ADHD is the realest mental disorder out there. It has well defined medical symptoms, diagnosis criteria, and clinical treatment is more effective than with depression.

Saying “oh mayyyybe ADHD isn’t real” makes no sense unless you believe all mental disorders are fake.
This sounds familiar to me. I've been trying to launch a blog for years. It goes in cycles. I start building a site, learning a web framework or static site generator, writing CSS and JavaScript, coming up with topic ideas, etc. Then, when the interesting learning part is over, I get bored and it just sits there for a few months until I start again with a different idea for the design or typography. It's a pattern I observe in several areas of my life.

(It's not that I'm not suited or capable of doing the writing part of blogging; I make a living ghost writing other people's blog articles and ebooks.)
I think it's surprising that people are saying the code is too sensitive to view. We live in a world in which an increasingly large portion of code is open-source. Is it really that big of a deal if a prospective hire gets a glance at your CRUD web app code?

People don't have photographic memories. They aren't going to go home and write this stuff out.

Granted, there are areas where code is perhaps too sensitive for even a quick look. But I think those are the exception.

Integrated circuit design is a vast field with many different areas of expertise.

Given your goal, your best bet is to buy an FPGA development board and learn an HDL (Verilog or VHDL), and start experimenting.

When you to deeper in the field and more over to ASICs, then you would have to learn the details of synthesis, placement, routing, DFT (design for test) and a whole bunch of other details, which usually exceeds the willpower of a hobbyist :-)

And then if you want to really go all the way into the latest and fastest transistor nodes, then you go into custom circuit design and custom gate layout, which is not fun at all.
There real challenge is remembering them, and determining which to use and investing the time to use them.

Your solution, which has unfortunately become the status quo, is to allow criminals to freely operate in camps in plain view.

I am correct for wanting criminals held responsible for their crimes.

You want thieves and rapists to freely live on my public pathways.

Some homeless I've met say they moved to Portland because the camping laws are not enforced.

Every illegal camper is breaking the law. The local government decided not to enforce the law.
Riffing off this a little, it's kinda odd that there are two different ways of specifying multiple passages, depending on the book.

Shouldn't:

<scripture-passage

reference="Genesis 45:5-8, Genesis 50:20">
</scripture-passage>

Really be a scripture-list?
>"I don't think you quite understand just how big of a difference not having wires makes."

I've been through the whole rigmarole of Bluetooth earpieces, wireless headphones, all of that stuff.

The only ones I've kept for years and use every day, never needing a recharge, never needing to be replaced? My inexpensive wired earphones, which sound better than any earphones Apple has ever made and will never run out of battery. Wrapping up the cable takes 2 seconds and they go in my pocket, always ready to go. No planned obsolescence, unlike the Airpods.

>"It's as if it has unlimited battery."

Until the battery dies, as mentioned in the article. Then it's just a useless wasteful trinket that has to replaced.

>"You can lose anything - including your phone, or wallet.

Neither of those are precariously balanced in my ears, just waiting for a bump while biking to knock them loose.
Business Growth Strategies to Apply in 2019
Her testimony is sought as a witness. She is being sent to jail for refusing to testify, not as any sort of criminal punishment.

Her previous conviction (and rules against double jeopardy) actually somewhat weaken her position, because she can no longer invoke the 5th amendment.

Edit: sorry for elucidating the actual legal basis. It seems to have been mistaken as an argument as to wether Manning deserves jail or not.

They found that an annual growth rate of 3.5% would use up an eighth of the solar system’s realistic resources in 400 years. At that point, humanity would have only 60 years to apply the brakes and avoid exhausting the supply completely."

the idea that sustained practice till you become fluent in the use of specific mental models is missing in much of the literature.

Just like learning any other skillset, using mental models effectively takes a lot of work.

This is often the missing key to effective use. It is one thing to read about a mental model (say Donella Meadows's systems thinking), and be able to recall the material from memory and quote it and so on. It is quite another to be able to apply that model (here systems thinking) to real life situations and get useful results.

I know many people who can quote chapter and verse of literature about mental models, but their thinking remains confused and ad hoc when it comes to dealing with real life problems.

