I love it! Would be great to double down on the experience, I'd add immersive experiences: audio / visuals to guide the discovery / interactiveness

Connecting the dots from the ideas of his book "How Countries Go Broke: The Big Cycle" to today's macro and financial situation.

What's your take?

I had the same problem with "Deep Seek" classified in "web search" :>

I'd list it as limitation of embedding models pipelines. Fetching the link would drastically help, but I wont for now.

Ideas on solving the issue?

Then all your feedback for the app is greatly welcome!

Is there a particular language or piece of content you'd try searching for?

I think it makes sense. I love the system to select comments of youtube and instagram (for different reasons). From a consumer perspective it seems that on yt time matters while for instagram personalization matters a lot.

Here personalization might be the most straightforward way to do this but it destroyes the beauty (for my little experience) of HN.. To have something based on where you're reading would be a crazy cool add on: comments of the text while you read through and final discussion comments.

What do you think?

The formular righ now for selecting in "the conversation now" is:

(points-1)× e^{-age in days / decay}

I am testing right now with decay: it was 14, I am wondering between 7 and 3.

Do you have suggestions on a different way to do it? Comments?
