make this experiment for a month: you can downzap ONLY with CCs.
hahahaha SS will cry for my zaps with CC
Block will be abused like this:
post(k00b is a dick) && block(k00b)Then you make k00b2 and I rinse and repeat.
I think that, and forced mute, will probably make it into a Sybil war more than prevent one
atm this post has more positive than negative zaps, but nowhere near top in LIT, just wondering why, maybe the difference is too small?
The difference doesn't tell the full story. With
lithow recent the zaps and downzaps are matters. A downzap of 120 sats after 4 hours only counts for 60 sats, likewise for a zap of 120 sats (half life of four hours).May I suggest a 2 hour half life for downzaps, or less
You may. I was going to move it to 3 hours next week.
The moment of zapping counts since last weekend. Not the moment of posting.
works same with downzapping?
Good question. Was checking the code earlier but haven't checked that part. I expect it to be though

Fixed it on my end, the issue was that I was sorting

had to fix my sn cli a bit, but I've prioritized it and the bot is on it
PS: these bots suck so bad sometimes. lol
Later today or tomorrow you could make a post asking for this filter, with a list of possible names. The stackers would pick two or three options, then in another post you could run a poll with the 10 most voted ones for the final choice.
seems you have it figured out, be my guest

Coin of the Day:
I've deleted posts before, but I’ve never spent 100k to post. I think these territories were archived before crossposting was even possible.
cc/ @k00b
The
edit 10:00indicates it's a post you never paid for.Yeah, that makes sense, since the post doesn’t show up if you’re 'logged in' as anon. But how do you explain the crossposting then?
nsfw might be a badge and not a territory. can you click on it?
Exactly! nsfw it’s not a territory. ~lol
~zzzzz was a territory I accidentally created because I thought I was in the dev environment, but I was on the live site. I originally named it
~aaaaa, then realized my error, buried it alphabetically, marked the territory asnsfwto bury it further, then priced posts at 100k to discourage folks from posting in it.how does one post in ~nsfw territory? how/where does it appear?
If a territory founder toggles on
nsfw, the territory's posts aren't included in lit/new/top unless the stacker opts intonsfwvia their settings or visits the territory directly.https://x.com/X22Report/status/2024855916152017016?s=20
