McMansions are actually quite functional and comfortable for the way upper-middle class Americans live today (at least those who can afford the utility bills and to pay others for cleaning and maintenance). The major real estate developers hire sociologists to study the lifestyles of real families and then incorporate the results into architecture. For example by putting a large window with a clear view of the entire back yard above the kitchen sink so that a parent can simultaneously cook dinner and supervise small children playing outside.

I've never used ketamine, but I did take hallucinogenic doses of dextromethorphan (DXM, a dissociative hallucinogen, the same class of drugs as ketamine) a few times in college. I have mild depression, and for several days to a week after each DXM trip, I felt very energized and creative, with all of my depressive symptoms gone. I'm not surprised that ketamine helps depression in some people. I sometimes consider microdosing DXM for depression and also general productivity.

Of course, don't take any medical advice from anonymous online posts.

The right to earn a living:
https://www.amazon.com/Right-Earn-Living-Economic-Freedom/dp...

and the concept of the political:
https://www.press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/book/chicago/C/bo54...

I used to think of laws and society as just arbitrary things. However, I now see that they reflect thousands of years of wisdom / improvement and are critical to creating the conditions for people to flourish. The right to earn a living helped me understand the common law system and why we should care about unenumerated rights and how to create a more just society.

The concept of the political helped me see how nihilistic egalitarianism and feckless bureaucracy isn't a bug but a feature of liberal democracy and how it doesn't have to be that way.

It’s actually working well to curb my reddit addiction by making it harder to idly browse on the phone.
It's a spamming service, right? (Not, as one might think from the name, a gay dating service.) Is it a big deal if it's down to anyone but the spammers?

There's an annoying tendency to combine spam services with actual transaction reports. (A transaction report is "Your order has shipped and here is the tracking number", not "We have a new product") Because everybody blocks the spammers. Constant Contact went down that road, and now you can't reliably use Constant Contact for transactions.

Regenerative Braking comes in two forms, passive and active. The notifications regarding limited Regenerative Braking Capacity are specific to passive braking (e.g. backing off the accelerator, lifting your foot off all pedals). Active braking will working using either Regenerative Braking or traditional brakes so what it's doing is irrelevant as the behavior is identical to the user.

So in your scenario where an individual might need to actively brake, they would be able to without issue. Where it might be an issue is when you're driving in bumper to bumper traffic and you're expecting regenerative braking and it's not there and you roll into the car in front of you. Then again, you don't make it very far down the road without noticing a difference in the accelerator pedal characteristics in limited regen mode.
They never use the word "affordable" in that sentence. They just say that it's less expensive than the XS, which is true.
I stand corrected. There are many different trailer models (over the years), with slightly different specs...

The point that they are too light duty for this use I think still stands.
You have no idea what you are talking about. The vast majority of drone use is for military surveillance that have no strike capabilities, and are used to determine whether to put soldiers on the ground. Good drone surveillance is literally the best resource we have for preventing bad military outcomes. It saves lives, both American and other.

I don't disagree, but I think this has been the case for a while now on reddit. I haven't noticed any drastic change in comment quality over the few years, and I've been using it almost daily since 2012.

There are communities that moderate very heavily and don't allow the joke/sarcastic/low-effort comments (askhistorians, politicaldiscussion, etc).
Is the market really dictating anything at that price or is it desperate.

I don't think anyone with the power to dictate would accept a dollar an hour.

War and Peace came immediately to mind for me as well, but mostly because I do not think I have ever read a more magnificent novel.

I'm a literature professor, and in academic literary study, we don't spend a lot of time talking about which books are "better" than others. But personally? I'll just never get over that one.

I suppose I'd have to add Aeschylus' The Oresteia (the oldest of the ancient Greek tragedies we possess, and the only complete trilogy). I was a truly terrible high school student, who I think just barely got into college. Reading The Oresteia as a freshman made me decide that one way or another, I would have to figure out how to read and study literature for the rest of my life.

There's evidence that selection happens at the organismal level (duh) and at the species level, but nothing else. There's some weak evidence that it can happen at levels above species (genus, family, etc), but it's not super well supported.

