Psychiatry is at the bottom of a deep pit. My hope is Millenials live long enough for this profession to pull itself back, at least half way up.

We were lied to about the effectiveness of SSRI drugs by the drug companies. Psychiatrists were as much victims as their patients. I don't blame Psychiatrists. I have the look on my Psychiatrist face imprinted, when I sat in that chair, and told him "That drug did nothing." It got to the point where I felt like lying. "It kinda worked?" But I didn't. It was my life--I wanted to get better.

I finally found a drug that worked, a little bit. I think that's the rub. You need to see a Psychiatrist to find a drug that works a little bit. Keep in mind that drug might be habit forming, so only go if you are certain your condition is Not Situational.

If your psychiatrist just offers SSRI's, ot tricyclics; find another Psychiatrist. If you do find a drug that seems to work, be prepared for mandatory office visits. They need to make a living. (These drugs should be regulated differently, but that's another fight. By regulated, I mean, if you are on a long term drug; you shouldn't have to see a psychiatrist to get refills.)

If I was to do it over again, I'm not sure I would take anything, but my anxiety was not situational. It came from "I have no clue. Just life?". I have found controlled use of alcohol helps. Try to keep the alcohol to a minimum. Two drinks for a panic attact. Don't drink socially. You are drinking to control that busted gasket. It needs time to heal. An understanding family really helps.

I have said this before, and I have no reason to lie. You will get better with time.

I have gotten to read my Psychiatrists face/non-verbal tells. I believe it when he says "Anti-depressants do work for some of my patients." I've looked into the litature, and they might help some really depressed patients? Might? If you are seriously suicidial go to the hospital. Don't rule out ECT. (Use it as a last resort, but don't kill yourself. Emergency room personal are prepared to deal with psychiatric emergencies.)

And again, if you are reading this and just not feeling right, a little dizzy, just not right; you will get better with time.

As to the original question; No--mainstream Americans does not need to see a Psychiatrist. Most good Psychiatrists only want to see the patients who don't respond to a Psychologist's therapy.

As to therapy--give it a shot, I guess? I found it completely useless. I think they did more damage to a once innocent twenty something mind? They might have changed? My psychologist was a Freudian. I remember making an a appointment with another Psychologist. "What's your reason for seeing Dr.whatever?" Me, "I was told I have a Electra Complex." Office, "A what?" It's funny now.

Good luck! If you know someone fighting these problems, don't give offer them worn our clichés. Whatever you do, don't take advantage of a wounded individual. I was financially abused at my worst. Will never forget that retched person.

Probably streaming and replaying youtube videos, or something similar. Not that hard to run through several gb in a few hours. Multiply by 30 (days/month) and you can see 60 gb a month being easily doable.

Torrenting games and 1080p movies is even worse - at 10-60 gb a pop, the time to hit a 300 gb cap is limited only by your download speed.
The situation may differ greatly among fields? For CS, ACM digital library is $99/yr which is pretty reasonable (I've been paying it for years and willing to chip in that range even ACM allows the author to put up the submitted version on his/her own site for free). I do occasionally hit paywalls of other publishes, and wish they make non-member per-article fee cheaper---like $5 or $10 instead of $35; they might set the per-article price that high to encourage institutions to sign up the package?

I'm not a researcher though, so my pursuit of papers are mostly purely interest-driven and can be given up easily. If you need to survey large number of papers I'd imagine the fee quickly accumulates.
Just ditch the "I'm such a fan of India's amazing culture and people" bit. No you bloody well aren't. Has Mark Zuckerberg ever publicly written or said anything praising India's culture or people that wasn't part of facebook PR? He might like India, he might admire its culture and its people, but it's ever so slightly suspicious that the only time he mentions this fact is when he's doing damage control.

It reads like it was written by a crisis management team, and it probably was. Apologies are most effective when they both are and are perceived as being sincere. It's fine to say pmarca stuck his foot in his mouth, it's fine to say that his expressed views are not those of facebook, and it's fine to say that facebook sincerely believes that offering a limited version of the Internet to poor people, for free, will be a great emancipator. But I think it would be a more effective apology if it came across as heartfelt, and that means leaving out what really sounds like self-serving praise for India.

I think what really bugged me is that it came across as something a politician would say. It was insincere and designed to offend as few people as possible. Which I find offensive, because it's not how real people talk. It's like the audience is being talked down to.

In this case, even in a broken implementation, the time freezes during the migration and is restored immediately after. This is bad since it makes even softwares using the monotonic API not able to count time reliably, however the result is that the time is over-counted, and never under-counted. If the algorithm is designed so that we want to count "at least 5 seconds" it is safe even during VM migrations. This is true for Redlock for example, but in general if one wants to exploit this system model, and can setup the algorithm so that over counting is harmless (if not for liveness), is a good idea.

