I disagree, depression is a disease, not a worldview. One can be cynical/pessimist/whatever and not have this affect his day to day, impede him from achieving goals, paralyze him or bring him to suicide. People in bad situations can have positive, active, non-depressive reactions. One can also be depressed and not care two bits about shitty people.
Fiction isn't evidence (except, perhaps, of basic plausibility, which is a pretty low standard). It does, however, contribute to hypothesis generation; the hypotheses thus inspired by fictional sources can then be tested out in the real world.
It's interesting. Maxwell has been around for decades. Publicly they were known for ultracapacitors (non-expert opinion is that this would be a sweet spot for regenerative breaking capture in Teslas). But seems like nothing worth acquiring the company over - there are other vendors and they could just set up a multi-year supplier contract.

There are some articles/rumors out there about dry electrode battery tech Maxwell was working on.
It's an economist's term. I do wonder about the benefit to FB users. I just got this from Wikipedia:

Consumer surplus is the difference between the maximum price a consumer is willing to pay and the actual price they do pay. If a consumer would be willing to pay more than the current asking price, then they are getting more benefit from the purchased product than they initially paid.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_surplus#Consumer_surp...

What would consumers actually pay out of pocket for an ad-free FB?

Alternatively: imagine there was a job that required you to type in your sensitive personal information and then a business took that information, sold (or accidentally gave) it to other businesses, used it to target ads at you, and leaked it to hackers.

Imagine also that this business exposed your sensitive personal information to other people who might use it to your economic and social benefit and/or to your detriment (though you cannot predict how or to what extent).

How much should you be paid to do that job? Can it be argued that FB actually offers consumers a deficit instead of a surplus?
If we only count people who care about their browser, then the IE user share will be much lower. In other words Microsoft can do anything with IE and it won't reduce the usage much. And Microsoft knows this, even though it tried to gain technical edge for some time.

Ya...I figured this out a while ago. I figure it's because it's easier to be angry than depressed, at least in the short term. When you're angry it feels like you're doing something, even if you're not. It takes your energy and attention away from whatever is making you depressed(likely something that can't really be changed easily) and focusses it on something tangible you can lash out at.

I've come to learn over the years it doesn't really help and you end up feeling worse after because you add on the regret about whatever you did when you were mad to the already existent depresseion and it ends up building up and continuing in a cycle that gets worse. The more angry you get, the more depressed you get which in turn makes you more angry next time.

This is what i've kind of learned over the years. I've also found I regret just about every decision i've ever made while angry.
Because that reduces the narcissistic supply

This is an interesting idea. Is this really possible though? Is it just a cost challenge?

I admittedly haven't read up a ton on fast charging options but I also don't think I've seen super-capacitors mentioned as an intermediary source in any discussions. Given the article mentions Maxwell wanting to get into the automotive industry, a fast charging use is probably still a long ways out at this point.
I’ve heard this argument before from climate change deniers. From a laypersons point of view I wonder why would you assume more CO2 makes trees grow more? More oxygen doesn’t make humans grow more, in fact it becomes toxic.
Certainly more fuel for the fire with Tesla bears, given that Maxwell has been in trouble with the SEC on multiple occasions for financial shenanigans:

Hiring side.

"Tell me more about what you did." Can be asked off almost any line of conversation. I'm seeking two outcomes:

1. Candidate's ability to quickly articulate a complex process, organization, problem, etc. to someone who has absolutely no understanding of it (i.e., me).

2. An understanding of their specific role and impact, as well as how the team worked together. You often have to coach people through the latter, as many candidates will default to the royal-we.

The other one I'm playing with is, "Let's say you start working here, but six months later, you leave for another opportunity. Why would you leave?"

I'm still figuring out the delivery on that one, but you get an interesting insight into what matters to the candidate.

A Shockley huge number of research papers are bunk. Couple guys from MIT made a fake paper generator and had to break the news because it went undiscovered for so long. Lipitor was promoted for years as a medicine that lowers the risk of stroke. My Mom and two of my close friends had stroke. Two of them are dead. Real confirmation research about Lipitor was done in Europe and Japan and found that it did little if anything to improve the actual outcome that matters.

So yes there are medical quacks everywhere online. Even and especially in places people don’t expect.
@forrestthewoods You have an incorrect link under the "Advent of Code" section. The first link reads

Couple of nitpicks that can change your bottomline first:
1) Add a description of the same in the Site Title (Also change the favicon while you are at it).
2) While the gold coin animation is cool, it fails to convert me or in simple words interest me enough to put in my email and Name.
3) Ask silly questions like : Would i signup for this if i came across this somewhere on the internet? Work your way backwards from there to build trust.

Now the philosophy part of marketing, think of it as doing things across different places to get a foot in the door with someone.
All of the times i think of the Someone(Who should i market to?) and How should i get a foot in their door(Push Notifications, Apps, Newsletters, Social Media and more).
Product marketing something that you will be actually doing is more about getting the foot in the door to get someone to use it to do X.

Hope this helps!
I read a ~fun story about public bus companies. They get a city as a contract, replacing a public service. Naturally they gather statistics, and naturally they cut the lines below some threshold. Soon enough half the city is void of bus, the other is now of greater value with lots of buses. A pleasant conclusion maybe.
In my head I refer to this perspective as "this toilet earth". And it's easy to get swept away by it. The antidote is in your own heart, and in the hearts of all people. An unselfish, hidden act of love. Taking actions that align with what we commonly understand to be good, kind and unselfish have literally changed the way I think and the way I see (most of the time, right?). I could never think myself into acceptance of the world, but by taking actions my perception has changed without any effort.
While I admire the author's choice, individual actions, even when considered as a whole, are not going to fundamentally change things without regulation or other higher force pushing against a company's practices. Which has more of an effect - fuel efficiency standards or people choosing to buy a hybrid?
Probably he could use a stolen identity to buy postage online.

