Yeah I'm in the same situation and I just started lying to everyone and obtaining treatment illegally, buying prescriptions online and treating myself based on what I've read instead of waiting 6 months for a 15 minute appointment with a neurologist who not even going to look at my medical history. While I'm no closer to being out of pain, I'm getting treatment at a pace and quality I find appropriate and not getting bogged down being prescribed several subtle variations of the same type of medication.

I literally had years of being prescribed different types of SSRIs for "mood" when my real problem is dystonia. My doctor, a specialist, finally revealed she's not "allowed" by the insurance company to prescribe the anti-Parkinson drugs that I can easily buy with bitcoin.

I don't I know you don't want advice, but my advice is fuck it you may not be a doctor but you only live once.
I put “identity politics” in quotes for a reason. I think believing that

a) “identity politics” is a major movement on the left, rather than a pejorative right-wing term for civil rights activism, and

b) somehow deciding you’re “against” this

is in fact right-wing. It is sort of like people who are against “critical race theory” - with a tiny handful of exceptions (mostly left-liberal quibbles), they are not making an academic argument about the actual subject of critical race theory so much as signaling their opposition that they’re opposed to anti-racist ideology. Criticizing the term “critical race theory” without having read a bunch of sociology is basically telling on yourself.
Why a "sleep disorder"? I like it that way.

No, they said people offering unsolicited advice is exhausting. Them posting in a thread about pain, along with saying they’ll read research if people have it - even “If you have research, fine, I'll read it. One day. Maybe months from now.” - says they are open to it. You have no idea if them answering would add to the discussion - quite arrogant of you. Not sure why you’re coddling. My asking questions isn't the same as offering unsolicited advice.
> Calling the other side "murderers" goes beyond "stating a legitimate political or moral view".

Can you explain your reasoning for this?

More specifically, if one only considers certain types of X to qualify as X, does calling someone X if they perform an action not universally considered to be X go beyond "a legitimate political or moral view?"

It may have been a ridiculous decision, but as a means of stopping the information from propagating, it was wholly ineffectual. There’s always enough people that want to get to the truth of the matter, rather than the version of events that has been shaped for The Narrative. Twitter lets those people easily connect with each other, so it is by far the most powerful tool for “freedom of the press” that we have.
Disengaging from social media or encouraging others to disengage on it's face appears to be the well-meaning advice of someone genuinely concerned with their own mental health and the mental health of others. For many this is precisely the correct course of action.

But, the vocal minority and ideologues aren't going to disengage. If all those who recognize illusion refuse to retain territory in the cultural and political dialog then the social media landscape would only be populated by the uninitiated and those who seek to initiate them into echo chambers. Those who have discernment enough to be frustrated by the hypocrisies and bias on social media are precisely the people who can de-escalate and bring more balance, reason and rationality to it.

The problem is then that the moderate voices are drowned out, censored, or out-right abused off the platforms (if not by actual people, but by droves of carefully coordinated bots). That leads to a larger discussion of the role of these platforms in societal discourse (or as the town square) and their woefully inadequate protections of free speech and privacy.
It’s not as simple as “the driver can take over if they need to.” In many cases it takes a human too long to recognize the system doing something dangerous and to intervene. This is going to end badly.

In my experience Apple still has the most haggle-free support experience and offers full replacements often and quite willingly, but whether you land on a no-questions-asked-replacement issue is luck-based.

A few years ago I had an iPhone whose mute switch would flip off on its own after 1.5 years of use. Went to an Apple Store in U.S. Northeast, described the issue in a sentence, handed it over, and five seconds later the bro told me I was getting a full replacement, which was in my hands three minutes later.

Then, in early 2019, my iPad Pro was having this occasional touch-not-registering issue, which to this day I’m not sure if it’s software or hardware. It also had a tiny tiny strip of dead pixels tucked in a corner, which was only noticeable when using a video player. I brought it into the Apple Store, this time somewhere in Asia, mainly for the touch issue, but casually mentioned the dead pixels since I was already there. Ended up getting a full replacement, and the lady told me it was lucky that this minor display issue was present, otherwise it would be hard to fix and basically impossible to get a replacement for that hard to reproduce and hard to diagnose touch issue.

