I relate a lot. I'm 28 and I have an ADHD diagnosis. There has been a lot of public debate on this topic in Sweden of late. I got my diagnosis at age 23 and had already finished a bachelor degree. My first psychologist said "I'm sure you dont have ADHD if you finished a bachelor" lol although at the time my life was a rollercoaster. Today im doing great and love the challenging nature of software development. However i eat medicine and realise that exercise and routines are extremely important to mitigate symptoms.

>How is this different from voting by mail, then?

WA also has vote by mail, but this kind of online voting is very different.

To vote by mail, you have to receive the ballot at your address, physically mark your choices, and then mail it back in. The potential for fraud or abuse of this system is fairly limited.

To vote with this WA online voting system, you need to know the name and the date of birth, that's it. Aside from illegality of voting fraud, the potential for abuse is just humongous, all you need is just a dataset of names and DOB.

What I Learned About Cars
Segawa's is completely irrelevant in this case and not supported by any symptoms the author reports in the original article. I have diagnosed Segawa's. It is quite irresponsible to wave people off of successful treatments of ADHD, as you're doing here, because of your family's (unfortunate) history with a genetic disease. I apologize that we know little about Segawa's and you've had a journey to understand it, but there is approximately zero overlap between common ADHD symptoms and the presentation of Segawa's, which is primarily motor-related.

Please, don't read comments like these and distance yourself from treatment. There is always more to a study.

Who says that's everyone's goal? There are plenty of people in the world, and even in this forum, who only care about saving "some" of humanity. And in topics about the environment or population, you'll find people (even on this forum) who aren't interested in saving any of it.

The tap water in my current house is perfectly fine, so why should I even have a filter? My previous house the water wasn't perfectly fine (I forget what was in it, but the lab failed it) so I had a separate filter rated to take out the bad things in my water - again why replace the fridge filter that wasn't as good.
>In essence we'd be diluting the vote of those who care the most with those who think voting by mail is too hard.

I travel a lot. So much so that I am actually flying back to Iowa from the West Coast for 2 days in order to participate in the caucus, and flying out again for work the following day. While I am ok with purchasing a plane ticket to participate, it's understandable that others in my situation, particularly in less important states, would not be ok with incurring that cost. Being able to vote by phone would enable absentee voters who are not always around to participate in their home state's elections.

With that being said I understand I am a fringe case - but those who don't vote because "voting by mail is too hard" are likely a fringe case as well. I'd venture to guess those same people wouldn't vote because "they don't want another app on their phone".
I don't think it's a causative relationship. My feeling is that there are a group of disorders related to Dopamine production that overlap with ADHD, for obvious reasons, and if you have one of those you're more likely to get diagnosed with ADHD.

On the flip side, getting treatment for those disorders, provided you have one of them, can also help with some of the ADHD symptoms.

Meds didn't work for me, they just made me feel in overdrive, and I have a high sense of awareness so I always knew in the back of my mind the drugs were just making me high for a short amount of time. It never felt like real progress.

However, exercise, diet, and prayer cause my symptoms to almost vanish. In particular, keeping sugar content extremely low. Also being aware of my cues when I know my leg is going to start bouncing up and down and the impulse of doing anything _but_ my work is about to kick in (such as viewing this site for hours), and using behavioral modification techniques to mitigate this. Making good habits is especially important for ADHD people. It's not easy, but take comfort knowing it is doable. You can make progress today.
>He is not, in truth, an anarchist.

He's also the creator of the Anarchist Yacht Club and has produced voice content for Audio Anarchy audiobooks. In his documentary about sailing (Hold Fast, it's really good) he flies a black flag.

I don't think it's the bigger issue.

Even in the water filter scenario, let's assume everyone has this fridge and is regularly buying filters. They had temporary growth in revenue but now that everyone has fridges + filters it's mostly stable again.

Do you think they'll stop there? The unsustainable idea we have of running a business would suggest they should be doing something else to even further increase the profits.
How Do Lava Lamps Help with Internet Encryption?
Thanks for this response! I think it might help me understanding.

However, there is a difference between "why" and "why", right? I do not question its "existence" (user count can prove that), but the reasons behind its being used - so I might be aware of things going on (user count itself can't add information about that).

Isn't that the case that people who want "some change" based on their (not too good) experiences - maybe sometimes they can't even recognize/express what they really need so accurately and what concrete things they are looking for - are likely to engage with new groups and norms which might just be a better experience for them - without any "formal requirements" and more like based on sensation? And the words/phrases/memes they "click on" are probably the same as other similar people "click on". And in that context "woman" might be an associative meme to these other memes: helpful, empathy, understanding, caring, respectful, misunderstood, minority. So explicitly using "woman" as a "meme" might be attractive to the people who are looking for or relate this other qualities/memes.

(I say woman as a "meme", because it's not for women only, so actually it seems to me it means more than its original meaning.)

