I am really surprised at all the skepticism about ADHD in this thread.

1) Attention (or executive functioning in general) is normally distributed, just like a lot of other human traits. If you don't doubt that intelligence is normally distributed (and that some people are smarter than other), what makes you think that there is no variability in executive functioning / attention?

Executive functioning also improves as brain develops, and that's why problems of younger kids are probably more noticeable.

2) Re: diagnosing using checklists and interviewing. That's literally how every other psychiatric disorder is diagnosed. Depression? Checklists and interviewing. Anxiety? Checklists and interviewing. Schizophrenia? Also checklists and interviewing.

Studies show that there are measurable differences between ADHD brains and normal brains. People complain that these are not used for diagnosis. The reason these scans are not used for diagnosis is because the resolution of common brain scan methods is not high enough, and these differences are seen on the population level.

3) Some graphs on brains differences: https://adhd-institute.com/burden-of-adhd/aetiology/neurobio...

Uighurs have a extremism problem on the scale of the Taliban. Literally the Taliban was training Uighurs in the same camps, right across the border (western Afganistan shares a border with Xinjiang).

What would the US have done if the Taliban was in, say, West Virginia? Because that's what China is dealing with in Xinjiang.
Do the non-muslim Chinese people want to do anything? If they don't, I don't see much happening here. No one seems to be able to exert serious international pressure on Chinese politics. It's a pretty hopeless cause, for me.

Seems like political and economic isolation for China might be effective, but who wants to do that when they offer the world cheap labor and manufacturing?
createSlice is an interesting approach, though it feels like it's missing the use case of being able to set multiple keys in the same reducer from one action, as with my valueAB example above. It might be worth putting some thought into how to make a variant of it that can produce multiple reducers (one per key to be affected), not just one.
Get a MB Air 2018. It's about as nice, had TouchID without the Touch Bar (meaning Esc key intact), it's lighter and can be had with 16GB RAM.

Most of my dev is on some cloud somewhere regardless so it's a perfectly capable machine.
I think it's beautiful! :)
The truth is that China is too big, to economically important, and to powerful militarily for either countries or companies to do anything except talk or write.

So I except nobody will do anything that has any impact.

> If you aren't looking to get a return you might as well rent and have your hands away from the duties and risks of property ownership.

A couple moves forced by landlords deciding to move in or sell the property to people looking to remodel and flip and you might discover non-investment value to owning your residence.

(Renting comes with those and many other risks; essentially all the duties of ownership are risks—risk that the landlord will fail the duty—for renters. Unless the lease terms transferred to the duty to the renter, then they are just duties.)

The weird song and dance of luring developers by offering so much personal data to them for free in the early days of Facebook's API always creeped me out. I remember thinking about this all the time back in 2007-2010 or so and wondering how people could be so naive and when it would all blow up.

Blow up would have been nice. I was overly optimistic in those days.
I won't claim it is fun to move, but it hasn't been that big of a deal ever since the US highway system was built a century ago. I've done this a few times, as did my parents and siblings.

The advantage is that I have never had to suffer from expensive housing or a long commute. My worst commute was 20 minutes by car, and my current one is 3 minutes unless I walk. For people making this choice, housing is cheaper by a factor of 5 to 10, not even counting the extra land we get.

Even if I insisted on staying in one area though, I really don't need the density of jobs found in a megacity. If you fit the local industry well, there are usually several employers doing roughly the same thing.
People have retirement accounts. People aren't taking cash out of their 401k early to get drunk with their friends on Friday (I hope). People in their 20s and 30s just aren't seeing much of a need to set aside otherwise disposable or earmarked money to one day use it all on a down payment for something that you don't NEED to ever actually own.
>Flipping pages or scrolling is still superior to trying to scrub through a video timeline.

Well, that's a different use case.

Videos are good for exact instructionals, because of this, they are quite good for getting to the bare metal quickly and getting a quick - albeit incomplete - understanding of the technology.

Following a tutorial online on a webpage is a bit different as it's not a follow along, (you don't get told exactly what to click and "see" someone doing it) so it requires a bit more parsing and effort on your part. (Which can often be better for learning, but not always).

Generally my workflow for learning a new tech is starting with a good instructional video (like udemy) for the basic grounding, then move onto the technical documentation to develop an actual well grounded understanding.

Videos have their downsides, (you can get through an entire video series and not actually know how to self-guide) but they are much better in my opinion at lowering the barrier of entry.

Text is much better for someone wanting to learn specific things, or connecting concepts together, and/or reference documentation, searching for concepts.. etc.

