Somehow I don't think physical laborers ever complain when they get new and more powerful tools to make their job easier.

It's only software engineers that bemoan their lives getting easier, so they can spend more time working on other problems higher up the abstraction chain.
I didn't know that about Starlink. That's cool :)

The Oneweb stuff not so much, but at least they're thinking about it.
The first time this went around in 2007, watching it made me feel like an alien. Everybody seemed to find it so inspiring, but I just found it kind of sad. The whole thing about being a Disney engineer seemed like such a manufactured dream. I don't want to criticize someone who died too young, but it just all seems so empty to me. I don't understand why a tenured professor who has all the freedom in the world would choose to go out of his way to work for such an evil corporation. It's kind of funny that Disney ended up being the embodiment of all the villains in their movies.
Probably the control should be some other psychoactive substance that also has some noticeable hallucinogenic effect, but is not believed to have curative properties.

The other way (which is close to what they have done) is to compare and contrast the therapeutic effects of different dosages - if the patient feels the expected sideeffects in both cases, but the normal dose achieves measurably better results than a minimally low dose, then that's some evidence about the effectiveness of the active ingredient.

DX12 and Vulkan are realistically, too low-level for ordinary applications to use - but engines like Unity and UE4 get to implement native multigpu without having to adversarially hack around driver multigpu behavior. Sure it has to be done in the application, but overall it will result in better outcomes for AAA titles.

For other apps using higher-level OpenGL/DX11 the existing multigpu drivers are still available - for now - but NVIDIA just want you to buy a single faster 3xxx-series card, that will almost certainly outperform implicit multigpu on an older card. They aren't updating SLI profiles after January, and aren't supporting them at all on the 3xxx series cards.
> Anyway, in my opinion, what people do to themselves or other unforced, uncompelled, consenting, sentient and intelligent creatures without creating immediate dangers for non-participants shouldn't be anybody's business.

To argue the other side of that, there are some behaviors that are destructive to society as a whole. Everyone can easily picture why drug abuse or alcohol abuse is bad for society. There are subtler things too though. For example divorce is bad for society because single parenthood is hard and those children grow up with a disadvantage. That doesn't mean the state has the right to interfere, but it might mean having more requirements for marriage or a public contraceptive policy is a good idea.

In this particular case these (presumably men) would be out of the dating pool and would be less likely to have children. I don't see an awful lot wrong with that. They're mostly the low status men that were functionally out of the dating pool anyway.

Or maybe the sex robots are so good, people stop marrying and having children to such an extent that the population collapses, the economy shrinks, and human population drops until it reaches some new, lower equilibrium. Given how we destroy our planet, it's hard to get upset at that outcome.

More likely some cultures would do that, and others (e.g. Mormons?) Don't and then the breeding culture eventually replaces the non breeding culture. Unless you're part of that group, it doesn't seem like an improvement. But it is very much the way of nature. Which we're still a part of no matter how smart we think we are.

> If depression really is a "software" rather than a "hardware" issue that makes it much harder to solve right?

I bet you have the 3 scenarios:

- "hardware" only

- "software" only

- both
Really sick of these "drugs feel good" stories. If we were still behaviorists, we wouldn't pretend this was news. This is declaring a full remission of depression after four weeks in half of the subjects. This is pretend science, I absolutely guarantee that an all expenses paid weeklong camping trip (or trip to Paris for those afraid of bugs, or trip to Japan for those sick of Paris) would do the same thing.

Asking depressed people whether they're depressed in four weeks during which they've had two good, safe, legal drug sessions, and considering it meaningful, is moronic.

edit: I've been reading lately about saying things directly. Of course drugs feel good, that's why people do them.
I use to create a fair amount of useful imagemaps using netobjects fusion back in the day.

It's been a while since I've looked into this - and now wondering how / if this can translate into any issues if images are responsive and change sizing?

I think the last image map I did I just used an image that would not scale, but now I may need to go double check that on mobile.
The second paragraph of the article:

The move against Iranian hackers working for the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps came shortly after they launched an operation two weeks ago posing as a far-right group to send threatening emails to American voters and also posted a video aimed at driving down confidence in the voting process

Many people only read the headlines and assume that psilocybin is treating depression. The reality is that these studies psilocybin as an adjunct to 11 hours of traditional therapy.

These studies aren't showing that psilocybin is a promising treatment for depression. They're showing that psilocybin-assisted therapy is a promising treatment for depression.
“It tastes like meat” is a good argument when combined with “it’s cheaper than meat.” It falls flat when it’s more expensive than meat.
I think that it’s a combination of well placed money and good policy. If drug use gives someone a felony conviction, it doesn’t matter how many times you send them to rehab, they’re not going to be able to hold down a job because almost no one hires people with records.

