Psychological treatments like exposure therapy are highly effective in treating PTSD, panic disorder and phobia. A significant proportion of people with severe anxiety-related disorders can be completely cured in a matter of weeks. It doesn't work for everyone, but thousands of lives have been transformed by psychotherapy.

The best available evidence suggests that psychological treatments are equally effective as drug treatments for most common psychiatric disorders. Psychological therapies are generally orders of magnitude more expensive than drug treatments, so unfortunately they aren't as widely available.

Psychiatry is an incredibly challenging field and there are a lot of things we just don't know. Drug companies might have a strong incentive to keep selling you pills, but insurers have an equally strong incentive to cure you outright. Single-payer healthcare systems like the British NHS have a huge incentive to use the best, most cost-effective treatments available. It's just an unfortunate fact that we can't fix everyone. There is no magic wand to cure all human misery and there's no conspiracy to keep people sick.

What government "power" is required to 'encourage competitors'? If there is business opportunity the market will attract participants all by itself without any need for government intervention.

In my experience, government incentives are generally misguided and force mis-allocation of resources. That is to say the government is distorting the market to favor activity that wouldn't otherwise be attractive to a business.
Tone deaf to what? Oh yeah it was absolutely the right thing to happen, it wasn't working. That's not quite the same as "deserved to let go". I suspect any senior developer person with an architectural remit and fair breadth of experience would have the same problems there.
> [Most people not CEOs → finance, inheritance, start COs]

Hmmm...I actually mentioned finance and inheritance. Both are at current scales arguably worse. Finance has devolved into rent-seeking that leeches off the real economy and caused the 2008 crisis, with virtually no consequences. Unlimited inheritance creates oligarchies with wealth and power that hasn't actually contributed to society.

Er, no. Please read up on behavioral economics. If rewards are too lopsided, the game too obviously unfair, people stop playing. That's a really, really, really bad outcome. One we want to avoid at nearly any cost.

Although I agree Netflix is more at fault here, I think gmail could also make you aware if an email is sent to a non-canonical address. They do have the canonical version to compare to, whether that's with dots or without.

I also have to put forward that if you have trouble telling people your email address then you probably chose a bad address. You didn't have to put in the dots, and he isn't actually suggesting that they get rid of them now anyway. I point this out only because it means your use case doesn't mean it's an "important and useful feature".
Such changes based on the unique environmental pressures of species living on islands comes under the heading of Foster's Rule:

That's hardly the reason for why antidepressants cause what's known as "dependency." I don't think there is malice or nefarious nature to the state of drugs in psychiatry - it's moreso that almost all the drugs that have non-subtle effects, also come with dependency. And thus, doctors' want to prescribe something that has immediacy, because most patients will have doubt and abandonment of a treatment plan if it isn't strong enough to cause immediate change.

But I would agree that the field of psychiatry (not psychology which doesn't require a medical license) has it in their interest to say that antidepressants aren't _narcotics_. And they aren't. But the cruel thing is that the difference between a narcotic and a dependency-causing-drug is blurred.

For example, Wellbutrin is a norepinephrine aka noradrenaline agonist and reuptake inhibitor. It's a stimulant - to call it an antidepressant is a bit of an ongoing joke. If someone has no energy and lacks willpower, any stimulant will get them to do things they might not otherwise have done.

The reason Wellbutrin isn't considered a narcotic is mainly because being full of adrenaline is often a shitty experience - whereas being full of a 10%/90% adrenaline/dopamine mix is quite pleasurable (ADHD stimulants - amphetamines/phenidates.) But it's entirely unscientific to say that an antidepressant cannot be addictive to a person that likes the effects more than the average neurotypical person. Just google Wellbutin abuse and you'll find a ton of personal stories.

And then lets talk about dependency. Dependency is just a rebound effect by the body to adjust its endogenous feedback in order to find homeostasis again. It's why most drugs that have large immediate "gratifying" or noticable psychological effects, also come with a downregulation in the same areas by the brain and body. So when you stop taking the drug, your body is actually BELOW baseline and it will take quite a bit of time before you are back to baseline. In some cases of extreme use, the brain can be structurally changed and permanent damage can result. See "parkinsons from stimulant abuse" for a typical example.