I broadly agree that a lot of drivers would accept the risk, but there is reasonable concern for everyone outside the vehicle, which translates to a reasonable concern about regulation. And unless progress here has stalled, waiting a few more years for a safer version that doesn't have this tradeoff.

How is a subreddit about privacy not political? It might not align to the two political parties in the US, but for sure I expect there to be an echo-chamber of people that value privacy more over other rights than regular people.
Keeping informed has been always been a prerequisite of American democracy.

"wherever the people are well informed they can be trusted with their own government" Thomas Jefferson (https://www.loc.gov/exhibits/jefferson/60.html)

Engaging in the political dialogue is not wasted energy. Low level engagement on social media might be about as impactful as filling a stadium to see a politician speak during a pandemic but high level engagement is really the only way to participate in American democracy right now. If it wasn't valuable, nobody would be training bots to disrupt the process by amplifying division and hate.

Sane politicians aren't going door to door these days or standing on crowded street corners. They're interacting on social media.
Ahhh.. ok, then I apologize for the personal attack. I meant it as what you view as a failing, I view as integrity, but that's fine, I could see how you could see it as a personal attack, so I apologize.

Now, onto the 2nd point - I'd love to hear from you, in your own words, why these folks you know from Oklahoma would vote for Trump. And I don't mean the simplistic, "they're bumpkins", "they vote against their own interests", "they're all racists", I mean, in their own words, what do they say?
Getting your money back isn’t a big deal if you get the right person to help you out but with the rate at which a lot of scammers come online to rip people off, it becomes difficult to get the right person.

If the company does not return your money, you should approach your credit card company or issuing bank and fill out the paperwork for a chargeback, citing fraud, misrepresentation and breach of contract as the reasons or you can seek the assistance of a private investigator and asset recovery expert, former industry insiders said.

Humans aren't designed to monitor something that requires no action for a long time and then suddenly requires attention, nor are we good at taking over control of something at the last moment. You're not in the "flow" at that point.

The article is correct that expecting average drivers to do this without training is a high risk move. I've given flight instruction, taking over a landing 20ft off the ground is way harder than landing a plane yourself. And that's with a lot of training, not just an average driver being put in a place to supervise Tesla autopilot with no training at all.
Maybe we should do the opposite. Maybe we should all create thousands of Facebook accounts, with randomized profiles that promote random articles and AI-generated comments. Then that program runs on your machine whenever you're not using it. It would be opt-in, like SETI@Home. It could bring the whole world together in a massive community effort, with the feel-good focus of destroying-Facebook togetherness. I would call it Baseball-and-Apple-Pie@Home. Then we all sit back and enjoy the ensuing utopia of a clean, Facebook-free planet.

Is that a joke? I don't care what Harvard has to say about Ethics! Harvard!! The educators of the master administrative class. That ethically outsourced all of the jobs to the rest of the world.

It says:

Code of Ethics
As an ACM member I will ....
Contribute to society and human well-being.
Avoid harm to others.
Be honest and trustworthy.
Be fair and take action not to discriminate.
Honor property rights including copyrights and patent.
Give proper credit for intellectual property.
Respect the privacy of others.
Honor confidentiality.

Fine words! But take a look at the first - "Contribute to society and human well-being." Contribute to 'society'. 'Society' is a fiction. Its not a real thing - its an idea in people's heads. You could just as easily say contribute to stones.

People are the only thing doing the experiencing. Individuals. You can say 'society', but this just a way of avoiding talking about and to individuals.

Ethics questions are for the individual to work out. And it takes work! And the worst thing is that everyone thinks they know what they mean. That they are ethical. That its others that need the educating!

