Faire (YC W17) Is Looking to Hire Business Operations Leads
NOTE: Sorry it wasn't quite clear from my question, but I was hoping to explore books that were more focused on a single model, not books that teach or enumerate many models.

My thinking was that the reference-style books are easy to forget and enjoyable but subject to being forgotten specifically because you spend less time with any single model. Some books are closer to survey courses, reviewing a lot of material. They aren't bad, they can be fun. But the books I cited above specifically feel focused on single concepts, and thus "teach" them quite well imo.

So, I am specifically curious about books that go deep, evaluate, or really drive home individual models.
I have suspected for years that I may have ADHD, and the thread is slowly confirming my suspicions. (ofc, it can only truly be confirmed by an authorized professional)

1. Lazy - CHECK

2. can’t even stand the thought of a task, class, or activity I’m not interested - CHECK

3. My hobby background is ridiculously all over the place - CHECK

4. My leg never stopped bouncing, helpful when I played music to keep time - CHECK. Literally air double-bass drumming to some really high tempo progmetal as I type this.

5. I’m quick to temper and just as fast back to moving on. - 1st NEGATIVE

6. Don’t tell me a detailed story of how to get there, just give me the highlights - 2nd NEGATIVE

7. I'll take a break to read an article and hours will go by before I realize what's happened - CHECK

8. I'm horrible at completing simple, repetitive tasks. I'm terrible at time management - CHECK

9. Lost hours / while day at a time when I was doing something interesting - CHECK

10. creating rituals - Literally follow 90% of the rituals you already mentioned.

At this point if I was diagnosed with ADHD, I don't know if I'd be annoyed or relieved at the revelation.
I feel you. When I was first trying to get diagnosed (in small-town Virginia) it was really hard finding someone who could help.

You'll probably want to figure out if it makes sense to convince one of your existing doctors to consider it, or if it makes sense to find a new doctor who can help you. Odds are good that you'll need to do the latter anyway, as your primary care doctor is going to refer you to a psychiatrist for an actual diagnosis. So one thing to think about is just asking for a referral.

One way to shortcut the actual finding-of-a-doctor would be to do a search for "adult ADHD" on Yelp for your area. Hopefully, someone's reviewed a doctor and used that phrase, and you can figure out if the review is for a doctor who'd be good to connect with.
Yep, I think we're aligned on all this! One lens on my aspirations is to create a "stable" of "moves" like "including figures" which can be applied contextually to better align with the way readers think and learn.

This is the issue. There will be billions spent on 5G but no one wants to invest in doing an extensive reliable study that would perhaps cost 0.1% of total cost. Lobbyist have already convinced government that there are no health threats due to 5G. I would ask how you can make that kind of assertions when 5G isn't even deployed or no reliable citable studies have been done. Now Russia factor will make things even more worse because US will vehemently assert that there are no threats only because Russia is saying other way. There is a low probability of health issues but if there is one the cost would be huge and effect large part of generation. It's like selling radioactive toothpastes in late 1900s. No one thought there was a health threat in putting radium in something you brush your teeth with.

> At least with commercial self-driving vehicles, there is a responsible legal entity (the car manufacturer).

That’s not correct, the responsible legal entity in self-driving cases is likely to be the “backup” driver. For example, Uber was not found criminally liable for the Arizona accident a couple years back that killed a woman, but the driver could face charges of vehicular manslaughter:
https://www.insurancejournal.com/news/west/2019/03/06/519721...

Uber has settled the civil case out of court with the woman’s family on the driver’s behalf, there is nothing they can do for the criminal case (besides provide representation for the driver)

Party fowl also has a more expansive menu. Hattie B's is still the best though, I would just go there at like 3:30 when there would be a very short line.

I really like spicy food and don't think I'm a wimp, but the medium intensity hot chicken I had at Party Fowl was REALLY fucking hot too. Much hotter than the same level at Hattie B's. If you have 5 heat-levels on your chicken with medium being the second lowest, you should really adjust it so that medium is tolerable to regular people. I swear that stuff was hotter than anything else I've ever had, including lots of ghost pepper flavored products and all the other spicy food I had living in Nashville

Another approach to reducing discarded needles is to open needle-exchanges and safe-injection sites (e.g. Vancouver[1]). This also reduces infection from sharing needles, overdose deaths, and paramedic resources.

Andrew, you need to read the book "Driven" by Douglas Brackmann and Randy Kelley. You will quite likely find out that the book describes you well. If I'm guessing right, you are one of the "driven", people with certain genes expressed differently from 90% of the population. ADHD is just one of the possible visible symptoms, there are certain other markers that are important (some of which you exhibit: you are a founder/entrepreneur for example).

Give the book a try. It changed my life (and I don't say that lightly). If I'm right, it might change yours.
That may be partially true, but there is a grounded sense of accountability in any case. I'm sure you can find issues and your occasional booger eater with any restaurant but, in my experience working in such places, typically those jobs are micromanaged in the sense that the entire routine is choreographed from start to finish to save costs and reduce liability.

