Even though I disagree with it, I think it was still a valuable point.

Pharamacies, as critical medical infrastructure, need to do their best to dispense anything prescribed by a doctor.

They don't need to carry anything else. And convenience stores obviously don't have to carry anything in particular.

Ideally there's also a full suite of basic over the counter medicines but I wouldn't say it's a necessity at pharmacies. I would say it's very important that somewhere carries those...
The last athlete I worked with pointed out that you can only absorb about 800 cal an hour but burn way more than that, so you simply can’t eat fast enough to avoid losing weight during an even like this, but you’re talking about burning an extra pound off by not eating at all during events.

What’s your bodily complaint that makes this difficult?
There's no point in trying to explain things to someone who's aggressively defending their ignorance. (I have lots of experience being the aggressively ignorant guy.) Step one is realizing other people might know something you don't. After that it becomes useful to talk to you. Someone who's determined to dismiss what they're hearing can always find an excuse—especially in programming, where everything is Turing-complete anyway.
You are not the only one. Firewalls cut down on some leakage, but most are inherently not able to function without their cloud master. Sadly the easiest was to secure these devices is with a hammer.

That's actually something I'm working on right now. I'm trying to convert a Mazda RX-8, which has a weird gas tank that goes up and over the drive shaft. I think I can get about half my battery back where the gas tank was (which is right under the back seats).

I'm not sure where all the rest are going to go, but probably most will be in the engine compartment somewhere.

I could also use the space where the muffler was, but I'd have to make sure there's enough weight in the front of the car to offset it.

I would add to what you have stated that there's now a great deal of pressure for universities to continue to grow and increase profits. With enrollment beginning to slow it's rapid uptick of the last decade due to reduced unemployment, Universities are looking for the next bump.
I eventually started doing Ironman triathlons. There was something different about those compared to other things like marathons.

But I also wasn't as depressed as a lot of clinically depressed people are. But it could literally be a matter of volume.

But I learned a lot about myself, and once you do an Ironman even once, you have some confidence about doing something really really hard, and you have a (minor) superpower while you're in shape to do one.

So it might be a matter of volume. It might be a jog doesn't sufficiently trigger a subconscious feeling of accomplishment that a longer distance will.

It could be triathlons give you Napoleon Dynamite skills in more that one thing. Nice thing with exercise: you can do lots of things to get it, so try branching out from running. Lift a bit, yoga bit, bike a bit, swim a bit, X-C ski a bit, shoot buckets, trail run, etc.

Pretty much anyone homeless is going be eligible for Medicaid. Problem for them is navigating the system to get care.
Some inland rivers do import fish from other rivers to seed their hatcheries, but as an attempt to separate the hatchery and native runs based on run timing. E.g. steelhead from smaller coastal systems are used in lower Columbia tributaries in Oregon and SW Washington because they are genetically programmed to return and spawn in Nov/Jan and are generally gone before the native show up later in Feb/March. But this still creates artificial competition for resources once the fry from both runs have hatched.
It gets me too. I’ve found embracing the change with seasonal foods helpful. Buying produce from my local farmers market helps build some excitement and anticipation.
Why, these are flavors of CLOS or type-classes (rather type-traits) of Haskell.

Trait define what-it-takes-to-be-a instead of just is-a. This idea is fundamental and have been realized by all serious programmers.

Type-classes is the most important innovation since structural programming.

If you're able (you have insurance/can afford to), the single best thing you can do here is to see a professional. I've dealt with mild to moderate depression on and off for most of my adult life; four years ago my wife finally pushed me into seeing a professional, and I wish I'd done it 15 years ago. Working with him gave me some of the tools I needed to re-frame my thinking and break out of the sense of learned helplessness I was dealing with.

Meditation, diet, sleep, and exercise can all help, but ultimately it was talking to a professional that made the most difference; all those other things have helped to sustain it since then.

> In terms of raw mass, the amount of "audio"-videos outweighs actual videos…

That surprises me. Do you have a source?

From surveying a bunch of podcasters, I've found that typical audio-only podcast episodes posted to YouTube have very little engagement compared to the same content distributed as a podcast.

(Note that some podcasters can show you good "View" counts, which increment even if someone listens for just 30 seconds. But when you look at detailed analytics it seems like YouTube is an ineffectual platform for audio, and that it's probably a net negative on your audience if it's usurping even a few potential podcast subscribers.)
Thank you for the clear description!
You can’t eat trail mix all day long, but in small quantities it’s a good change of scenery. Bananas and Gatorade aren’t that bad.

We didn’t have this fancy stuff. And honestly for a couple days of touring? Autocannibalization isn’t that bad. Post rehydration, I think the worst I ever lost was three pounds, and I’ll bet half of that was still water weight. A deficit of 5,000 calories isn’t gonna kill you.