You didn't look at that link, did you? It has models using predicted costs for wind, solar, nuclear, batteries, and hydrogen storage, and computes the minimum cost system to produce reliable baseload power using real historical weather data (at 5 minute intervals). You can alter the assumptions and see what the costs optimize to. Nuclear is "Dispatchable 2" in the advanced settings.

Hate to say it but I think you’re in the minority with that opinion. Reaction from most people has been “woah”.

Also, there is no moving fast and breaking things here in real terms. Drivers are and have to pay attention while driving, and Tesla is strictly monitoring this with beta. You also specifically have to opt-in to beta software. 99% of Tesla owners do not have this functionality.
I think part of it may be that, if he's the (good kind of) hustler his friends state he is, he probably did a million things over that decade period which is really hard to translate into a narrative acceptable for an article like this. I'm in no way equating our situations other than I have ~10 year "consulting" period on my resume that includes probably 20-30 contracts, projects, a few jobs, etc. and it's really hard to break it down into a simple timeline to answer "what did you do from ...". That's my take.

A few things...

First, there were no "Armenain vilayets" in the Ottoman Empire. It was a term people in Europe and USA used to define the six vilayets where there were the most Armenians. It was not an official designation.

Second, Nagorno-Karabakh was not one of the "Armenian vilayets" because it wasn't part of the Ottoman Empire. It was part of the Russian Empire.

Finally, Armenians predate Azeris (and Turks) in all the areas we are speaking about and were the majority in many of them up until the Armenian Genocide. In a few, they are still the majority to this day. Nagorno-Karabakh is one of those.

Mandatory retirement means that you're prohibiting people from working. It's such an infringement on personal liberty that it's politically laughable to propose it. Keep in mind that most politicians are over the 50 year age limit themselves. It's just impossible to realistically implement.

That's on top of the massively increased cost of the newly retired people, mental health crisis from being prohibited to work for the last 25-40 years of your life, getting rid of the layer of the workforce with most experience and expertise. It's absurdly dumb.
This was the guy in the red leather fetish suit from Zardoz right?
> in real life I will not accept being called a murderer.

What do you mean by not accepting it? You're welcome to disagree with the classification, of course. That's how we start a hearty discussion on values, morals, politics, etc.

In real life, I would also hope that I use a more tactful strategy that doesn't immediately fall back on a term that will polarize my interlocutor.
Cool! How does this compare with polynote and Gigantum?
Why? A false positive it’s actually not that big of a deal. You spend a day being really cautious and you get another test to confirm, and then it turns out that you didn’t actually have Covid and you feel amazingly relieved.

It’s a false negative they really need to worry about. Then you have people who are going around super spreading but telling everyone that it’s fine because they tested negative.
That’s one of those things like flavors (ex. coriander) or smells (certain flowers, wet dogs). For some people they are “ambient” for others they are overwhelming. It’s obviously not on him but on me, but at the same time I find it hard to listen past it.
This is exactly why regulations such as professional engineering licenses were put into place. You don’t want someone with that mentality building a bridge.
In case of Django, I actually don’t feel much difference in this regard—it’s always been very much batteries included. It is natural for a project to have no dependencies but Django (and maybe psycopg2 bindings), business domain-specific dependencies excluded. Happily used it since before the first major release.

VST does not deal in 12TET. VST2 delivers MIDI data to a plugin, which most plugins (not all) will interpret in 12TET. But the plugin may offer its own mechanism to change the mapping between MIDI note numbers and frequencies, or it might use the MIDI Tuning Standard to do so.

The only role for a DAW in this comes if the DAW labels MIDI data with note names. If you're not using 12TET, these labels will likely be wrong. But since MIDI itself doesn't inherently use 12TET, just 128 notes numbered from 0 to 127, any DAW can still be used to work in non-12TET tunings and scales.

