That seems reasonable, but I'm left wondering what else I can reasonably draw from the article- if we present depression as a reasonable response of our inherent psychology that's attempting to induce us to change, what block can I place in the logic chain that prevents me from therefore automatically asserting that those suffering from depression should therefore "find out what's causing their depression and relieve it?"

I mean, I'm all for exploring the issue from many perspectives, and I don't intend the 'oblique suicide' remark as a condemnation of this line of discussion, I intend it as a condemnation of the natural conclusion of this line of thinking - that is to say, unless we add at least some minor caveat (I didn't see it, did I do a reading comprehension fail, perhaps?) that "this is discussion NOT for people suffering from depression but for their doctors and psychologists, we're just exploring possibilities, here, people!"

Or is this position not asserting that the 'cure' for depression is to find out what's wrong in your life and fix it? I mean, that's absolutely what I took from it, was I wrong in that? If that's the position in the article, is there some piece I'm missing that will prevent me from 'strawmanning' the author?

I guess, for now, I just have to assert that leveling a devastating criticism at a position - "this is tantamount to obliquely encouraging suicide" - that's not always strawmanning, sometimes it's just spot- on criticism. I suppose I ought to be another read-through to be certain, but I'll probably try to move on, for now- I just have to assert that I think my understanding of the author's position and my reasoning from these premises- I do think they lead to exactly the place I've described.

I still don't think that makes anyone evil in this discussion, but I do assert that it may well make them wrong at a deep, potentially axiomatic, level. I appreciate the opportunity for discussion, even if I disagree very strongly with the positions presented. :)

Not the same incident, no, but could it be connected?
I have no idea why you were down voted because that was exactly my reasoning :-) I live in rural Japan. I admit that while I was really angry about someone just coming in and pouring herbicide on my plants, I was more upset that someone didn't just come and talk to me about it. But that's Japanese culture and in retrospect I should have been a bit more outgoing in trying to explain to people what I was doing. In the end I screamed at the gas man from half way across the neighbourhood and he was so embarrassed that he ended up having to transfer to a different part of the city. It probably sounds strange, but I still feel really bad about that. He ruined my 5 year long experiment and killed my plants, but at the time I was yelling at him, it was already done. Hurting him in order to satisfy my anger doesn't actually improve the situation.

Edit: I should point out in my own defence that I didn't actually realize ahead of time that my planters were a nuisance. I weeded out all noxious weeds and my containers were fairly well isolated with about 10 feet of concrete in every direction. Also, there was a parking lot on one side of my lot and an orchard with about a foot of mulch on the ground on the other. The spread of weeds should not have concerned anyone. I honestly think they thought I had just abandoned the planters. It's too bad, but a lesson for me in the importance of optics when you do hair brained experiments at home ;-)
Very interesting indeed.

I would have never thought that the action of resting your own weigh in different surfaces would mean different things. Also, I'm sure there's a historical reason for that (whatever that may be), since even arbitrary rules as they may be, have to start somewhere, and it would be interesting to see where this one came from

I also agree that ignoring those rules and achieve personal fulfillment is more important. Nonetheless it's funny how different sports' rules compare to each other, i.e. "you can't rest your weigh on your equipment" vs "you can't touch the ball with your hands" or "you have to run to this mound first, and then this one, and then this one"
I've always believed that if one of GoogleMicrosoftAmazonFacebook etc. started opening up more major development offices in Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal (but mainly Toronto), we would stop losing so much of our top talent to the US.

Competition would rise. And then we'd be able to create a much stronger talent pool, higher salaries in the tech community, and overall a better ecosystem. But none of these companies have really tapped into this system.

But it seems like no executive at these companies has figured it out yet!
Can you be more specific? We may be talking about two different things. The Ubuntu phone requires apps specifically written for the UI (though I think things written against Qt's mobile APIs can be made fairly easily). The Ubuntu phone will not run your average X app. I'm not aware of the Ubuntu tablet proposed to be any different.

My understanding is that apps will indeed seamlessly switch between the two modes - but only where they have specifically been adapted to do so. Apps not adapted will not run. Or am I mistaken?

Hi ffceo,

Thanks a lot for your comment on FF. Feedbacks on investors are important for entrepreneurs, but unfortunately hard to find. I know too many entrepreneurs who spent too long time chasing investors who are unresponsive, unhelpful, or worst ("zombie investors").

The comments from you and nickpinkston above actually inspired me today to put together a little project called "Rate Our Investor" https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11378769. It is a crowdsourced spreadsheet that collects entrepreneurs' feedback on investors. Hopefully you don't mind the plug =)

Thanks again for the inspiration!