Btw this problems could be mitigated by changing the majority. For instance in the case of a distributed lock, it's possible to acquire the lock in 50% + 2 instances in order to consider the lock valid, so that in one instance the clock can misbehave safely.

No offence intended, doctor, but I would like to see citations for a couple of your statements, specifically "by breathing calmly you will cure yourself from panic attacks..forever," and "psychologists know how to cure insomnia in a single session." These certainly aren't common knowledge, and they sound a bit overstated, while your broken foot analogy would not survive any degree of detailed examination -- as I am sure you know -- so I'm a but unsatisfied with your comment.

I'd like to suggest that your patients' beliefs might originate with a valid, correct observation from their lives; their experience is that they do function in a way that is different from others in their lives, and they have generally, in their lives, seen that those who have insisted that they do not function any differently, do not, in truth, actually understand their experience at all. I would suggest that you cut them some slack.

It's generally true, to my understanding, that one "always [has] the power to change [one's] mood for the better;" but its also true that human volition isn't very well understood, that self-control is understood to be a limited (albiet apparently trainable) resource that correlates strongly to blood glucose, that some people seem to have innately poorer impulse control than others, and that everyone experiences absolute freedom of choice at all times only in a crass and unsatisfactory Sartrean sense.

This leaves me wishing to suggest to you that you might want to avoid relative comparisons of mental health that admit a "strength of will" argument as to why one person might succeed in overcoming depression where another might fail.

I am sure that you do have excellent coping mechanisms, and I am sure that you are happier for it; I am sure that, by definition, most anyone would be happier if they improved their ability to cope with events in their lives; I am sure that every single individual can make a conscious effort to focus on improving their mental health. However, some will fail; others will fail to try. I am sure that you understand that it is nothing other than good luck that you were able to develop excellent coping mechanisms, even if it is a good luck that most people, perhaps even most people with mental health problems, might share. But your remarks make some strong generalizations and propose a virtuous course towards self-empowered mental health without being duly respectful of the actuality.
Why wouldn't it be an issue, unless you're a shareholder?
Some people are, but mostly just a hardcore few who are using protected branches on GitHub. I expect usage to tick up as I ramp up (in app) marketing for the feature and move upmarket into larger companies with more formal development workflows. But also, this was an investment in infrastructure that will allow me to offer other deep customizations later on.
The things Donald Trump says (such as "stop Mexicans from coming into our country illegally" or "ban Muslims from immigrating to our country until we're confident in our terrorist screening process") offend a LOT of people. People who don't believe such things should be said, or even talked about. People who, when someone says these things, viciously attack them, saying they are morally wrong for thinking those things. People that band together as a group to silence those who dare utter what they deem "inappropriate" or "politically incorrect" or "shouldn't be said, it's racist!"

In other words, I'd argue that Donald Trump, rather than being a fascist, is a reaction against fascists. Liberal fascists who squash the dissent against their group think with social media lynch mobbing.
> I made an ill-informed and ill-advised comment about Indian politics and economics.

Before entering a market with a radically different strategy, perhaps it is better to not be ill-informed or ill-advised. Business 101 tbh.

And when your board members say in public that they are ill-informed and ill-advised regarding one of your major strategies, what does that say ?!

If @pmarca was an employee he would likely be presented with a resignation letter to sign.
What's your view on use of medication to treat depression, anxiety disorders, ADHD etc? And just to be clear, are you categorically stating that any panic or depressive disorder can be cured with breathing and exercise respectively?
Amplitude Modulation, or AM, works by modulating the sound on the "peaks and valleys" of the frequency. If you were to look at the waveform of the carrier frequency, you would see it as variance in the "power levels" of the signal, going higher and lower depending on what's being sent.

Because of how AM works, you can actually hear what's being transmitted by causing an electrical arc. It's the same concept of hearing a "buzz" from high voltage power lines, except in a controlled fashion to produce sound.﻿
I guess it is because of the use of amplitude modulation [1], where the envelope ("strength") of the carrier (that is some higher frequency signal) follows the signal that is modulated onto it (speech, in this video). With say FM it wouldn't work, I presume.

Anxiety/Panic disorder suffer here too. I've found the same: exercise is definitely helpful, but unfortunately not sufficient in my case. If you want to try in addition: I've found mindfulness meditation to be extremely helpful, perhaps more so than exercise. It's torture at first (who knew sitting still could be so hard), but once you get in to a routine (even 10-15 minutes a day) for a few weeks you'll notice a difference.

