My thinking is that delirium is probably a symptom of impaired metabolism and/or malnourishment and/or insulin resistance. When a person's mitochondria can't make enough ATP to keep them going, sometimes they become delirious/psychotic [1].

Coconut oil is useful because of its high proportion of medium chain triglicerides. Longer fatty acids have to be transported with carnitine to be metabolized in the mitochondria.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medium-chain_triglyceride#Medi...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fatty_acid_metabolism#Fatty_ac...

The alcoholic brain tends to be insulin resistant, and uses acetate (a breakdown product of ethanol) as fuel, because glucose isn't available, or isn't can't be delivered to the mitochondria in sufficient quantity.

[1]
Thus, without careful assessment and history, delirium can easily be confused
with a number of psychiatric disorders or long term organic brain syndromes,
because many of the signs and symptoms of delirium are conditions also present
in dementia, depression, and psychosis.

> Our system worked as designed: The candidate that won the electoral college won the presidency.

Well, yes, the system worked as designed. But that's not the question that's being studied.

The study evaluates if people feel that 'our system' is a good one. And the not just whether the electoral college to select a president is a good example of a representative democracy, but whether a representative democracy, where we hold elections for the people in the society to select representatives to govern us, is a good way to organize humans.

On the one hand, no, Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump were clearly not the smartest, wisest, most knowledgeable humans the United States could offer, who would be the most successful in communications with other countries, who would offer public policies that maximize the desired benefits and minimize negative consequences in the ideal ratio, who would handle the issues that they are presented with throughout the presidency with the greatest understanding of the issues, and who would select advisors and delegate responsibilities as required.

Someone with these characteristics would not likely be selected by the people, who would lack the information to determine which person they were. Even with a knowledgeable population, people would disagree on the policies they would implement. Also, someone with the best characteristics would be continuously improving their abilities, rather than campaigning.

On the other hand, the electoral college and presidency, flawed as they are, are better than a military coup, anarchy, or a dictatorship (assuming the dictator isn't this ideal leader, or wouldn't select an ideal successor).

There's no question that democracy as a system has some inherent problems. But I doubt that we can come up with a better alternative than a representative democracy, which is I think the main drawback of this survey.

There's also no question that the form of representative democracy we currently have is corrupted and inefficient, and that we could make one more fair and accurate than it is. But I doubt it would stay that way.

Yeah I noticed this also. Its a reoccurring theme in conversations I have with nongamers that "respect" gaming, they really do respect it, but find it difficult to get past the subject matter of the game and focus on the gameplay. I'm hoping to tackle that with my new game. Basicly it looks spiritual (it actually is to me) but offers fairly standard gaming mechanics. Just hoping it might help people get beyond the subject matter and into what's important about gaming...and be helpful in general for them.
exactly. if it comes down to people internalizing information from various sources without any critical thought, its really too late for democracy. trying to vet the sources after the fact is pointless. if any random person can bring down society purely by spewing innuendo, then the whole premise of the fourth estate is flawed.
Yeah, but we're outnumbered.
Fighting fake news would not increase the degree to which Facebook shapes what people see. It would just adjust the criteria. Facebook already exerts total control over what its users see.

"Discretion" is not the right word, though, because Facebook is algorithmic. The problem is simply that the algorithm is optimizing for the wrong thing, which is causing harm.

It's like if you decided what to eat and drink solely by how sweet things taste. Each individual bite would be pleasurable. But the long-term health effects of eating nothing but sweets would be terrible.

Blocking is not the only answer BTW. Simple labeling would go a long way. The Onion would still be funny with a little "satire" tag.

This is an interesting idea. It would require a sea change in the city.

You'd have to fight a lot of business owners. Most transit in Manhattan is by foot, and you will have separated pedestrians from commercial entryways. As it stands, a great deal of storefronts—even in the most commercial and highly trafficked parts of the city—are in mixed-use buildings, with apartments in the upper stories. Now most potential customers, instead of walking past shop after shop, are walking past residences. Signs may point out what lies below. Presumably this would cut into businesses which rely on customers popping in without planning to; if you weren't going to exit onto that block for something else anyway, why make the climb down to commercial level just for a little something that caught your eye?

And how did it catch your eye? Stores could no longer entice with a storefront, by showing off their inventory and sales. Restaurants, bakeries, and coffee shops could no longer waft out onto potential guests. They'd be in virtual basements, and would be much less attractive for that reason alone. Manhattan has a history of severing its residents from one thing or another—waterfronts are the first to come to mind—but I would be surprised to see them do this.