The other point that I'm unsure if it is just me or all people, but I've started loving udemy videos because I can follow along with it a lot easier when I have tired eyes and worn out brain after a full day of work. I often struggle to teach myself a new technology when I'm completely worn out from my job.
This is a feature, not a bug. Just because wages haven't increased since the 90s and the middle class has collapsed in the US doesn’t mean the hard-won protections of unions should be slashed to match.

The physical implementation of a QC is more or less independent of the abstract theory that underlies it, just as is the case for regular computers. It just so happens that for regular computers, transistors make a much better implementation medium than anything else. But you can, in principle, build a classical computer out of relays, or legos, or wood. Likewise, in the abstract, anything that you can build a qbit and a quantum gate out of can be used to make a QC, so you might be able to make one out of quasiparticles, but it's unlikely to be better than what is being done now (if it were to turn out to be better that would be a major breakthrough). But no matter what you build it out of, the only way to get an answer out of it is to make a measurement on it.

Yes exactly! The content targetting "system programmers" is odd as Rust is great for so much more like the examples towards the bottom about webassembly and such.

Additionally the website seems to take longer to load.
That would be a fantastic application, however it would differ slightly in that it would not be a BCI (as in a traditional brain computer interface), but a device within the brain that impeded certain signals being sent to motor neurons that it detected were Parkinsonian. This would involve directly manipulating the output of the brain to the body itself, and require some serious bio-mechanical hardware!

I don't follow Crypto very closely (my background is Investment Management aka Finance), but I saw HackerNoon banner that says "Own Shares in Hacker news" then looked at SEC definition of security, and honestly it really baffled me how an ICO wasn't being regulated by SEC. I'm guessing because it's a "new technology" and that the SEC has been slow to react.

Anyways, I am curious if anyone thinks that some of the recent drop in Cryptos is due to SEC crackdown in ICO's?

Electrical Stimulation of lateral orbitofrontal cortex improves depression
I was diagnosed with ADHD in my 50's. Without meds I have to spend an enormous amount of energy managing my cognitive state. Imagine you had to spend 60% of your time creatively managing yourself into a mental state where you can do something meaningful with the remaining 40%. And I've been practicing meditation for 30 years, I'm very active, I've adapted my lifestyle around my needs.

All that work doesn't even come close to the benefit I get from Vyvanse. I get effortless self control, and all that time back.

I figured out I had ADHD by observing my (very intelligent) daughter in kindergarten--she was the obvious behavioural outlier. All the other kids were mostly attending to the teacher, my daughter was attending to everything else. We didn't medicate her until Grade 4, when she started to think she was dumb. Meds changed everything for her, allowed her to develop a better self-concept (and winning the academic prize that year). She's off meds right now, struggling a bit, but a least she knows she's not dumb. That's huge.

Here's my thinking: stimulants are relatively safe. They aren't particularly addictive. Yes, they suck, there are tradeoffs. But if they don't work out, you can stop. You can stop whenever you want.

But once a kid has internalized "I'm dumb" or "I'm a loser" it is very hard to undo. That can stay with them for life.

This is hilarious anti-religion rhetoric, complete unwillingness to have evolution and religion in the same sentence. Twisting from how religion historically promotes community into the content of the religion itself. The content is irrelevant, what is important is the sense of community and bonding that religion has offered people for forever.
I honestly believe that in this day and age Richard Stallman's way of viewing computing is haplessly out of touch and no longer relevant.

I say this as someone who saw him talk to my cambridge / boston area university's ACM group, afterwords he bummed a ride from my friend back to MIT. He dismissed most questions from students and while we were riding back in my friend's car (with Richard Stallman in the front seat) he basically didn't answer any questions and just argued semantics.

I love Richard Stallman and what he stands for, but I think we need to re-evaluate how we digest and understand his opinions on computing in current times.
AWS re:Invent - Real-Time Applications with API Gateway WebSockets & AWS Lambda
The only thing that would probably have a chance of working is a large global coalition willing to take action simultaneously to sanction China's economy to the tune of at least being equivalent to a trillion dollars annually (whatever form that would need to take, a combination of targeting their companies, exports, imports, access to natural resources, banks, high level politicians, et al.). It would require at a minimum the US/Canada + EU + Japan + South Korea + AU/NZ. That gets you the majority of the global economy.

The big problem: it involves the world's consumers willingly punching themselves in the face at the same time. It might even throw the global economy into a deep recession and as a consequence kill a lot more people than the gulags are likely to. There are a lot of fallout problems in dealing with China, not least because they've historically shown a willingness to distribute any necessary pain upon their people to achieve party goals. There'd also have to be an elaborate verification program put in place, so China wouldn't continue their agenda in a more subtle manner; I don't see that sort of invasive foreign observation ever being allowed.

