Good point. Rules of the road regarding right turns and bike lanes vary depending on jurisdiction. But even though your link was for Colorado and I'm in northern Europe, the rule is the same: a right-turning car actually should merge into bike lane.

So, sometimes it could be that the Uber (or taxi) driver knows more about the rules of the road that the passenger, and when the passenger complains based on wrong understanding of traffic law, it's not an easy customer-serving situation.

I agree that CBT falls short with severe issues. I was going to CBT therapy and it caused the relationship issues with my wife (who suffers from borderline personality disorder) to be amplified greatly. My CBT therapist would constantly show me how my wife is irrational and manipulative. It caused huge amounts of distress to the relationship. I am now going to a therapist who does DBT and understands borderline personality disorder. CBT is still applied where it is useful but these issues require deep self-introspection and looking into the past. I've been so much better at communicating with my wife and have discovered my own codependency issues I need to work on. I no longer see my wife as someone who is evil and manipulative but understand that what she does and says is out of fear of abandonment.
It's a worthy subject, that interests me from in both its computational and behavioral aspects. As is the case in most applications of computing, the crucial aspect is the "match" between the model and the domain being modeled.

The behavioral domain is particularly problematic. Humans quite naturally use abstraction as a modeling tool, and the tendency is to construct abstract categories as a basis of sorting the "raw data" of observation. The difficulty in the behavioral realm is that phenomena are indistinct and sharply bounded "boxes" don't correspond very well to the real-world behavioral complexities.

In the article the distinction between psychotic and affective disorders is pointed out as an example of the "softness" of phenomenological boundaries. If we conceptualize the distinction as an array of cardboard boxes side by side, psychosis in one box, mood disorder in another one, the compartments of the model will not fit what is seen in a clinical setting. Rather in the real-world conditions resemble sand dunes, rounded peaks flowing into surrounding soft peaks, and no particular place where it could be said one dune stops and another starts.

Furthermore the confluence of a surprisingly huge array of factors is involved in the appearance or origin of behavior we'd consider problematic (if we could even agree on that).

I'd concur with the idea that computational models need to be consistent with and informed by the reality they are intended to represent, but experience suggests that the more fundamental issue is conceptualization of behavioral reality itself which is far more complex than our usual abstraction of it lead us to consider.
> It seems to be enough only in the more benign cases.

you're assuming a false relationship between level of consciousness and severity. Case in point: war veteran with PTSD. His PTSD is from getting shot at, not from a disrupted relationship with his mother when he was 5.

case 2: patient has a phobia of flying. therapist gradually deconstructs the phobia using CBT methods, until the patient finally gets in a plane and flies.

Subconscious issues are not correlated to severity.
Fine, that's your definition of broke. How about the rest of the points from the same comment.
Yes, it's easy. You just buy a travel-sized tube at pretty much any chain drugstore in the US. (Or, as is the case with many people, use the trial sizes your dentist gives you when you're in for a cleaning.)
He's not saying that the systems are the same, just that good and bad experiences are had in both. Thus, a recounting of one smooth experience in the UK cannot be used to say that their system is inherently better than the American system.

The post basically says, "Wow, we got medical care and didn't have to pay for it!" Everyone already knows that Britons pay for health care out of their taxes and not at the time of service, so it doesn't really bring anything to the table, and certainly doesn't make a case for or against one system or the other.

CBT is much cheaper than other forms of psychotherapy. It's a short form therapy, that takes between 8 to 14 sessions, of about an hour each, as oppose to the sometimes years long therapy of other systems.

EDIT: Its cheapness is one reason it's been pushed so heavily in the UK.

Websters has two versions. The first has two definitions: (1)(Vb) banish; exile (2) (vb) to withdraw oneself from residence in or allegiance to one's native country.

They indicate that it can be a noun, but without further definition.

Note the implication that it's not voluntary, or at least under duress (a la Snowden), and not necessarily with the intent of returning.

Second version is an adjective, meaning "living in a foreign land."

Probably Assembly. It was the primary language for demo's and games for the Amiga.
I think the immense amount of constant work is the biggest challenge. It may be that the use case for CBT is a lot narrower than current practice is selling it as. For mild to moderate anxiety though, it's pretty amazing if you stick with it, especially since the alternatives are all basically chemical.