> What about the poor people who only have one hospital nearby that might not accept their insurance? What about people who go to a hospital that's in their network, but it turns out one of the many doctors was not? The people who have a time critical illness who can't afford to do the whole Free Market thing right after a accident?

All of these only apply to time-critical procedures. Otherwise you should be able to use the doctor and hospital which is covered.

Let's assume that emergency medicine should be provided by cities in the same way as other emergency services like fire companies. What's the argument for doing it that way for all medical services, including the ones that are not time sensitive and allow you plenty of time to shop around and choose the provider with the best combination of price, distance, scheduling availability, etc.?

> There's far too many variables at play for even software engineers to manage unless you dedicate a significant amount of your free time to maintaining an excel spreadsheet of every hospital near you and their prices, formulate the exact cheapest plan on the fly according to your personal needs and can pull that out immediately when you have a medical emergency.

This is hardly the only circumstance where there are many variables. Should the government buy everyone the same car because there are so many different choices between prices and safety ratings and fuel economy and performance? How does that even help, since the solution space is the same and government knows less about your priorities than you do?

Would you like to say any of those things? So far you've only given instructions that would take many hours to follow, not imparted knowledge or given a good description of why those instructions are worth the effort. You've given no hint of why the OP would be wrong, you've only been dismissive.

> They need to compete for our business.

No, they don't. When you're out of breath with pain running down your left arm and are about to collapse, you're going to try to get to the nearest hospital, not first shop around to see which one has the most competitive rates like you're buying a new car or something.
Thanks for that additional insight, I had not known it was also called reading the law. I think yeah if you pass the bar exam you deserve to be good to go for sure. I assume those who do this are not considered to have "studied law" which is what the OP in this thread is seemingly missing in my opinion.

> Most people's hardest task was mounting the motor to their transmission, because it often meant a custom designed, and custom machined mounting plate.

Canadian Electric Vehicles makes transmission adapters for a surprisingly large number of vehicles [1]. They come with adapters to attach a typical electric motor (1 1/8" keyed shaft) to the stock flywheel. So, that part at least is easy for quite a few cars (though could probably be done cheaper by someone with the right tools).

You're still pretty much on your own when it comes to mounting the motor/transmission to the car frame, but that's generally an easier problem that doesn't require as much precision.

Regarding your list of things you haven't tried, you should certainly try 2 or 6 and 7 before bothering with the other potential solutions (if you're able). Your diet and your exercise habits are going to be play the biggest role in your physical and mental well-being. I would not bother with supplements. The general efficacy of supplements is debated and you should be getting all of the nutrients you need from your diet anyway. If you're not able to try diet and exercise changes due to depression symptoms you should consider 9 (and 5 at the doctor's discretion).

Sleep is important but you should only be sleeping for as long as your body needs it. Going to bed earlier can help you find the point at which you're waking up naturally and from there you can decide how much time you need to sleep.

Philosophy and self-reflection are really two very different things. Studying philosophy in my experience hasn't improved my mood. Reading and learning in general might, and you might find that reading about philosophy is a passion you didn't know you had, but you aren't going to pick up a philosophy book and just internalize a worldview that will cure your depression. Self-reflection on the other hand will also not cure your depression, but it may help you identify the deeper triggers in your SAD that you could potentially address. What if your depression is not triggered by the temperature? Your problem would likely not be solved by moving to a warmer country.

I was curious about whether or not there was an IPA version (which would then work for any language) -- one of the first results I found was Eudex, which looks a little different (since it's a hash of the pronunciation) but more versatile.

So he's going to continue to waste:

Aside from the moral implications of the method of debt collection itself (harassing the most helpless), this is basically a crime against everyone. Such a waste.
A lot of regulations are actually a lot more reasonable than one might think and refrain from mandating any specific technical measures.

Yet, people always seem to point to regulations to justify all kinds of snake oil salesmen garbage, even if obviously unfit to fulfill the stated objective.

>“My argument is with people who dismiss intelligent design without considering, it seems to me — it’s widely dismissed in my world of academia as some sort of theological put up job — it’s an absolutely serious scientific argument,” Gelernter said during his interview.

I wonder what testable hypotheses stemming from Intelligent Design Gelernter would propose investigating? He must have at least one if he considers it to be a "serious scientific argument." Perhaps discussing those scientific specifics was outside the scope of this puff piece?
I moved from Seattle to Austin and I no longer had seasonal affective disorder in the fall and winter.

However, I did get a little depressed in August, because that's when you realize that summer began 4 months ago, and there's still 2.5 months of 100 degree days to go.

Depending on how far north you are and how cloudy, going outside in nature might be beneficial. For me I find that being in a city when it's dark is super depressing, but if I give my body some contextual clues -- the look and smell of autumn leaves, eating autumn food, etc. -- it can help. Then my brain puts the darkness into "circle of life" category a bit more instead of "the light is fading and with it comes death!"

