>> 4. Physical activities. Go for a 20 min run. It is boring, but reach the point of proper sweating and keep going for another 10-20 min.

Long time skateboarder, hung up in a 9-5, knees are starting to shit the bed at 30, and don't skate much any more as a result. Realized, fairly recently, that over the years my mental state was declining/flatlining largely in part to not exercising. Skating is just fun, provides a sense of freedom, used to be a huge part of my social life, and the physical activity kept my body and mind in shape, and it's totally left a negative impact not having that involved in 50%+ of my daily activities.

Going on a tangent, but I recently purchased a recumbent bike as a means of remaining stimulated/keeping boredom at bay while exercising, and it's hands down one of the best purchases I've ever made. It's a matter of going to YouTube and popping on a walkthrough on a framework/library/etc, the news, documentary, or anything of interest, and just peddling away for the next hour... Only problem is, it's hard to stop going once you start :/

Anyways, read through this thread and your mentions, as someone else has mentioned, are the most articulate descriptions of the struggles that one faces with ADD. Personally, I'm in an environment where many don't consider it "real" and look down upon those who have sought medical help as "meth addicts", and my only wish is for them to understand and also to be able to distinguish the medications from one another and not group them with illicit/highly toxic drugs.

Glad to have come across yours and many other's comments on the topic. Made my morning :)
It’s not pedantic. People have limited time, and stores have limited space, so how do you propose a product get chosen to occupy this time and space versus the competition?

At some point, someone has to market, advertise, or convince someone else that their product or service is worth the other person’s time, money, and space. Whether or not it’s between grocery store and brand, or brand and consumer, it’s still advertising/marketing.

Of course, it can be taken too far, but with rules such as requiring objectively true disclosures, we can strive to strike a balance.

Using maildir (the current standard for mail storage) with any kind of remote file system is not the best environment to have. Maildir stores every email into a separate file and then uses rename() for every flag change. Marking 1000 messages as "Seen/Unseen" or adding a flag or moving to Trash means 1000 rename() calls in the file system. Multiply that with thousands of users also logged in to the system and doing their own things - you get many millions of inodes and rename()'s flying around all over. Good luck keeping a consistent copy or not crashing the mail server software as it waits for some queued rename() call over network FS to finish (and expects it to take nanoseconds as this is how long it takes in a local FS) while blocking everything else.

I read the printed version of the book and found the nature and quality of the argument to fall somewhere between von Daniken ("we don't know exactly how the ancients built the pyramids, so it must have been aliens") and Thor Heyerdahl ("I can sail this thing so Polynesians must have come from Peru").

When I see that articles about the same thing in different languages state different and incompatible numbers, then I always think that this is an obvious and easily solveable problem; separate the data from the language and reference it in the text. That way each language uses the same data. This shouldn't just be done with numbers, but with dates, and other easily convertible information.

Yes, this will create conflicts as to which information is correct, but Wikipedia has had this problem since forever, and deals with it.
In your youth you had a lot more things ahead of you. If anything doing it when you are older is probably better.

The cries where far most than just taxation, this idea that taxation and taxation alone was the sole reason we violently rebelled agaist the Britsh empire shows a complete lack of understanding of American History.

Taxation was a reason, but even just a basic reading of the Declaration of Independence shows there are "a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism"

As such it was "their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security"
> millions of useful articles blocked because of few offending ones

Yes, freedom requires sacrifices. Freedom is not for feeble hearted.

This is an important point. I'd say keeping it in mind is more important for citizens of free countries today, than Chinese.

The sole fact that an argument like this being brought more and more in the West, where it wouldn't fly even 10 years ago, say just how much closer to China the West has become.
Considering how politicized wikipedia ( like most of tech industry has gotten in recent years ), doesn't shock me. Jimmy Wales has pretty much come out and said wikipedia will no longer be user driven but ideology driven. Which is one of the reasons the other co-founder of wikipedia has criticized wales and wikipedia.

Wikipedia is great for most generic topics, but for "sensitive" topics, it's pretty much propaganda. Considering how heavily wikipedia is censored by wikipedia itself, maybe a taste of their own medicine will make them change their position, but I doubt it.

