> Human beings aren’t designed to function without access to emotion, so we sociopaths often become destructive in order to feel things. I used to break into houses or steal cars for the adrenaline rush of knowing I was somewhere I wasn’t allowed to be — just to feel, period.

There's a common distinction between psychopaths and sociopaths that suggests the latter is (usually, but probably not in this case) considered less intelligent primarily because they lack the forbearance to hide their condition. I personally think any sensible person afflicted with this disposition should keep it to themselves, knowing very well that public admission to anti-social behavior is not in their best interest as a person.

Then again if narcissism is at play one might feel compelled to revel in the attention that begets the glorification of sociopaths by the media. The news is pretty irrational nowadays, so I understand why the notion that dissocial individuals are somehow victims is gaining traction. Having to read about someone who has a PhD in psychology making these statements is pretty uncomfortable, but nonetheless admissible once the absurdity of our reality is embraced.

I wish her and her family the best but, for their own sake, I wish she hadn't published this article. If I ever hear of someone admitting to being diagnosed with this personality disorder I would do everything in my power to disassociate myself from them -- which I believe to be a rational decision when self-preservation is the goal. I can already imagine the parents of her poor child's friends whispering into their children's ears to "avoid that family at any cost from now on".
Politicians tend to debate below the skill level of high school county-level competition, and students do also practice both clean and dirty debate, but: students never truly punch with force either.

Students don't know what it means to be attacked as a father for having a son with drug addiction problems. Students don't know what it means to be humiliated for how little taxes or how much debt they have.
I was an early employee at start-up where the co-founder relationship was 50/50 and looked very much like this. They did their best as time progressed to keep tensions behind closed doors, but the company was small and it became clear that while co-founder "A" was giving lip service and was completely disengaged, co-founder "B" was getting things done and providing effective and actionable feedback.

It was clear that "B" was doing both of their jobs and was burning/burnt out. That is simply not maintainable.

In the end the company was acquired, allowing them to go their separate ways. "B" and I have remained friends and I could almost hear his voice as I read this article! I look forward to seeing what he does with those hard earned lessons applied to his next company.
The thing to keep in mind re: oil in particular is that a stable oil price is indicative of increases in supply to match the more or less continuous increase in demand over most of that period.

The big dislocations you cite obscure the fact that demand rose for most of the period, demand was rising. So another way to read the chart is that demand-weighted prices declined most of the time, with occasional spikes. Either way, you can see in the charts the increased supply effect of e.g. fracking being deployed widely in the price response.

One could also look back to 2008 to see the impact of increased supply on pricing of e.g. real estate.
The labels aide communication. Seems mildly obvious.
This might be a misunderstanding... they would be fine in 99% of the cases where containers are currently used, not where packages are currently used.
At least personally (as someone driving openpilot pretty regularly) I'm a lot happier to trust openpilot than the stock system in my car since openpilot watches the driver and nags you (and eventually disengages) if you don't pay attention to the road. With the stock system I have to trust myself more.
It’s not about supply and demand - that makes no sense. That only makes sense if the company’s alternative is to hire a new employee at the Kansas City wage rate - but that option was never on the table. The choice is between retaining an existing employee that you’ve been happy to pay a current NYC wage.

If you could have hired a Kansas City employee to do the same job for less pay, that would have already been reflected in the previous salary negotiations when you instead decided it was worth it to pay more to hire the NYC person.

That person choosing to live in a different location has no effect on anything - everything that led you to the original choice to pay them a higher wage remains true.
My personal experience with MDMA is that it makes you feel empathetic, not that it actually makes you more empathetic. It helps you feel good about yourself and others, and so long as you're doing so with trustworthy people with similar goals - It's basically the same thing. My roommate's boyfriend did MDMA while I was in the house, and they were convinced that they knew me and had a deep personal connection with me from that point forward.

It was not true at all, and ended very badly (he drugged me, and that's all that I know for sure).
It's not so much the tech but yes, having to ship an entire browser for each app... This isn't sustainable, as many cheap devices today are sold with only 64/128 GB SSD...

One alternative is PWA but no interaction with the OS since sandboxed and of course, different platforms == different browsers which more or less support for PWA, so not fit for a Git desktop client for instance.
> This is structurally extremely isomorphic to SC or Chuck etc.,

Negatory. A sound program in wasgen (i.e. the thing you pass to the "play" function) is a static object; comparable programs in SC/Chuck are code. They are as different as JSON and JS. As such, porting SC/Chuck to the browser would mean building a compiler/transpiler/VM/etc.

For me between 2000-2005 F1 was fun to watch though after 2005 there were too many regulations and all the cars were too similar. If you want to see some overtaking and drama those were some great races.
So people who are born with a sexual desire to hurt small children, not rape but actually torture and mutilate as seen in the “hurt core” community, should be allowed to roam freely? Your opinion is an artifact of convention. How dull...

Of course people who were friends with Ted Bundy were surprised! Do you think they would be his friends otherwise? For every friend there were two people who weren’t surprised I can promise you. And yes some sociopaths are geniuses but that’s not relevant to my point at all. Most sociopaths are not able to play a rol perfectly forever. Ted bundy is a perfect example of that.