The question of population-level selection (what you've called group selection) is more contentious, although it shouldn't be. The grandpa of our field, E.O. Wilson, whom we all adore and wish we could constantly hug, loves the idea. Sadly, evidence doesn't love it. Like, there's basically none. There's no real theoretical underpinnings that would make it possible, either, because there's just too much gene flow between demes (...partially isolated breeding populations) to allow selection to happen.

Bill Gates' career trajectory:

- Access to a computer lab in high school, something not common at all in the '70s, was making small computer apps before his freshman year

- Attends Harvard, meets Paul Allen (working at Honeywell nearby) and Steve Ballmer (Math + Econ).

- Gets a chance to pitch Basic (or whatever it was) to a higher-up at IBM, since Gates' mom was on the board of United Way and could arrange an introduction.

There's a lot of stuff that goes unsaid in a LinkedIn profile.
Twitter seems to be the enigma to that rule, because I still get heated replies to tweets from years ago from time to time. Even though time has passed, the conversation is still as shallow as ever.

I can't imagine being a celebrity and getting dozens of hate tweets in my mentions because a tweet I made 8 years ago shows up as a link on a facebook group somewhere.
That's really cool. The only thing missing is the total number of DOM elements on a page. I've seen production sites with literally thousands, and it slows most browsers to a crawl (and balloons memory).
My pick is "Tao of Pooh," which is kind of a westerner's ELI5 of Taoism. I can't overemphasize how useful Taoism has been for me as a lens through which to understand and participate in the world. (And there really isn't much mysticism to it)
While this may be true, Reddit's "free speech" ethos has been part of its DNA from day 1. Reddit has also gone a long way to getting rid of the most egregious content (I mean, jailbait???)

What would you suggest the alternative is? I think the real problem is that society is coming to terms with the fact that anonymous free speech isn't all it's cracked up to be.
There is something to be said about StackOverflow perennial content idea, but maybe something already said it better.
That’s sort of a truism, then. Because obviously building a large international organization is sufficient to consider you part of the elite.

> Ketamine's antidepressive effects are by far the most potent when ketamine is administered as an IV drip over a long period of time, like 40ish minutes. If you simply inject it all at once, you will definitely go to la la land, but the duration will be too short.

No one understands the exact mechanism of ketamine for depression even though there has been a lot of research and speculation on this topic. Therefore, you can't say which ROA is best for patients or if one works better than another.

Furthermore, all studies have been small and short in duration so there's no statistical significance to the fact that the IV ROA is used more in studies. If IV was the only route that worked it would be the first anti-depressant with that designation. Because of the cost of infusions patients are right to be skeptical about doctors that are running clinics.

> In short, I see the ratio of risk to effectiveness for home use ketamine to be emphatically not worth it. Unless you have a partner / friend who has the necessary training.

My doctor has clinical experience with ketamine and about 2+ years of prescribing patients with TRD with sublingual ketamine that is taken at home. Ketamine is an incredibly safe drug and nothing about his practice has changed. His insurance has even stayed the same. I know that’s a common justification for high prices from docs that run IV clinics.

The reason I’m not going anonymous on this is because I feel passionately that we need to stem the tide of shady ketamine doctors that don’t give a shit about patients. When I asked my doctor why he wouldn’t charge me a lot of money (he could!) for the treatment he asked me, “Would I charge you a lot for Lexapro because it works?” Good point.

See this book for background on Ketamine and the studies completed:

It was for Amazon. I will say I had 4 or 5 other interviews at Amazon that day and most of them weren't nearly as good, one was actually atrociously bad.

They may have changed their interview process at this point though, I only interviewed for them that one time and it was quite a few years ago.
I agree, but it’s jarring going between devices (phone, iPad and computer) and the multiple interfaces. Then the repeated niggling to use the app. If I haven’t after several years, the chances are I don’t want to.

Ask HN: Prefer to pay a monthly fee, or deal with ads on your favorite sites?
After seeing some threads of people on HN talking about common "dark patterns" such as reddit making the mobile web app seem unusable to push users to the native app, I want to know what YOU personally would want.

