Where does the sats from ads, replies and posts go? Do they all get redistributed, if not, what %, and what are the rough criteria?
All, 100%. The rough criteria to receive them? Consistently posting good content/posts/comments as judged by other trusted users. We use a Web of Trust algo to determine user trust.
Who is "trusted" for initially seeding the algorithm?
Me.
Eventually, I suspect users will be their own seed and see their own feed based on who they trust.
Probably pick like the top 5 stackers of the day, seed based off that?
It's trickier than that. How do we determine the top 5 stackers without establishing trust first? We'd have to "trust" that they're the top 5, but we can't.
Everyone trusts themselves, they are a singularity of trust to themselves, so that seems like a more natural seed.
I was talking about distribution.
I see. Currently we redistribute even to users who contribute non-top content even days ago, just less.
I'm working at a coffee shop today and 6g pops up on my laptop haha wtf is this where did the 5g go and when did we roll out thie 6g omg im dying haha
I heard from a "reliable" source covid was really 5g. 6g is monkeypox.
Going to hopefully push some of the little fixes I have locally today. Then going to go back to work on trust algo.
Ideally I can come up with some kind of model for how much a user trusts another user's upvotes given what they've each upvoted in the past.
Just as a small reference: I have to say today's list includes a lot of great content :) So you are doing something right already...
Are you structuring it such that users with stronger connection have more weight in their votes or the opposite
Users who have more in common with their votes, trust each others votes more.
But I need someway to determine this relationship with a potentially small sample size
I suspect I'll need to use some kind of binomial proportion confidence interval.
I read The Mandibles and i didn't like it much. AMA 😀
The summary I read made it sound like Idiocracy but for people who read.
It plays out all the worries that Bitcoiners have about the future with great detail. Like surprisingly all of the worries.
Listened to this nice Investor's Podcast Network episode with famous investor Bill Miller- states majority of his wealth is concentrated in Amazon and Bitcoin:

Don't let that happen. Do not become resentful. We are this world.
You’re why we need an AI overlord watching over us…if it isn’t already.
bruh. Please eloborate
Not my place. All hail the AI overlords.
All of it? Every last grain of sand?
yes. with a few exceptions of course
Yesterday, Monday, May 23rd, 2022, SN topped its previous all-time high for daily uniques: 1,154.
https://plausible.io/stacker.news?period=day&date=2022-05-23
The previous high was at 1,069 daily unique visitors, which occurred on Wednesday, April 13th. So this ATH beat the previous ATH by 8%.
Also, last week there was a streak of five days in a row with daily uniques above 1,000 -- from Sunday through Thursday.
Rapidly growing number of users is good.
But is content on site growing too? Is there a way to measure that?
And if users/content are not growing in tandem it might be worth trying out a first separate sub imo. I know Keyan wanted to wait at least a year - but maybe that's actually a bottleneck.
Yeah, number of items, which historically at least grows pretty consistently with visitors: ~20-30%/mo.

I miss OpenBazaar, why did they kill the project? We need a bitcoin only OpenBazaar
LOL, they burned 10m USD from Andreessen and some other VCs and stopped supporting it when the VC money ran out. Probably for the best.. https://www.coindesk.com/business/2021/07/15/openbazaar-co-founder-explains-why-web-3s-answer-to-ebay-folded-its-tents/