> Double mistake: he habitually used the same postbox to mail his packages.

I suppose the problem here is scale and habit. To avoid using the same postbox you'd need to drive far, and send a lot at once. If you do small transactions like 120 USD it'll take a long time to make real money.
Maybe you could use a mail relay service in another country, but still..

That said, look at the resources this operation took, how likely was it that he would be caught? Most small fish like him probably won't be.
One broken link and one article from 8 years ago about a settled FICA case?

It's a $50B company acquiring a small, technically related company for $200M. I don't think even TSLA bears would care.

edit: perhaps you meant https://www.sec.gov/news/press-release/2018-48 (without the 'x')? It's never good news when there's an SEC investigation, but this seems relatively minor (channel stuffing under a Sales executive, and then a < $3M settlement by the company that it should have caught it).
Tesla just filed a patent for a new battery chemistry out of their Nova Scotia R&D facility that supports faster charging and superior longevity. I expect batteries to become supercapacitors faster than supercapacitors become batteries.

If supercapacitors have any role, it’s at EV charge stations to reduce demand charges from utilities. VW just agreed to buy a whole lot of Tesla batteries for this purpose at their Electrify America charge stations. Space is not an issue, as you can bury your storage under the charger stalls.
This Kirksen Dirksen video has one Sonoma landlord's brilliant take on this. On the surface, it's about stuff this guy has built, but underneath it's somewhat of a documentary about how regulations and laws progressed from post WWII to 2019, and how it has completely changed California's housing market, economy, and culture. 28 minutes, though, but I think it's worth it.

tl;dr is that houses were once dirt cheap, because fewer laws meant that people could innovate. Now, it takes $60k worth of permitting to even just add an addition to a house, and people are reduced to building sheds and outdoor "living rooms" on their deck.

4X games have had the "snowball" problem for as long as I've been playing them.

This rings true to me. My ex was often angry, and would eventually start taking that anger out on me. Then she went on antidepressants, and became much more pleasant to live with, and easier to talk to. Then she went off them again and we broke up :)
What have you tried? Have you tried online communities and forums? Reddit can be good if you find a related subreddit. I don't know much about board games though.

For what it's worth, there was nothing on the URL in your post that made me want to sign up or find out more as there's minimal information there. You need some images of the board game, a description of what makes it interesting, a video, some quotes of what people have said about it etc.

It doesn't seem that they are. And as for the claim in the article that "no-one is begging", anyone who has spent more than 15 minutes in Helsinki knows that's not true. Most of the people begging might have come from abroad, but they're there. And when it comes to the statistics, I found this reference:

"In addition to the homelessness visible in statistics, the existence of undocumented migrants
is a phenomenon connected to homelessness. An undocumented migrant is a person, who
does not have a legal right of residence and whose residence in Finland is not known to or
permitted by the authorities. Different estimates by experts on the number of undocumented
migrants in Finland vary between 500 and 3,000 people [...]"

> What is "consumer surplus"? By this do the authors mean the total benefit to FB users?

It's a concept from welfare economics (economic benefit at an aggregate level). Consumer surplus is the excess benefit a consumer receives from purchasing a good (willingness to pay - price paid). For example, if you're willing to pay $100 annually to use Facebook, and you actually pay $0, then the consumer surplus would be $100.

Assuming that putting a hold on the layer of abstraction is no harder than putting a hold on your mail, what you're describing is harder than it would be with the abstraction layer. It's also less effective, as it doesn't handle packages sent by other people, unexpected delays in shipping, or unplanned trips.

Hi there. I wrote the article. You bring up a fair point but unfortunately there isn't any other public data of high quality that can be referenced. I hit LinkedIn's APIs to try and get data on historical job postings for new roles containing "growth hacker" in it but the data is really poor and not useable. I'm also writing from experience + anecdotes having worked on growth for 10+ years and advised a variety of consumer companies on growth. The anecdotes suggest to me it is falling out of favor. I wish there was more data to reference otherwise I would have.

That's pretty much what I was going to reply: Being beneficial to an individual and being beneficial to a particular gene are not always the same thing. Having a particular gene in a population may be a net benefit to the group (and gene) even if it could hinder a specific individual under certain gene combinations or societal conditions.

As an example, an individual who likes tinkering with weapons instead of socializing may come up with a novel weapon modification. That individual may die earlier than average due to lack-luster social skills, but the improved weapon makes the tribe thrive and grow, spreading the gene that made the weapon-obsessed individual, which was probably already in the population.

That's because the public sector doesn't build hardly anything anymore. They pay the private sector to build it.

With little in the way of warranties, or so public perception goes. So then the public sector has to pay even more money to get stuff fixed, and contractors have little to no incentive to increase quality. Germany has warranties on roads. Their roads are supposed to be good. Italy isn't as good about warranties on public projects. Their road projects are supposed to be quagmires of corruption.

The US? In the past, the practice had been for 1 year warranties on road projects, but following the example of countries like Germany, Spain, Denmark, Sweden, and Great Britain, federal officials have been trying to extend that out to 5 years for all federally funded road projects. New Mexico had a 20 year warranty on one project.