Without the element of criminalization, tools like rehab provide a way more effective path to being a functional member of society. Obviously it’s not a silver bullet, but it does make sense as a strategy.

So if a satellite stops responding to commands, they're going to go get it? To make sure it doesn't hit anything else and cause more problems?

I do not acknowledge the authority of the legal system of the United States of America over my own beliefs and statements. However, if I did, I'd just call to your attention the fact he was sentenced partly based on this the transgression I named, even if he was not charged with it. That would be enough for me to drop the "alleged" verbiage, were I inclined to put it there in the first place.
The study used psilocybin as an adjunct to 11 hours of professional therapy.

This study is not the same as taking psilocybin or other psychedelic drugs in an ad-hoc manner.
They are not that expensive anymore. You can buy a Brother HL-L3210CW for $199, or you can get a second hand printer (I paid $5 for a Fuji Xerox CM205fw).
Right, that's the exact model you should look for, InReach is the term they use to describe their whole sat-messaging line.

By the way, they also have an API you can hook into.
I once was toying with the idea of implementing a compact language to help me with resupplying between towns:
Lets say that my flashlight breaks or my mattress gets a hole that I cannot fix, I could have a list of all my items (it's rather short - for example here is my '19 HRP thruhike gear list: https://lighterpack.com/r/rbjo9d).
For every item I can maintain let's say an amazon product page (with some price bound probably), as well as the list of towns I'll be visiting.

A single text message that says "ORDER 1 flashlight to Bridgeport" could trigger an order to the General Delivery address which I already have in my Amazon account.

This could even work as a service that possibly pays itself using just Amazon's referral fees.

I never got to actually testing their API since you have to manually apply to their business plan which cost significantly more than the regular plan.
But it could really be useful and save you a lot of time and money while thruhiking, when you really need to get a replacement item while out there between towns with no signal and your next town only has a general store.

And yes, Otter's story is so crazy, sad and depressing. Being there so long and slowly realizing that there is no way out feels so difficult to process.
I can easily see how it could have been adapted to a film.

So like, if the mailman refuses to deliver mail, it’s fascism if I personally deliver my letters and those of my neighbors if they want me to?

Edit: To be clear, the example of Uber was used as someone usurping, which doesn’t exactly accord with how I think about usurpation. To usurp to me is to claim the moral authority of the government. But in this sense, it seems to be used to describe providing services that could be provided by the government. Usurpation in the sense of claiming to be the government is bad. Usurpation in the sense of providing services the government won’t is good.
Yeah, while I 100% support such laws, they are pretty dangerous to implement state-wide vs country-wide. If this attracts problematic drug users to Oregon, people will point at it as an example of why it doesn't work. But it's likely that it will since it is easy to move states.

You typically have to exceed the foreign earned income exclusion (adjusted annually for inflation: $103,900 for 2018, $105,900 for 2019, and $107,600 for 2020) [1] (for taxes you pay to your country of residency) before you owe US federal income tax while living overseas. If you have seriously delinquent tax debt [2], the IRS can request the State Department prevent the renewal and/or revoke your passport (which, in many cases, will terminate your visa or prevent renewal in the foreign country you reside, as your passport is no longer in good standing; you will be granted a limited passport for return to the US by the State Department if this occurs [3]).

This study wasn't just about psilocybin. The patients received 11 hours of professional therapy. The psilocybin was used as an adjunct.

The theory is that psilocybin increases suggestibility and openness to new ideas, making the therapy easier to integrate.

Note that increasing suggestibility isn't a universally positive trait, especially for people doing ad-hoc dosing alone without therapy. In fact, it's uncommon to hear "bad trip" stories where people end up in prolonged depressive or anxious episodes following a trip.

There is no evidence here that taking psychedelics without therapy is positive for patients, so it's extremely unlikely that dosing someone who is sedated or in a coma would have any effect.
It is not so typical of me to refer professionals online but I feel like I owe a lot to leonard the certifed hacker who helped me track my cheating fiance when he was having an affair, I got to find out that he has been lying to me for the past 5 months and seeing two other women. I was able to get direct access to his text messages, phone conversations and all social media accounts on his phone: what was most amazing was that his recently deleted messages were retrieved by James.

As someone who used to be diagnosed with clinical depression and eventually got over it with a combination of therapy and sheer determination ...

... eh, being with people is the most reliable way to trigger a depressive episode. It makes me realize how much of traditional "This will make you happy" advice just doesn't click with me. Groups of friends make me feel lonely and disconnected.

