I believe one of the problems there is an inaccessibility problem. Atleast for the mailing list.

Most mailing list archives lack fulltext search and a modern looking design (I'm not even asking for an SPA or anything JS, just a tiny bit of CSS could make a lot of difference).

It's also not as easy to onboard, integrate and host mailing lists.

Ideally a mailing list could be hosted with a few button clicks, people could join a mailing list like they join newsletters (instead of having to send an email to the mailing list application with some command in it) and people should be able to anonymously send emails.

Plus points if you can, optionally, manage emails like github issues and properly keep track of bug reports.
Some other things from my personal experience:

- don’t offer help and suggestions and advice

I hate and hated it when my friends would ask if I tried meditating, or say maybe start running, hit a gym, etc. Yes those things all make sense, and may have been proven to work, but here’s the thing: those things all take effort, effort that I just didn’t have to give. Yes, even the simple act of “sitting down and breathing a few minutes for meditation” required a monumental amount of effort. Does it make sense? No. But depression is not rational.

What was worse, was that these advice and suggestions weren’t new to me. I’ve done the research. I’ve googled “how to not be depressed”. I know that exercise is good for me etc. You telling me makes me feel like you think I’m stupid, or that you think you’re so smart for thinking up that advice, and so on and so on. Is my reaction like this warranted? No. But again, depression is not rational.

Instead of “maybe you should go running, there’s a lot of couch to 5k apps.” You say, “hey let’s start running together, every day after work at 6pm. In 5 weeks we’ll be able to run a 5k together!”

etc

It's in here, seems to be from interviews in Humo and Q magazine (never heard of the former, remember the latter from the 90s):

http://diffuser.fm/radiohead-fitter-happier/

"I'm not standing behind the lyrics any more. Sometimes your ideas get entangled with other ideas and then you have to apologise for the original idea because it doesn't make sense any more. That's what happened with 'Fitter Happier.' Now, I listen to the piano part."

The ending line is pretty harsh on people who just want to improve their lives ("A pig in a cage on antibiotics"), I've always had mixed feelings about the song when I've heard it when trying to fix a (perceived?) problem in my life.

It's a a bit of a childish view on adults, every lyric writer will look back on his teenage/early 20s thoughts and see that growing older has suddenly made you understand your elders and cringe at how ridiculous your views actually were when you're young, immortal and carefree. When it turns out youth doesn't last, we all die and mummy and daddy stop paying at some point.
The reason this is published in an ancillary journal is that it is a polemic that pushes an agenda beyond where the data support.

Much of what is written here is accepted widely: that many types of fats are not really the issue driving heart disease; that fructose and other sugars are problematic; that lifestyle interventions can have a real impact; that stenting stable atherosclerosis has no benefit; and that atherothrombosis is the killer.

The ongoing effort by these authors to dismiss the LDL hypothesis weakens this paper. That LDL is a primary contributor to cardiovascular disease, myocardial infarction, and death is supported by human genetic data and by hundreds of thousands of individuals followed in clinical trials, as well as millions of people in post marketing monitoring. The casual dismissal in this article by referring to low quality, confounded evidence (observational studies) is not responsible and it taints an otherwise useful summary.
for me the camera is one major reason to upgrade every 1.5-2 years. But I buy a phone(asus) that is at least 50% cheaper than most of the high end phones so I figure I'm coming out ahead. They probably have better cameras but mine has been good enough until the next refresh cycle
There is an awesome video from a suicide helpline first responder at DefCon [0] on possible ways to speak to a friend who is feeling suicidal.

Firstly to be clear - this talk is not for talking to people who are literally about to commit suicide, it's for if you've got a friend who seems very depressed and might be heading down a path to suicide.

Obviously this is more extreme than just depression, but it is a great talk about how geeks can build trust and talk about difficult subjects with their friends. It gives a framework that you can assess how depressed/at risk your friend is.

I did know a friend who was very reclusive after getting fired from his first job after university. He had no job and did practically nothing for about 7 years despite lots of conversations with his friends to try and make progress. He eventually and slowly turned things round getting a job and is now happily married. So it can turn out for the better and it can also take a very long time. So be prepared to help for the long-term over years and don't expect one magic solution. One difference to your friend though is that the parents of my friend did not give up on him.

I don't think this paper was even about replication.

A replication is when one person/group does something, they write down instructions for someone else to do the same thing, and then the results are compared. Is there a single mention of this happening in that paper? I expected a table of such results.