I've tried cbt in conjunction with other mindfullness techniques: they required me to work a lot on myself and my thoughts (but this is right: you, the patient, is the one that does the work on itself, not the doctor) but it was one of the greatest help and valuable resource i discovered in my life. Really, can't even understand what they meant when they are talking about placebo effect. There is no placebo effect in cbt.
Great, this is an important milestone we've been waiting years for. No doubt there will be lots of problems, but that's the first step in getting them fixed.

Your definition is not correct, or at least it's incomplete.

There are many retirees who call themselves an "expat", such as those at http://money.cnn.com/gallery/retirement/2014/10/14/expat-ret... .

Arthur C. Clarke was a British expat in Sri Lanka. He was not sent there by a company.

Here's the owner of a company which hires Mexican agricultural workers for 10 months of the year - http://www.latimes.com/nation/la-na-guest-worker-20130331-dt... :

> He spends $1,000 per worker for visas, consulate fees and transportation to North Carolina. He's required to pay for their housing, and he estimates he has spent more than $80,000 building a house on his property, plus $36,000 to buy a mobile home and $5,000 a year to rent an apartment for the 48 workers he employs during the growing season. The government makes him pay them $9.68 an hour, which is about one-third higher than the minimum wage in the state, and he spends thousands of dollars on workers' compensation insurance.

Oddly, people rarely call those Mexican's "ex-pats." The only difference from your definition is that they work outside, and not in an office, no?

If so, isn't that the sort of socioeconomic class discrimination that keerthiko pointed out?

Similar story here, from the POV of someone with moderate anxiety, and very mild depression (probably as a result of the anxiety). Medication made me feel less, which was preferable to anxiety, but CBT was a set of tools I've continued to use. I had so little insight into my own thought processes, and the ways in which I was unintentionally reinforcing my own anxieties. It's taken a lot of effort, over a lot of years, but with that basic set of tools I don't need medication and I don't have anxiety or panic attacks. Ever.

Still, if you did have that set of tools going in, but for whatever biological reason it didn't matter, then I would guess that CBT would be dust in the wind for you.
> for me it was about NOT talking oneself into sadness.

Exactly. one tool you learn is how your thoughts/feelings/actions interact:

You cannot control your feelings, but they do influence your thoughts. You can control your actions, but they can influence at least some of your feelings. You can control some of your thoughts, which will influence your feelings.

(I may not have stated this exactly correctly, but the gist is the same ). So basically you learn that if you begin "investing" in healthier actions and thoughts (i.e. not sulking or self-pity or rumination), it will slowly pay off in less negative feelings.

No it doesnt' solve every single problem in your life, but a big part of depression is "learned helplessness" [1], and learning about thoughts/feelings/actions can be the first tool to counter this.

This is not so weird, actually. The border between France and Germany goes through a roundabout between German Saarbrücken and French Forbach[0]. The French city of Strasbourg has a German suburb called Kehl. The German city of Görlitz and the Polish one of Zgorzelec are effectively one[2]. Their names are actually identical, just spelled using German and Polish rules, respectively. You might think that only provincial cities are like this, but Bratislava, the capital of Slovakia, borders both Austria and Hungary[3]. Driving from Bratislava to Vienna takes less than an hour.

I've heard about this correlation before as well. When I went through CBT therapy I saw how logic could be used to re-frame issues to not assume the worst in a situation, i.e.: my boss doesn't hate me, he very well could be having a bad day today. However, I think CBT lacks the negative visualization aspect of Stoicism where you think pessimistically about the future in order to be prepared for the worst. This is definitely useful for someone strong enough to handle that and not get depressed, but to the average person with depression it probably won't help much if they aren't ready for it. I personally feel like the Stoics were on to something that is more helpful as a long-term solution rather than just getting by battling the current day's depression.
Can you give me an example of a domain where laziness is not desirable? I only do Haskell for side projects, so perhaps I lack exposure to some domains.
Whether this is a good thing or bad, the reality is that hundreds of millions of lines of assembly would be required to replicate complex modern programs like web browsers - projects of that scale will always require powerful HLLs to manage abstraction, something that assembly does not and cannot provide on its own.

On the other hand, when using Asm you can often leverage techniques not possible in HLLs to avoid complexity and abstraction. This is a fact which seems not commonly known, even in CS courses involving Asm, as those tend to be more about inspecting compiler output and the few "write in Asm" exercises are mimicing code that a compiler would generate, which IMHO misses the whole point of writing in Asm.