Dependency and addiction only have a difference in a psychological way. The physical withdrawal and rebound effects are mutual. Don't be fooled when you are told that an antidepressant drug is not a "narcotic" and isn't habit forming. It is a lie.

The only psychological drugs that are truly therapeautic are upregulators like Cordyalis, known as Yan Hu Suo in Chinese medicine. It causes neurogenesis and upregulates dopamine. It is quite a beneficial drug to consume when withdrawing from any type of stimulant or dopamine agonist.

The Kibbutz wasn't really communism not in what we would define as political / national communism, it was a cooperative and there is a good reason why virtually all of them were "privatized" by the mid 90's.

And yes you hit the point I was trying to make, no one forces you to live under capitalism even in a capitalist country it's perfectly legal for you to go and live in a commune it is not however true the other way around.

I don't know how it's implemented, but it's definitely the case -- I can currently log into two different accounts with the same email, depending solely on which password I use. I have a deliberately typo in my name on one of them so I can easily tell which I'm logged into.
This is one of those problems that is just hard enough that everyone feels it is useful to solve and just easy enough that everyone can solve it. Hence the dozens or even hundreds of independent solutions. For some reason I never end up using any of them!
Yep, same here. I've got a "DJ" in the US, but also a guy in India. The Indian guy is always getting legal threats for not paying his phone bill.. I feel a bit bad that he's not even getting the emails, but I have no idea how to actually contact either of these people...

No, you shouldn't. Different email providers use different characters to allow "subaddressing" or "tagging" and the presence of those characters doesn't mean that any subaddressing will be done.

Preparation for Anesthesia: Part 1 of 2
I started using Meteor in 2014. I was active for two years, posting frequently on their forums, writing packages, building MVPs, etc. As I started building more things with Meteor, I realized that it doesn't scale well. It's great for proof-of-concept work. Frameworks can be incredibly productive for low-scale work, but they are painful to scale. No framework that can be simultaneously optimized for every use-case. Now, I always DIY with a router like Express.

Meteor's problems were rooted in its real-time protocol, DDP, which had some problems. Firstly, everything is real-time by default. It's better to minimize the amount of real-time components in your application as there are very few things that need to be real-time. Secondly, the pub-sub caching mechanism made it infeasible for situations with many concurrent users. I was able to get around this by proxying some of their internal functions.

Significant people in the ecosystem started leaving (e.g. Arunoda), probably for the same reasons. AFAIK, it's still the best JavaScript framework out there for prototyping and MVPs. Their accounts system makes whipping up a user-driven application trivial. MDG (the phenomenal team behind Meteor) is likely focusing their efforts on Apollo now, because they understand DDP's shortcomings. If you're interested in Meteor, I suggest looking into Apollo.
Seroquel is part of a family of drugs (antipsychotics) which have some of the worst long term adverse effects of all psychiatric drugs. Everything from tardive dyskenisia to enlargement of the ventricles of the brain are routinely observed over decades of use, and that’s not even mentioning adverse effects which appear almost immediately. In general though, these drugs have little or nothing to do with antidepressants, SSRI’s or anything most poeple will ever take.

Of course the adverse effects of psyshcosis and untreated psychotic illness are much worse, including homelessness and death. So while these drugs are undeniably difficult to live with, people who have been prescribed the family including Seroquel generally really need them to function. All of which is to say that the struggles of people on neuroleptic therapy are generally very different from what’s being discussed in the article here.
Preparation for Anesthesia: Part 2 of 2
So I wasn't able to get this out of my mind and went to order 3 new 1200P panels today and actually backed out at the last moment after further consideration. I think it would drive me nuts to effectively have a 21.6" panel in 16:9 optimized content, which is everything. Which would bother me more than having the additional 10% viewspace for work. Especially considering I have 3 panels, plenty of workspace.

