While true with some, I believe uBO is a list implemented client-side, right? Other ad-blockers can and do phone home and let through ads that have paid, but uBO just has the EasyList filter installed locally and blocks those URLs. That was my impression at least, I never personally went through the source code.
I'm not sure the qualification "medical grade" exists for therapy. You go if you feel like you need to go. You would see a psychiatrist for medicine-based solutions to your perceived or physical ailments.

Another aspect is that often times sensitive subjects involving the spouse come up that you have previously been unsuccessful in discussing with them, or you are simply uncomfortable discussing with them.

An easy comeback would be to say "you should be able to discuss anything with your spouse," but reality ain't that simple for everybody.
>If games could be resold then I’d have to go through the trouble of reselling them in order to recoup the difference.

works both ways, you'd also have the opportunity to buy a resold game, which in the case of digital goods would not appear to make a difference.
Working at startups lead me to tears over stress a few times and one boss, knowing I broke down that same day, would ask me "you're okay to continue working today right?". Thankfully I was young, had no kids, and decided my mental health was worth more than an underpaid job to make a few people rich and so I left that company. Some people who worked there longer than I did still justify the time they spent working in conditions like that. Some people I worked with there barely spent any time with their families. Oh, but it was "all worth it for the company!"... they would claim.

Get help if you need it and remember that no one is worth working for if they degrade your mental health. No one.
I agree deploying CCS on that scale doesn’t seem very realistic, but that is the formal target of the government.
Not at all I'm just saying that you're not fairly representing this.

> ...the Chinese are retaliating by making an example of some westerners - who, by the way, are all charged with crimes as well, unless you are claiming they were framed?

It's hard to say with the PRC of course, only 1,039 of more than 1.2 million people [brought to trial] were found not guilty in court in the PRC in 2014 (three 9's of conviction rate) [1]. Either they've got some super-sleuths on staff at all the police stations or something's a little funky.

> This "fraud" was allegedly misrepresenting the destination of funds - allegedly to conceal a relationship with a company previously accused of trading with Iran.

Again, no, they're being charged with fraud. They'd have had to commit fraud to be extradited. Not sanctions avoidance. What the fraud was in connection to is kind of irrelevant. The reason they committed fraud is irrelevant, fraud is fraud. You can't misstate the destination of funds whether you're in America or Canada which is why the case is being made. If they'd written Destination: IRAN we wouldn't be having this conversation. And further, the judge is taking to account the political nature of the situation. Of course why they're looking into it now is political.

Hyperbolic example but if they'd ordered someone killed to conceal the destination of funds would you be air quoting "murder"? Probably not.

> One more thing. I'm not "making excuses".

>> I do agree that as a Canadian - probably not the best time. Mining minerals is a bit of an exaggeration though. He'll be detained for a couple of weeks, then deported with a 10-year ban.

My point is you're making a bad-faith argument or at least a false equivalency. You hand-waved this away as though they're going to spend some vacation time on the mainland, but in reality, they could just as face execution. Not for anything they did, but for political reasons. It's not an exaggeration, if anything, it was an understatement of risk.

> But I'm tired of the narrative of "my own righteous, virtuous country can do no wrong" vs "the evil, scheming little brainwashed totalitarians".

I'm not saying anything of the sort. I'm criticizing the false equivalency you made of taking someone through a rule-of-law process and treating them fairly in adjudicating whether a crime was committed, vs. execution in political retaliation. Just because there's a reason they're killing Canadians doesn't mean that it's okay or should be ignored, or that there's no risk. I have a lot of respect for the government of the PRC, but that hardly means I'm fine with this.

For the record, I'm by no means a fan of the recent developments with Iran, I think going back on the Iran nuclear deal is a huge blunder.

For getting a grasp on what your unproductive time, I'd like to recommend RescueTime.

Fundamentally, it is tracking software, and I know some folks won't like that.

It works by measuring time spent between programs via desktop client, and when you're using the browser an optional browser extension subdivides its time by which webpage you have active. It then groups all this info up into categories and measures your "productive" vs. "unproductive" time.