All things constant, deeply think about your favorite websites(that have a decent sized staff, and non-negligible maintenance costs) and consider if you would rather pay a monthly fee, or deal with the negatives of ads(including these dark patterns, tracking, and selling data).

For the fee assume the fee would be a small number averaging ~ $1 per month per website you currently enjoy for free. Assume $1 would be what the website generates from ads and data in a month per user, so instead you can just pay them the revenue they would otherwise be receiving.

Note: Please do not turn the conversation in a philosophical debate about how the internet should be free, but focus on the fact that these larger sites have pretty large costs to stay in business.

It's still simultaneously a mystery to me that a company like reddit with all their years behind them and all the traffic still needs to raise rounds and a wonder that its possible to raise capital for such a company.
Maybe because it's included with Office365 Business Premium (local Office + Exchange/Onedrive/Sharepoint/Teams, etc) or O365 Business Essentials (just the online services)? It's also included with E1/E3/E5 on the Enterprise side.

So basically if you're using any of the MS products that include online services you get it free. If you're not, you can get Teams for $5/month/user and get Exchange and online storage thrown in free (vs $6.67-12.50/month/user for Slack depending on your compliance and reporting needs).

If nothing else, there may be pressure to "try what we're already paying for anyway and see if it's good enough," and while there's at least one other comment about how bad it is, I'm pretty sure a lot of the Microsoft online services have been improving at a pretty decent clip.

1) "The Beginning of Infinity" by David Deutsch - This book allowed me to embrace a sort of rational optimism in my world view. Also I was convinced by this book that the true test of a good government is not about whether you can pick the right leaders every time, but about being able to remove the bad ones relatively quickly.

2.) Candide by Voltaire - contributed to my personal sense of humor and belief that we live in neither the best nor worst of all possible worlds, but simply the most absurd of them.

3) The Art of War by Sun Tzu - Helped me understand the power of small effeciencies in large systems and the importance of metagaming.
Rhizomatic values and actions vs arborescent ones, de- and reterritorialization, the drawing of lines of flight, and nomadic war machines, more than anything else. I’m not sufficiently grounded in Marx or Freud to follow their narratives confidently, so my interpretations are probably overly simplistic; but I think they’d have approved of my taking the words and making them my own.

More than any of those individual terms though, I took from the book a sort of gestalt of expansive, additive, richly intellectual ideation, one based not on truth values, but in thinking new thoughts. In my edition, the translator’s introduction portrays D&G’s notion of a concept as a brick that should not be used to build a courthouse, but to be thrown through a window. This whole way of being in the world was enormously refreshing to me when I read it.

You had me believing that reddit was a bad place to work. When you complain that the CEO gave drugs to an employee in a cabin I started to question if your opinion matches my value system. When you were shocked they hosted other points of view then I completely changed my mind because reddit is a place for all viewpoints and thought reddit is starting to sound like a great place to work. Sounds like teams are implementing new features like crazy. The hiring freeze but reaction to losing some great candidates makes sense. Freeze hiring across the board but if great candidates are available grab them. Every rule should be reevaluated based on the situation. Sounds like he wants leaders and risk takers.. people willing to stick there neck out and ignore the boss if they feel it's the right call.

The Michelin Guide itself disagrees: “The Michelin Guide isn't in any of the Indian cities but that doesn't mean the red book is void of the subcontinent’s cuisine. In fact, Indian restaurants are listed in most of the territories with the Guide, some of which are in truly surprising cities. Tokyo for instance, is home to three Bib Gourmand rated Indian eateries, while the first Indian restaurant awarded with a Michelin star in Asia happens to be in Macau.”

When playing with casuals I actually don't mind communicating deductions that could strictly be made with a very simple application of the rules, such as your example. If someone discards a RED-4, there isn't a deep chain of logical reasoning to arrive at the conclusion that only 1 is left.

The best to teach casuals, I have found, is to play a round where you actually invert it have the experience player announce all of their reasoning (to demonstrate to the casuals the type of deductions that can be made).