Here is an operating system containing many nontrivial applications, all written in 100% Asm:

Among other things, it contains a minimal yet functional web browser (around the same level of minimalism as Dillo or NetSurf, i.e. no JS or fancy CSS), and the whole package fits on a single floppy disk.

An entire OS with kernel, drivers, and applications in total can be smaller than a "Hello World" application in a "modern" programming language (which depends on countless other external libraries too, including an OS several GB or more.) It really makes you think.

Performance is UX.
Having experienced CBT as a patient, I thought it was a useful, but limited. I had two specific critiques:

1. If you're reasonably intelligent, it's easy to see how CBT "works" within a few sessions, and afterwards you can fall into a trap of telling the therapist what you "should" say according to CBT. Because there's a very specific goal of avoiding negative thoughts and thinking patterns, it's easy to exaggerate your level of success in order to "please" the therapist, rather than admitting that you've not make any progress.

2. My larger problem is that CBT puts a primacy on thoughts over emotions that I'm not sure is warranted. The thesis is that you have a established negative thought, such as "social situations make me nervous", which becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy, and so you are always nervous in social situations.

However, I am not sure that this is truly the order of things, at least for me. I observed that, even when I studiously avoided negative thoughts like this, the underlying emotions were still often present. Being confronted with a social situation produced a physiological response that included anxiety. I might consciously rationalise that response with a thought like "this is a social situation, and social situations make me nervous", but the underlying response existed regardless.

Freudian psychotherapy has a lot of wacky ideas about unconscious desires and whatnot, but it does at least acknowledge the idea that there is something within people beyond the rational, conscious mind, and that it it can be the stronger force. In contrast, CBT seems to be a therapy born from the opposite viewpoint: that the primal, subconscious, animal brain is entirely subordinate to the rational, conscious mind. Perhaps that's true for the people who developed the therapy, but it isn't true for me.

Masters in Counseling Psych here. The short answer is yes.

Basically people who practice CBT think that people who practice psychodynamic/existential-humanistic spend too much time analyzing things that may not matter with less direct evidence that it works. The other half(myself included) think that CBT is too much of a quick fix, and that yeah, you may want to have 6 sessions of skill building to solve your problems, but that will only provide a short term solution.

The reality is probably somewhere in the middle, and the skills taught by CBT are probably important. And if you have poor coping mechanisms or antagonistic thought patterns CBT is important, but it won't touch the underlying issues.

The funny thing about this article and the talk about the "placebo affect" is that to a certain extent many types of therapy are about integrating experiences: coming to an understanding about events in your life and the context in which they take place. The other thing that is linked most highly to success in therapy is the strength of the relationship between therapist and client(with a few caveats. The research shows this relationship should embody a few things and obviously it could be strog and unhealthy if there's something unethical going on).

But basically, talking about the placebo affect in mental health is kind of a funny thing. There are studies that look at placebo affects to certain therapies, but in general, since the goal is to feel better, if you think it worked and your supposed to feel better, should I come back and say don't feel better?(barring concerns about it being a short term effect). When the goal is to think you feel better, how(and why) do you suss out the difference. What I've always wondered, is do we think about the placebo affect the wrong way? Instead of seeing as something that disapproves efficacy, should we think about it as a power we should try and harness?
Something like "(x3+(y/20)5)" will generate a few lines of assembly (about 3 to 5 in this case, assuming registers are pre-loaded). But usually no, there won't be much more code. For example "while(1){..." equals just one instruction, and "for(x=10, x<0, x--){..." is 2-3 instructions.

edit: idk how to put a asterisk up there in the example above

I have no idea where people get the idea that one line of C equals 10 lines of asm.

PS Assembly is not hard at all, and is good to understand/read assembly when coding C. The only thing is that it is a bit rough to start coding in it (no good tutorials is one of the two-three difficulties).
This seems like a fairly dubious claim without something to back it. What makes implementations of newer languages more immune to heap-use-after-free and heap-buffer-overflow bugs?

My first guess is that the two main things causing this is number of lines of code (attack surface), and being implemented in C. The reference implementation of Python is also in C. GHC is partially implemented in C. Being implemented in C still seems common, and C is prone to these kind of bugs. Perl is a complex language, giving the code base a large attack surface. If anything, I'd guess languages with smaller implementations have fewer bugs, since one of the most robust findings on these sorts of matters is that the number of bugs is proportional to the number of lines of code independently of other factors.