I used it for many years when I did freelancing work, and found it to be exceptionally high quality.
I recently walked away from a client who had this attitude. I want to take pride in my work, when I cannot I suffer for it.

The way I look at it is the following:

There are times to take the shortcut (Business reason, for example), and there are times to do the technically sound thing (long term health, usually).

A healthy software team is doing both as it makes sense. That's quality software dev. It's when business takes over the software teams decisions and you always take the shortcut that quality falls off a cliff.

I've worked in those environments too much. I want to be able to take pride in the work I do.
> Do we need more evidence to act? What are we waiting for?

We're waiting for a reversal in the apparent worldwide collapse of liberal democracy, I guess.

Probably climate change and said collapse will feed into each other. The way most oligarchs and their toadies are wired, I think they're more likely to look to pull the ripcord for themselves rather than spend big on best-effort change for everyone else. Dismantling democracies like America must be a central pillar of their strategy for consolidating power.

Incidentally, right now the single person most standing in the way of positive change (and he has even been dismantling previous progress) is a comically narcissistic, borderline illiterate fraud artist who'll most likely be dead before the shit hits the fan even according to the most alarming predictions. I don't mean to say he's fully responsible (far from it), but that's a good proxy for where we're at.

Point free style possible in languages like Haskell and SML where the syntax makes it practical. Haskell and SML make it easy, Scala does not. If you made an OOP language with the right syntax features, you could have point-free style in that language too. You can do point-free style in Python with just a little effort. It's orthogonal to the FP/OOP debate.

Agreed, it is still largely a question of optics and prejudice. People associate therapy with psychiatry and that anyone going is "crazy".

I've long argued that we should come up with a better term. I prefer stress counselor instead of therapist. It allows more natural discussion with others too. "I see a stress counselor and we just talk about how to be less stressed at work and home" is a very easy and non-clinical way to discuss the same thing as going to therapy. We also need to mandate that mental health is covered by all health insurance plans. Anything we can do to remove the stigma is a positive.
This feels very exploitative.
There was a post about some "Could you determine if this person is AI-generated or a stock image?" and turns out, that yes, it's very possible.

There is a fundamental difference in your example in the fact that it calls for action/violence.

If he had said, for instance, that every child needs to be molested, that would be more in line with your example. And that would no longer be acceptable.

Outright racism and similar views are indeed less tolerated nowadays, but this is a whole discussion by itself. I'll just add that, from my POV, they cross the line from the "opinion realm", which together with a number of other arguments justifies non-tolerance of these views.

I often argue with my female colleagues who see this as an aspect of patriarchy culture since these sociopaths tend to be men.

Interesting point from their "How and why are we different" is the part about their heritage:

I disagree that there isn't information in those images that could be used to filter out some of these scenes. You have blood, impact wounds, bodies going limp, and other factors. It's something you can work on right now, in addition to other remedies, to reduce the quantity and impact of the trauma.

Yes. They were fined over a million dollars in Australia for inventing a refund policy of "go fuck yourself", which it turns out is simply criminal in some jurisdictions. They stole from an estimated 20,000 Australians with that fraud, unfortunately they dodged accountability where the other 95% of their customers are located, but they did implement a more ethical refund policy when they realized how badly they messed up by banning people who asked for lawful refunds and eliminating their entire purchased library.

https://www.ibtimes.com/steam-vs-australia-valve-fined-3-mil...

GOG carry on the tradition with a refund policy designed not to refund anyone and begging for a judge to examine it. Their intention is to prove the game you purchased can open thus you might play it so all purchases are de facto final.

But that’s part of the point. We owe animals humane treatment because of what we are, not because of what they are.

To be clear, holding tigers and bears to a different moral standard is human exceptionalism. I’m fine with that, but many people seem to feel we should treat animals humanely because they’re the same as us.
>The day ublock origin doesn't work on chrome is the day users will flock to firefox.

>This is because since their core functionality is so similar, small advantages will tip the scales.