I once had the pleasure of encountering a sociopath in a social setting. He was charming and I was the only one who knew, and I knew instantly, everyone else loved him. And sure enough it was only a matter of time before the others came around one by one. If you know what to look for they are easy to spot. Extremely easy. The difference in autonomic responses alone is almost impossible to conceal.
When you say that flight risk isn't a real concern, something like 25% of people on bail fail to appear. Ultimately it often falls to bounty hunters to go find them.

I agree that holding someone without a conviction looks like a violation of the presumption of innocence. This is why the right to a speedy trial is in the constitution, to minimize this violation. Unfortunately that right is somewhat theoretical. Depending on the crime, people spend on average between 50 and 200 days in jail before trial. This is way too long and we should really figure out how to streamline these processes for the cases where someone really does need to be held for trial.
Is the idiom "behind the 8 ball" common in the USA? I'm not sure I'd heard it before Biden used it to refer to the disadvantages black people face when trying to get a loan, etc. I'm not sure billiards/pool is popular enough (especially for young people) for someone to quickly deduce the meaning. I found it to be a strange term and wondered if it was just a dated term. Would anyone in K-12 understand it?

This happened to me, but I've never thought of myself as sociopathic. Rather, I grew up in a situation that required me to repress my feelings, and MDMA was a gateway to breaking down the giant wall I had, unknowingly, built up.
>is the additional supply causes prices to drop by some amount, which attracts new residents attracted by the drop in prices until the housing costs almost as much as it did before

This is a description of supply and demand, not some kind of trump card against it. Notice that more people are getting their preferences satisfied. That's the point.

As someone who sees covid patients regularly, my anecdata seems to suggest that the remdesivir 5day/dexamethasone 10day combo really does help get these patients out of the hospital. There's just so many things that can go wrong while you're in the hospital, if there's a safe way to get you out earlier, we'll take it.

If you were diagnosed it means some measurement was used. These labels are useful granted they’re correctly applied, to first of all understand oneself, attempt to improve the condition and blend in with the rest of the world without causing suffering/pain in others.

My post was intended to imply that Twitter's reaction seemed out of proportion, which can sometimes imply they reacted that way because they feared it may be accurate information. Game theoretically, regardless of their intention it was a bad play because of the Streisand effect.
F1 is an extremely difficult position these days. How can a team(s) increase lap speed YoY, have competitive racing, make money, stay safe, and still have incentives for OEMs to participate? The answer is they can't. At least in the current formula. I think Bernie did a great job running the sport as a dictator, but he set up a house of cards that was doomed. I don't think Chase Carey and Liberty really had a chance. Also, the talent pool has become increasingly level. With the advances in simulator technology and aero dominating the sport, I think the driver / pilot has much less factor. I don't think there is really any room to argue. Kimi is still out in Q1, and the Mercs are 1 2. There will always be different eras and arguments as to who is good, blah blah. But the fact is driver salaries are going down, and the margin between the drivers is shrinking. This isn't 2003 where Schumacher and Ferrari would run 3000 miles of testing every other week.

Let's be honest; it's about the car. There is a reason Adrian Newey has won titles with 3 teams. There is a reason MClaren is going back to Mercedes. There is a reason why Toro Rosso only wins in the wet. There is a reason driver salaries are down. There is a reason we have 18 year old drivers.

I think the only way to go back to exciting racing is bringing back more variables. Less Tilke / new age tracks (more track diversity), refueling / more tire manufacturers and the like, go back to the old school points system, and get rid of these crazy stewards that are killing races like the one Vetell had in Canada. Have a technical regulations package that has a diminishing return past a certain amount of $ spent. Make it more about mechanical grip and less about aero.

I remember listening to a beyond the grid podcast with Juan Pablo Montoya. The host kept trying to pull the whole "what was it like to race with Michael" ooze fest. Juan simply stated he was in the best car, and when he was at Mercedes he didn't do that well. All the drivers on the grid are good. All of them. The difference between the champions is some skill and a lot of luck, and managers making the right moves.

Don't get me wrong; it takes skill. But (especially today) to say that drivers are not second place to the cars is somewhat ignorant. The only pair of teammates on the grid right now who have any legitimate gap are Albon and Verstappen. Other than that, it's par for the course.
It's been a while since I started using vim. I can see some similarities. Though, I didn't really do much configuration in the early days. Currently, I have pretty much no configs when it comes to key maps or some custom or shortcuts. I only add plugins for code completion and highlighting. Nothing else.

The politicians have access to much better data than they used to. Given Biden showed a similar drop in grade level, I suspect what this is secretly revealing is that most voters didn't understand what politicians were talking about for most of the USs history.

Without exactly joking, or exactly being serious, democracy isn't about voters understanding the real issues. Just the person capable of figuring out how to get the voters on side is also canny enough to make good decisions when they get to the real issues. Most people neither know nor care. The debates are moving in the direction of that world - theatre to judge how well politicians do theatre, and that is the proxy of their actual ability. It isn't possible to catch up on what matters about someone in 3 political debates.
Going by their news releases page, it doesn't seem like even 2020 has more listings than most years:

https://www.who.int/news

I'm now leaning more toward my hypothesis that they haven't changed behavior much, but US reporters are citing them now because the current administration brought them into the story. In the past, reporters probably read the WHO announcements but quoted from CDC same academic experts. Again, WHO info is dry.

