Short Answer:

Ritalin functions as a DRI (Dopamine reuptake inhibitor).

One of the theories is that ADHD could be a lack of Dopamine.
I'd argue that ATAK is closer to a "combat iPhone" system than AFATDS, which is uniquely focused on field artillery coordination.

I think that one article doesn't prove that Yang's campaign is driven by bots.

I'm a 42 year old programmer who has never voted before. I am voting for Yang because his policies are superior and the other candidates have outdated policies or worldviews.

I have contributed around $400 or $500 and if there is something we are "trying to trend" I will retweet it (even though I never really used Twitter before now).

By the way, Yang has received endorsements from people like Elon Musk, Sam Altman, Dave Chappelle, Donald Glover, Jack Dorsey, Alexis Ohanian, James Gunn.

Saying the campaign is driven by bots is an unsubstantiated smear.
Actually, I don't at all. A lot of people in tech agree with me on this. See thread.
Interesting, thanks for elaborating
I suppose the NLP idea has been for first RNN and LSTM and now that Transformer and friends to act as a kind of memory. Mostly those memories have been pretty black box however, and it is interesting if ideas from data structures etc. could be useful.
Perhaps "ugliest" here means "least attractive", in the sense of causing the most indifference, or requiring the largest counterveiling force of other attention-grabbing properties to attract someone's attention. I.e., the least marketable color.

Magenta might be hideous when swatched together with most random colors that exist in the natural world, or in society; but it's certainly also attention-grabbing in a way that can be used for effect. (It's on plenty of movie posters!)
Fifteen seconds 1500 times stops being negligible.

And it is more convenient in multiple ways. Also you don't mess up the nice cold air in the fridge.

It's a tradeoff but it's not a lopsided one.

Most websites start out like wikipedia and then they feel the constant pressure to expand and now they have a mountain of expenses to cover so they tarnish the website in an effort to squeeze every last $ out of the user.

This non-apology announces no changes, and does nothing for Sonos owners worrying which product get cut off next. They're even still selling the Connect on their site - with no warnings! https://www.sonos.com/en-gb/shop/connect.html

It seems completely incompetent, but makes sense if you believe they're going to be acquired this year.

Ben Einstein said last in July 18 (https://blog.bolt.io/sonos-one/) Sonos are "a traditional speaker manufacturer incrementally adding technology in an attempt to keep up with a fast-moving race". Sonos probably still have the best multi-room speaker solution, but 1) their lead on that is slipping, and 2) I don't think new buyers care about multiroom as much as they do streaming services & features - i.e. the bits Sonos must be being squeezed on.

Their proposed solution for customers with old devices is a software-managed network split between old & new - that will kills multiroom playback for holdouts! That's the worst of both worlds - Sonos paying programmers to prop up old devices, while owners still prepare to see a fundamental degradation in their system.

Then the tie-in with IKEA seems like an enormous dilution of their brand. Now you can buy Sonos components from IKEA, and the IKEA home app can also control all of your Sonos speakers (not just the IKEA ones).

So that's that I think they have a deal in the works (IKEA?) - and they're massaging a few quarters to show briefly increased profitability while the long-term vision can go to hell.

In that light, cutting off old products in the face of so many angry customers makes sense. They remove a legacy support liability instantly, allowing them to be bullish about future R&D costs. And the angry customers are the ones bought into Sonos' 15yo product vision - they just may not represent much future revenue.
Bringing drugs to market requires a lot of money. And the whole process takes a long time (order of a decade).

Subsidizing the tests or doing more marketing would sell more tests, but wouldn't speed up drug development. And doing so would burn up money that could be used for drug development.

And even though the licensing deal is promising, there has been no drug brought to market yet based on 23andMe's data. So it's a hard sell to investors.
This is an interesting comment from multiple directions. 1) because I could see someone calling __this__ comment a bot comment, but you're much more active here and so it seems like you aren't. 2) Because if you are real, it really shows the idea (I suggested this in another comment too) that Yang Gangers come off as bots. (I also found the statement about Yang accounts being linked to MAGA accounts as evidence as funny).
People who are looking for VC funding for their business consider it a slur, because VCs will use it as a reason not to fund.

To give an analogy: “family car” is a good way of describing a safe car that fits a lot of passengers. But if you set up your SUV for rock-crawling and somebody calls it “a nice family car” you might consider it a slur.

