You are comparing apples with oranges. If you tried to modify the behaviour of the desktop of other OS'es to the extent as you want with Linux, then that would be a fair comparison.

It sounds a lot like what you are saying is that the diagnostic criteria for ADHD do not appropriately account for normal differences between children of different ages and sexes, and therefore systematically overdiagnose younger children and boys (or underdiagnose older children and girls, or some combination.)

But, while that may be true (it certainly sounds true), I think there is another factor at work explaining the specific result here:

If you need a diagnosis by age 7, and school is the first structured environment where symptoms are likely to be noticed, a child born in August will have essentially twice as long to manifest symptoms to qualify for the diagnosis.

If you take any condition, the number of people who will demonstrate symptoms over a two year period of observation will be greater than over a one year period, all other things being equal.
Assuming you're in Europe, we go by decades. Ex., we say "in the 60s", "in the 90s", etc.

In the States they use "baby boomers", "generation x", "millennials" more, but it's the same thing.

It's all based on the postwar period (WWII, generally).
I think the three I mentioned would be a great place to start.

- On a scale of 1-10, 1 being you could do it with your eyes closed, 10 being you thought it was nearly impossible, how difficult was this puzzle for you?

- Did you learn something new because of this puzzle? Could be something about your language or a library or a new algorithm that helped you solve it.

- What language(s) did you use to solve this puzzle?

It could let you compare yourself with other developers - if you thought it was hard and most others didn't then you would know you might need to practice something more. It might be something that would best be combined with some profile level questions - like their experience level and primary languages that they use day to day.

It could tell us that people who used python found this particular puzzle easy (maybe because of some built in function in the stdlib) but people using some other language didn't.

Year over year it would be awesome to compare the languages that people use. Nobody is doing this for their job supposedly so these are either languages that people enjoy or find practical. I bet you'd find some correlations though too between language and how many puzzles they complete in a year - ie people using language x tend to finish the whole year but language y tend to drop off after day 10.

There will always be women (and men) who want a single partner and don't really care about value or whatever it is you're on about.

It's just that, like me, by 25 they're married. If you're 35 these people are pretty much permanently unavailable to you unless you have very auspicious financial or cultural circumstances.
If you reacted poorly to the medication, it could have been that your diagnosis was off, or that you didn’t benefit from the type the doctor prescribed.

I’m not positive about adolescent applications but my ADD is treated well by Adderall/Vyvanse vs. Ritalin, as the active ingredients in Ritalin made me feel hyperactive and on the others I feel “normal.”

After stopping your course of medication did the original symptoms which lead to the diagnosis go away?

My interpretation of the way US lecturers work is that they may reuse entire exams. Especially as a lot just get exams from book publishers.

In NZ (at Canterbury at least) all exams are archived and available in the libraries, and most also as PDFs. All of them. Shelf after shelf stretching back decades. At least back when I was there - maybe it’s different now? Publishers selling exam material as part of their text books seems to be moderately recent

divorce tends to neuter men in practice. Poverty and its secondary effects from any cause, alimony or child support or legal bills in specific, is rarely "highly desirable" for men.
I can't disagree with your comment more. As someone who falls squarely in the Millennial Age range, late 20s to 30s (btw that's how old millennials are now), I find the issue with so many people in this position has less to do with their upbringing or personality in particular, and more to do with the fact that we are in many ways playing a game in which the rules have changed. And that's a direct consequence of the actions of not our parent but our parents' parents', who are somehow, still in power 20 years after they normally would have passed on control on the economy and government to the next generation.

And what I mean by that is, that those who have come of age over the past 20 years have spent pretty much their entire lives being read a recipe for success. Go to college -> get a degree -> get a job -> live a successful live. It's a simple step by step plan that every single person in our lives have reinforced ad nauseam, because for most of the 20th Century that has been the surest path to a happy middle class life.

The problem is that of course every single step in that path is now significantly more difficult than it was 20-30 years ago when our parents' generation did it. You can't just go to college anymore. It costs 10x what it did in the 80's and you can't even compare the cost to the 50's or 60's. It's also way more competitive getting into a top school. Even if you manage to get into college and pay for it, it's no longer good enough to just get a degree. You need to get a degree in the right thing and or find a way to differentiate yourself from the other 1 million students who graduate each year, because oh by the way our generation is the most well educated in the history of the world. Even if all those things go right finding a job is harder than ever. People retire later if at all now so the market is flooded not only with too many well educated applicants but the multitude of experienced candidates competing for the same entry level jobs. And even if you get a job, the crushing levels of student debt and the fact that wages haven't kept up with inflation, basically mean that it's incredibly hard to live a successful life on your own.