Of course, not everything has to remain as is and the city may evolve (as it has before), but this sort of plan would require much more work than building a tiered roadway.

Maybe in the future, when 'brick and mortar' starts to fail even in densely populated areas, the problems described above won't be problems anymore. But then, neither would the traffic; and the tiered roadway would be redundant, and not worth the money to maintain (nor the daylight lost).

Even if it is done correctly with a comma after the 'bar' instead of a semicolon, I think it is a bad practice to separate statements with commas. But if you think in semicolon all of the time and skip some brackets then you will mostly get similar buggy code as the above.
One reason you would like to go full Ip6 internally may be if your network fit well in a case where you can have only 1 DNS server instead of maintaining 2: 1 for the external IPs plus 1 for the internal IPs. With IP6 you could get rid of the internal DNS server (Which would be simpler for small networks).

> why do you want Facebook to exercise even _more_ discretion over what kind of news people see?

The argument is that, whether we like it or not, Facebook has become the hub for millions of people and these people share articles with each other. Media has become decentralized, and although the libertarian approach of do-nothing sounds nice, we just found out that in practice it doesn't work very well. You thought the Reddit fiasco with the marathon bomber was bad? The equivalent is happening a thousand times over with fake news spreading faster than the news that debunks it.

Ultimately it's a very hard problem to solve.

Fake news, and its far more dangerous big brother, propaganda, can have an enormous effect on a society. Providing people with tools to identify real information from fake information seems like a great thing for those who want to use them.

But a lot of folks (whether they realize it or not) want to see fake news because it confirms their personal worldview (or: how everyone loves confirmation bias) and makes them feel good about being part of their in-group.

I suspect folks who push for censorship think that it will somehow ensure these types of folks don't consume fake news or propaganda (probably without realizing that they, too, have consumed fake news from time to time).

But the reality is fake news has existed for a very very long time. Hell, you could tune into MSNBC or Fox News and find stories that border pretty closely on fake news without even trying. And, again, they do it because it increases ratings. And it increases ratings because it makes people in their respective demographics feel good.

So what you're ultimately trying to fight is the human need for a sense of belonging, and the desire to feel good about their personal beliefs. Good luck with that...

Great points! Being willing to listen is step 1. That's the product culture that needs to exist first and foremost. Completely agree with you: knowing what to do with the feedback you receive, and how to interpret it in order to innovate and solve real problems is the key that I firmly believe drives the ultimate success of a product.

Poker analogy: the nut is the one card that forms the best possible hand out of the shared cards on the table. Having the nut card in the hole means you have it in your hidden cards. When you're in this position, you know you're going to win the hand but the other players do not and your goal is to get them to bid as much as possible on the hand without tipping them off that you know you will win it.

Closing the LA company and moving the entire IP to a new global company is in breach of her original investment deal.

Providing access to education, but not necessarily providing the education yourself.

It isn't always feasible, due to either a lack of time or a lack of knowledge on the parents' part to provide a full education to your own children. Which, of course, is why many homeschoolers use partnerships with other families and, sometimes, schools.

It's essential to the growth pattern of dendrites that neurons are able to recognize and avoid themselves. There's evidence that alternative splicing (the genetic differences you mentioned) arose in cadherins before even the immune system. Basically alternative splicing provides each neuron with a random key that has a ~1/30,000 chance of collision.

The gray zone expands even more with the lesser-known satire sites, which sometimes have a mix of articles that are obviously satire, and some that aren't.

For example, I've seen a few articles shared as truth from "World News Daily Report," which played it so straight that I would have considered it "fake news" if I hadn't seen the satire disclaimer tucked at the bottom of the page. Other articles on that same site are much more obviously satirical though. I tend to blame this on poor writing rather than malice, though you can probably make a decent counterargument.

Some sort of "possibly false" notice attached to links like these, rather than just a "block or not" decision, seems like it would strike a nice balance here.

How to Make a DSL, Hygienically with Ruby
Inferno is very similar to React, but with enough differences in implementation that the contributors decided to make it its own project. Competition is good. Cars weren't invented by everyone focusing their effort on building the same car. Instead, many teams built many cars with similar, overlapping functionality, and over time, the good parts stuck around, and the bad parts came out in the wash. JS UI libraries are no different. I don't understand everyone's apparent obsession with uniting around "one true JS framework". Use what works for you. Build what you want to build. But don't complain that someone built this library that you don't want to use.