This is just an idea how I can imagine what it MIGHT be about, any comment on that is welcome.
How do you use it right? I was on stimulants as a kid and they worked but made me feel emotionally empty and suppressed my appetite and energy. I’m 28 now and I’ve started taking it again to help with work. The appetite suppression is gone but the emotional apathy remains. If you have suggestions or experiments to make the best use of these meds I’d love to hear them. I started with the lowest possible dose.

Also, your comment on python ... very very true
Be careful with the stimulants -- I say this not as a value judgment but because they can have cognitive side effects that impair your ability to understand you're having those side effects.

Even when they work well there will be some collateral damage with stimulants. I was a great employee on them, but I was a shitty, narcissistic friend. The focus many people get from stimulants is an inward focus, which makes it easy to get things done but hard to empathize with other people. As a result I didn't have many friends, and once I started wanting more out of life I realized the stimulants were holding me back from personal growth. The inward focus clouded my ability to understand why people didn't like me -- I couldn't make enough space for another person to even see why people didn't want to be around me.

I'm not saying that stimulants don't help (they totally do) but you should understand what you want out of your life and how that aligns what you get out of the drugs.
Much better for me because I had a cassete tape drive where I could save my programs. It had a counter. I kept a piece of paper with the counter numbers so I could fast forward/rewind to get to specific programs I'd saved on tape.

I made games on it. When BASIC wasn't fast enough for what I wanted to do I looked into Assembly. I sent snail mail to Motorola asking where I could buy the 6809E assembler manual, and they sent me one for free.

How can you vote in less than 5 minutes? For president, sure, but state elections have dozens of people you've never heard of and non-partisan positions and ballot issues. It's only really possible to vote in less than 5 minutes if you're obsessed with state politics or if you're letting somebody else's thinking (either a newspaper or state party) substitute for your own. I think I'd rather you didn't vote.

There are numerous Irish mutual-aid societies, most of which were set up to offset systematic discrimination against people of Irish descent in earlier times.

The argument is not that some groups have a sort of ephemeral power. The argument is that they had actual systematic power, and that minorities within a given sphere often lack actual power because their specific needs go overlooked.

That depends upon the metric used to measure it. If one were to use life expectancy, college attainment, or judicial bias the metrics show a bit different of a response. Granted, this does differ greatly in some countries, but the 'our society' in general usage is meant on a society by society basis and not to take the world wide average of all societies. Our society does have a significant glass ceiling in place, but there is also a significant glass floor which seems to be often given far less attention in these sorts of discussions.
Mathematicians are looking for exact solutions, programmers are looking for approximate solutions. This explains the differing perspectives claimed in the article.

I find myself almost in tears reading certain parts of the article. Growing up I was also the, “Smart, but lazy” kid, and my parents just told me I was a bad kid who needed more discipline. I always felt like my brain just worked differently and spent decades feeling fundamentally “broken” because I was just too “unmotivated” and didn’t have enough “will-power”. To this day I struggle with feeling inadequate because of the message I heard.

That being said, I’m fortunate in that I’ve worked with a therapist who saw the ADHD (along with PTSD) symptoms and put a name to them. They pointed out that I’d basically been self-medicating with caffeine since I was a young kid. Even just having the acknowledgment and having words put to it has made a huge difference for me. Now I know it’s not some moral failing and laziness. My brain is just different and I have to figure out ways to make it work (currently those ways are medication, writing, therapy, and some incorporation of Buddhist teachings in my life).
> And yes, you need a quality power supply...

Do you have a recommendation in this regard?
I'm not misinterpreting your post. You diagnosed the author with Segawa's based on your experiences by pointing out you wouldn't be surprised if he "had something similar". He does not, with certainty. You're also warning folks that the only consistently successful treatments we have for this (much, much more common) hyperactivity disorder are associated with unlikely neurological outcomes. Sure, an 8x increase sounds high, until you realize that it's multiplying a mere fraction, context you do not include.

I'm sorry to appeal to authority here, but comments like these do actually harm people by shying them away from treatment (just look at your replies), and please don't write them. Again, I'm sorry you're dealing with Segawa's, but even your edits in response to my comment are making your statement more harmful because they're based in pure speculation.

Seattle is an interesting case. On the one hand, it has lots of progressive policies. On the other hand, tech companies formed there in large part because Washington State has no income tax (something which conservatives more often advocate for).

> The #1 thing that I need from Mint is 100% reliable integrations

So Mint does it's own integrations instead of using something like Yodlee or Plaid. For me, Mint has been way more rock solid than sites that use the others. All of them have gotten way worse over the years as banks have cranked up security and generally been hostile to APIs like this.

Personally, I'm looking to move my financial services in order to get better integrations (specifically faster ACH transfers and integrations like Mint). There's no reason a secure solution (that doesn't involve me giving Mint my credentials and allows read-only access) can't be widely adopted.