I think at this point in the market, I'm going to stick with 16:9 native resolutions. If I do any swaps, I'll probably try out dual 27" 4K panels (also 16:9, great for 1080P content), with one mounted below the other. That'll be pretty nice in time as 4K becomes better supported.

sure, but you can make the same point about any drugs that people develop physical dependencies on. aside from alcohol and benzodiazepines, you will survive. antidepressant withdrawal varies a lot from person to person though. the brain zaps can definitely be severe enough that it becomes unsafe to drive a car, for instance.

this I can certainly agree with, for all but the most severe cases. it's almost never worth the common side effects, let alone the rare ones.

Saifedean Ammous: The Bitcoin Standard – The Austrian School Case for Bitcoin
Depends on the workload and the database. Many workloads on modern hardware are more often limited by memory and network bandwidth than I/O per se. (This partly depends on database kernel architecture and presumes a modern design. Some database engines, particularly older designs, may have other bottlenecks.) Also, for scale-out databases you can compile the query once and ship the binary or IR to every relevant node, which amortizes the compilation cost.

For classic OLTP workloads, JIT compilation doesn't carry much benefit because you are (typically) directly targeting a few records. The primary benefit is for constraint matching in page scan operators. I would say the sweet spot is for low-latency operational analytics i.e. queries in mixed workload environments; the average dwell time of a query on a particular page has a big impact. These workloads (basically "real-time analytics") are increasingly popular.

Before I had experience designing systems with JIT compiled queries I worried quite a bit about overhead. The people with expertise that assured me the overhead would be pretty small if implemented well turned out to be correct, which allows you to JIT a lot of operations for material benefit.
Now we're back to the "no true scotsman" argument, a communist government is not a contradiction unless you go by the most extreme anarchist interpretations of communist doctrine.

IDK about papers per se, but as a computer scientist who took classes in bioinformatics, there are parallels. At the base level, cells are machines for constructing proteins, and information on that process is encoded in DNA. Silicon uses 2 bits, DNA has 4 base pairs. Those base pairs groups in sets of 3 called a codon, kinda similar to a byte. Word size is normally a multiple of 8 for computers, but the 6 bit word in DNA is more than sufficient to cover the 20 amino acids, leaving room for both a stop sequence, and some rudimentary error correction -- a mistake in copying DNA somewhere might not end up changing the resulting protein.

There's also a level of programmatic structure in terms of transcription promotors and gotos, and probably some level of conditionals. DNA is also special in that it can be read forwards or backwards, and the base pairing means you always have two potentially transcriptable sequences, each starting from one of 3 offsets. Imagine if busybox implemented all of coreutils in one binary by shifting the word alignment 1 bit to produce a completely different program.

Finally, at the intracellular level, we have a whole host of message passing between cells using hormones and other signaling molecules, and organs like the pancreas that try to regulate a system using them.

As far as 'computation' I don't think the system is Turing complete, and the systems aren't designed to answer decision problems, just construct things, possibly in response to an environmental factor.
I think any in TypeScript's context means "not in the type system", and all type rules bounce off it. So if k's type is any, and you type k.foo, it doesn't bother checking it. I assume the same applies to any null checking.
The bug is in humans. Heck, I regularly come across people who think the case in an email address matters! While there is no bug in Gmail, that is irrelevant because you have to deal with the reality of how people use your product. Its basic engineering. Standards are simply a means for interoperability. In this case, the dots don't matter much for that goal.

I’ve worked on a similar tool in the past called Charlatan [1] (no I didn’t choose that name), but it implemented its own SQL-like language and was extensible to support any file type.

Its key difference with TextQL and similar alternatives is it works on streams instead of importing everything in a SQLite then querying it. It seems strange to read a whole file in memory then perform a `SELECT` query on it when you could just run that query while reading the file. That means a much lower memory footprint and faster execution, but on the other hand you can only use the subset of SQL that’s implemented.

Only starting with VS2015 (and then maybe even update 2 IIRC) we had what we can call C++ 11 (for the purpose of not having to port code for it, or such port to be easy, so missing 1 or 2 language and library features can be OK, but missing half of them: less so).
