Thanks for asking!

It sounds like you are a lot more informed about mental healthcare than a lot of people, which is great. Generally, most people don't know what to look for in terms of style or fit, and we're a lot more robust with our search.

To answer your questions:

1. We almost always have to reach out to 20+ therapists, and routinely reach out to 30, 40, 50 to find someone with availability and a couple of criteria the user specifies (e.g. good with immigrants, or available Tuesday mornings). Also if someone wants an in-network provider.

2. This would be great, and are thinking about asking providers and users what their communication styles are as a first step. How would you like us to address this? What questions about the therapist would you like answered upfront?
Yeah you're right. It's just been driving me crazy for a while now.

It just feels so clunky. It feels very self-gratifying.

Part of my point is you typically only see this from folks who have a large amount of followers. Of which, a good percentage would be happy to click on a link to writing from someone they're ibterested in.

Seems like they are doing it because they enjoy the reaction from their follower base on the platform.

Don't make us try to follow a 1000 word thesis, in disjointed, 240 character increments... which might all have their own chain of comments.

Let us read the whole argument uninterrupted, & comment @ the end together. I'm only saying the platform isn't suited for long form ideas & discussion.

Again, sorry for ranting. Maybe I'm just in a mood tonight haha.
Thank you for your attention, maybe I need clarify more.
Is this a Windows-only program?
For now it is, but WindTerm is developped by Qt, so MacOs and Linux will be supported in feature.
Why is SSH and Telnet listed as “supported”? Won’t any terminal emulator support those protocols via an executable?
Of course not, for example Alacritty, which telnet and ssh are depending on system's tools, like openssh and etc. WindTerm implemented the protocols itself, like securecrt.
What differentiates this from Alacritty, Kitty, or iTerm2? These “modern terminals” are not included in benchmarks.
If you concerned Alacritty, you will see it also compared to rxvt, because rxvt is one of the most fast terminals.
What differentiates this from Microsoft’s new terminal?
Features are listed, like coloring, folding.
I'll also put this on WindTerm's readme.
I, for one, regularly put on my best Max von Sydow impression and say "As to their relationship to the spice... Who knows?"
Haha, didn't know that.

I did think the top image looked like classic Unity rotated 90°.

And it only took 7 years from when Microsoft first copied it for Windows 8 for Apple to invent it.

That said, iPadOS on an iPad Pro is almost everything I wanted from a Linux tablet a decade ago, so I'm decidedly pleased.
You're in the rare camp that realized this. Thanks for doing me and everyone else in this industry a solid.

Companies won't change until this is enough of a negative signal for them.
Neither Elixir or Erlang have real arrays, unless you want to count tuples. That said, I don’t see how that correlates to scripting, the data structures that are first class in Elixir are very ergonomic and certainly flexible enough to tackle pretty much any task you’d use a scripting language for.

I recently found the Macmillian audiobook of Dune through my local library service and have been listening to it. It's an 'acted' audiobook in that there is a narrator but also different voices for speech by the different characters. It's quite good and has been a nice way to revisit a book that blew my mind as a 12 year old.
And because people settled in Antartica it's no longer the miserable experience it used to be. These are pioneers, they do things that are had, they pave the way for the rest of humanity.

That only works if only a few people decide to work more, since in capitalism prices/wages are set by the marginal rate. So if everyone works more, wages just go down, till no one is actually any better off.
What blows my mind is that we have recorded evidence of UFOs with seemingly advanced space flight technology (on camera!) that has been recorded by the Navy.

What do people make of this? I'm super curious. Aliens? Skunkworks style deep-state secret stuff? The Russians? What?

Personally, the only thing I can think of is aliens. I mean...come on!

Step 1: Step away from Ruby.

I loove ruby, it's my first choice for scripting wherever performance doesn't matter. No way around the fact that it very slow though.
I don't really think Apple is serious about power users anymore. The company seems to have embraced the Starbucks crowd fully, leaving serious users dealing with crappy keyboards and increasingly poor operating systems. Whatever hardware they do have to satisfy power users is absurdly priced (Mac Pro).

I switched completely to Windows last month and built a PC. It's incredible the kind of hardware you can get for a third of the cost.
There's a finite amount of land on earth, so, yeah.

