On: The Navier–Stokes Millennium Prize Problem

Basically no new info here, not really sure why this post needed to be written tbh.

[kzrdude → caughtinthought]

On the contrary, a level-headed summary that gathers information from all the different sources is necessary.

Sounds like a great use case for an LLM

[teiferer → caughtinthought]

They are busy generating pelicans on bicycles. The summary therefore needs to be written by a human.

(This was a joke. I value Simon's role in the community.)

[kzrdude → caughtinthought]

It's got 'max' and 'ultra' but I don't see a setting for level-headed.

Yes, you have ability to get information very quickly, but not everyone does.

There’s no shilling here. The person who posted the link isn’t the person who wrote the blog.

[sk4rekr0w → jdlshore]

He is in the HN ingroup of whenever he posts a blog, a prominent HN mod or poster with 1 billion karma will inevitably post it, and so it goes.

It's sort of like the music industry.

Does poster karma boost the post in any way?

[sk4rekr0w → neuroticnews25]

I don't believe HN boosts their algo but I think people recognize posters like celebs. I recognize tosh, simonw, etc.

Also it's an easy way to farm karma. The pelican guy posted a pelican, let's upvote it? It's at least a bit of psychosis / mass effect in this.

For what it's worth, I like the pelicans but just making an observation

> It's at least a bit of psychosis

I know semantic shift is inevitable, but can we put the brakes on this one at least a little? This doesn't even connect to the original meaning.

[sk4rekr0w → retsibsi]

Fair enough. Hivemind, mass effect, happy to have a replacement word in this case.

[ebcode → sk4rekr0w]

Let me propose: HNmind.

Good one!
