See, I both agree and disagree with your statement.

Exercise itself has never produced results for me. Generally, it meant I was still stuck in the house doing something I hated. I haven't always had the luxury of going on regular walks or anything like that. I don't get a rush from being physical. Until recently, I couldn't even afford sports bras for running. Without the bras, anything too "jumpy" was physically painful. (I wear a special size, even when thin like I am now, and they generally cost between $60 and $100 when I can find them. Pre-internet, I simply couldn't find them).

All this said, having better physical health does help a bit. But eating well and feeling some pride that you've changed your diet for good? Yeah, that has benefits. The hardest part was finding the combination that worked for me (mostly vegetarian with the exception of fish). Losing weight? Yeah, that had definitely helped (I, too, have lost a great deal of weight and kept it off for years). Walking as a main form of transportation? That is my physical activity and I take some pride in being able to do it regularly. I still hate exercise for the sake of exercise, though.

It definitely wasn't a cure at all - that took actually changing my life. And it was hard. And i'm gonna guess that your exercise was a combination of things - like being able to use the coping mechanisms better. Simply growing up (I started a lot of my life changes in my late 20's, and I'm 39 now) I got out of a bad, stressful relationship with a schizophrenic man. I learned that a lot of the negative feedback I had gotten from others over the years wasn't necessarily true and the few friends I have are positive influence. Heck, I actually have a couple friends that aren't family.

Some of it was pure luck - I wound up moving overseas to a place that I fit in better than I did in small-to-medium towns in the midwest. I'm able to completely be myself at home: A weird bisexual artist that spends a lot of free time at home. I learned how to relax.

Admittedly, I'd not recommend some of what I've done to folks since I'm pretty partial to hallucinogens and visit Amsterdam every once in a while, both with my spouse and by myself. I'm gonna guess some of my crap wasn't depression, though - I completely understand why MDMA is seeming like a wonder drug to the researchers. I had a marked change in thought process after doing it once. By the time I tried it, though, I had already come a long way.
Ah good spot, thanks.

Might be good for them to spell out their product plans in that case. From an outsider's perspective, places like Microsoft would seem far better suited for AR researchers, given that they've been researching it for at least 15 years and have a product ready to go.

Resizing
I believe the most complete solution is a full unix environment with shell piping the image stream. so i make https://bash.rocks, which is a web frontend backed by a unix environment.
Snippets:
1. Resizing with imagemagick: https://bash.rocks/Gxlg31/3
2. Resizing and convert to webp: https://bash.rocks/7J1jgB/1
After creating the snippet, you could either use GET https://bash.rocks/0Be95B (query parameters become environment variable) or POST https://bash.rocks/jJggWJ (request body become stdin).
It's not hard to roll your backend like this for private usage (simply exec from node). I'm also working on an open source release.

Prediction: this is going to kill a lot of American jobs short term. It may or may not be good for America long-term, but in the short term it's a huge disruption, and in disruptions jobs get lost quickly and gained slowly.

Example: right now, an American firm builds widgets in Mexico with Canadian resources and sells to all three countries. In the future, the American firm builds in America and sells only to Americans. A Cana-Mexican firm builds in Mexico with Canadian resources and sells to Cana-Mex. You can argue which is better for America & Cana-Mex. But there's no doubt that the transitional period will suck for all.

In the transitional period the Cana-Mexican firm hasn't been founded yet, nor the American factory built, so the pre-demise scenario continues. But now prices double for everybody due to increased tariffs, non-tariff barriers and currency fluctuation. So sales drop through the floor or are lost to Chinese competitors. Lose-lose-lose.
I second this. Just help your friend help you.
I had issues with depression when I was younger. Self-harm, severe depression, suicide attempts, the whole gamut. Wasn't hospitalised, but that was the next step.

Looking back on it from my thirties, I've come to the conclusion that most of my problem was disturbed sleep patterns, and the rest was unhealthy thought patterns that became self-perpetuating.