It is a a bold assertion, which is not backed up by the data. Despite Mozilla repositioning Firefox recently and reclaiming some lost ground, it is to a larger extent, still only maintaining a steady set of core users. To make an assumption that small advantages will tip the scales in favour of FF is wishful thinking, as demonstrated by some of the conversations. Furthermore, it is inherently not in the best interests of Google to actively promote ad-blocking policy unless it serves it's own purpose, coupled with the acute awareness of why power users and developers pick Chrome ─ they are well positioned to throttle any competition.

Fair enough, but I would not read too much into that choice of words. For example:

“The workers had lit a bonfire and were sitting together when a drone targeted them,” tribal elder Malik Rahat Gul told Reuters by telephone from Wazir Tangi.

I don't believe that Malik Rahat Gul (or possibly, his translator) was attempting to relieve anyone of moral agency or responsibility, do you?

"Was I any less smart when I was 11? Probably not;"

For reasonable definitions of "less smart", yes, you were. There's a lot of work on child development, and it does not support the idea that an 11-year-old is as fully equipped as an adult. Piaget's child development stages is an accessible overview if you want a nice Googleable term. Modern academics would quibble with various aspects but from what I can see a lot of the general ideas one would get from a quick breeze-through are still a reasonable start.

I'm actually pretty close to first in line to say that we underestimate children... buuuut, at the same time, no, they are not just little adults that are getting suppressed by The Man or whatever. They really aren't anywhere near fully developed yet, and are as a population, generally incapable of many things no matter how hard you tried to push them. And even if you do find an individual 11-year-old that, say, is fine with calculus, in another 10 years they'll be even more developed.
That looks very interesting. I like their solution to running stateful applications. They only schedule containers on nodes that have the requested volume. Of course the downside is that you need to manage the volumes manually which is perfectly reasonable because I only need 3 nodes for high availability.
A therapist of course can't fix a mistake you made in the past.

However, they will most certainly help you change the way you think about that mistake. Which can be extremely helpful in moving past those mistakes and making the best of where you find yourself now in life.

I just recently started seeing a therapist, and this was a huge revelation to me. More specifically, helping me realize I was holding onto a lot of guilt over things where it made no sense to cling to that guilt. Learning to let go of that mental overhead has been extremely helpful.

My 11-year old also never looks at her phone. We actually keep having to remind her to do so because we are texting her with reminders all the time. She seems to have almost zero interest in texting with her friends and will only occasionally play games or read books on the Kindle app. It's 100% just her personality though. Nothing that she learned to do. I also track her location with it and she likes us knowing where she is because she doesn't have a great sense of direction and is scared of getting lost.
Good point. I was skeptical of DLCs when they first game about, but if they're decent quality/effort expansions, then that's fine with me. But games with the kind of exploitation you mention I stay away from, and as someone who regards games as a kind of art, I can't see how our cultural heritage benefits from this... kind of games (I'd like to add some not-so-nice words aimed at the beneficiaries of these "games", but those words seem inappropriate for HN).

From the article:

> the high court ruled that, under European Union law, Steam customers have a right to be able to resell ‘dematerialised’ goods, i.e., digital games on Steam.

IANAL but while this is a French high court, they have clearly interpreted EU (not domestic) law, so I think it's safe to say that if Valve loses the appeal, or decides to change it regardless ahead of time, they likely won't take the unnecessary risk of not rolling it out across the EU.

You sound like you were born in 1981 or 1982.

If he had an element of kidney failure, that would make him more at risk of death from overdose. The kidneys are one of the main organs (that and the liver) that clear toxins from the body, so with kidney disease you could die from a sedative dose that would be safe for someone with healthy kidneys. Certainly kidney damage can result from prescription and non prescription drug use.

You're being downvoted because your aggressive tone is attacking anyone on this site and using nothing but logical fallacies and weak ideas to back your statements. It's more likely that you're constantly getting down voted because your tone and behavior is similar to the tone and behavior of these posts.

Maybe check out reddit if this is your preferred level of discourse. They're much more receptive to it there.