"One winter evening, I heard him read my mother a passage about a young man named Paul Atreides who was forced to place his hand into the blackness of a box while an old woman, the Reverend Mother Gaius Helen Mohiam, held a poison needle at his neck, the gom jabbar. Though I didn't realize it at the time, this was the opening chapter of Dune.

Pauls' hand would feel intense pain, the wrinkled crone told him, but if he withdrew it from the box she would kill him with the poison needle. I was transfixed by the drama of the scene and by the strange words... gom jabbar, Maud'Dib, the Gesserit, jihad, kull wahad.. the throaty, mysterious resonance of words and names as they rolled off Dad's tongue, in his powerful voice. I was intrigued by the sounds. And by the way the Reverend Mother used "the Voice" on Paul to control him, similar to methods my father often employed against me.

"The language is beautiful," Mom said, after listening to the chapter. Frequently over the years she spoke of the poetry of his writing, and rarely made suggestions for improvement in that area. Her comments primarily concerned plot when she thought he was getting too convoluted, and characterization, particularly the motivational aspects of female characters.

I heard Dad speak passages aloud in his study as he wrote them, before presenting them to my mother. He understood the psychology of human society, the way stories had been told orally for centuries before anything was ever written down. The way troubadours and jongleurs traveled from castle to castle, telling tales and singing songs. He believed readers subconsciously heard the written text through their ears, receiving them as oral transmissions. As a consequence, he labored long hours to obtain just the right word selection and rhythm. The best writing, he believed, touched the subconscious.

He enjoyed relating his stories to my mother, a process that recalled times as a boy spent around scouting campfires when he captivated the attention of scouts and scoutmasters alike. It brought back as well darkened bedrooms Frank Herbert shared with his cousins, in which they hung on his every word. Mom enjoyed hearing his tales. She was an excellent listener, as she had been in her childhood when her Scottish father told her clever mystery stories about caves and secret panels..."

This write-up wasn’t bad. I take issue with the title: Pearl Harbor was an act of war, so there was no “justice” in killing enemies who planned or fought in the battle (nor was there anything wrong with doing it.)

The author further confused by turning to the subject of drone strikes, which are only controversial because they are not carried out as part of an actual war.
Ah. Found the Seattle Times article.

https://www.seattletimes.com/business/boeing-aerospace/boein...

Relevant pieces:

>The board called for revamping oversight of a controversial program that delegates Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) authority to company engineers and technical experts, allowing Boeing to help certify its own airplanes as safe and airworthy.

>That recommendation calls for Boeing experts, known as “authorized representatives” under the FAA’s Organization Designation Authorization (ODA) program, to report to a new aviation safety organization within the company, called Product and Services Safety, rather than to business and program managers.

So this would be the FAA "blessed" folks reporting to an internal board separate from sales/business/project management. So technically, yes. The FAA is not directly in the loop.

>Boeing said the new internal organization would be headed by a vice president who reports directly to company leadership. It also would be tasked with overseeing Boeing’s Accident Investigations Team, safety review boards and investigations of “cases of undue pressure and anonymous product and service safety concerns raised by employees,” according to the announcement from CEO Dennis Muilenburg and board members detailing the recommendations.

>The new structure “should increase awareness and reporting of, and accountability for, safety issues within the company,” Boeing said.

cough That's an unfortunate acronym... Boeing Accident Investigations Team, henceforth known as B.A.I.T.

There is life on Mars -- JPL just doesn't want to tell us. Follow this logic: 1) two planets in habitable zone - both spontaneously cause life; 2) then many or most habitable zone planets have life; 3) Of the trillions of stars in our galaxy, there must be multitudes that have hosted intelligent life; 4) we don't hear SETI signals; 5) that means SETI must have snuffed themselves out with some super-technology; 6) ergo, cannot tell the masses, because they will freak out knowing that we are all doomed, including all our offspring.

My summation is that the 1984 movie was both good and original, but the parts that were original were not good, and the parts that were good were not original.

Ruby scripting has occupied the sysadmin space for over a decade yet on my 2013 Macbook Pro the latest Ruby 2.6.5 takes around 250ms to start. That's a mere 1/4 of a second. Sure, Python, Perl and PHP have shorter startup times but surely this is a non-problem?