Sadly, as more and more people use the internet, it'll be censored more and more by the elites in china, US, russia, EU, etc. What we are seeing is the internet becoming an overt tool of propaganda rather than a platform of discussion or exchange of ideas. Even worse, it seems like there are tons of support for censorship, especially amongst the young "educated" demographics.

> Container ships are a problem because they usually run on ridiculously dirty fuel, which ends up polluting the ocean. But they're also extremely energy-efficient on a mass/distance basis. A saner world would have them use cleaner fuel[0].

One reason that they burn dirty fuel is because we have that fuel, and the way our economy works, it's going to be burned somewhere. Making large ships with engines that can burn that fuel was intended to be a way of having the air pollution be produced away from inhabited land.

Having the ships work with cleaner fuel means the dirty fuel will be burned somewhere else, without further changes.

But I agree with your main point -- "sustainability" attracts so much momentum that people try to frame everything under that umbrella. E.g. suffering of animals raised for food production is a problem, but even less related to the things you mention. Still often seen as part of the same agenda as reducing our CO2 output.
But that's what makes this beautiful in my opinion, it can't really be simplified anymore and still do it's job!

It's bad code that has to be bad, it has to be complex, it's inherently difficult and needs to tiptoe around edge cases and avoid pitfalls that 99% of us don't know or have to care about. And yet it's able to do that and still be small, concise, and relatively easy to understand on a basic level, even if you can't quite understand the full reasoning behind why it was created that way on the surface.

I have similar feelings about the fast square root function from Quake III. It's horrible and ugly and confusing on the surface, but incredibly powerful, fast, and humbling when you really look at it. And it served a purpose that enabled the game to work!

Those people are shallow. It's one of the most beloved anthems globally. Go check the comments in renditions of the anthem in YouTube.

Nobody cares if it was connected to USSR or not, the same way people can admire Gagarin and not care about the USSR connection.

Not to mention that there are worse things to be connected to than USSR -- USSR had several stages, including a more open stage (with many social firsts) in the NEP era, and a more or less conventional and more open post-60s part, it wasn't just stalinism and suppression all the way.

How do I then find out about new products? New ideas that myself or my friends don't know about? Do I rely on the creator's friends spreading the word until I see it? Word of mouth only works so well.

Also, the supermarket analogy falls short when the number of "products" is extremely large and you rely on search. Seems more like the equivalent of going to a very large supermarket in the dark with a flashlight.
I wouldn't say "always". For example, he left Sweden the day before he was due to be interviewed with a view to arrest.

It should also be noted that Assange was finally interviewed in 2016 by Ingrid Isgren.

> If you're looking for a way to describe how good your government is and you come up with "Think how much worse it could be!" then I think the government has failed in its duty.

Yes, it would have, but many governments, including the UK, can be described in far better terms than this, and my point was that living under such a government can blind you to them.

The UK government does many things that it would not bother to do if it was only concerned with a wealthy elite (note that I said "only", obviously the government does plenty of things that are for a wealthy elite). It funds welfare programmes and state pensions that have no direct benefit to the rich elite. It enforces a minimum wage that have no direct benefit to the rich elite. It enforces worker rights and safety regulations that have no direct benefit to the rich elite. It has a progressive tax regime that has no direct benefit to the rich elite. It allows ordinary citizens a degree of freedom of movement, expression, political affiliation and democratic expression that has no direct benefit to the rich elite.

And yes, it's easy to find examples in all these areas where the implementation falls far short of the theory. But nonetheless there is still a huge difference between both the theory and implementation of government in the UK vs a country like China, North Korea, Iran, etc.

Criticism of every government is useful and important, but criticism should be grounded in reality. In a fair and reasonable assessment of what is done right as well as what is done wrong. Instead, most criticism I see of western governments by their own citizens is incredibly facile; uninformed by fact, and ignorant of both the history and reality of its political institutions, substituting nuance for lazy stereotypes and received opinions about the supposed inherent corruption and incompetence of all politics and politicians.

