A few weeks ago, one of my favorite artists came out with a new album. The day I tried it out, I played through it several times. My brain was invigorated, my blood was pumping, and I had an abnormally productive day of coding.

That day of productive coding produced tens of thousands of dollars of value for my company. That's value that, at least partially, wouldn't exist without the artist's new album.

My company will reap benefits in the form of added revenue. I'll reap benefits in the form of bonuses and promotions. But the artist, who produced this value as an externality, will only receive value if I decide to buy their CD out of gratitude.

The gap between artists producing value for society, and being rewarded for that value, is a shame, and we're worse off for it. I can't think of a solution, but I also can't shake the feeling that this disconnection of value is at the heart of the "making a living" issue.
You've got this somewhat wrong. It's true that many psychiatrists these days focus on med management rather than therapy, but until maybe 30 years ago psychiatrists were actually the only mental health professionals who were allowed to become psychoanalysts, the folks who more or less pioneered talk therapy.

Also CBT/DBT are not forms of psychodynamic therapy (which is what people usually think of when they think of talk therapy). That's why they're called "behavioral" therapies.

Since I read the 1950's era Popular Mechanics books my dad has had since I was born, there have been $StarTrekTech battery prototypes that totally change the battery paradigm and just need to get turned into a product. Then they fade away, never to be heard from again.

It is an interesting viewpoint. One of the advantages of Twitter is that people can weight, or Twitter itself can weight who is posting and sharing that information. For instance, if Fred Wilson writes something about startups or VC, I generally find it interesting, if he writes about public markets, I largely ignore it. Originally, page rank probably solved quality of the source well enough, but as more interesting content is appearing in podcasts or niche, subscription blogs, does the approach need to be drastically different? What I mean is rather than Google's algorithm likely boosting the popularly clicked and shared post, "10 Things I learned as a VC Intern", should Google's ML algorithm weight that click based on the expertise of the search user or subject matter density, etc.? Like should Linus Torvalds clicking on a link be given far more importance on a technical/software related query than myself?
Sadly you're mistaken. Not many current American adults experienced them growing up even though school shootings have been happening for decades, but in recent years they've started to become as commonplace as fire drills in American primary schools.

"Nine out of ten public schools now drill students and teachers to respond to mass shootings, according to the National Center for Education Statistics." [regrettably via Vox: https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2018/2/16/17016382/s... but still, seems legit]

I think it is more than that.

I think the perception of time is the rate of change of your brain state. Intuitively, this makes sense-- if I double the rate of your neurological activity, the world will seem to move half as fast. Similarly, if I freeze the activity of your brain and resume it some time later, you'd perceive no time to have passed.

But I think it also applies on longer timescales, too, and to variations in the rate and degree the brain transforms itself-- If you repeat the same thing every day, your brain changes little, and those identical, indistinguishable experiences collapse onto each other in your brain's compressed representation. That is to say, if each week of your life is the same, the situation approaches one where I took your beginning-of-the-week brain state and transplanted to the end of the week without any changes. I should predict that under that circumstance you would not experience the passage of time.

On the other hand, learning and experiencing dramatically new things forces your brain to change substantially, and the kind of cognitive delta that would normally occur over weeks or months of experiential stasis can happen in days or hours.

Once people leave school, many years of routine can go by without many clear perceptual markers. I am noticing this in myself, and it's become a nontrivial motivator for making substantial life changes.

Compounding this is the fact that neurology slows down as we age. I recall seeing a chart that suggested that a 60 or 70 year old will have roughly half (? maybe worse) the reaction time of a 20 year old. That suggests that 8 hours for a 20 year old would feel like 4 hours to a 70 year old. The study did not examine children under 18, but extrapolating the trend would suggest that children's brains are substantially faster still. Perhaps an hour for a young child is neurologically equivalent to 4 or 5 hours for a middle aged adult.

