Mental health organisations see reporting on the "cause" of a suicide as unhelpful, even when there is a note. Not that their guidelines are normally adhered to.

Adding to this comment -

data = data if data is not None else []

(is)

data = data if data else []

(is)

data = data or []

which means you either did:

data = []

(or)

data = None

The line above is wrong - you always define your variables to match your structures properly during your __init__.

For all intents and purposes, [] is the same as None when you're attempting a true/false if statement (of course it's not 100% but I'm trying to make the point).

Having a Null coalescing operator is a cheap and crappy way to escape proper variable definition and proper statement resolution, and it means you don't understand what your code actually does when reaching the compiler, or behavior in the memory. PEP 505 should be rejected.

Right, we noticed similar findings. We do automatic punctuation now, and do diarization when there is more than one channel in the audio file. We're launching diarization on single channel audio with multiple speakers very soon. We're currently focused on improving some of our customization features, and then we plan to ship single channel diarization.

Thanks for sharing your results! We have more samples here if you want to do more comparisons: https://blog.assemblyai.com/2018/08/09/cutting-edge-phone-ca...
I just re-read your message, and thought I should clarify: The client has two ratchets going. One is an opportunistic DH ratchet, and the other is a hash-based one that provides forward secrecy if the contents of the last DH ratchet was not intercepted and decrypted. Which, if you have verified the keys and no device key change has happened, it hasn't.

If you have a successful compromise of one message, a missed message is all it takes for the ratchet to self-heal and you have lost the ability to decrypt future messages. It is PFS+ in a sense.

There are normally many people on the verge of a discovery. The rewards should go to those who are able to effectively leverage their technology into useful products. Not artificially retard progress so that the 'first' person can milk the rewards.

Patents have a long history of abuse and very little evidence that they drive innovation. The case has to be made that their benefit outweighs their harm. My argument is that it doesn't.
Oli here from the team building Memex.

Yeah indeed, having stuff in the cloud is not ideal when it comes to privacy and centralisation.

One of our core values is privacy and data ownership. So we do our best to make our business not dependent on (analysing and selling) your data, and instead provide you with service value you're willing to pay for.
We are built with interoperability in mind, that will allow you to switch providers of Memex and Memex Cloud without frictions, in case there are breaches of trust, or simply better service.

We follow these values by currently building for offline first usage, where your data is locally indexed and searchable primarily.
With our search technology you'll be able to get up to 5 years of your research done in the browser.

For the cloud part, it is unfortunately not yet possible to do performant search on encrypted data, otherwise it would not be such a big issue to have your index in the cloud. Equally unfortunate is that it comes with a lot of drawbacks to replicate all your data on all nodes, as opposed to have a central point to query. Especially when we are looking at phone usages.
There it is really not practical, so there is a need to have some sort of cloud - UX is still very important. Most people can't be bothered with the drawbacks of decentralised and distributed systems (yet). We hope to get that switch in multiple smaller steps that guide (non-technical) users through a smooth transition to a Memex system that is as distributed as possible. (Check out Dat https://datproject.org/, a technology we likely use to make that first step possible)

And as you already noted, this stuff will be self-hostable. We see ourselves as a service provider first and want to serve people who can't/don't want to run their own server.
A bit like the Wordpress model.

But where does censorship starts? Google already have to comply with local laws everywhere it operates. Is the right to be forgotten censorship? Is removing piratebay from the listing censorship? Or does it have to do with anything that offends a US liberal political stance? Then is Google’s mission really meant to be a propaganda tool for a particular political viewpoint?
I do. I removed all the integrated search engines from FF.

You are right, Mozilla needs to pay the bills. I accept that and don't hold a grudge. But they are not getting anything from me. I use FF to get away from the internet business model.
I loved Top of the Lake. It was a very relatable TV show for me as a New Zealander. That kind of thing does actually happen in rural NZ, although I would've said it's stereotypically more a Northland than a Southland thing.
I wonder how such a thing would affect people; currently, people change their memories depending on how they feel and what's happened recently and what they hope or expect for the future and how they remembered it the last time (I'm not convinced this is inherently a bad thing). Being unable to do that, being constantly confronted with recorded history differing with our own recollections; what would be the consequences of that?
I think it also depends where you are. Seattle is way worse for people bringing dogs than Germany or UK, and way more people have emotional support animals, whatever the fuck that is.

Actually the solution was already tried and tested by American cities. It's called diversifying the economic base. Instead of relying on 1 mammoth company, try to develop and sustain multiple smaller ones.

All American cities that recovered from the '70s-'80s downturn, and even from the 2008 crisis were the ones with a higher number of smaller employers, startups, etc. The ones that diversified. Because they are more resilient to one company's failure.

Not a single game I know drives home the concept of "technical debt" as much as Factorio does. Every time I want to automate manufacturing of a new thing, I end up wondering whether I should do a quick&dirty hack on existing pipelines, refactor half of my base, or just build a new one elsewhere...