To practice, one can also apply mental models to case studies/situations from the past and compare to the outcome predicted by the model and the actual outcome.(To be fair, there is a risk of making mental models fit the known outcome here, so one has to be aware of that)

EDIT: (not the same as mental models, but since someone mentioned ARIZ/TRIZ above) Edward De Bono's "Serious Creativity" and "Lateral Thinking for Management" (yes terrible title) are full of thinking tools that can be practiced systematically. Most of his books are repetitive and have varying ratios of fluff to core material, but these two together have most of his useful ideas.

I always thought script-kiddies were people who wrote in scripting languages rather than languages that had to be compiled.
Your idea to use a union of function pointers also allows a much broader range of function parameter types to be used. When you call a function that used a K&R declaration, the arguments are subject to default promotion e.g. short to int, so you can't call "int f(short)" if it is only declared "int f()". Your idea doesn't have this problem.

Your correcct. Not the fault of the author, so I still like the article. But I think you are correct.
As other comments have noted:

varargs functions require at least one non-vararg parameter.

You struggled through the university, but managed to get a degree in computer science. That's awesome. Now focus on training your focus. Attention is a complex neurological activity that's more than the sum of its parts. You must learn to take possession of your mind in a vivid manner of one out of many possible trains of thought.

Get enough sleep, exercise, read as much as you can on ADHD/ADD, listen to your body, and talk to a specialist. Focus on one thing - improving your focus and attention over time. Who you are and what you do is mostly the sum of what you focus on. Rapt attention is important to achieving your career goals. Take some time out to work on it. Finally, do try to be gentle on yourself.

>Any nation that could, by pure democratic vote of a sovereign people, turn itself into a direct democracy if it so desired, seems related enough to direct democracy that it makes little sense to distinguish it this way.

The US could not turn itself in to a direct democracy with a vote of the people. The US Constitution would have to be amended and there is no mechanism in the US Constitution that would allows a direct vote to turn this nation into a direct democracy

>In the US, the constitutional amendment process simply requires enough people in enough states to make an amendment happen.

No that is not how it works at all. Either Congress would have to propose Amendments or 2/3 of the states would have to get together at a convention to propose them

Then they would need to be ratified by 3/4 (not 50%) of the states to be adopted

A direct Democracy would only require 50%+1 of the people in a nation wide vote. That is not how our constitution works and there is zero mechanism for such a vote to happen

>The checks and balances could be undone anytime enough people wanted to undo them, up to and including voiding the current Constitution and starting over if enough people wanted to.

This is all true, and has been over the years. For example on massive check on federal government power was that the Senate was not to be popularly elected by citizens, instead the Senate's purpose was to represent each states government's interest in congress, not the people. The House was "the peoples house", The constitution was amended to make the Senate a popularly elected position just like the house. This resulted in a MASSIVE expansion of Federal power, and the loss of State Sovereignty and pushing us closer to the nightmare that would be a direct democracy aka mob rule

Ok, so basically forcing yourself to live like a normal, healthy person.

It gets easier with routines and practice and will eventually start a positive spiral if you stick to it for a few weeks.

If you “lose” it (you will) and end up out of the spiral or going backwards, remind yourself of how good your brain felt after that 30 min run or 15 minute of focused breathing.

You probably have a hyper-sensitive brain of sorts, and you will know what I mean.
It sensitive in a way that it behaves like a sponge. Feed it good stuff and it will behave better.

Drain it with no good sleep, bad food, sugar and intense focus without rest? Setting of a bad spiral. Learn to feel when this kicks in.

The work never stops, so force it! Just do it.

Yeah, but the VB executables themselves were tiny (in P-Code form, which was the default, they were also much more compact than machine code) and while a single exe+runtime itself was larger than the ~300K a minimum that Delphi 2/C++ Builder would produce (with +~100K for a program that did something interesting), it would take 3-4 programs sharing the runtime to quickly win that difference back.

This is actually a (minor) issue i have with Lazarus - the executable files do not depend on anything, but they are too large (~2MB minimum nowadays, if you remove all debug info, etc) so if i want to create several "small" utilities that focus on one thing instead of a multi-tool, i waste a lot of space (and most importantly nowadays, bandwidth).

At least with Delphi you can compile the executable with the runtime library as a separate file to be shared among the programs (my guess is that they wanted to do something the VB shared runtime, but it didn't seem to catch on as nobody used it like that).
It used to have then we ratified the 17th amendment which turned the Senate way from being representative of the State, and turned it into a second "peoples house"
co2 is not contained. Nuclear waste is.
This isn't the reason at all.