So basically the issue is that people have spent their entire lives calibrated for a set of conditions that no longer exists. There isn't a golden path to a cozy middle class lifestyle anymore. And once you start compounding that with the normal issues everyone runs into adjusting to an adult life you get this malaise. Everyone's poor and hates their life and social media is there so you can compare yourself to the 10% of the population who seem to have it all figured out either because they have rich parents to subsidize their life, or they got lucky and picked a major that actually pays decently, or they married their HS sweetheart and hate life somewhat less than everyone else.

And because it has to be said the fact that everyone keeps calling Millenial's lazy, and entitled for somehow not being as successful as previous generations despite the changing landscape doesn't help.

The most effective rape drug ever, turning adults into children who can be exploited.

“I got dismissed from Harvard because I had given psychedelics to an undergraduate. We had agreed with the dean that we would not give psychedelics to undergraduates.” Ram Dass flashes a mischievous grin. “He was an attractive kid.” So do you suspect, I ask, that Maharajji had a hand in making you attracted to men because it would ultimately lead you to him? “I suspect,” he replies with a nod. “He's a rascal.” “Maharajji?” I ask. “Yeah,” Ram Dass says.

There are truths to be seen through the eyes of a child, but there's also the rape-facilitation, too.
that's so relative. It is sooooo much more expensive to live up in New York with the cost of living higher than most states and all the taxes you have to pay... Remember that you have fed and state... also if you work in NYC you have to pay a special tax. Top that off if you live in NJ and work in NYC, you're really paying alot in taxes. So your 150K might be down to 80K after all the taxes and commuter fees (like tolls) you have to pay.

A lot of languages have had type declarations at the end. The first popular which comes to mind is Pascal (see http://wiki.freepascal.org/Fibonacci_number).

You get used to it. Having to deal with this kind of differences between different programming languages is a lesser concern in the grand scheme of things.
I think a lot of people are ignoring the gendered context of the narrative she's presenting: the cultural notion that, as a woman, your value is measured in terms of your attractiveness and fertility.

Those decline as you get older, and so does your value. When you are in your 20s you need to "make hay while the sun is shining", leveraging that to get where you want in life before the clock runs out.

It's not a healthy narrative, nor one I agree with. But you can see why she might feel the way she does; she has really squandered the opportunity provided by her youthful beauty.

I feel it myself (as a 36yo transwoman), compounded by a tech industry I work in that also has weird ideas about the value of youth.

She needs to not just "get out of a rut" - she needs to realize that her value to the world is not being attractive, fertile, or wealthy. She needs to get to a place where she feels like she's providing value to others that goes beyond that.

It's an uphill climb, as some of the posts here make very clear - there are a lot of people who view a woman's worth in a similar fashion.
A few points. First, the Houston metro is actually 10000 sq. miles. And very little of that is green space, unlike the Bay Area, which is filled with large strips of mountains / state parks.

Additionally, I don't have numbers but Houston does seem to have much lower income inequality for the bulk of the population. The SF Bay Area is really good at churning a lot of moderately wealthy people through the tech industry, who far outearn anyone else, and end up bidding against each other for the available housing. I imagine Houston's energy industry creates far fewer moderately wealthy people who outstrip everyone else in income to this extent.

Finally, one big thing that Texas does very right is having strong property taxes instead of state income taxes. You don't have early homeowners holding on to their feudal properties while new workers struggle to make ends meet, as you do in California.
Streamlio is at least working on Apache Pulsar, which is a much better alternative to Kafka.
I have a funny anecdote about developer building high rise condos in a very crowded market, take some shortcuts to squeeze in as many units as possible under the local zoning law, and pay the consequences.

I know people who live in a newly built high rise condo in a very crowded, popular city to live in west side of US. It was built during the recent building boom.

Recently they found out that about a few dozen units in the building have filed claim against the HOA/owner due mold under carpet, that starts around laundry machine.

The outbound water pipe connecting between washer and the main outbound pipe of the building is apparently too small. When the washer is in use, it builds up too much pressures and starts a slow leak behind the washer. This is in a hard to view area and goes undetected, starting mold problem.

I was told that the builder wanted to fit in more condo units but stay below allowed outbound sewage pipe size (?), so the hack they came up with is using narrower pipe between the washer and the main outbound pipe in the condo building.

Yes, builders don't have to build/pay for roads and other infra, but indirect cost is always paid by someone else. Even the residents of the development.

As the author of Fixed, I'd like to make a few comments:

1. If you are above 100 billion, you are probably dropping the the 'fractions' and dealing with whole numbers. Most databases don't have their columns configured as Decimal(64,64) for 128 digits. It's not practical. So I would store the amounts above 100 billion in another value - the billions unit. And if you are 100s of billion, I am pretty certain you're not concerned with .0000001 dollars. Most 'terminals/receipts' couldn't show/print a number that high without truncating or the UI/representation would be all messed up.