All this does is further disarm the populace and makes it even easier to carry out an attack. Australia or New Zealand could have an attack like this happen tomorrow, it's not like they are able to keep handguns and drugs away from your normal criminal gang member there, let alone a determined terrorist.
Thanks Dan, much appreciated.
Ah, remember when all that gun control prevented a group of armed terrorists from massacreing nearly 100 people in Paris? Or when Brazil abolished private firearm ownership - did that make the country any safer? It seems to be the opposite - firearm homicides increased to over 60,000+ yearly (compared to 10,000-15,000 in the US anually.)

The US is far safer than it was in the late 80s/early 90s when barely anybody owned dreaded "assault weapons" and when concealed carry wasn't a thing.

More guns = less crime.

Homicide rates in the northern US are comparable to that of Canada.

As many have said before, transmitting the hash simply turns the hash into the password itself. Anyone who has your hash, has your password.

The biggest reason for hashing is that, even if an attacker gets access to the hashed passwords, they still can't use them to log in. Client-side hashing completely and utterly undoes that benefit.

Passwords in transit should be protected by SSL. Not a hash.
People made this same comment about the Apple Store when it first opened, and now it dominates retail.

Not sure if you ever saw the early versions, but the Macs only took up a small part of the store - most of the space was non-Apple gear.

With media, I expect the same change could happen - or it could simply be like music, where Apple's dominance drove the business.

Either way, if Tim Cook is focused, this will be huge (but probably not on day 1).

> There's social housing, but the median salary is too high to be eligible for it.

It's worth noting that it's the salary at the time that you get the housing that counts, which creates a perverse situation where people now making say €200k/yr are still paying well below say €750/month in social rent. I've met some of those people.

So we've got a social program that benefits both those of lesser means, and also some very rich people.

But I guess "the poor (including because they're students) should get cheap housing" and "nobody should be forcibly evicted from social housing" are both things that sound good in isolation.

> So say you're 25 years old, there is no prospect of moving out of your parents' home unless you leaves the city you're born and raised in.

This sucks, but honestly it's hard to sympathize with the crocodile tears of
people most responsible for creating and benefiting from the system that's now biting them in the ass.

The parents of that 25 year old have likely been either benefiting from the rising property prices of a house they own, or have been getting government subsidized housing for decades.

The real solution of aggressively increasing the housing supply would have gone against their short-term interests, and now it's gotten so bad that their kid can't apply for social housing at 18 and get it after they finish university (which used to be the case).

Meanwhile, families who for whatever reason didn't have established roots in Amsterdam but work there have been commuting on the train or bus for 1-2 hours every day for decades, since they weren't in a situation to vote themselves and their kids into a benefit granted by the municipality.
I've often wondered the same about Staten Island.

> A credentialed economist should put a stake through the heart of the heart of MMT.

MMT is, AFAICT, pretty soldily grounded recitations of facts about fiat money that are widely recognized.

It's been embraced by advocates of monetizing fiscal affairs because, well, it says that there is virtually unlimited short-term capacity to do that in a fiat-money system. But it's exactly that temptation in a fiat money system that motivated the strong separation we currently have between fiscal and monetary policy, which includes the whole structure of government financing operation g as if it were more like a normal participant in the economy.

OTOH, the entity charged with fiscal policy in the US has either been actively hostile to real needs or asleep at the switch for most of the last couple decades, and monetary policy alone, as currently structured, directs money initially into what is often the wrong place, though fiscal policy can help move it to the right place. The problem with the MMT driven “solution” is it involves concentrating both fiscal and monetary policy in the hands of Congress, and if Congress wasn't being completely worthless we wouldn't have the problem people are turning to MMT to fix.

If Congress were doing good work with fiscal policy but the Fed was screwing it up with poorly chosen or simply negligent monetary policy, then there would be a problem that the way MMT is being invoked would present a solution to.
Very nice.

To be fair, I don’t think the original poster ever suggested that ads were the biggest problem they faced in the world.