Baskets of currencies are nothing novel. The problem goes down to whether this is a Facebook-controlled currency (which is troubling, given Facebook’s track record) or a nobody-controlled currency that Facebook profits from (which is troubling, given the money-laundering concerns).
My hypothesis is that the difficulty of writing automated end-to-end tests where failure can reliably indicate actual brokenness, combined with some of the other factors I mentioned is the reason for all the focus on unit and shallow integrations that you mention.

A store has to get a permit for an awning and also renew that permit any time they want to make changes to it or make any repairs that alter the appearance of that awning.

The cheapest awning permit is $6000 in NYC.

Even worse, frequently there are codes that change and businesses have to stay on top of the law changes but the DCA only publishes guides to stay current with the law every decade or two. In the meantime they just fine anyone in violation. They have all kinds of things they commonly fine for like not displaying your business license prominently in two places in your business, not putting your license number at the top of your receipt in a certain place, etc.

It's straight up grift.

The beta units were 600 euros, while the chipset is $87.

Meanwhile an Acer Aspire E 15 for $600 gives you a $297 CPU and $70 graphics card.

I guess there is some overhead because the beta was 10 units not a hundred thousand units, but still. You might as well get a Raspberry Pi and a portable screen and stick them in a box. It's half the price and you can use the components for other things after you get bored.

But they are looking for it. Science demands evidence for your claims. If x could be due to a, but also b, c, d, maybe e, you can't say x = a until you've proved that x ≠ b, c, d, e.

All scientists are not atheists, just the smart ones. Depends on your interpretation of the word though. I don't consider atheism to be a complete abscence of philosophical pondering. I believe we haven't explored emergent consciousness enough and that makes it a mystery. But a scientist believing in a God from an ancient textbook is a red flag for me
I wouldn't place much emphasis on testing, and Apple most likely has tests, because the exact conditions that trigger such bugs are often so narrow that an artificial testing environment for them to "make the stars line up" would be nearly impossible to create. Anything involving multithreading/asynchronous code tends to fall in that category, but even single-threaded code can be like that; to make an artificial relevant example, it could be something like "if two consecutively received emails are exactly 8192 bytes long[1], and the first one is the 256th message in the folder when sorted by the sender's email, then the second one will be missing." That's a condition which you're highly unlikely to hit, even more so if you're generating test data randomly (as some tools like to do, and fuzzing is one prominent example). Even if you specifically test power-of-2 sizes, the two-in-a-row subcondition would make that improbable. If you let everyone in Apple "dogfood" the software, they might not hit. Yet everyone who has subscribed to a set of mailing lists that happened to issue such an exact sequence of messages would see the bug.

That's also why I think other automated tools and "code quality" metrics don't help so much; tests are more of a sanity/last-chance check and shouldn't be relied upon to catch everything. Correctness should be assured through design and code reviews, and for that nothing beats the power of intense mental deliberation. To paraphrase a popular saying, "there is no replacement for intelligence."

Even if GraalVM fixes startup times aren't JVM languages just too long-winded for scripting? Perl, Python and Ruby dominate the scripting world for a reason - standard libraries for file, dir and pathname manipulation written in a concise language. Scripting is a style of coding, not just a means to an end. It is here that dynamic languages excel. Clojure is the leanest of the JVMs but doesn't it still rely on Java for file, dir and pathname manipulation?

Sorry, I was referring to the S3+GPG solution. However as far as I know the Keybase client is closed source, so everything you say also applies to them.
> 3) What is and is not open source is clearly documented in the Elastic repository. There is zero ambiguity here (legal or otherwise) unlike what Amazon implies in their marketing. If it's in the x-pack directory, it may be closed sourced (some plugins are OSS). If that bothers you, use the before mentioned OSS builds. Everything outside the x-pack directory is OSS. OSS here qualifies as Apache 2.0 licensed or compatible. It's that simple.

While this statement is true, it is not clearly documented in their actual documentation! For many years the pricing model around X-Pack was incredibly opaque and the documentation did everything possible to encourage you to use it while keeping the warnings around licensing issues were buried deep in the appendices.

I certainly didn't read elasticsearch's source tree when learning how to operate it -- I started in the docs like most everyone else.

Also, your super responsible sysadmins probably aren't pulling elastic's source code to run on your servers, they're using the distro packages (which do mix free and non-free) which is also what the docs tell you to do.