Absolutely. I would love to move back to Vancouver (born+raised) but it's so expensive vs. the salary options. To be fair though, while the tech jobs in Kitchener\Waterloo pay less than SF, the cost of living is very affordable.
The people whose jobs are to determine that say otherwise.
Rofl! These are interesting points, and honestly, cause for deep thought. If these premises are sound, one might argue that a large part of the rise of clinical depression as the problem is presently constituted coincided with the phasing out of the so-called 'opium cure.' XD

(I'm so not willing to commit to that position, but I mean, just looking at only those facts you've popped in right there, it sure looks like a possibility, no real harm in admitting the possibility of any given conclusion! :) )

I'd rather have opioid dependent folk than suicides, as well, mostly because I strongly trend towards any outcome where there continues to be choice and opportunity for betterment. Certainly worth exploring, at least in thought! :)

>>The problem isn't the tech
>How do you know? It says that apparently the methodology could be flawed due to things in the blood clustering together

kmonda, your statement requires some very important clarifications

1) your phrasing implies that there was a flaw in the methodology of the journal article rather than specifically noting that Theranos asserted there to be flawed methodology (A claim which other, independent, experts interviewed by the NYT did not agree with)

2) The blood clumping comment is, similarly, not an accurate representation of the article. The Dr. who noted the potential blood clustering issue was not noting it as a problem with the study methodology, he was noting it as a problem with Theranos' technology. This would contribute to error in Theranos' measurements, and the shift seen in the study. It would not contribute to error in the study itself. Theranos' assertion of error was about the vein blood draw causing error in the Theranos readings.

Further, the same Dr. whos words you are implying damages the credibility of the study is, instead, quite blunt about his opinion of Theranos

>“This represents just another effort for a failing company to cover up bad press for a technology that is not ready for prime time,” Dr. Frederick L. Kiechle, medical director for clinical pathology at Memorial Healthcare System in Hollywood, Fla., said about Theranos’s letter to the journal.

>Dr. Kiechle said it was known that cells in blood “tend to clump together and travel in groups,” so the tiny amount collected from a finger prick might not be representative.

EDIT: in the interest of transparency, I edited one sentence of this for clarity.
Thanks a bunch for the feedback, Josh! Forwarding right now to our Privacy Officer.
Agreed. Think of Texas salaries vs cost of living and compare that to Toronto. I have a friend that went back to school just so that he can get a TN visa and leave for the US
Ah, the false freedom of "it's their choice!" A fine way of avoiding the conversation. The guy in the article brings up a conversation he had with some Sherpa in which the Sherpa says he is making the choice between risking his life and feeding his family. That's the point here. Are you going to tell the Sherpa he can't even have the conversation because he made his choice and so he gave up his right to talk about it?

I'm glad all these HN commenters recognize that these folks made an economic decision and that there are other ones possible, like moving to Delhi to be a doorman or Dubai to do construction. Now that we've gotten the obvious out of the way can we get to the interesting conversation, that of what these choices are driven by? This isn't a question of the morality of analyzing bad habits. It's like ending a conversation on heroin deaths among white rural Americans by saying that they made a choice, or saying that those girls in Nigeria kidnapped by Boko Haram made a choice by going to school. All things happen as a result of an interaction between choice and chance. To make this conversation about individual choice is to make it content-free.

The content is in what we do in response to the choices we see. The labor movement was a response to exploitation in much of the world: what's the status of the labor movement in Nepal? Many countries have made efforts to diversify their economies when one fragile industry rules: what's the status of economic diversification in Nepal? How strong is the government when it comes to enforcing labor regulations? How are people taking advantage of the tourism industry to support other aspects of Nepali culture and the economy? What causes the fact that other jobs just aren't as remunerative? What about work opportunities for women, since the guides are all men? How much of the economic structure is bound up in how health care and education are delivered, since if those are all family-based then women don't have time to engage in the global workforce? How are connections with the outside world for marketing and shipping exportable goods or commodities? Is there information asymmetry that could be ameliorated to enable the Sherpa to make better economic decisions?

No, the problem of VM is not virtualization, but the notion of "machine". What Docker really does is to get rid of the full-blown machine/guest os, and focus on app. As such, you can run Docker image with Linux container for sure, you can also run it with hypervisor, which is surprisingly fast to boot too (<100ms).
> The one thing that I think has the potential to make VR popular is monitor replacement. Other than that, when I look at the future of this kind of technology I see AR. Not VR. I am sorry Rift fans, it was painful for me too.

VR/AR as monitor replacement is actually the application I'm most excited about personally. I'd love to see a Google Glass/Hololens type device that functions as a wireless Miracast/WiGig monitor and nothing else, which could hopefully bring the product into the realms of affordability.
It is detailed, but in all the wrong ways: instead of describing the problem that he's seeing and offering data, he has jumped to a code path that he believes is inducing it -- without much in the way of supporting evidence. And yes, he talks about bad HW ("access to the second port on the card currently fails to acquire swfw sync"). The ensuing discussion is more of a desultory wandering than it is a deliberate investigation into his problem -- which isn't surprising, because he hasn't described a problem but merely an observed artifact in the system. (Long lock hold times can easily be misleading; when exploring latency bubbles, one needs to be very careful about tying observed behavior to the latency outliers, lest one discover problems without discovering "the" problem.)