We can see egregious examples of displacing any form of accountability in the gig economy to the point that they are already immediately met with distrust and disdain when they encroach on another market.
I'm long-diagnosed (and medicated) ADHD, but this article still went straight to the wife as a great way for her to see a little more into my head.
I don’t know that that’s true. I doubt you could do this sort of redesign simply in an LLVM backend because a “hot” compiler would work differently at so many levels of abstraction. I think an easier place to start would be a self contained compiler with a little less scope than llvm. There we could figure out the patterns, find a clean set of internal APIs and make some sweet demos. And then with that approach the same task in LLVM.
I suspect you know better than I do. 10 years ago I took a lot of the busy-work classes at GCC. And yeah, the education is not great. "Business math" and their persistent description of integrals as "the area under the curve" is infuriating. That said, STEM seems to be one of the programs where state universities are more appropriate in terms of earnings-to-cost benefit.

But damn, that's some odd theology on the packages. His "All-One-God-Faith". But see Chapman (2016) Dr. Bronner’s "Magic Soaps" Religion: A Tikkun Olam Response to the Holocaust, the Atom Bomb, and the Cold War.[0]

> Abstract: This essay explores the historical and cultural context in which the late Emanuel Bronner began marketing Dr. Bronner's Magic Soaps, a natural brand known for its unusual labels that promote an "All-One-God-Faith" solution for saving "spaceship Earth." An amalgamation of Judaism and American pluralism, Dr. Bronner's plan for world peace was a response to the anxieties caused by the Holocaust, the advent of atomic weaponry, and the ongoing Cold War. Although Dr. Bronner was an escapee from an insane asylum and came to be regarded as a kook, it should be recognized that he conformed to the behaviour of a prophet or holy fool. His message corresponds with tikkun olam, the Jewish vision of "repairing the world." Dr. Bronner’s natural soaps and the accompanying call for global harmony served as a purification ritual for the American counterculture youth of the 1960s and 1970s.

Cheaper debt can be canceled out by higher prices. The fact that home values correlate so strongly with interest rates is very tellling. I think the net effect is simply higher asset prices and a greater portion of society's capital locked up in land. Easy money via debts is making every household more levered and more exposed without fundamentally improving access to housing.
AD(H)D is a complicated and commonly misunderstood condition. Despite its name, it does not mean people with it have a deficit of attention. It involves (amongst other things): atypical dopamine production/regulation, and issues in the Prefrontal Cortex (where executive functions are handled).

Because of this, it's not unusual for other conditions to cause people to experience similar symptoms to those with AD(H)D. The main difference, is that for people with AD(H)D, the symptoms are chronic and disruptive.

Many symptoms caused by the executive function component can also be experienced by those who have theirs inhibited. This can be because they are: tired, stressed, drunk etc.

When reading this or other articles on AD(H)D, if you resonate with the symptoms I urge you to read up and potentially get diagnosed.

Just please don't assume that "everyone has some kind of ADHD" or that "ADHD is't real" because some symptoms are shared by other conditions, and can often seem like regular parts of the human condition.
I’ve gone through a similar transformation just by getting older, I think.

As a kid I’d play violent video games and my mother would get upset, claiming that I was becoming desensitized to violence. But I think it might actually be the other way around: kids lack sensitivity to begin with because they don’t have any context for the violence they’re enacting. As you get older and death starts to feel more real, the idea of a WW2 combat simulator, for example, begins to feel a bit tasteless.
The Soviets dominated the Olympics, but they produced 25 Nobel Prizes to America's 375. I might agree with you were the numbers less extreme.

A good side read is the Street Response team proposed by Street Roots, funding for which is in the proposed city budget: https://news.streetroots.org/2019/03/15/portland-street-resp...

Clean and Safe only works in downtown and often works in service to businesses who complain, and homelessness is an issue across the city. Portland police often resort to ineffective sweeps to clear camps, and are prone to deploying force when their limited de-escalation skills fail (most often when faced with mentally ill people, some of whom aren't homeless).

The Street Response proposal pitches teams comprised of a firefighter (unsafe heating and electrical hacks are common) and a person specifically trained in de-escalation and dealing with behavioral health issues. A centralized dispatch would send these teams to respond to non-violent calls--like sleeping campers, noise disturbances, minor medical incidences, and illegal fires--intentionally without police backup to assess and address the situation. The teams would roll in SUVs capable of reaching off-road sites and can help carry belongings to a shelter, legal campsite, family member, or treatment.

(I ask this because my own dog has the fastest moving tail I have ever seen, and I hope that is not a danger to her).
Does it?

Let’s say I edit a function, and my editor (attached at the hip to my compiler) knows which bytes have been changed. So it knows my change was isolated to a function in a .cpp file. The compiler has cached the compilation environment from the last build, and with that in mind it could recompile just this one function. Then we need to binary patch the function - which essentially requires allocating disk space inside the binary executable. If the previous compiler pass left some free space, we could allocate out of that and mark the old function memory as reusable. Then we need to update CALL pointers - either store them in a list or have every function do indirect calls through a table, and then you just need to update the table entry. If you want to get fancy you could do better than function level granularity, but I think that alone would give us sub-ms builds.

