I haven't looked again at this thread until now (I hadn't noticed the little karma ticker in my HN account go up), so apologies for missing this.

I've just seen your comment below and it's great to see that people in this community are curious about these ideas and mental health more broadly. I don't think you misrepresented my point at all; in fact you engaged with it in a way I hadn't considered before. I think it's essential to remind ourselves just how freakin' young psychology, psychiatry, "mental health", and all within these things (especially ACT) really are. I don't think the public really knows how little we know as a profession, and how much many of the most touted interventions are, from researchers' points of view, really just modest attempts at making a positive impact. The public certainly aren't aware of the possible negative consequences of mental health treatments, including psychotherapy. And I'm sad to say many of my colleagues don't think a lot about this potential for _iatrogenesis_ , as it's known, either. All of which is to say that the more that intelligent people, like yourselves here on HN, engage critically with mental health, the better.

I'll gladly continue posting here, and I thank you for the encouragement. It doesn't seem like HN has direct messages, sadly, otherwise I'd happily offer you or anyone else to reach out in private any time.
A lot of people have dismissed Redux and even roll their eyes when it's mentioned these days. I'm still a big fan after all these years. The recent improvements such as the toolkit, slices and integration of ImmerJS make Redux much smoother and reduce the boilerplate a lot. For apps that have lots of state, I've yet to find a pattern I like better.
Wax tablets were also a writing surface, and are worth mentioning.

> It was from Morocco that paper spread into Europe, via the Iberian penisula, in the 11th century.

Also known as Al-Andalus, or Islamic Spain. Perhaps the most influential force in the history of Europe. The ones that brought paper, philosophical and scientific literature, the scientific method, higher education, secularism, free trade, their architecture, etc.

At the time they were the torchbearers of knowledge.
Hey David, looks really impressive. And so nice to see some older enterpreneurs out there!

Strange that there’s just another spaced repetition show HN just next to this one. What are the odds?

I’m a co-founder of Kenhub[0] and we use some spaced repetition techniques in our quizzes. But it’s quite different still. The bigger difference for us is that we create and curate the content. I’m wondering if there’s some opportunity for collaboration. See contact details in my profile if you’d like to chat some time.

I don't know, I feel like they just have access to this data so they're using it.

There are many 3rd party app store intelligence products out there. And you can buy incredible datasets from some tracking companies. There are only as many popular things out there, have a hard time believing that they fundamentally wouldn't be able to do it without the more privileged access.

Wouldn't be surprised if they are actually using a ton of 3rd party data too, but only this kind of usage makes headlines as it seems "wrong".
I had to do the same with a number of my favorite news sites, including hacker news, while I’m working.

It was shocking how many times I would open the browser to Google something and find myself reading stupid political news instead of working.

I also installed a cli google searcher. That was helpful too.
>But secondary trading is still a zero-sum game.

No, since stocks can uniformly rise. Thus I can trade a lower performing stock (which can still increase) for a higher performing one, so that was not zero sum for me. The buyer could have turned cash into those stocks, so he could have gained too.

So we both gained from the transaction didn't we? Doesn't seem zero sum while stocks grow, and there's no mathematical requirement them to return to those previous prices.

This also doesn't cover value for price signalling, the empirical fact these patterns have returned significant money to investors through lower spreads, or the fact that primary markets don't function without functioning secondary markets.

Calling it zero sum is a bit shortsighted I think.

> you have to wonder why so many firms like these continue to print money year after year

They haven't. A few have - most don't do so well. Buffet's hedge fund bet ended pretty spectacularly. As a group hedge funds have underperformed index funds for some time (if not always, net of costs), so they're not extracting money, except from investors.

Net gains from the top 20 or so funds are around $20B annually, while managing a few trillion in assets. This seems like an incredibly small amount of gain for the assets managed.
Google Vision API is eons ahead of tessaract in its OCR capabilities. I was quite impressed how good it was when trying to read ID numbers from scans.
I was a broken person for part of my late teens and early twenties. Associated with the wrong people, got arrested once, then fell into alcoholism to self medicate my pain that stemmed from how much I hated myself.

Growing up, one of my parents subjected me to regular physical and emotional abuse while the other parent taught me to accept this bad behavior as normal.

I eventually entered into a codependent dysfunctional relationship that while toxic in so many ways also gave me the confidence I needed to end my substance abuse.

There are plenty of broken people. That doesn’t mean they can’t be repaired.

Yes, and my example of an unrolled version of the early exit loop does stop at the first character, despite being unrolled.

(That is an interesting example, though, and I think is a good proof that generating extra reads is not permitted.)
Thanks for the analogy.

I just wish there was a global switch for disabling new features (where possible) by default.

These would then be re-enabled by individual switches, so accepting new updates would just apply security fixes to existing features, and not create usability and security issues from unwanted new features.