You’re not wrong in some respects, but I think it’s useful to have a dialogue on the subject of increasing (and perhaps invasive) advertising, rather than dismiss it because there are also people starving in the world.
I think psychiatry is in for an interesting surprise soon when it discovers that the information it lacks has already been uncovered through an extensive series of informal experiments being conducted in a collective, ad-hoc, slapdash fashion through a seemingly unrelated field - that is, the world of recreational psychedelics. There's a whole global community of pioneers who have been quietly working hard at understanding the insides of their own brains for at least two generations now, and they've made a lot of progress. To make things even more interesting, many of these people are connected with the world of technology and computing, which has been expanding rapidly into an understanding of consciousness through the work on neural networks, deep learning, and artificial intelligence. All of these worlds are about to collide, in the next 10-20 years, and something really interesting is about to happen.
While I'd love to switch, I switched to google's a couple years ago, and the killer feature for me, is free mail forwarding with the domain (no mail server setup). I've got a bunch of domains I don't really use anymore, but want to be able to receive the mail for a couple addresses.

May consider moving most of my domains over all the same though.
Correct - third party software is needed (as far as I know) for DoH.
Some number of Facebook employees ABSOLUTELY knew this was going on, quietly talked amongst themselves, maybe brought it up, but then it was knocked back down. 100% I guarantee it. One company I worked for had plain-text passwords and it was quietly discussed (or not discussed) until we EVENTUALLY fixed it (years). Fuck facebook with a rusty pitchfork. This is the tip of the iceberg with their data-handling practices. I bet their systems are fucked throughout.

I can confirm this.

At work I helped create a PowerPC interpreter running on x86-64 that was faster than anything else I could find. In many cases, it was faster than actual PowerPC hardware. Our first two attempts at a JIT couldn't beat the interpreter.

Eventually we did it. We had to, since the PowerPC system being emulated had real-time software running on a beast of a CPU. It was quad-core, 1.5 GHz, out-of-order, with multiple pipelines. For reasons, all 4 cores needed to be emulated on a single host core.

Modern Psychiatry in a nutshell:

Those ads are relevant, because they are context-specific and purchased directly from the publisher. If I pick up The Economist, I will expect to see ads for some luxury watch brand, as well as highly specialized job postings for executives somewhere.

If I go to the Economists' website, I will see ads for:

- a university website I went to that dropped a remarketing cookie into my browser

- the shitty dating app full of bots and escorts, that would never have passed a QC review at a publication. Yet they are common on FB and TW (maybe Google Ads is different).

- the tshirt website that displays some machine-generated text based on what it thinks my interests are.

These are what I consider intrusive ads. When I see one, I don't want to have to think about what trail I left that led to these particular ads being shown to me.
I think you should charge more for Premium, especially for the top two plans.

> fractional-reserve-banking

You are confusing this with something else. If there was no fractional-reserve-banking under the gold standard, then why did bank panics happen? If the bank had $1 million loaned out, and also had $1 million of gold in its vaults, then why would anyone panic? Yet bank panics were common. And that's because the banks all engaged in fractional-reserve-banking -- if they had $1 million in gold in their vaults, they would make loans worth $5 million.

"At last count, more than 12 percent of Americans ages 12 and older were taking antidepressants. The chemical-imbalance theory, like the revamped DSM, may fail as science, but as rhetoric it has turned out to be a wild success."

The psychological "trauma model" for mental disorders is a compelling counterpoint to the chemical-imbalance theory. The wikipedia article contains some evidence and links to related research:

"A 2005 meta-analysis of schizophrenia revealed that the prevalence of physical and sexual abuse in the histories of people diagnosed with psychotic disorders is very high and has been understudied. This literature review revealed prevalence rates of childhood sexual abuse in studies of people diagnosed with schizophrenia ranging from 45% to 65%"

The best way to gain a hold into a market that already has many players is to make all products available easily under yours and add some values your competitors can't provide (convenience, simplicity, single-point of access and purchase).

Some people are willing to pay a bit more for that, and once you grow big enough, you can put pressure on the content providers to accomodate more of your requests.

And you could also start being a content provider yourself and add some exclusives to your established userbase to retain them.