Medication didn't help me in the slightest, just made me worse. Getting some sleep and engaging with the world around me is what made all the difference. I'm skeptical of the value of anti-depressants, and some of the side-effects are deeply troubling.

The problem is that when I was in the midst of a depressive episode, I wasn't capable of fixing those things. Telling a depressed person that they just need to think happier thoughts, get some sleep, take a bath, go for a walk is utterly pointless.
Why does it matter how efficient each individual packet is, in terms of overhead vs payload? If I send N bytes in M packets the total transfer overhead and efficiency are the same regardless of how uniform the packet sizes are.

The only problem I see is that the larger fragments are more likely to get refragmented, while uniform fragments are more likely to pass through subsequent MTU bottlenecks.
I think we should still strive to move towards being that way. Greed and maliciousness breed greed and maliciousness and it’s be good to root them out wherever we can.

Classic example is doing a startup (and failing to take off). You have a very large nominal wealth, but you practically bankrupted yourself, because as a founder you probably spent all your money to try to raise more funds, or on sales, or on product development.

Yes, the Forbes list is different.

And yes, erikb's point about being a billionare is strange, because not many people would consider anyone a billionare just because someone funded a company with nominal value 1B$.

However, erikb is right, that rich people have cheap access to enormously powerful success multipliers. (They can very realistically - almost literally - get a cheap loan from any of their dad's neighbour, or get in touch with anyone, and so on.)
It being an ad has nothing to do with whether they're working on AR or not.

They have tons of money, they know that AR will be an important battleground, and AR is related to VR.

They would be incredibly foolish NOT to at least try to get into AR.

Show HN: Pythonrc, now with ability to load virtualenv specific customizations
This makes me wonder, how could one implement something like this over a service like Whatsapp?
I've submitted this before a couple of times over the last couple of years but re-submitting now because I've added a few interesting (at least I think so) enhancements. The '\l' command to list the code for objects and now the '\e' command will also let you ^edit^ objects (ie: open the source file for objects in the editor). Also the ability to load and pre-populate your sessions when working in virtualenvs.

Would love to hear feedback or ideas. Hope at least some people find it as useful as I do.
Maybe I’m not aware but I’m pretty used to just trusting large news outlets with good credibility on things like this
Odd thing to say, the closest the article gets to this supposed BBC agenda is:

> "The possibility that some of those in the graves were Muslim cannot be completely ruled out,"

Then they say it's more likely it was some much more limited cultural influence. Then they talk about trade, in the context of the wide dispersion of Muslim coins. Then they say that the inscription isn't right, so probably it was an incorrect copy by whoever produced the fabric. The article is entirely reasonable, if it is a matter of ideology clouding judgment perhaps you should look at yourself rather than the BBC.
It's fairly idiomatic so you get used to it but if you prefer something a little more C-ish you can write it like that (as a side note the code in TFA forgets to import std::env and BufWriter):

use std::env::args;

fn main() {

let expletive =
match args().nth(1) {
Some(arg) => arg,
None => "y".into(),
};

loop {
println!("{}", expletive);
}
}

This is the equivalent to the unoptimized C version. I would argue that it's a little more readable too, substituting "loop" instead of the idiomatic "for(;;)" and the more verbose match syntax instead of the ternary (the terser rust equivalent being the `unwrap_or` you seemed to dislike).

Personally I think I'd use the "unwrap_or" version, when you're familiar with the language it's completely transparent, easier to parse and expresses intent better I think. For an outsider I can see why it would look like a strange incantation though (but the same could be said about ternaries or CL's "do" construct for instance).

The only thing I'd deem inelegant here is the `"y".into()`. It's probably not obvious what it does and why it's necessary to somebody not familiar with Rust.
Why? Because it doesn't follow the dogma of compartmentalizing everything for "maximum reusability"?