2. I don't believe the crypto-currency space needs more than 7 places on an exchange. The CME only supports 8 decimal places in their protocol. Most of these issues are handled by reinterpreting the scale & quantity. "The satoshi is currently the smallest unit of the bitcoin currency recorded on the block chain. It is a one hundred millionth of a single bitcoin (0.00000001 BTC)." and since there can only be 21 million BTC, it easily fits - although I would probably change the code to use 8 decimal places for ease of use.

3. I might add more rounding modes. They are trivial, but there are some pretty exotic ones - so implementing them all internally, rather than externally can be problematic.

4. For the gamers that say they need float32 - there are more digits of precision in Fixed that float32 - just change the number of places in the code... if you need less significand and more decimals.

5. I've added integer Mul. It is about 2x faster than using floating point. If you avoid limiting overflow, which it doesn't, it is closer to 10x.
The fifth bedroom and second bathroom primarily benefit the new resident. Better infrastructure, by contrast, benefits everyone. For instance, more trains = more frequent trains = less waiting at the train station. More bus routes means more potential destinations for you.

If you never intend to use public transit no matter how robust it is, this won't apply. However, in this case, you should really consider the environmental impact of your actions.

It varied a lot for me. The early ones I was generally able to do in 10 minutes or less. The middle ones generally took me 30-60 minutes - or I was blocked and it took me a lot longer. The later ones generally took an hour.

But - I wasn't just trying to solve them, I was also trying to write tests and refactoring when I was done - so ymmv. I also wasn't ever attempting to compete for the leaderboard.
I agree! Society is missing a non-theistic answer to this. The closest I have found is the Stoic concept of virtue.
You don't need to primarily rely on writing for income to be considered a writer. Granted, a day job and other commitments usually means it'll take a while to finish anything. But only career writers have to care about quantity.

Maybe I can help on this one. I'm midway through learning Redux - enough to have stuff working, but not enough to write complex UI code with it.

The problem for me is that Redux uses a set of higher order constructs, which requires a set of functional abstractions that are pretty unique to Redux and Redux-likes. There isn't remotely enough documentation to explain why the boilerplate is put where it is or named the way it is, so I have working code, but no real understanding of why the boilerplate is this way vs. any other way.

So what happens in the docs is that I follow the tutorial along, and it's great about setting up the problems to show why Redux is useful, but then it goes "ok so to solve the problem you use this magical incantation in Redux." Yes, I can adapt the magical incantation, but that doesn't really help me grok who owns which callback that makes which modifications or transformations to be consumed by which objects.
This study straddles the time when the DSM-5 was published and came into general use, and in any case it didn't follow kids past age 6-8 depending on birth year, so that part of the change in criteria probably isn't relevant to the results.

I like the fact that the list view is more like a notepad where you can just keep typing. Many other task list tools make you hit a few extra keys to create tasks and most of the time you just need a simple todo list. It makes it easier to convince others to use it too for the simple stuff.

Beyond that, I don't like how their board view (Kanban style) is hacked on and doesn't coexist with the list view yet, and a lot of the more complex stuff is done better elsewhere.

I honestly didn't like the advice that was given, but suppose it might've been its format that isn't quite suited for giving actual, useful advice. It's a magazine column, it's supposed to be vague, is what I tell myself.

You're 35, feel lonely, lack connections, afraid of the future, afraid to commit to something, finding out that all your friends who decided to live a 'normal' life are thriving in their own ways. Perhaps you're right, they are having a better time of it. Perhaps you're wrong, that they have their own troubles and their own burdens (if you had taken a path where you had a child, but that that child had an intractable illness... would you prefer that path rather than this one?).

I'm going to toot the Jordan Peterson horn here, so if you don't like it - don't read it.

One of the most practical pieces of advice I've gotten from him is - make a plan. I'm in a similar place. I did an undergrad degree that genuinely interested me, and I've definitely benefitted from that. I have a job that has the possibility of going no where (but I suppose most jobs have that possibility). I want to pivot my skillset to something more concrete (like software development) despite the fact that I have no background in it. I don't have much savings. I'm alone and have a few close friends. Most days I spend worrying about the future and groping my way forward. But I am 100% better than I was maybe a year ago, where I would smoke weed almost daily, spend an entire day playing video games, masturbating too much. Those aren't inherent moral failings, but they were interfering with a life I'd want to have.

So I made some goals, and I broke them down into actual daily hard targets. I started small. Get to work on time, put in a solid 8 hours, gym in the morning, eat right, clean my room regularly, make sure I maintain connections with friends and family, practice coding at night, doing undergrad courses as a non-degree student. I don't know if this will work out as I intend it to, but it sure as hell beats sitting around hoping things will turn around on their own accord.