(And you can't just always keep choosing "build a new one elsewhere", because this increases a literal attack surface and invites literal bugs.)

I can't prove it, but I really don't think that programming helps one to become more empathic. In my case, after a long programming session, I need about an hour to snap out of my analytical state of mind, and get my social/verbal skills back to their original level.

> So it's not as simple as "correlation does not equal causation," but there can be BOTH correlation and causation at work when you exercise and feel better.

Basically it's a feedback loop, one that you have to build up gradually. Got even a slight raise in mood and somehow feeling like you maybe could work out a little bit? Just do 2 push-ups, or 5 abs, or run 20 meters, or whatever! Congratulations, you worked out, so allow yourself to feel good about having done it (vs not doing it) instead of focusing on "this is ridiculous, I could/should have done more". Grow up from there, bit by bit. Building some form of regularity is more important than any form of intensity, because gradually this erodes the mental barrier between "I think about doing it" and "doing it". Don't even put up a schedule because that's already mental friction, just try to think of some moment that feels more appropriate, more natural, some kind of "trigger" that becomes a habit and makes you "flow into" working out (maybe coming home right after work? maybe first thing in the morning?). Don't bash yourself either if you skip sometimes, just keep up the pace on the long run.

A useful trick is to pick activities and set things up so that there is basically zero friction between "I somehow feel like doing X" and actually doing it. You always have 15s to spare doing planks. You most probably have a sofa under which you can easily pop your feet for a couple abs. You don't even have to dress up for working out. I did that (zero-friction workout from home), and the next step was to go running because that meant I just had to pick shoes and a short and just go around the block (or merely to the next intersection and back) whenever I felt like it, because even the local gym is friction for the most ridiculous reasons (opening hours, cost, going there and then working out...) and your mind will use whatever excuse it can find to cop out on it.

Here are some "zero-friction" beginner workouts[0][1][2][3], from which you can pick just one exercise (so that's 30/45s), or do one full round (5-10min), or, when the time comes, do multiple rounds of them. Don't fret at some exercises! e.g burpees may look intimidating: just try to do them, go super slowly if need be, maybe do just one or two at first, take your time, just don't stop. You'll get better with time.

It's of course far easier to armchair design, but I could imagine it working well enough?

Each individual cell is ~12 lines of very short line lengths, yeah? You can easily fit a single cell on-screen with a keyboard while editing (or potentially while running), and then you could imagine a more abstract representation of a whole running system if you choose to zoom out while the system is running.

A few years ago I built a prototype of an iOS editor for Core War (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Core_War), and it felt super-natural to have a custom keyboard whose keycaps were individual opcodes rather than ASCII characters.

I'd like to reiterate the advice to go slowly at first, both from first- and second-hand experience. I know an ex-addict friend who was trying to improve his fitness after years of neglecting it and tried running. He always came back five / ten minutes later completely destroyed, feeling humiliated about his lack of ability. Took a while to figure out that he was trying to sprint for as long as he could as soon as he left the door, which of course meant that his body gave up almost immediately.

I used the free NHS / BBC Couch To 5K app - https://www.nhs.uk/Tools/Pages/couch-to-5k.aspx - which gives you a good framework to pace yourself (you start with alternating periods of walking and running) and has voiceovers from Michael Johnson, as well as a few others. There are other C25K apps out there, but they tend to be paid - this one is simple and works well. It was amusing how motivating I found him saying "you're doing really well" despite knowing this was probably recorded a few years ago in breaks between Olympic commentary for the BBC.

That's a really negative spin. Think of single parents who work two jobs, and barely have time to sleep. Shopping, planning meals, and cooking all take time. Stopping at MacDs and buying 99cent meals on the way home from work is way easier. Food that's bad for you, especially sugary soft drinks, should be taxed to cost a premium to encourage businesses to make their food healthier.
Let's remember that is has been < 12 months since the Vegas shooting, and the biggest question people have been asking (aside from motive) is how a man managed to bring that much firepower into his hotel room and keep it there for so long.

Of course hotel security is going to be all over that. Its a destination resort for gambling and drinking, have some perspective.

The article doesn't state it, so what does the gender distribution look like for the suicide rates?

Yeah, I'm not going to be able to go from the games straight into x86 programming but when I come across the idea of op-codes and registers again I'll be in more familiar territory.

What they do teach very well is the Test / Execute / Debug loop and problem solving.

At FANGMA, yes - almost always. Managers typically has level either equal to or more than employee they manage. In addition, managers gets to make recommendations for bonuses for their directs. This by default make them at least as much paid as their directs. In a weird scenario it may be possible that manager gets dinged while he/she recommends better bonus for same leveled direct. However this is very rare because typically manager gets to claim at least partial credit for his/her direct and of course they are the ones with direct lines to higher up.

On a side note, this is a bad thing for industry because it makes lot of great ICs forced in to management.