These "golden age" men of the Greek myths also lived in palaces (palace of agamemnon) and practiced agriculture. In these myths some typical topoi are also cattle raids, palace intrigues and territorial disputes. These are not the hallmarks of hunter-gatherer societies. These myths should be treated as such, myths. Maybe they have a little historical truth in it, since the mycenean people (precursor to the archaic greek civilisation) definitly had palaces and an elaborate trade network spanning the eastern mediterranean. These are more advanced feats than pre-archaic greek civilisation, wich developed into smaller tribal and rural communities at the time before homer wrote his epics.

CBR wasn't helpful for me at all.

The only thing I really do on that list is avoid alcohol. If I am in a good swing, I can sleep at regular times, but I don't exercise. I eat whatever is around really, and in severe down times I've been kicked out of college or lost jobs because I couldn't leave bed to eat or use the bathroom until it was unbearable, let alone leave my house. I also normally ate around a meal a day, at 5pm or so and might have had some apple slices, grapes, or something similar before.

The only thing that has ever helped is medication. I have bouts of severe paranoia & hallucinations, but haven't mentioned it to anyone. Lamotrigine & Methylphenidate have been the most helpful, taking me from 5-15% functioning on an average day to 80% or higher. That's worked for me for 5-6 months, but over a month I noticed that my methylphenidate became less effective, and to improve it I had to redose during the day. This was a self-medicating (horrible, i know) method, but then it came to me running out of it for the rest of the month (10 or so days.) So I was low functioning then, but I still had my lamotrigine, so I was around 30%. Then I got my refill and started my day out, and ended up feeling nothing... So I redosed, and still after an appropriate amount of time felt nothing. I kept redosing for the next 40 hours until I had taken 500+ mgs of methylphenidate. I even spent time researching and turned it into IR methylphenidate, and even boofed 81mg of it at one point. Not my greatest hour. I finally passed out at about 60 hours or so, thank god. Then I woke up and realized what happened. That was yesterday. I'm still trying to find out what to do. I've been looking for people with my combination of bipolar II and adhd for input, but I fear that with my hallucinations and paranoia that have come and gone my entire life, there may be more wrong. I don't see an issue with upping my dosage of methylphenidate, but swapping to another med is what I feel may be a better option, but I also fear that my condition will worsen, as only the combination of methylphenidate & lamotrigine helps. I've been considering dexmethylphenidate, but definitely am trying to find more answers.

There are a lot of neural networks, each with their own represential capabilities.

+ Reservoir computing, ESN, LSM, only combines quenched dynamics.

+ Adaptive resonance theory. Addresses catastrophic forgetting and allows someone to learn from one example.

+ Bottleneck networks. Forcing networks to represent things in a compressed sense. Almost like making up their own symbols.

+ Global workspace theory. Winner take all mechanisms that allow modules to compete.

+ Polychronization. Izhikevich shows how dynamic representations are possible thanks to delays.

+ Attractor networks. Use of dynamical system theory to have population of neurons perform computational tasks.

That neural networks are too fragile is a statement that's a bit too general.
I don't see an overlap between VR and AR, in terms of use-case or technology.

I don't get why they'd start competing against Microsoft when they're already being dominated in their own VR niche.

It almost looks concerning.

My counter to this is, without Google's "algorithm" the search results would not be great/find what you want. And in this case websites want to volunteer/agree to index their site for visibility but then you still have to visit the site because conveniently The site summary ends before the content that you want. I don't know how I would find websites unless referred on some website.

I kinda felt the same way about how Netflix started out but I think they probably had a deal to pay a portion of revenue from dvd's that they rented out.
Not only that, the interface makes it impossible to see even images at actual size unless you use the DOM inspector. For large images with small text this is unusable.

I think along very similar lines, except I don't believe capitalism (or generally, the market) is a benevolent AI. I believe it's an Unfriendly AI, in the Yudkowsky/Bostrom sense. That is, it's a strong optimization system that does not care about individuals and societies the way individual humans care. It just does what it does.

So far we've enjoyed the power of capitalism because its incentives were mostly aligned with ours. Our technological civilization is a direct result of that! However, I think those incentives are increasingly becoming misaligned, and that it's the source of many of current woes. In fact, capitalism is slowly becoming more dangerous than it is helpful.