Not everyone wants to be the beta tester for endless new features, especially if they prefer stability and are happy with the existing functionality.

Snatches and clean and jerks are certainly more technically involved than any movement you'd see in bodybuilding or powerlifting. You train fewer motor patterns with much higher frequency than other strength sports. It lacks the variation in movement that you'd see in bodybuilding, let alone dance. It's also very rigid, there's no creative element to it. I'd hazard a guess that it's more similar, in terms of brain plasticity, to strength sports than dance.

Garmin CEO at al must be reading this impatiently, looking for some clever-magic clue, which is not gonna arrive, I am afraid.

Meanwhile Garmin watches users (like me) are wondering how it is that syncing my watch that I have bought with an application on my smartphone that I have bought requires presence of some distant online service.

I can understand that some parts like "social" stuff might depend on some central service but, hey, something simple like syncing ones excercise achievements between phone and watch? Really? Who has designed that?
I'd avoid using this terminology with people who are hurting. The feeling of being "broken" tends to reinforce negative thoughts.

Yes. I really like Julia but I wish there was language that had all of the advantages of Julia but none of the drawbacks (for me it's lack of static typing, function(object) vs the more readable object.function(), 1-based indexing).

> The article confirms that this was due to a bug in iOS and is not Instagram's fault.

Where does it do that? As far as I can tell, Instagram is calling the camera APIs when it doesn't need to and iOS is flagging that as it should.
Entirely true, but what's the hard fix? I'm skeptical of the federal plan to arrest a bunch of people until the problem stops, but it's at least a plan - if no one else can come up with one, I don't see much choice but to accept it.
> law doesn't say parent or guardian. Only an adult. ...

Same still applies for anyone who is not one of the threeish people I had in my close circle at that point.

I said I disagreed with what the law states, and listed my reasons. I know it's 16 and younger, I said that I believe it should be 14, or 15 at the absolute highest.
I don't yet, but let me get back to you in a couple days. I think it'd be interesting to all.
Oh, absolutely, the trick demonstrated in the article is significantly better. (That I had to elide 75% of the instructions in the psuedo-code that I wrote is practically proof of that.) My point was only that it is possible to unrolled the loop without introducing UB.

> That's a dangerous statement on it's own.

I'm not sure how best to say it.

Implementing primitives & protocols requires little cryptographic knowledge. It does however require significant knowledge about program correctness: testing methods, proofs, and if side channels are important, the characteristics of your platform, and an accurate enough idea how your compiler or interpreter works.

Likewise, to implement an energy constant implementation of Chacah20 in silicon, you don't need a cryptographer, you need a hardware designer. The only thing you need a cryptographer for, is telling the hardware designer to make it constant energy — or convincing the higher ups why the extra cost is justified.

The blog post you link (which I love by the way) seems to confirm my view: many problems are ones of correctness. I believe most such bugs would be caught by corrupting the inputs, as I alluded to. Here, corrupting the password would fail to abort, and you'd catch the bug.

How is ransomware able to spread to all the PCs in a company? (Especially PCs at different locations around the globe)

The malware needs to execute itself on each computer. But I would think this would be thwarted by hardware firewalls as well as apps like Windows Firewall.

If my PC at work gets infected, somehow it can magically infect the guy down the hall's PC too? I thought that was made impossible years ago.
Being one microsecond faster is worth all the profit, but did the market gain as much with one microsecond less latency as with 1 second or one minute less latency? No. But the payoff for achieving it is just as high, winner takes all to whomever is fastest, so the market will put as much money into shaving off an additional microsecond as a minute, if it makes the difference on being first.
After playing with AiDungeon I think you are right about the data not being up to par. It fails more frequently than it appears in the news. Has some brilliant moments too.

For example, when prompted to talk about deep learning it generated a nonsense paragraph. This is not unexpected, but when it generates news or dialogue it can be coherent on much larger pieces of text. Clearly shows it didn't read too much on the topic.

I can hardly make it do any math. Even simple things like 11+22= don't work. I expect the next 10x scale up will fill most of these holes, especially if they improve the training corpus quality and breadth.
This isn’t true for every firm, but a lot of them do it.

I think it’s bad (it’s weird/unfair), but on the other hand I am happy not paying commission/getting orders filled at prices often a bit better than advertised on my broker’s app, so maybe it’s ok? Idk.

The biggest improvement IMO is the toolkit, which gives you an off the shelf packaged Redux implementation. The toolkit has support for slices and Immer out of the box.

“probably much more than necessary”

How exactly do you decide how much is necessary?. And is there any reason to think that they are extracting value from society rather than other market participants?

And is there any evidence that having one company make a billion dollars from other market participants is somehow worse for the system than having a million companies make a thousand dollars each?

