Are you passionate about mental health? At Big Health, we're building a digital medicine platform that uses clinically proven techniques to help our users deal with the problems of worry and sleeplessness.

Our evidence-based techniques draw on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, and are already helping people back to good mental health.

We value tenacity, humility, ingenuity and soul. In my interactions with my colleagues, these shine through on a daily basis.

I'm working on the platform and integrations team as a Backend Engineer, and we're also hiring full stack engineers, front end engineers and mobile engineers. We have two offices (in London and SF), and for the right candidate we'd be open to sponsoring a visa or supporting a remote role.

We have a micro-service architecture deployed on AWS Lambda, and the backend is written in Python 3.6.

If you're interested, you can email our head of recruiting Lauren at lauren.lazo@Big health.com (no space) with a resume.

The data from the article you provided talks about violent and non-violent protests and the numbers required for it. If 11,445,000 people were to storm the White House I imagine that would indeed have quite the effect. I don't see how it's related to not flying planes or not eating meat to effect climate change.

As an American, 25 Euros is absolutely dirt cheap. We can't travel between nearby cities for anywhere near that cheap here.

The 75 Euro deal sounds really cheap too.
I remember a libertarian telling me once that they believed it was unethical to start a war in order to free slaves, because violence is only ok in self defence and the slaves could rise up on their own.
Last year more than 50% of new US generation capacity that came online was renewable. In Q1 of this year it went up to 60% -- https://www.solarpowerworldonline.com/2019/05/renewables-acc.... The current administration is beholden to large coal donors, yes, but all that campaign money is just the final desperate hail-mary of the coal barons.

The beancounters who make the decisions see that renewables are now the cheaper option.

We've even seen cases where plans for cheap gas peaker plants have been scrapped because doing it with batteries is cheaper.

How about a demo with Scratch or a LOGO turtle? You could start with a skeleton or simple sprite and let the kids suggest how to animate it or add behaviors. You'll need a laptop and projector but it would be interactive and provide immediate feedback.

When I was a kid, learning LOGO gave me the epiphany that software was "castles in the sky" and you could make anything you want.

I think this is one of the key things -- so many things in technology are just given to you as-is with no way to change them. The realization that all of this is mutable -- that the computer is just going along doing exactly what it was told, and that you can be the one to tell it what to do -- is a real eye-opener for a lot of people (children or not).

While not the exact specifics, no, but can you point to a society which actively encourages theft and murder? I'm talking not for special circumstances (ie. execution for crimes), but the straight up "I just wanted to stab a dude" murder.

Well, the choice is living in the Bay Area. I don't think many would find it surprising that an area with among the worst traffic and highest housing prices might have longer commutes than the national average.
Except you left out the really important restriction that they cannot directly sell to domestic Chinese market. So they're still subject to import tariffs. In fact there's a whole industry of consultants who specializes in helping these companies "export and import" their goods back to China. I guess they may save on the shipping costs and employ cheaper Chinese labor. But the whole point of companies opening factories in China is to be able to sell to the huge Chinese consumer market without being hit by tariffs.

A Brief History of How Your Privacy Was Stolen
Plenty of apparently innocuous proposals have an agenda or ulterior motive behind them.
Interestingly, the sentiment doesn't appear only when China is discussed. There are a number of comments that boil down to "democracy has failed" or "democracy will fail in the next few years" (usually when automation is discussed).

My hunch is that it's a cornerstone of neoreactionary theory that is slowly seeping into public discourse.
The arrogant assholes weren't given any power or respect outside of tech, though, unless they are rich, nobody who isn't on the mailing list or depends on their software cares. I've never seen any developer become the life of the party because "he might start the next big thing".

I feel like this article just throws cliches together that have little basis in reality, because it's as hip to call the "nerds" out for being assholes because "now they have power" as it was to call them nerds 20 years ago.

Imho these "thought leader self marketing" articles don't provide much value. They regurgitate common talking points and the biggest difference is the image choice.
Ask HN: Why doesn't HN support post or account deletion?
In addition to the fact views can change, or someone might have other concerns. (Ex: maybe they didn't plan for being forced to disclose their social media at the border when making legal political speech), doesn't GDPR require it (at least for EU citizens)?

(It's my understanding that HN comments are permanent, absent a short edit/delete period and accounts aren't deletable, if either is incorrect please feel free to let me know in the comments :) )
It’s a great performance enhancer if you take it rarely enough, and it’s entirely legal to use at academic competitions :)

Here's a much better article: https://www.theregister.co.uk/2019/05/31/lto_patent_case_hit...

TL;DR, including knowledge prior to the latest wins by Sony: Fujifilm and Sony, the last two remaining manufacturers of high end LTO tapes have removed each other from the US market through legal actions. Sony as a result previously ended manufacturing of LTO-7 and never fielded LTO-8, more recently Fujifilm ended LTO-8 production. The theory a few months ago was that they'd get together and hammer out an agreement that would prevent a supply disruption, but that doesn't seem to have happened.

And for a bit of Original Research, maybe Sony wants people to switch to their and Panasonic's proprietary Archival Disc: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archival_Disc

This potentially could reduce privacy protection to the lowest standards of any member state.