Even in expensive Eurocities they don't rush you out the door. In the center of Amsterdam it's sometimes difficult to get a waiter's attention for the check - if you don't take the initiative you'll be there for an hour.

And in cheap American cities they also try to push you out the door.
Maybe git blame should get better.
+1 for this. Arguably all of Weinberg's works teach mental models. 'Are Your Lights On?' is an easy introduction to his writing and thinking, and 'Exploring Requirements: Quality Before Design' is directly applicable to any software project involving collection of requirements (I thin that's all of them.)
Note that this is Oberon-07, not Oberon, the latter is a bit different (and there are other Oberons). Also the spec is indeed small, but it doesn't address qustions like what happens when you assign an integer to a byte that is outside the range that a byte can represent.
I think there are important differences. We know that wastes has energy (otherwise they would not radiate), there are stored in a well specified area.

Unfortunately nuclear energy had a very bad PR for past 50 years, as a result nobody wanted to do any searcher in areas related to it).

It seems that it is slightly better now, environmental organizations at least are not trying to occupy nuclear reactors, unfortunately still they are pushing wind farms and solar farms, even though they cannot be usable on a massive scale without efficient way to store energy surplus.
I wouldn't call it a mental model, but Voice Dialogue method has tremendous positive impact on people's well-being and consciousness. Somehow it fits your question, I think. It is a mental model of sorts. "Embracing Our Selves", a book by Sidra and Hal Stone, is a beautifully written introduction.
Right. OP predicted it would be around whether at $1 or $1M and this is no longer possible. The chain would die if it ever falls below a cheap attack price.

But, that's part of the reason holders have a vested interest in holding, and thus available supply on the market is restricted, and the price remains high. Game theory keeps the chain alive.

Can you opt for a second opinion? Like, is that legally possible to be enforced? If yes, I'd go for that. If you have trouble functioning in society, a diagnosis plus therapy or medication can really direct you in the right way. You still have to put in effort, of course, but basically less because these aid you.

A big problem with nuclear is expense. The figures from France are misleading because the state and the power companies are deeply entangled financially. A clearer view is possible in the UK because they have market system, and subsidies tend to be more transparent. The message from the UK is that nuclear power is not financially viable, and no nuclear power stations would be built without government subsidy. The subsidy required is far greater than that required by renewables. See https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2017/nov/22/hinkley-poin...
Clearly you did not read my original post, as I am not opposed to reforms I am opposed to eliminating the Electoral College

Better reforms include

* Enacting the Wyoming Rule

* Eliminating Gerrymandering, I want to use the other non political division to choose congressional districts. Counties, Postal Codes, Phone Area Codes something else

* Proportional Electoral College: Each Congressional District will vote for the President instead of Each State

* Instant Run Off Voting: First past the post needs to end.

* returning the Senate to the States

These are just a few reforms that I support

They are maintained but last time i heard after it was sold to Idera they fired some of their most of their programming team, including some (or all?

Modern (post renaissance) history, economics and political theory are often totally model focused.

Ibn Khaldun is (in my definitions) the earliest example). He describes mesapotamian history, for example, as a process where barbarians take a city, gradually become soft urbanites and then it happens again. It's a model rather than an occurrence.

It's a predecessor of Adam Smith, Marx, and even 2019 people like Yuval Noah Harari. The thesis is a model. Facts are tests and/or values for the model, not the thesis.
I don’t find “nothing more to offer” to be a good reason to refuse to cooperate. When you’re called as a witness, you go and tell the truth, fully and nothing but. Exceptions apply regarding self-incrimination, attorney-client privileges, and a few others. But those are democratically agreed on.

I would agree that Manning got treated far too harshly, and the commutation (pardon?) of her sentence by Obama is a rather high-level recognition of that opinion. But of all the institutions we have, some of which seem somewhat necessary for the continued functioning of society, the courts have held up relatively well in these times of partisan breakdown of norms. And I say that even though I have a list of verdicts I disagree with that is probably longer than yours.

Please try to consider a case that is reversed from your political point of view. Say a soldier who committed war crimes and, after serving their sentence, refuses to testify against their partners. Would you still grant them a right to refuse testimony?