Numbers don’t really say much unless you pin them to what they’re measuring: they might not be calibrated against a percentile. For example, on a linear scale with 0 being “horrendous” and 100 being “insanely attractive”, I’d rate most of the people I know much closer to 70 than a 50: the average person could stand to look a lot worse.

> for large species such as those of the size of say humanity, it seems to have been exceptionally hostile.

That was your statement, not Wikipedia. What was that based on if not the incorrect implication about the size of mammals?

Nonetheless, I've already edited my post to make it clear that I was talking about the implications of the statement from Wikipedia.

> The pressure on mammals appears to have been consistently toward smaller size

If "the size minimum in the Coryphodon lineage occurr[ed] shortly after Paleocene-Eocene boundary" then the decrease occurred before the early Eocene, not during. The temperature actually continued to increase for several million years after the Paleocene-Eocene boundary.[1]

That pressure might have been due to the rapid changes at the Paleocene–Eocene Thermal Maximum, not temperature itself, and after the thermal maximum, size increased again even with the higher temperatures.

I think that’s the point of this framework, and others.
Strongly disagree

One reason google is an effective search engine is society has incentives to make their stuff findable. It’s not just magic algorithms. The perception of Google’s quality is as much because we all know when we write an article how to make informative titles and content, and knowledge if we’re too spammy we’ll be punished. Eventually black hat SEO suffers in the long run.

I work in search, and one huge reason a given companies enterprise or site search sucks is because content authors don’t care about making their content findable by search. A search system is a series of social incentives to make attractive, findable search results, not just technology.

I found it tremendously helpful to hear AD(H)D described as a set of _traits_, which is only a "disorder" to the degree that it interferes with your goals. There are many ways in which these traits can be advantageous. It's analogous to being multi-threaded, or async / parallel processing; it makes things more complicated and harder to debug, but when harnessed properly, becomes a strength.
There are some odd things about this article:

1.) A .marketing tld is an odd choice for someone who claims to run an SEO (or any kind of ad) agency.

2.) The writer has gone to great lengths to hide most references to the names of some offending competitors...yet, they left full meta descriptions. In other cases, the author seemed to mock company names.

3.) The article is poorly written and rife with grammatical errors. English is tough and we didn’t all grow up writing so, so it’s in poor taste to point out another’s writing issues. But, speaking as someone who is pretty good at SEO, at this point, the only ‘trick’ that works is to release and promote well written articles.

4.) Nothing in this is particularly black hat. Does anyone believe that setting a link’s height to 0 actually works in 2019? And the rest of the tactics are par for the course in a sketchy industry.

Between those four things, I just can’t trust the author. This article was hard to read, uninformative and ultimately serves as a horrible branding device. If an SEO is this poor at marketing him or herself, why??

That is, in fact, a crime.
I'm not sure why the charges keep being reported as "rape", when there's no suggestion he did any such thing. The charges relate to a Swedish law about not using a condom. The woman alleges that Assange removed the condom at some point during sex, without her consent to do so, and that she noticed afterwards.

Is it wrong? Yes, of course it is. Is it "rape"? No, but the media has repeated it often enough that now the general public think Assange is a rapist.
They did in fact file rape charges, but as is common they didn't do it immediately but after talking about the event with friends.

They have also, wisely avoiding much of the media, enlisted a lawyer to speak on their behalf on the matter, and it was the lawyers filing that led to the investigation being reopened again.

For a pretty complete chronology, see this page on the Swedish prosecution authority: https://www.aklagare.se/en/news-and-press/media/the-assange-...

Who says the public has turned? Only the media has turned and they are promoting a particular narrative.

IPCC are projecting 26cm-98cm rise by 2100. So it's more tell the grandkids to build inland a bit.
Wrong, I think white-hat SEO is in making sites that do rank well in search-engines because it fits the criteria the search engines have outlined for sites that are user-friendly: clear outlines, no usability-killing scripts, friendly urls, fast, etc...

In other words: sticking to the spirit of the law, not the letter.

It's true that SEO in isolation is a bit pathological on its own — it should always be thought as a part of a broader UX strategy.