I wouldn’t want to change the process for release builds - but for incremental debug builds I don’t see where you’re getting an N^3 from.

I've never had Adderall because it's not for sale in .au for some reason. I've tried Ritalin and Modafinil and Dexamphetamines. Ritalin didn't help much and gave me headaches, but Modafinil is much better. It doesn't help with the ADHD quite as well as Dex does, but all the annoying side effects are far less pronounced as well. Unfortunately in .au you can't get it subsidised for ADHD, only narcolepsy, so I've stuck with Dex just because it's so much cheaper, despite it being way worse for you.
The attention switching idea seems consistent with my own experiences. I dated a girl with pretty severe ADHD; whenever she watched Arrested Development (a very fast paced sitcom with a lot happening) she would turn into a zombie and be almost entirely oblivious to any outside stimuli.

My partner went to a Waldorf school grade 1 through 12, and whenever we discuss what school was like it blows my mind that she has no idea about just how horribly "regular" schools are at fostering creativity and interest. She has been diagnosed with ADHD as an adult because she has a REALLY hard time with handling everyday life, but for her school was never a problem because of the "fluid" philosophy of Waldorf.

While I like Sir Robinson's talk, for me The Seven-Lesson Schoolteacher is what really struck a cord: http://www.swaraj.org/multiversity/gatto_7lesson.htm. I always felt like the school system (in Sweden at least) mainly wanted to students to fit into it, rather than the other way around. So as someone who is gifted according to WISC and WAIS, but who lacks the executive functioning and skill to do anything except whatever happens to be the most interesting at the moment, it was just hell. Even now at age 36 my body goes stiff whenever someone mentions homework O_O

Midwest US. If I felt like they were good at what they're for, I would probably use them more. My experiences have been bad. We're veering quite a bit off-topic here, but the last time I went to a doctor it was because I was shitting blood. I figured it was probably hemorrhoids based on googling, but was worried of an off-chance of cancer and decided to get it checked out. They had me collect a stool sample and come back two weeks later. I did, and the first thing they did was throw the sample away without examining it -- they said they shouldn't have even asked for me to collect a stool sample to begin with and apologized. Cool doc, thanks for having me scoop my shit into a cup for no reason. Then they charged me ~$300, had me get naked, and the doctor asked why I wasn't circumcised without me bringing it up and encouraged me to get circumcised multiple times (in my 20s) while I repeatedly said I wasn't interested and that it's supposed to harm sensitivity, and then he finally proceeded to stick a camera up my ass. The results were ultimately inconclusive, he said it was probably hemorrhoids but that he couldn't see them with the camera and verify that. So I'm out ~$300, my collecting-my-own-shit-in-a-little-cup virginity, my arguing-with-a-doctor-about-circumcision virginity, and my having-a-camera-shoved-up-my-ass virginity, and I don't know anything more than my free google searches told me two weeks earlier. 0/10, would not visit again. YMMV.

No, it's not lost on me that I admitted to previously consuming 3/4 of a gallon of Monster a day two comments ago and now I'm posting about shitting blood, but I think there were other contributing factors (notably bad lifting technique).

Edit: More on topic, if I don't care about the yes/no checkbox of whether they think I have "ADHD," and I don't want to get on the medication (which I've tried, informally researched, and made a fairly informed decision about), what can professional advice provide me that internet research about symptoms and ways of coping with them can't?
Hell yeah this sounds like my kind of place! I'm so used to restaurant food not actually being all that spicy that I always order whatever's spiciest, and then every so often I find a place that actually takes spicy seriously and it just about kills me (in a good way). It turns from eating for enjoyment to eating tot accomplishment at that point, which frankly is more memorable.
France's power is cheap by European standard [0]. So there isn't an economic issue.

Going by order-of-magnitude of input materials, if it is an environmental nightmare it is still going to be better than the mining process for raw materials going in to solar panels and whatever else. AFAIK they all use rare earths that get mined in China and refined with some horrible process. Pure volumes of solar panels suggest the incidental environmental damage will be worse from, eg, trampled grass and land disturbed.

So it isn't an environmental or an economic nightmare relative to the alternatives. In what sense is it a nightmare? It seems to be working for France.

I’m not trying to convince you, but the a-ha moment for me was when I was watching George talk about reverse-engineering the firmware for part of the cruise control in his car, and after decompiling it, he found that there was no functionality for the manufacturer to verify that the firmware had been written properly when flashed by the manufacturer. So just because a big, expensive car company made something, doesn’t mean there is any redundancy or cross-checking.

By the way, the only cars you can install OpenPilot onto are cars that already have lane keeping assist (i.e. a camera that watches the lines) and adaptive cruise control (i.e. a millimeter wave radar that makes sure you don’t get too close to the car in front of you). So OpenPilot is just a vastly improved version of the software that those guys who didn’t write a firmware checksum routine wrote.
