Sure, but I’m not sure I buy that companies hire H1-B’s because they are more loyal.

They spend far more money and time upfront getting the person the visa and in the end there is nothing preventing them from either going home or tranfering to a similar role at another company.
I think we're in general agreement (and both a lot more experienced than the average person). I've seen things labelled at pure sativa which did nothing but cause people to feel couch lock, and pure indicas that lead to head highs in the stratosphere. I don't think the physiological effect is correlated strongly with the strain.
> I spent a few months largely crippled by panic disorder

Yeah, that's kind of what happened with me too. Only that the panic attack itself was only 2 months ago; Out of freaking nowhere.
I remember I was reading a piece of code and then suddenly I felt my hearting beating faster and just couldn't breathe properly; you really just feel like you're going to die - right where you are. And then, after it has passed, you are left with the anxiety of it all and all the bad thoughts. I had to take medications for high blood pressure because mine was like 16/9, and my normal is 12/8 (I'm 29 and I exercise daily).

After 2 months visiting doctors I can say I'm "normal" again, but I have to be aware of the "long fuse" thing, because that seems to be the real killer.
Since everyone else is saying what worked for them... I didn't fix them with medication, breathing or lifestyle. I saw a therapist (CBT) for a few months and she suggested leaning into the panic attack: when you feel one coming on, deliberately try to trigger it. They whither away when you embrace them.

The underlying anxiety is a separate issue and required a few years of practiced mental discipline. Sorry, no silver bullets there.
This is smart. I'm an inpatient physician. We run into issues all the time where we can't reach family for an elderly or non-responsive patient.

Has happened to me once. All of a sudden I couldn't breathe and I had an ache in my chest. No doubt I was hyper ventilating, but I was also sweating and getting vision effects. Which had me convinced I was about to die of a heart attack.

I don't want to derail, but this strikes me as very odd:

"Right after it happened I went to see my regular doctor and got a prescription for medication that can calm me down in that situation"

I mentioned it to doc at next visit, quite some time later. He also decided it was probably just a panic attack and unless they start to repeat to forget about it. It wouldn't occur to me to seek and carry medication for something that happened once in a lifetime. Unless it had turned out to be the symptoms of something serious and life threatening.

That's more or less how a sportsbook operates. However if the action doesn't balance out, the book has considerable exposure if the team with more bets on it wins.

Beforehand: I don't do sports betting. So I don't know much about the sports betting culture.

But why doesn't the bookmaker simply let anybody "pre-buy" bets (just like you do a bidding on an eBay auction). You will get your bet "approved" as soon as it becomes matched (or at least "near-matched") by the bookmaker. If it cannot be matched, you, of course, get your money/betting token back (just like you don't have to pay anything on an eBay auction if you become outbid).

Perhaps it might even be interesting to offer "flexibility in the ratios" for the bettor, i.e. if you are willing to only get 1.5 times your stake (instead of 2 times), you get "more in front of the queue for finding a match" (because this is better for the bookmaker).

Fine, charge a circular piece of wire, place it in space and spin it around. Voila, current without any accumulation of charge.

Honestly I'm confused why it's turning out to be such a controversial point that there's a difference between a change in charge and the movement of charges.

Heck in their diagram they claim that the voltage across an inductor is the double derivative of its charge, but inductors can't even hold charge so it's unclear what they're trying to say. They also claim that the charge across a resistor is somehow related to the integral of the voltage across it, but again (ideal) resistors can't really hold charge. The only way to interpret this supposedly 'universal' periodic system is by interpreting charge and its derivatives in different ways depending on context, which isn't convincing in a supposedly universal system.
This seems like a good resource:

Anxiety No More – Support and Help for a Natural Anxiety Cure
I mean it's sorta in the name "Integrated"
I've had panic attacks my entire life.Fortunately they're few and fair between these days and I can for the most part calm myself down when I feel one oncoming (they're almost always triggered by some event fortunately, very rarely just random ones).

I wouldn't wish them on anyone. That feeling of "I'm trapped, this is forever, I'm going to die, this is overwhelming, I need to escape" is genuinely the worst thing I've ever experienced. The brain misfiring the trigger that gets pulled when you're in a life or death situation is terrifying.

Fortunately recognizing that it's just a chemical response and I don't have an infinite supply of those chemicals and it will all be ok in a moment is one of the most calming thoughts and one that I always turn to when I'm panicking. Also remembering that I've felt amazing between panic attacks reminds me that soon I will feel that way again.

Just a few thoughts I turn to when I need to white knuckle that wave of panic that might be able to help someone else out.

Ask HN: Building a side project that makes money. Where to start?
I work for a company in customer service department. In my spare time I have learnt a bit about HTML, CSS, Python. I can code in python with some help but my skills are not much good.

I want to build a side project. Especially, one that makes money. Even if it brings in $100, I feel that it will provide more satisfaction than my current job.

I don't have any frontend dev skills. Where should I start?

Should I outsource the website development part? I am 31.