My personal experience here is a bit limited - I grew up in the states but after college I emigrated up to Canada so... yea I generally get scripts from my gp up here for a full year's supply at a time and end up paying something like 1/30th of a cent (CAD) per pill for it. While I was in the states I had to fight to keep my script when I transitioned from my parent's insurance to my employer's in college, and ended up paying 9$/pill for a few months but I accessibility was always maintainable without ever seeing a psych except for initial diagnosis in middle school.

So... I guess I got pretty lucky on the whole.
Yea, the HTD 'receiver' is seperate from the amps, and it can route one of I think 12 sources to any of the channels (and any mix of them).

For control, there are two options - You can use the app/web page/iphone/table over wireless, and/or you can also use their wall control pads that use a single Cat5 drop back to the central location. For every speaker pair in the house I ran a Cat6A to a wall box in a good place to mount that control pad. That means in every room you have a control pad for that room, but also any control pad can put any source in any zone.

I'm curious to see what I use more.. I suspect I'll end up using the app control more than anything else.. but we will see.
There's a lot of misinformation to unpack here. Your information is definitely out of date.

I learned BSD largely from the man pages, but man pages on Linux distributions always felt a bit deficient to me, partly because of GNU utilities with placeholder man pages that just said "use info instead" and partly because of (at the time at least) many missing EXAMPLES sections.

I think they've improved greatly, but man pages on Debian, Ubuntu et al. still feel a bit like second-class citizens.

What TLDR pages seem to be getting right is putting EXAMPLES first or second rather than last, and/or having a command to bring up EXAMPLES.

Also I want to put in a plug for AUTHORS/HISTORY and BUGS sections. The former can create a sense of community and context and the latter can point out annoying gotchas.
If anyone has ever tried pushing two strong magnets together at the spots where the same poles are facing one another, where the magnets repel instead of attract, they can understand a bit about what its like to try and focus on something that isn't very stimulating on ADHD.

Each time you try, just as you get close, they slide off one another and all around, until they stick at a different spot. Those sticky spots, are all the very stimulating tasks.
He wasn't arguing the current interpretation of the law as much as proposing an amendment.

I don't think that HN, nor the community at large does as much as say twitter or reddit to stifle opposing points of view. Relegating extremist to their own echo-chambers is a good way of proliferating their beliefs. Were their ideas exposed to the world where they would have to defend them, they may be dissuaded from holding such extreme beliefs, or a passerby may see the flaws in their argument.
Part of the cognitive breakage was that he won the electoral college by taking states that had been traditional Democratic strongholds.
Honestly, recent Macs are running contemporary titles more than well enough. Not everyone cares about turning the graphics sliders up. On Windows or otherwise. I've been playing Deus Ex: Mankind Divided just fine lately, and Overwatch works well if I boot Windows, for example. Most MMOs and popular "e-sports titles" (pretty much the core of PC gaming, by numbers) like Counter-Strike, the MOBAs and such are all there on the Mac side.

Most AAA games are designed with the trash hardware of consoles in mind, so laptops with more powerful GPUs handle them just fine. Apple's desktop offerings are abominable in terms of value and sticker price, but they pretty much own the non-Walmart-quality laptop market...

HN can't decide if Facebook is irrelevant, or oppressive, but it's definitely one of those.

Not really. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pretty_Woman

I have to say, simply because the woman was a stripper does not preclude her from being an effective manager. Perhaps the article could have spent more time talking about dubious moral and unethical things that she did rather than her past history of removing her clothing.

Profiling like this is only necessary when your life is potentially in danger, like being a cop in a dark alley. We're a modern society, can't we treat everyone as individuals to be respected?
I don't think there's very good correlation between generally ugly colors and those that make bad backgrounds. A lot of colors are good accents but would be terrible background - probably anything at 100% saturation, 100% value (in HSV space) falls into this category, including the magenta you so dislike.
Thanks!

> In that case you can give "requirements" what is needed to work with you in your tempo, right?

This part is clear. Yes. I would give those requirements, although probably not with term - not like it's a job interview or something.

> What the discussion is about (at least to me)

This is clear.

> is not about the right of picking your people to go together with

This is not clear? It's a very convoluted sentence.

> but about the specific, concrete "requirements"

This is mostly clear. What do you see as the requirements being implemented by the new platform?
I'm curious why you think it's weird for a group of people to believe passionately about a candidate?

Mindfulness is the simplest, and there's not much to getting started. Try it now.