They've made a very conscious choice to eliminate the Uighur culture, as they did with Tibet before it. They have an end goal in mind, it's hard to imagine stopping them without upping the risks very high. Frankly I'm skeptical there is any way to stop them, I think they'd just take the pain and make it an us vs them conflict to convince the domestic population to absorb it (insert slogans here to drive loyalty during the great fight against the imperialists).
I know so b/c I grew up and lived in NYC since 1990. It's somewhat laughable to hear someone who claims to know so much about the city where the median median income is only $55k making such absurd claims to justify NYPD cops' $150K salary.

I personally don't have any problem with cops making that much money as long as the city is safe and they are not cheating the system. Having worked as a public servant at a less-offending NYC agency, however, the problem I see is that everyone is out to milk the system as much as possible and there seems to be almost little or no control over this (ie, wage inflation among "certain" class of public servants or opportunists).
Ok, but what solutions did he offer? He could have suggested building a big wall around Xinjiang. China is good at building 'beautiful walls' anyway. I wonder how he missed that.

I guess it comes down to what considerations you value more. Personally, I'd still take the instability because I value the flexibility much more at this point in my life.
The question asked about "technology", not the Rust community. It can be interpreted as implying that non-heterosexuals are underrepresented and simply asking if the respondent identifies as non-heterosexual. Also, people's concepts of representation often include visibility.
It should be possible to adjust the significance estimate down based on an assumption of continuous sampling less than the sampling size target. E.g. if you're aiming for a sample size of 100, and after 20 samples the split is 19/1 the current ratio is 95%, but that's not accurate yet, so e.g. it could be adjusted to the average between the two possible outcome extremes (99/1 and 19/81) and show 59% with low confidence. I don't know the statistics or if that specific method actually makes sense, but it should be possible.

For those curious (like me), this is described in the upcoming Edition Guide at https://rust-lang-nursery.github.io/edition-guide/rust-2018/... .
The US already did this in an earlier era and its called the American Indian Wars as the natives were quelled and cleansed by the majority race government. Only this one is a Communist Chinese version of it.
The US has already showed what they would do, wage a war that ends in genocide. Long term this will turn out to be the more effective and peaceful path. Poverty and lack of ability to integrate is pretty much a permanent purgatory for many populations in the west. A reasonable government would fix that as soon as possible with training and development.
Other than this article, I’m pretty much unfamiliar with Ram Dass, so I’m curious what leads you to believe some form of rape took place.

It does. And until last year even the major support company's containers (for Kafka etc) were not very good, we didn't upgrade a k8s cluster purely because of the state of their stack. This stuff scared me and this is a shocking affair these days. In some ways it's a step back in reliability, and i'd have taken this AWS option in a heartbeat, price-gouging aside.
Most businesses just don't seem to respect good/working tech. Even though it's often critical to their bottom line, they'll think "$5,000?! My idiot nephew could do it for $100. Those coder monkeys think what they do is soooo hard as to charge $5,000?? Ha! Look, this guy here says he can do it for $250." <1 year later> "I hate tech and every techie. They think they're god's gift to humanity. My system never works. I paid good money for it" ($250). I think the corporate equivalent to that is, "It costs what?! Outsource it overseas right now!"
Trump demonizes both China and Islam. So I'm not sure what the best play for the Republican party is here. If you praise the Chinese government then that's going too far. But if you criticize them then you have to soften your own Islamophobia.
We can’t really do anything for the Kurds in Turkey or people in South Sudan but you think we can somehow get China to change behavior? Not a chance. We can’t even act against Russia or Iran either, or even North Korea without tremendous repercussions.

Look at Venezuela. It’s starving its own people for political reasons, they have some oil, but we could survive without it... do you think we’re gonna go down there and do anything about it? Nope!
Maybe the ADHD brain is the normal brain and there is something abnormal about domesticated human brains, the ones that conform to the needs of modern corporations and the schooling system that supports them. Maybe the ADHD brain is a better hunter gatherer / forager brain.

NASA’s Return to the Moon to Start with Private Companies’ Spacecraft
As a 32-year-old with 3 kids, my parents are still in their mid-50s and can watch our kids for a week while we go on vacation. My father-in-law passed away last in his mid-70s (my mother-in-law is amazing and is a huge help, but she can't watch 3 kids alone for a week). There's a good chance my parents will be at my kids' weddings.

When you're 83 and your kid is my age, he'll probably wish there was anything he could do to make you 20 years younger.

I'm not saying you shouldn't have had a kid, or anything like that, but I don't know how you can suggest that it will never be a problem that you are a relatively old father (versus if you had kids in your 30s, other things being equal, which obviously they aren't).