Terrorism and cyber crime are negligible threats to the EU. It has more of an existential crisis. These kind of laws that have invigorated us the last decades are going to be extended further. Because we seem to be governed by pathologically fearful, demented old...

Additionally, the US will be involved for similar sharing of data in the future.

Sorry for the rant, but it is what it is. Without any accountability whatsoever.
Climate change reinforces economic inequality as well. Developing nations are going to be the hardest hit by it.
Whatever you want to call it, I'm all for digital minimalism these days.

I find modern computing to be filled with stress and anxiety. Computers, at one time, used to sit idle until used. Using a computer was to use a tool to help you get some task done that was previously menial and boring. These days as soon as I sit down at a computer I start getting messages, advertisements, pleas, bargains, warnings, requests... it seems like it never ends. I sit down to get some work done and an hour later I've finally managed to get enough of the messages down and distractions over with that I've nearly forgotten what it was I intended to do in the first place.

And this experience has been following me in my pocket for more than a decade. Since 2008 or so it has been getting louder, more obnoxious, and demanding. Offers for new phones and data plans when I'm trying to bathe my kids vibrate in my pocket waiting to be heard. Advertisements tailored to my interests and desires follow me everywhere. Messages from people trying to contact me whenever the whim comes to them. There is little room for silence in my days anymore.

I have a dream inspired by the folks behind http://screenl.es/ -- a version of computing where there screens are not the primary interface for computing. One that is diverse, invisible, and intentional. I'd like a version of computing that is controlled by me and bends around my needs and not the needs of product designers, advertisers, and whims of others.

Until I can realize that dream or someone else gets it done I think I'm going to continue my trend of cutting out as much technology from my life as possible. I need more silence, solitude, and intentional, meaningful interactions. I don't want a deluge of social opinion on every happening in the world aimed right at my brain.

A few years ago I just decided to give up caffeine entirely. It wasn't worth the impact on my sleep or the stop-everything-and-find-caffeine headaches I got. I became uncomfortable with the fact that, in some small way, a substance exerted that much control over my life.

I've been very impressed by talented coding artists on sites like codepen and codesandbox and wanted share creative possibilities their generative artworks provide with people who don't know how modify variables in the code.

A bit later I discovered a similar project (https://github.com/dataarts/dat.gui) originating from chrome experiments but it was too late as at that point I was introducing new features on top of it: integration with googles fonts, palettes, inserted images so that it can be used for creating social media banners.
Well the hardcore version is that the different LE company can't subject you to their process unless you consent and if you didn't the restitution for whatever crime they say you committed would be paid for by their own insurance company.

why would you ever agree then? Well maybe because they have an agreement with your LE company and you'd find yourself dropped as a client if you didn't or you both use the same insurance company and they'd jack up your rates if you didn't. More extremely you might be fired and become unhireable as a liability and unless you already have sufficient arable land to subsistence farm you will die of starvation or be shot for trespassing (initiating force) on the sidewalk that you can no longer pay for the use of.

Don't take this as me thinking it is at all a workable scheme also I'm definitely not AnCap and I don't hang out in their circles so this kinda just the low-nuance version that I've picked up via osmosis.

>its adherents allowed it to be labeled in this way and therefore make me feel like I did something wrong for getting something from a fictional book. This is spiritual cowardice on a level so profound it affected fiction. Pathetic. Ugly and pathetic.

Someone else should have done the hard work of defending the reputation, so you could enjoy their success?

Are you sure you want to be calling them cowards from that position?
One neat trick I use to assess doctors is look at their legal history. These records are all public, and your local court probably has them searchable online[1]. I wouldn't avoid a doctor just because they've been sued, but a bunch of malpractice suits are a bit of a red flag.

Is there a difference between anarchy and libertarianism? I always thought there was...
Only speaking about arithmetic rather than full set theory: in (full) second order arithmetic theory all models of the natural number N are isomorphic (in a unique way). The big drawback is that this theory is completely undecidable, so we usually interpret it in first order logic set theory where it becomes incomplete. By Godel, you cannot have an arithmetic theory with decidable proofs and completeness.

In set theory one has to be careful that you can have models which are not transitive models. So Löwenheim-Skolem implies that if you have a model, you have a countable model. But you may not have a transitive countable model. However you do have a transitive version of Löwenheim-Skolem, by Mostowski collapsing lemma: "there exists a transitive model" <=> there exists a countable transitive model".

The opposite of "we can't agree on laws" is not "we encourage the behaviour that most places have those laws in place to discourage". What you should be asking is "show me a country that doesn't have laws for what we commonly consider illegal behaviour".

So okay: slavery is horrible, and illegal (by law) in a lot of places. But not in Mali, where hundreds of thousands of people are either indentured servants, or quite literally slaves.

This. The PB&J exercise is really good.

I'd suggest not trying to impress them. It's not a date. They're kids. Try to connect with them. Talk about your job, sure, but more important to share things you're enthusiastic about.

Also, from what you describe of their background, they may think that what you do is inaccessible to them. Try to reach them, especially the girls. And let them ask you questions.