Feel free not to answer if you're not comfortable, but would you say your anxiety is more 'mental' (e.g. catastrophic thinking) or 'physical' (e.g. shaking, butterflies in stomach etc.)?
Or maybe security trying to detect if someone is in stressful situations. Or maybe in some sort of augmented reality device. May valid use cases.
It's worth noting that a rushed service will likely have a rushed interface as well as a rushed implementation, at which he point the "clear and rigid" boundaries work against you as they're likely rigidly in the wrong place.

Oh. well, that sucks. Although for all we know, you might be immune to the debilitating psychological effects of lack of exercise that plagues most of the population, if you want to take an "oh look a glass full of air!" perspective on it.

I can see why assumptions about the curative powers of exercise would bother you.
You're misusing the word fascist. You probably mean something more like 'hard-liners' or 'extremist'.
I wish that I could be more vulnerable with my coworkers. Last year I grappled with intense impostor syndrome that ballooned into generalized anxiety and depression, exacerbated heavily by the feeling that I couldn't let any sign of weakness through. Eventually I reached a breaking point and had to say something to my manager; fortunately he was understanding, but I still worry that his confidence in me has been eroded. My breakthrough came when I was given an important task. It seemed logically inconsistent for someone who was hanging on by a thread and really not an effective employee (my self-narrative) to be entrusted with a task that genuinely mattered.

I still feel weak for saying this, but hearing another person say, "It was hard for me when I first joined this team too. Don't worry, you're doing a good job." was all I wanted.

Is Silicon Valley unique in lacking this openness? I suspect not, but have no basis of comparison.
This is just the Tolerance Paradox.

Except not really. There's no movement on the left to outlaw what trump is saying. Pointing out something is racist on twitter is not "squashing dissent".

It's not okay to lie about mental health. This is a dangerous post.

If you are someone who read that post and are about to take what was said as fact at least google the statement that is the most obviously fake: "Did you know that psychologists know how to cure insomnia in a single session?" and in doing so remember the word that was chosen: cure.

Red flag: (you don't need help you can help yourself)

> The biggest hurdle to overcome is the idea that there exists a magic barrier where your disorder goes from being something that you can cure yourself to something you need a professional for. The barrier is an illusion.

To blatantly dangerous and false statements:

> You always have the power to change your mood for the better.

From another one of this user's posts:

> In the last 50 years clinical psychologists have figured out effective psychological treatments for almost all mental health problems and manualized them so a professional can know or easily look up the best way to treat a disorder.

and:

> I regularly meet patients who are very depressed when we first meet who manage to overcome their depression in a couple of weeks.

Unwrapping the hortonworks sandbox. Tales by a newbie
The voltage applied to the cable is directly proportional to the audio signal, overlaid on a ~1 MHz carrier. All you need is a mechanism that transforms those voltages into vibrations or pressure waves. Presumably, since it seems to happen only when he's striking an arc, it's related to the local heating of the air in the gap ... But I guess it could be electromagnetically induced vibrations of the cable or the tower structure ...

There used to be stories, not entirely urban legend, of people who lived close to AM towers hearing the station in the wiring of their home, or in their dental appliances. Not impossible, considering that many AM stations broadcast with 50kW of power (like the one in this video) and can be received across a large swath of the country.
For the majority of people without CS background Language == Implementation.

So if the reference implementation is a bare bones interpreter, even though there are JIT and AOT compilers tp choose from, they will say language X is interpreted.

Which in Python's case means many ignore the existence of PyPy, given that the language designers don't want to change the nature of CPython.
If by "tiny drones" you mean electromagnetic waves, you can just bring a sat phone and call your mum and ask her to come pick you up.
I've seen more than a handful of presumably right-wing commentators on Reddit of late arguing that the Nazis were actually socialists or 'communists' rather than a right-wing group.

"Increased connection with peers, for one. It's incredibly easy to network now."

Is it, really? The girl in this article basically doesn't even LOOK at the pictures. The "conversation" is effectively: "Look at what I'm doing" "I don't care what you're doing" "Look at what I'm doing" "I don't care what you're doing" That doesn't seem like "increased connection".

But, this is also what I expect from a 13 year old.

So dumb questions:

Why were they shorting out the tower? (What was the purpose of the cable)

What are those rubber things?

What about a large metal helicopter (if it didn't crash)?
I was under the impression the publisher felt they would lose sales because of it. So yeah there is a huge distinction.
Actually I think the article isn't about "How to become a Snapchat user." but rather "how teens use snapchat (or social media in general) that is really different than how adults use it" .

Going from that to "what social media teens use that you don't even know about" isn't much of a stretch.

I'm not sure if I'll call mentioning these apps as "product placement".
Could be someone trying to up these app's SEO ranking. Could be just an interesting tidbit he used (he also mentioned instagram, and I doubt that was by request).
I meant your claim that "metallic requires black." I'm well aware that AR is only additive.