The fact that social media sites are a valuable manipulation target to certain people doesn't make them valuable to you as a consumer. To the contrary.
Years ago, I tried learning how to use threads by following tutorials similar to this one, where you are taught how to implement threads from {python, java, c++}. However, it wasn't until I studied operating systems (when I returned to graduate school for computer science) was I able to wrap my mind around threads — from a language agnostic view point, how and what lightweight processes are, how to implement locks and synchronization barriers — and how they help facilitate concurrency.
Thanks for the suggestion. Will do that next time :) .

What will it take to stop them? I believe it's a settled matter that their self driving is fundamentally flawed due to relying on ML and cameras instead of lidar. Will it take people dying for the government to step in? Lawsuits? I don't think our politicians are well versed enough in how this works and the level of risk letting this kind of thing happen.

> Like it or not, people were literally burning their neighbors alive in Cyprus and entire west was watching. They've been in peace for 40 years now because of Turkish intervention. Cyprus war ended 46 years ago.

"in peace" about as much as the Korean peninsula is at peace. Turkey is illegally occupying Northern Cyprus, and that's it. It's not at war with the actual Cyprus, but you can't pretend everything is even remotely fine.

Turks were brutally removed from most of the lands they brutally installed and settled themselves on. Population exchanges like after the Greco-Turkish war should have been done with all neighbors to avoid such nastiness in the future.

On the other hand, one way or another the entire Democratic operation with all of its spending couldn’t secure those additional votes (closer to 600) in Florida and they didn’t bother challenging voter suppression efforts, basically rolling their eyes at those sounding the alarm. It’s also possible that the early call of Florida swung the election too close by encouraging last minute voters to stay home in the panhandle, and it really was a stronger Bush victory. Also, if they could have prevented so much vote spoiling through the confusing ballots and malfunctioning “machines” or marking devices, which was in the Democrats court as the vote supervisors in the counties they control; Gore would have won. But, sure, it’s a good look for the Democratic party to suppress democracy.
Indoctrination is real when it comes to medical professions, there are major pitfalls with the current system including regulatory capture by for-profit interests, e.g. the medical industrial-institutional complex.

I've learned the vast majority of what I've needed to heal not through the mainstream medical system - and more often than not there's disbelief, skepticism, or false narratives they react with simply because they didn't learn it through their narrow specialized path, being selected primarily for their memorization skills and not critical thinking and reasoning skills.

Yep. The piracy age is definitely resurfacing.
First - it's not 'speculative' - we know what 'monopolies' are, and if a Guild or Union has a monopoly over a chunk of the economy, we understand at least some of the implications.

Second - in this case, it's obvious that Unions are not 'about a decent wage' - rather '2-3x' the market wage for a given job.

Is it going to work out if the guy at the 7/11 is getting paid $100K as well?

Third - this isn't about 'Unions' (it never is) it's about power. I actually support most unions wherein they are trying to form, usually there's good reason for a union when it's trying to come into formation - but when Unions have more power over time, they are literally the 'owning and controlling entity that can extract most of the wealth' in a system.

With respect to Electricity and other public utilities - these Guilds/Unions are actually the most powerful artifact in the equation, and to contemplate 'how to improve the system' without dealing with this issue is not going to work.

The 'carrier cost' is now the primary charge on most electricity bills, i.e. you're paying for the transport fees as much as the the power itself - those charges will increase to offset any of the gains in cheaper electricity. Electricity could drop to 6 cents a Kw/h tommorow but the carrier fees will rise considerably - why? Because they can do that - it's a function of the 'market power' of the Guild.

One of the interesting and not of talked about revolutions which may be on the horizon is the possibility of a 'gridless' future for electricity - or rather - considerable less dependency on grids.

Certainly with Hydrogen as a fuel source, or even less dependency on 'local grids' whereby you can talk your 'Household batteries' to a charging station every so often as opposed to having lines right to the house.

This might make for a more efficient system which incentivizes truly competitive pricing on electricity and moves a monopolizing entity towards having less power.

The gird is a 'single point of access' and it's therefore a very potent means for entities to extract all sorts of wealth wether it's private, public, Unions etc. so we should seek to avoid those dynamics.