I feel my best when I'm on my own. Or with 1 or 2 very close friends for short periods followed by lots of recovery time.
Quick note that depression isn't simply "I'm unhappy" (existence of a negative feeling). Depression is characterized by many/all feelings being severely diminished or completely absent. People who think everything's going right in their life still get depressed, and it's something of a trope for some depressed people to wonder how they can be depressed when they can't point to anything in their life that should be depressing.
New device designed to restore brain functions – via the tongue
This is exactly what I was struggling with over the weekend in a side project. My "vec" is lines from a file read from the filesystem, but my real goal is for it to be lines in the request body from an HTTP POST. As a Rust beginner, I get to go through these exact steps all over again but with tokio-flavored error messages instead, and its at least 2x more complicated. Like you said, its "extremely hard for [me] to realize [what it is I] should be doing."
The reason you cannot have a double blind study is that you can tell you've been given mushrooms. So, I expect, can the therapist and the researcher etc.

The moment anyone knows it's no longer double blind.

I'm happy to be corrected if there is some clever way around this. I have heard people suggest you give "control" group members so other psychoactive substance (MDMA was suggested). But that doesn't have the same effect as mushrooms. And also, it's ethically merky to give people other drugs they're not expecting/consenting to. Plus then you don't really have a control group, you have Mushrooms vs Other Drugs...
Am I alone in thinking that $6000 would, if you had the discretion, to be better spent on Patreon/commissions?

Because more plenty of folks it's less the mechanics of the pleasure and more a fantasy expertly written, illustrated, or filmed that gets the motor running.

You don't need placebo. That's a common misconception.

They could have used an active control group that received traditional antidepressants.

This study wasn't actually about psilocybin, it was about psilocybin-assisted therapy. So they could have simply had one group receive only therapy and the other group receive therapy plus psilocybin.
Hey that's your opinion, apparently that's just fine.

Did I say embedded LISP or APL? No, I didn't.

I did suggest that C could have learned a thing or two from them. A higher semantic level does not imply reduced performance. In many cases, a richer language can give the compiler more opportunities to optimize. Walter Bright's D is a good example of a slightly-higher semantic level that still generates speedy binaries.

And a slow Pascal of yesteryear doesn't exactly put the nail in the coffin. C has also had its share of lame compilers.

He wanted to create something that brought joy to children. As "evil" as Disney may or may not be, being an Imagineer and getting to use your technical skills to bring enjoyment to kids is something he felt very passionately about. Being a tenured professor doesn't give you the same outreach as working for Disney does when building an amusement park ride.

> no actual content

Indeed, the criticism is not of the facts but of the logic. My critique is primarily of your rhetoric. You requested a citation without offering a rebuttal. Yet, you you made a claim that appears to be equally well-founded, or as you're implying, un-founded.

Saying "citation needed" is a somewhat bland, passive-aggressive statement that itself lacks content. I'd have (and still would) appreciate reading the rationale for your skepticism.
The GPU is usually an important part to upgrade to get old desktop hardware on with the times. Not because of games, but because having modern or many Displayport/HDMI connections is nice, and modern hardware video codecs can offload a lot of heavy duty number crunching work from your CPU [1].

Any Sandy Bridge to 1st gen Skylake desktop does not have these connections or codecs and could often really benefit from a decent $50-$80 add on GPU. Desktop Sandy Bridge can still make for a very decent computer if you can keep upgrade costs in check. An Intel Xe would also be a decent upgrade if you now already depend on some crappy older Nvidia or AMD GPU.

[1]: Besides your basic h264/hevc/vp9 decoding, it seems Intel Xe has AV1 hardware video decoding, which you can otherwise only get in the very expensive/hard to get/power hungry AMD and Nvidia discrete GPUs (to be) released this month.

That was my point. Humans celebrate themselves for possessing the ability to reason, think, or have values. But judging other species by this standard is a preposterous notion. Just as a dolphin judging humans inferior for our limited ability to catch fish in our mouths via echolocation.

But if one can't judge species according to their own natural abilities we can still judge them according to their interactions with other species. This is where humans, come out looking poor. Mink do not negatively impact humans, and would have essentially no interaction with humans, but humans willfully imprison and brutalize millions of mink for frivolous pleasures.
It's true that depthwise convolutions are bandwidth bound, but most networks that use them in combination with a kernel size 1 "convolution". If those two operations are tiled and fused together, the result is often compute bound again. This is usually not the case in most ML frameworks and libraries though, including CuDNN.

I beg to differ on your second point - at my company we've fully embraced AWS and putting vendor lock-in issues aside, the end result is focusing more on the application and less on the minutiae of operational issues which is a big win. This makes things much more interesting since you can get there faster and consequently take on more impactful projects in the same timeframe. This in general is a boon for developers in my experience.