So yes, I stand by my summary of the thread.
There's even a whole subreddit about it /r/retrocomputing I think.

I have a couple of IBM X366 servers. They are quad-Xeon with 8GB of RAM each. They require two power supplies to be plugged in or otherwise will keep fans turned on full power constantly.

They are inefficient for daily use, but great for lab work. I spin them up, run whatever distributed task I need on 8 cores with 15K SAS drives, usually distributed Sony Vegas renderer, and shut them down. They also make a great lab for virtual machine work, so that does mean bringing the cloud in-house. :)

The X366 is a serious piece of hardware that later got renamed to 3850. Their current incarnation is http://shop.lenovo.com/us/en/systems/servers/mission-critica...

You can read it as "pull on gear". In "free climbing" pieces of gear are slotted inside cracks and the rope is clipped to them for safety. If you grab the gear and use it because you can't climb the natural face it doesn't count as "free-ing the route". Many routes have sections where this is mandatory or very common. There might be a great moderate climb with one small stretch that is significantly harder, so people pull on their gear through that bit and enjoy the rest.

There is also great pride in being the first one to "free a route", free climbing a route where all previous parties have used gear (also called aid climbing).

Full-on aid climbing generally involves hanging a ladder from gear, stepping up on the highest rung, and placing another piece of gear and a higher ladder. This can actually be incredibly physical and incredibly mentally taxing since the gear used might be a tiny hook hanging off a dime edge, or a postage-stamp sized piton hammered into a seam.

Hope that helps!
Women are smart: they wouldn't accept beer pong, fooseball and grueling hours with no job security; that's a young man's game, because nobody else is that stupid.

Nope, I think we should get rid of the states and turn them into administrative districts of the federal government. The state governments are hotbeds of corruption, ruled by minority interests because state elections have low voter turnout, and add an enormous administrative tax to pretty much every economic or legal transaction that happens in the U.S.

Big Iron still has a place between commodity clusters and super computers. My dad used to work on them and he once referenced doing some operation on his local PC circa 2000 realized it would take several hours, so moved data to the TeraData machine where it took "Approximately how long it took my finger to lift off the enter key."

For some things having silly amounts of RAM and a few hundred disk drives and multi gigabit interconnects just works really well.
I agree. I've been lucky to not have been asked any questions like these here in NYC—until now. The only reason why I am still going through it is because I really like the company and people, and they did ask me fair, on-topic questions in our first interview. But yeah, studying trees when I could be doing open source sucks.
Compelling a plaintiff to continue a case sounds absurd. Is there precedent for such a thing?
Reelin' and ROCin', Receiver Operating Characteristic
I think the solution to your dilemma is that we have a shared responsibility for each others' mental health. Indeed, isolation and alienation are part of the cycle of depression and breaking it necessarily means relying on others for mutual support and aid. Emotional labor is an often underlooked and undervalued aspect of human relationships. Performing it for each other is one way in which humans support each others' well-being. Depression and anxiety, as problems of environment aren't of the Human and Nature variety, but the Human and Human variety. A person that is depressed has lost the ability, or never had it to begin with, to regulate their social environment. To be quite honest, most of us don't have that much control over our own social environments. It is too costly, too risky to live a life too far off the beaten path. The structure of our society determines what social environments are easy to achieve and maintain and which ones are difficult, and for whom it is easy and difficult.

This can explain why the rich suffer from depression too within the environmental framework. Material wealth usually implies being embedded in a particular part of society, and there's no reason why that environment which is good for making money is any good for one's personal health. It is for some people, not for others. One example in recent memory is Notch, the creator of Minecraft who became a billionaire for it, but a few years ago lamented how socially isolated it made him.

Human beings are fundamentally social creatures. It is often the case excepting physiological disorders that mental disorders are social disorders. No particular feature of our societies' structures is completely fixed. Our relationships are radically different today compared to 50, 100, 1000, 10000, 100000 years ago, and yet our brains have the ability to adapt to such changing circumstances. It's clear however, that what is tolerable for some is intolerable for others. Social problems manifest first as individual problems amongst the most vulnerable. The rising tide of mental disorder is a rising tide of social disorder.
Mostly correct. My recollection from my early days mobile programming was J2ME or BREW. J2ME was java, BREW was c++.. and usually seemed to be used by more constrained devices that couldn't afford the Java runtime overhead. BREW had all the pain of unmanaged c++ on the desktop, minus any good tools for debugging, and writing safe code. J2ME mostly worked and the carriers liked having a standardized format that encompassed the whole asset chain rather than each app writing thier own custom code for everything. Changing a carrier logo in a J2ME app was often as simple as dropping the new image into the Jar file.. vs BREW where you would have to resurrect the complete tool chain of that project, to fix anything that broke after the original contract ended.
Really interesting article, thanks.

Inaccurate.

These symptoms can be caused by trauma that happened in the long ago past. Your current life situation could actually be fine but you have symptoms of past trama.

Seen too many people running around making drastic changes in their lives in an attempt to feel happy but each change just brings more depression because it doesn't work.