Take five to fifteen minutes. Focus your attention on, and notice your breathing. You will immediately become distracted. Notice thoughts as they arise, and attempt to return your attention to your breathing. Repeat as necessary or desired.

The subjective experience of this loop changes the more practice you get. You haven't failed if you can't reach a steady-state. You're already in steady-state of yourselfness.
Qt doesn’t cut it; it’s designed for something completely different: windowed GUIs, not (3D) games. It’s the same reason why you wouldn’t make a game using WinForms. Basically, games use a different architecture than GUIs.
Yes, I get the analogy. But the actual case to which it refers has much broader implications.
Fair point, that slipped my mind.

Electric vehicles are far more promising and compelling as a large scale solution to replace most existing consumer ICE transportation, but there are probably some roles for ICE vehicles using carbon neutral fuels.
"The sales executive hired a stripper as a Subsys sales representative to help persuade doctors to boost prescriptions. The woman, named Sunrise Lee, eventually was promoted to oversee a third of the company's sales force."

Stripper or no--it sounds like she was an effective sales representative.

As for stripping: one of my college classmates was getting her engineering degree and worked as a stripper. Her comment: "I have a 3 year old daughter and I'm getting an engineering degree--both are time consuming. I can strip two days a week for 6 hours each day and bank $2000. What other job can I get that pays better than $150 per hour?"

As long as a stripper doesn't get involved in booze and drugs, she can bank a LOT of money. The problem is that the folks running strip clubs are generally complete scum and are actively trying to get the strippers to use alcohol and drugs as it gives the owners more control.

Well, it ascribes an intent that may not be there. Why do you assume that the business is actively limiting growth, as opposed to trying but failing to grow? It's like calling something a pet project. You can say that about your own project, but if somebody else calls it a pet project, it could rightly be construed as demeaning.
Obviously a dark horse Democratic candidate would claim MAGA support, that's a tactic to present as "electable".
Actually, they are expressly prohibited from using your genetic information to make decisions about your coverage. It's the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (GINA) [1], where:

> ... health insurers may not use genetic information to make eligibility, coverage, underwriting or premium-setting decisions.

However, it doesn't apply to all insurance:

> It does not cover long-term care insurance, life insurance, or disability insurance.

What We Learned by Teaching an AI to Write Super Bowl Ads
If it's a hex code or RGB value it is a Pantone equivalent anyway and may or may not be in the realm of accurate, and is likely not even close if your monitor is not well calibrated. So it probably doesn't much matter what hex code they use as long as it's in the general area. Pantone colors at their heart are ink mixing formulas for spot printing on specific papers.

I think it's funny that in a thread about a Pantone color, no one has posted it's CMYK value. C:39 M:47 Y:81 K:67 would be a better representation but it would still depend on the printer, the inks it uses and what material the color is printed on. Yes, I live in Pantone. I'll have to check out the real color in the coated book in the morning...
The article count would actually be much higher if they weren't diligent about deleting or merging articles that they don't find notable.

> Isn't this a little like saying "in part that's due to the fact that conservatives are persuasive"?

At the risk of the No True Scotsman fallacy: Today's right wingers are more ethno-nationalist than Burkean conservative; they're persuasive mainly to others who are predisposed to believe the ethno-nationalist message and in the supposed superiority of their own in-group, which in the U.S. of course is mainly white Christian males.

(For context: I was an old-fashioned conservative Republican for most of my life. But then I worked my way around to the view that a corollary to the First Commandment is: Face the facts — live in the world wrought by the Creator, not the one that you wish existed. Then there's the notion that we're all created co-creators, to borrow a term used by Lutheran theologian Philip Hefner [0], working in the service of what you might call the Great Project, the continuing creation of a universe through natural processes, with the Summary of the Law being the two key rules for our effective participation [1], not unlike Conway's Game of Life [2]. Finally, life's experiences persuaded me of the wisdom of John Rawls's veil of ignorance [3], which incidentally seems to tie in nicely with the Golden Rule. All those things moved me decidedly away from conservatism, and eventually out of today's GOP entirely.)

I agree, this is definitely something to worry about. The reason I brought it up wasn't to dismiss such worries, but to highlight the fact that even if someone isn't worried about the health insurance aspect today, they definitely should worry about how the collection of their genetic data could impact their ability to purchase other types of insurance.
Due process: a lot of this comes from regulation targeted at large tech cos. Eg my illegal site could be criminally prosecuted and shut down with a court order but the courts are too busy so they just hold the provider criminally liable instead, forcing the provider into violating due process.