Ie, replication is about doing some very specific thing, instead I see a bunch of vague stuff like "abnormal is normal"...
A key point missed in this discussion is that Intel needs high volume through its fabs to pay for their high capital investment requirements.

If it doesn't have the consumer CPU volumes (notebook, desktop, mobile) then production costs for server chips will be much higher, and it won't have those nice margins.
> "If tomorrow 2 engineers, one from semi side, and one fromwebdev, will knock at the door of CEO with "I found a way to do things A and B 250 times better, but you have to scrap half of your business plan," a webdev will be heard, and semi guys not."

What are you basing this assumption on? Have you worked for one of these companies? Do you know anyone that does?

Also, regarding Microsoft, any suggestion that they're focused on acquiring web devs is clearly short sighted. If you want a better idea of its priorities, I'd suggest taking a look at which sectors it earns its main revenue in, as well as taking a look at the work being done at Microsoft Research.
Oooh, so you're simply unaware and your bias prompts you to assume i'm making shit up. Here, let me fix that.

Watch exactly one minute after this timestamp, pay attention to the screen at the right edge of the video, in the middle: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wbSwFU6tY1c&t=30m33s

Drone ship feed static for a while, then smoke on deck clears, no core visible, deck empty. Both go "oh." and after a pause: "we're waiting to hear what happens. [...] we'll let you know as soon as we find out" and "we'll [...] know [...] whether it's standing".

It is clear during all of this that they're looking at the same video feed as is in the background, because the timing of their reactions is exactly in synch.

They saw it didn't land, they found out immediately and didn't let "us" know. Instead they claimed it might be possible it is standing despite seeing the empty deck.

PS: You could've asked instead of engaging in cheer pressure.
Shouldn't RUST_LOG use "microservice_rs" instead of "microservice"? the "_rs" is a crate name.

Another thing, in a make_post_response stub function I think it's better to use StatusCode::NotImplemented instead of NotFound (when trying this code I thought the match did not work correctly as everything returned NotFound).

I didn't say federal government, now did I? My point is that when people don't respect the authorities, we refer to this as the "legitimacy of the government" and because no state was specified I went with US, because all states and their governments are part of the US. So yes I anticipated your semantic quibble.
I absolutely second treating it like a regular medical problem and helping him find professional help.* I'd suggest looking for a good psychologist before considering psychiatry, just because meds are a much bigger long term commitment.

Another suggestion is exercise and meditation. Nothing strenous: if you can get him to even take a walk with you a couple times a week it'll make a difference. As for meditation, even a little bit can have a huge impact and I reccomend the excellent Headspace app.

We’re already keeping phones until they break, by handing them down through the family. I’ve bought 5 iPhones and all but 2 of them are still in use. In fact the second one, a 3GS, was only fully retired at the beginning of last year.

The upgrade cycle has really just been a process of filling up the market. In fact I’d argue there are still a lot of old devices still in use beyond an ideal lifespan. There’s still going to be a much quicker refresh cycle than desktops for a while, but they’re likely to converge gradually.

What we might see is high end users keeping their flagship for longer, and refresh phones ‘downstream’ in the family to more recent midrange devices rather than passing on their own device and getting a new flagship. In fact, that’s what I just did for my teenage daughters.

So would there be a use-case for a combined bot+app that you can connect some storage to (S3, FTP) which archives all channel message history in a searchable form? It could make it visible to search engines, searchable by humans, linkable to people outside of slack, and shouldn't take up very much storage space.

Should be quite trivial to build also, and cheap enough to run as a bit of charity if projects pay for their own storage.

Wow, it's pretty fun to read a completely positively spun article about something that's been heavily criticized locally.

The highway in question has been a weird-ass pet project since the 60's. It's been routinely denied and shelved many times, but after Stockholm implemented congestion tolls in 2006, it had a resurgence.

Originally it was all aboveground and bridges, but the reason it's now morphed into the longest road tunnel project in Sweden, is because the response to every small NIMBY protest has been "fine, we'll dig it down, but it'll cost more". Note that it's still aboveground in some places, and in something that I'm sure is pure coincidence, those areas are among the least affluent residential areas of Stockholm. Note that everyone living above the tunnels will still get to enjoy years of underground rock blasting, I'm sure that'll be fun.

And since almost the entire highway is now in a tunnel, and since it's going to be the longest in Sweden, the budget has gone up dramatically. How to finance it? Oh, our glorious politicians decided to use money from the congestion tolls. Never fucking mind that the initial promise of those were that the funds were going to be used solely for public transportation projects and improvements - things that would actually solve congestion. But all of that is now put on hold for the next 10-20 years, because this one road eats all the budget.