That said, I think that would not work for me in Seattle. It's too dark and too overcast. But has worked for me a bit better in southern New England.

Wow that is a fantastic story! Kudos for completing your PhD!

Would you mind expanding a bit more about your PhD? Which school did you go to? Did you find that your age made it more difficult to get in/stay in once accepted? How did you handle family commitments (if you had them)?

Reason I ask is because I've been considering going back to school to get a PhD.

Again, that is quite an achievement, so congrats!
I listened to that episode recently. Really dig your podcast; always looking forward to new episodes. I really appreciate the semi-esoteric topics while staying lucid and engaging (I think I found the podcast while I was mucking about with idris). Keep it up!
Depending on the car, that might not be a good idea as far as weight balance goes. I'm working on an RX-8 conversion, and the advice I got from a mechanic that works on Mazdas is not to put too much weight in the back, because it would make it much harder to recover from a skid.
Exercise is pretty much the number one thing.

I derive the normal equations in just two lines of matrix algebra, never use calculus, assume nothing about probability.

The normal equations are plenty simple to program in nearly any programming language. For the linear algebra, just use LINPACK or for a really simple approach just write your own Gauss elimination linear equations solver.

With the net incoming directly from their financials, how were they prevented from clearing lines of fire hazards? They are bankrupt NOW because they failed to act with the resources at hand. Did they argue for rate increases to make the lines safe while at the same time failing to use that net income to clear the lines of hazards?

There is this false dichotomy woven in your arguments equating rate increases with safety measures.

Did I say that there is magic in a PG&E dissolution? If the organizational structure of PG&E can't use the resources it has (people, money, influence) to operate the grid safely, someone else needs to take over. When someone is systematically lousy at their job, they get fired.

Your rhetoric is riddled with logical fallacies, you aren't making analogies that explain your reasoning. You are making straw men and putting words in my mouth.
Try watching this video; it will only take you 8 minutes, but within 3 minutes you should have an idea of why array languages are different from having an ndarray library available in Rust or having typeclasses in Haskell: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a9xAKttWgP4

After you watch that you will of course suspect that APL and other array languages like J are a sort of DSL for things like numerical linear algebra, which is of course what Numpy and Octave are. (Even though the Game of Life isn't linear algebra, it's very clearly matrix-based, so it doesn't seem that far off.) Dyalog has posted some other videos demonstrating the use of their proprietary APL for different things, but I think a more interesting one is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e0rywC7-i0U, by J inventor Roger Hui. This is an hour and a half, but it demonstrates some approaches to reducing different problems to multidimensional arrays, of pointers ("boxes") in some cases.

This ought to be enough to convince you that there's an alien kind of thinking here, quite different from the Haskell and Rust approaches, that can be applied to a wide variety of problems.

Now, I'm not Stevan Apter, so I'm not going to try to convince you that this alien kind of thinking is better. But it's clearly different, and different ways of thinking work best in different situations.

This is a really neat project. But the website undersells it. It took me until reading the docs to understand that this is an alternative to many raw Windows utilities / PowerShell commands, which (to me) are notoriously hard to remember and have goofy capitalization.

For example:

update

Instead of

wuauclt /updatenow

Or, to enable Windows Biometrics:

install feature biometrics

Instead of:

dism /online /Enable-Feature /FeatureName:Biometrics

Really, really great. But both the landing page and the About page desparately need a "quick to see" example of the project. I didn't even read past the first paragraph in the About page, to be honest. Make it prominent what the app is right away on the splash page.

Edit: The new About page is much better!

I carefully define all symbols. I keep the math really simple; the only prerequisite is matrix multiplication; don't need matrix inverse. For matrix transpose, I define that. For squared length of a vector, I define that, too. I don't use calculus, derivatives, or probability. I derive the normal equations in just two lines of matrix algebra.
What if an alien, intelligent life force designed the big bang as a procedural generation of some eventual purpose? Although I don't necessarily see that in conflict with Darwin, as natural selection could be an aspect of intelligent design.

Victorians Invented the Computer Bug
Amazon Prime Video is not the same as Amazon Prime and Amazon Prime has nowhere near 62% (since 101m is less than 1/3 of the US population). If we're talking "households", that doesn't pan out either since the average US household has 2.6 people, right now. I would be willing to say these numbers aren't concrete, but they are closer to the ballpark of reality than a 62% market penetration when I can ask all my coworkers at a well-known company and 25% have Amazon Prime...and these are people with disposable income that allows for it as opposed to people working out of an airport in Minnesota.
Sports cars usually have stiff sway bars, which are generally better for high grip situations. Your truck, and rally cars will generally have less or no sway bars because in a hard off road corner, weight will transfer to the outside wheels which helps them bite into the ground and keep you on track. A car with stiff sway bars and suspension will slide out horizontally because the whole car stays much flatter in the corner.