I think you and I are in agreement, my point was that our job is about being aware of where those bonds could exist, and where concern is warranted.

The exact location of the line depends on the individuals and the relationship i'd imagine.

Mine is pretty far back. I wear my heart on my sleeve (is that the right usage of that term?) and form bonds quite easily. Yet, i'm intensely devoted for various reasons - so i keep the opposite gender at a respectable distance.

One major differentiator for openpilot is the active driver monitoring. If you keep checking your phone while it's activated it will disengage and eventually even refuse to engage. Other systems just make you nudge the wheel, but openpilot uses the front facing camera to watch your eyes.
This is where I also stand. I don't (a prior) trust the WHO, I don't (a priori) trust the CDC, I don't (a priori) trust the talk show hosts. (To be fair, I think this principle applies much more generally than public health matters.)

That's not to say I behave irresponsibly: I wear a mask in public (because "better safe than sorry"), my family self-quarantined for two weeks when one of us got sick, etc. I just don't assume what "experts" say is necessarily the truth. (To be fair, I also don't trust myself to reach correct conclusions—hence my personal policy of "better safe than sorry.")

I personally feel like too much of modern society involves idolizing experts and institutions—after all, it's nothing more than the argument-to-authority logical fallacy (admittedly, even if it's often a useful heuristic)... but that's a discussion for another time :-P

I dislike flushing my ear with a syringe or squeeze bulb as it is uncomfortably loud and it seems possible to damage the eardrum with overpressure. It is also difficult to tell if it is working or how long you should continue doing it to ensure a clean ear, especially if the ear is not completely blocked.

The endoscope is faster, easier, more comfortable, and lets you see exactly how clean your ear is so there's no guesswork.
I wonder how different these comments would be if the author had used the term "antisocial personality disorder" instead of "sociopath."

If it was up to me, I would create a race where the only limits were:

1) Combustion or electric engines only, no jets or rocket boosters
2) Should fit within a box of certain height-width-depth
3) No human drivers, only remote or AI
4) No type of weapons, or ramming, etc. Only pure speed.

I think that would have been an interesting race to watch.
I don't really see how a debate being easier to parse is necessarily a bad thing. While it could suggest that the candidates are less intelligent or that the populace is less intelligent, it could also suggest that the candidates are attempting to reach more people or that the use of words with less syllables has become more common in the english language over time.
Either you love C++ or you hate it. To tell the truth, i am also of the opinion that C++ is fucking crazy complicated. There are youtube videos from leading experts, explaining the usage of simple language elements at length, something like that is unheard of in modern languages. E.g. you are not expected to grasp overload resolution to the fullest extent: https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/overload_resoluti...

I find Amazon reviews fairly useless these days. Most good ratings are just because of fake or paid reviewers or other scams like switching the product while keeping the reviews, combining two products in one listing, and probably others I don't know about. Amazon seems powerless to fix it, or maybe they just don't think they need to care.

I haven't tried any of the phone based endoscopes but I expect the latency and reliability to be bad. When I'm controlling something that's deep in my ear canal I don't want latency or dropped frames.
It sounds like you're saying the difference between psychopaths and sociopaths is that the former hides their condition while the latter doesn't?

Am I understanding you correctly? Because if so, this isn't a definition I've heard of. Can you tell me where it's from?
They don’t.

They forked the code base around 5 years ago now. Cloud/on prem.

Cloud is or was multi tenanted, you didn’t get your own isolated server, you got routed to some compute that would then pull data at request time based on your tenant id.

With a hard fork of two seperate product streams it was inevitable at some point maintaining feature parity between products would get to much.

Java and cloud go together quite nicely. Backend services, a JVM that has now be tuned for many many years by lots of clever people. If you have a long lived service it works really well. It works better than your node js app running a single instance on a multi core server with the event loop getting blocked.

Apple is probably not going to help for this, sadly. I am fairly sure the details of tethering are considered to be private API and when something like that breaks (having likely been created by reverse engineering originally) they just don’t care. That being said, perhaps you’ll get some support from some skills do reverse engineers to help update that code!
Needs a 2019 tag. The title is also leaving out some very important details, namely that the source forged a police report to give to the journalist. The evidence IMO points to Peshivar being the target of a deliberate smear campaign.

TBH the fact that this is upvoted here with this misleading title makes this submission very suspect IMO. The Wikipedia article on Shervin Peshivar has more details.
Clearly!
I thought the same thing and most certainly slow way the heck down while trying to figure out what the heck I just saw. I'd probably presume it was some sort of programmable temporary signage on the fritz and treat it like a traffic light with the lights out.
It does not. Have to use chat for work, and it most definitely does not support anything outside of a browser.
Why do people use the USB tether? The WiFi hotspot always works perfectly, it's an open protocol etc.