Yet another criticism is that the highway doesn't really solve the problem, because there's actually very little existing traffic that goes between the points it will connect. Truck transports from the south of Sweden to north of Stockholm take different routes already, they don't go through Stockholm. So you won't get rid of all the heavy traffic that's currently congesting the E4, because most of that is actually going into or out of Stockholm. All the ports of Stockholm are over on the east side of the city. Yes, if you live in the far west suburbs of Stockholm, you now get an easy way of going to the southern suburbs, good for you, but that's going to increase total traffic, not decrease it.

But the most annoying thing about the project is that in this latest round where a ton of challenges forced it underground into tunnels, which resulted in significant increases in cost and time, noone has re-evaluated what the traffic situation in Stockholm is going to be like in 2026 when it's estimated to be completed. (Note: Of course it won't be completed in time or on budget, so 2026 is highly optimistic already). Here on Hacker News there's regularly articles about our glorious new electrically powered autonomous rideshare future of transportation, but this highway project doesn't take any of that into consideration. They're just assuming that traffic will increase like it has the past few decades, they're assuming it's going to be 100% ICE-powered human-driven cars. And yet you have articles like this which heaps praise on the environmental concerns and solutions of yet another ridiculously expensive highway that noone really needs or wants.

It's very easy to be afraid of approaching or pushing someone in that state to see you, out of fear of pushing them away. Two weeks ago I lost a friend (who was in an eerily similar situation to your friend) to suicide. I am finding it incredibly hard to forgive myself for not doing more, or pushing harder.

I fell into the trap of thinking that being more persistent in outreach would ultimately hurt more than it helped.

If you're in a society with suicide helplines, or social services that are affordable, I'd recommend reaching out to them for advice on how to get through to your friend. It's impossible to know how close to the edge he might be, but members of those organizations who speak to depressed or suicidal people on a daily basis may be able to provide you with advice on how to handle outreach, especially since he may not be reaching out to them directly.

It's unlikely that he will be open to engaging in a group situation. Reach out one-on-one, or visit in person.

Don't make the same mistake I did. My friend secluded himself out of the dumb idea that time apart would make his eventual suicide easier on his friends. It didn't, and there's nothing I can do now.

Bait and switch is a bit harsh, I guess most of their users don't use IRC and it's a huge waste of resource and time for them. Even Open Source projects drop support for old tech like debian dropped support for old SPARC architecture in 2015. Of course the difference is that with Open Source anyone can pick up where they left but that's an issue with any proprietary/close source software and it's a risk one takes when going with a solution such as Slack.

There's legal precedent. If one dev proves their copyright was infringed by failure to comply with the contractual obligations set through the OSS license, then the court more than likely will find for every other dev too. The "bounty hunter" will get paid the damages against them, not the damages against the community, there's no reason to disperse them.

I have never asked this before, but Lua seems to have a couple of different languages implemented in itself, almost making me think of how JavaScript has a similar offering. Has anyone compared JavaScript and Lua in the language building regard? I'm curious to see what the most commonly used JS / Lua features are when designing a new language on top of those two languages. I know some languages have features that help you to build a new language (or it seemed to be like that) I think Java / C# do but I don't remember the names of the classes for that stuff, last I saw it was many years ago. Also of course I know Lisp lets you get there too, if I were to try to create my own language I'd try building my own lisp as a first project, and then go from there to try and make something different.
$4/mo doesn't include the cost of monitoring and maintenance that come with running your own instance. When you can't amortize those costs across a large fleet of instances, Lambda is often much cheaper when looking at the total cost. Also, to get anywhere near the same reliability expectations, you'd need at least 2 instances and an ELB. Granted that will be able to handle a lot more traffic, but it's still not fair to compare Lambda to a single instance.
I can't speak to Woebot specifically, but I'd exercise caution when investigating chat based therapy. I feel like if you care enough to ask on HN, you checking in on him would quickly surpass what a bot could do.

As for chat based therapy with humans behind them, I'd advise steering clear of them completly:

- They explictly don't provide professional care or verify the credentials of their staff.

- They're incentivised, not to give you the best care, but to keep you in the system for as long as possible since you getting better = churn.

- I believe that getting sub-standard care from systems like these might dissuade your friend from seeking the actual, professional help he might need.