Can you provide some ideas on where to start? What are some simple things I can build by myself? Any ideas?

The 32GB of RAM is silly, because virtual machines, and PCI buses lol.

But I suspect the 150 mile marker has some other objective driving factor behind the reasoning for that number, which Amazon incidentally has some advanced insight on, due to other commitments.

It probably draws directly from line-of-sight targeting at visible horizons for some sort of specific altitude. Zero altitude, mean sea level gets you maybe a thirty mile shot with conventional artillery, targeting a multi-story building. But then again, rail guns seem to be capable of sending shells or slugs over 200 miles [0], so who knows...

I genuinely like it here and I'm a valued member of the department/team I work in.

This statement is a red flag to me. Don’t get attached emotional to any company that you don’t have a substantial ownership stake in. It’s just a means to an end - to put food on your table.

You will know if they feel you are a “valued member of the team” when you get your annual raise. People pay for what they value.

If you look at your paycheck and look at the market and see the two are not in sync, start focusing on building your resume over the next year. If after year 2, your check and the market are not in sync, start looking for another job.

I usually recommend staying on a job at least two years.

I don't want to strain those relationships with, be it real or only perceived, improper demands.

Your “relationship” with the company is that you work for two weeks and they deposit money into your account - nothing more or less. If they don’t pay you at least market value - they aren’t holding up thier part of “the relationship”.

They don't suddenly fail any more, and performance in production is fine... This is a rather empirical science right now.

Last year I discovered the joy that is merino wool ski clothes. A friend had a pro-discount on Icebreaker and I stocked up before a ski trip. Excellent stuff.

Here's a good/entertaining video that compares synthetic to merino for ski layers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sh8BFytupwA

His conclusion is that the synthetic was just as warm, but the merino wool did a better job of dissipating .. aromas... and stayed 'clean' longer.

It's unfortunate that a lot of the 'wool' out there is still blended with synthetics for cost or supposed-technical reasons.

Maybe they could, but I can’t imagine the US government could legally extradict. It would be absurd for the US to allow the EU (or the other way around, for that matter) to dictate what Americans or American companies can do in America (assuming the companies have no EU presence).
Yes, I would combine this with a couple of fake entries, and when those show up on their site, you file DMCA claims with google, and with their hosting provider. An american company has no choice but to shut their site down under threat of DMCA claims. If the site gets back up, add another fake entry, and do it again when they scrape you, until they give up.
If the panic attack is triggered by you being affraid of getting a panic attack, it might be possible to avoid it if you are carrying something you think helps. On the other hand just forgetting that at home might trigger the attack again. It's important to know why you are getting panic attacks in the first place. They can be caused by serious stress and burnout.

> then suddenly I felt my hearting beating faster and just couldn't breathe properly; you really just feel like you're going to die - right where you are

That's exactly my experience. I didn't know what was happening. I'd never had a panic attack before and it came totally out of nowhere. Someone ended up phoning an ambulance. By the time they got there, all that remained was the shame of having to say "I'm fine, please just ignore me". It wasn't until much later that I realized that I'd been stressy and anxious for a good while.

You missing the point of aid, or misunderstanding who the "aid" is supposed to benefit.

Look at the caveats the aid is given with. Look at the instances where that "aid" has to be spent on things that is dictated: "we give you this 'aid' which you must use to buy xyz from 'us'.

And to the other post about corruption, don't be so naive to think this is just a problem for the 'natives' to control. The aid giving countries know who we are given it to and what will happen to it. This is planned so that our interests get what they want. The corruption is complicit, maintained and wanted by western countries just as much as it is with the locals who benefit from the corruption

Interesting, but from the abstract it looks too underpowered to allow firm conclusions.

The dividing line between what's a language and what's the IDE is fairly arbitrary. E.g. a language could conceivably come with a tool chain that includes CLI-driven refactoring, and an "IDE" would only need to be a graphical interface calling it.

I would suggest creating a git repository on GitLab or GitHub to get started. Then learn about nodeJs, npm and create a build project, storing it on your remote git repo (GitLab private repo). Once you have started developing these skills try submitting to an open source project, getting feedback. When you feel you know enough about the process, look for small gig work and build up your resume from there. Lots of perils, but worth it. Good prep for the business skills you need.

I’m a founder and suffer from intermittent panic attacks. This first one I had was terrifying. I ended up going to the hospital because I thought I was having a heart attack. Once I figured out what was happening and the pattern for the symptoms, they got a lot more manageable. Just knowing I’m not dying and telling myself that helps to calm me down.

The linked ESPN article in Fred’s post is really good and worth reading. Reminds me of some of the mental health stigma that founders in the tech industry face. This quote in particular resonates with me: “Depression, anxiety and panic attacks are not a sign of weakness. They are signs of having tried to remain strong for so long.”

Humans are only so strong. Intense pressure can forge diamonds, or it can crush you underneath it. My hope is that the stigma of mental health goes away, and training our brains becomes as normal as training any other parts of our bodies.