The low spreads and liquidity are not some fact of nature - I’m pretty sure that a lot of it comes as a result of many people competing with each other to try and make money. I agree there are lot of people trying to screw their clients to make money in both the retail and the institutional markets (I used to work in sales for an I-bank). And I agree that those areas with conflict of interest are badly policed and do NOT help market structure or society as a whole. But my impression is that DE Shaw is a prop trading firm - where is the conflict of interest?

> The police and federal agents need to show respect for the peaceful protests during the day and the protesters need to respect a reasonable curfew so police can do their work stopping rioters and arsonists at night.

That was the hard fix. I don't believe the feds will be able to solve it this time by doing what they did in LA in 1992.

And if we simply restore the status quo using a show of force then these riots will happen again and again.
I think the comment from Bane, here above, has the best summary of how an exhibition could be set up.

> Do you really think it's unreasonable to ask that children out after 10pm (midnight during the summer months) have someone looking after their safety?

Through their 17th birthday? You bet your ass I do.

Don't get me wrong I remember what I was like at those ages. But the experiences and pain I had during those years when I had a much larger safety net have paid back many times over in avoiding or safely navigating those same types of experiences without nearly as much support.

I was not always safe during those years. But without those experiences I would have made much more irreversible mistakes.

Eventually children have to grow up, and part of growing up is being responsible for your own health and safety. Robbing children of practice in a safer environment is not keeping them safe, even if it feels like it in the moment.

Works quite well. Input images must have geo data in the exif metadata like longitude, latitude, FOV, camera pitch (most drones e.g. Autel and DJI drones will include this). You need to set it up on a server, then it's a web app which you could access from a phone/tablet but it involves uploading the images so it probably won't work well like that.

I would say that the skills really break down into 2 areas:

- Fundamentals that can be learned and quickly applied. This means taking an Accounting 101 and 102 course. Then applying those accounting principles to your own personal finances. They're not that different from a small business. I would also encourage you to take a couple of intro to law courses, they have been very helpful to me.

- Contextual understanding. This is the ability to take what you have learned in the fundamentals, and understand how it applies to a current set of data. This is significantly harder, and there isn't a general solution here. For example, cash flow seems like a fairly simple concept. But once you take into account enough variables, it gets very complex. Those variables are specific to one organization.

Finally, while not directly tied to your skills, I can tell you that as a founder, having an excellent accountant who I can trust to understand the minutia of all of this is super helpful. I focus on the high level and making sure that it's driving in the direction I need, he focuses on the guts. My understanding of the fundamentals means I can understand what is going on when he explains why something happened that I may not have understood initially. All of what I wrote here applies to our lawyer as well.

This reminds me of when I tried implementing AES-GCM. AES-OCB3 was fine. I just read the paper on ocb3 and it worked.

Hear hear.

This pattern of people leveraging their professional position as a platform for activism is questionable, but debatable, in general. But being entrusted to teach children requires exactly that, trust. If school systems lose the trust of parents, and eventually their larger communities, they're done.

If schools can be reasonably viewed as attempting to indoctrinate children, there will be a massive backlash. People will put up with a lot, but their children are generally off limits.

It's noted in the article that no photos or videos were taken when Facebook inadvertently showed the camera page to the user. If they weren't capturing anything, then it really was a bug.
Offline backups have been a thing for decades. Why is this not standard practice? Especially for a technology company like Garmin. It can't be about cost savings, businesses still pay for insurance and security systems. For that matter, offsite backups should also be saved in case of fires, floods, tornadoes, theft, etc...
You'd like to verify this always, but the Rust compiler is limited in that it can only verify this at compile time with proper annotations. As such, it rejects some valid programs.
The key here is "repetitive". It sounds like the repetitive exercise was the exact same cardio + weights routine every day, excluding any coordinative active, while the dance routines were explicitly varied and sound far more interactive.

I don't know enough about the underlying science to really understand the paper at a glance, but it's not surprising that learning a new skill provides beneficial effects. A neat follow up would be to look at what learning a musical instrument with a lower physical fitness requirement than dance does is relationship to a dance routine. Or even something like birding, that requires a moderate amount of walking with increased skills observing the physical environment.

I think this probably (with low confidence, because of the low N and a high dropout rate) answers the question "is dance better for neuroplasticity than walking on a treadmill and stationary bike + repetitive and uncoordinated floor exercises" with a yes, but I'll bet plenty of other activities surpass the repetitive control group as well.
RE: All children of asgeir's comment directly above this.

I think most of the disagreement in this thread comes from when is someone no longer considered a child.

According to the applicable laws, anyone under 18 is still a child, and needs to be treated as such.

Most people in the thread are arguing that 18 is to high of an age for this, while others are arguing that it is the proper age.

I personally believe that setting this age at 18 detrimentally affect those youth, who will become adults who are less individualistic and less capable. I may or may not be wrong about this. Read reificators comment for a better phrasing of this.

Those who believe that this is the proper age believe that this is protecting those youth and allowing them to grow into the adults they have potential to become. They may or may not be wrong about this.
