I found atomoxetine only mildly useful and the side effects (slight increase in blood pressure) to bother me enough to stop using it.

However, I want to mention modafinil (particularly as no-one else has mentioned it in this discussion). It has worked for me and there is evidence to its effectiveness as a non-stimulant medication for ADHD - https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11191692/ - although it's technically an off-label use.
I remember when us Linux desktop folks would run Windows Media Player 6.4 under Wine because it had the best support for all the codecs out there. (Especially all the DivX movies and TV shows out there.)

Also in the early 2000's it was super fashionable for EVERY Linux app to have a needless server/client model. VLC is quite the prime example of this.
I understood that to mean, if you've goals within you app (e.g. CityMapper — completing a journey; Dropbox — uploading a file; some game — beating a level), ask after the user has completed them, rather than what apps used to do (e.g. before you've been created an account, or getting in your way while you're changing some setting). But when they _do_ ask theyre meant to show the rating dialog either way, not first check what rating you would give.
No kidding. I don't even mix it with caffeine because it makes me feel terrible. Alcohol is tolerable, but I still try to avoid mixing stuff. Luckily most of it's out of my system by the evenings anyways.
I got hit by this yesterday. I run a postfix server with a spamcop check and email stopped coming through. I had fail2ban setup to shut out bad SMTP requests and interestingly this spamcop issue made fail2ban completely ban the incoming SMTP requests.

Thankfully I figured that part of it out, but it is nice to see where the issue actually came from.

Dreams is a company on a mission to help people feel good about money. We offer an innovative and effective savings and investments product, grounded in behavioral science. Historically a strong B2C company and brand, we are hugely excited to this year be launching our enterprise offering, going into the B2B2C space.

We're are looking for the right product focused, full-stack developer to join our team of ~25 engineers. The vacancy is full-time/permanent and means you would join one of our cross-functional product teams working in a specific problem space.

Poor Niagara :). The Niagara design though was clearly intended for web serving/databases and Sun didn't go try selling it into the LINPACK/supercomputing segment. That's the disconnect for me.

To be clear, if you had a multi-hundred processor system sitting around (as we kind of did, thanks SGI!), you used it. But... you probably shouldn't have purchased it.
The good reason to get rid of it automatically: It takes up space.

Is there any good reason to keep it? (The fact that it was "created by some user" doesn't seem like much of a reason.)

IMHO, creating an index should be atomic: Either you end up with a valid index, or you end up with nothing.
I use it to convert . VOB files to .MP4 format.
Everyone knew this was a bad idea, and the truly curious thing is, how does anyone who greenlit this on any level still have a job?

Stadia had a narrow set of interesting use cases around features deeply integrated with Google products: Zero of them were ready for launch, and I think all but one are still unavailable today.

The value for gamers is debateable at best, but exclusive titles would be the only serious way to draw a bunch of people to Stadia outside of that... and if Google is unable to make the business justification to develop Stadia exclusives, neither will anyone else.
Data in those contexts nearly always have "reciprocial actions" fundamentally and those who gather the data know what they actually want out of it. Company-user interactions would likely produce better data. It feels like half of an understanding of both data usage and union style collective barganing.

Unless I am missing something it seems a bit like trying to combine a semitruck and a bicycle to get green bulk cargo transportation. Sure both things individually have these advantages and it would be great to have all in one but implementing it is fundamentally nonviable.
I have been using fastapi for a project in the last months and it has been a delightful experience. I really love how the framework is designed, the great documentation and the built in support for Async/await.

Thanks for creating this awesome framework!
The underlining of "beautiful" bugged me. It intersects with the text and it extends further to the left of the first b than to the right of the last l. If I was paying money for a beautiful UI component I'd expect the creater to be super meticulous about how things look.

Page is fine though, very clear.

Gravy | Product Designer / UX Designer / UI Designer

Gravy designs and builds the most beautiful and usable digital products.
http://heygravy.com

We are growing our consulting capacity and are looking for a mid–to–senior-level designer to help design the future of energy system design, development platforms, healthcare, and more! Our current need is ideally for someone on a contract basis, with the understanding that the role will evolve into a full-time role if there’s a mutual fit.

I’ve been designing human-centered systems for almost 10 years now, and I’m looking for someone interested in learning and who cares about continued professional development. In addition to running Gravy, I teach design research, so come motivated and ready to learn! If you think you’re a good fit, send me your portfolio and share what’s exciting you most in the world right now.

hn-hiring@heygravy.com

It could be something cool you’ve learned, something you’re working on, or something you’ve just been geeking out about. Why is it interesting to you?
Health insurance companies are allowed to make a certain percentage of profit, so they actually don't have a strong incentive to keep payouts down.
Not super related, but a friend of mine recently said "If you're the kind of person who is satisfied by a large task list, you shouldn't make todos. If you're the kind of person who hates them, you should."

It seems obvious after it being mentioned, but I noticed a useful corollary: a list of done tasks actually makes me unhappy. So I avoid todo pages where a done list is visible. Hiding done tasks (i.e. archiving done cards on Trello, deleting a row on your todo list instead of strikethrough), etc. has led me to use it better.

This isn't your problem, clearly, but just wanted to share a useful tip.
Why are people still so surprised when Google makes a thing and then two years later cuts apart the thing into oblivion? How many more times are they expecting their users to be Charlie Brown to their Lucy?

Offer an American a hamburger patty coated in thick demi-glace, and they’ll likely raise an eyebrow at this common Japanese staple dubbed hambagoo.

But I'm an American, and that immediately sounds pretty good to me. Like a little Japanese meatloaf. The only "grammar" problem I see there is that I suspect the word is hambagu.
That doesn't sound great. There is no reason the favicon should be loaded from tiangolo.com...

This is totally the right move. I am a (very happy) user of Stadia. If you haven't tried it, you really should...it's an amazing piece of tech. I can find myself with 20-30 minutes worth of downtime during the day, fire up Cyberpunk 2077 or Hitman or Assassin's Creed in moments from my browser *on a macbook* and play at high settings with no noticeable lag.

Obviously you need a strong, steady internet connection for Stadia to shine, but I'd guess that the HN crowd skews towards that.

If you're an old gamer who wants to play newer games but doesn't have a ton of time and don't want to drop $1k+ on a gaming rig, check out Stadia.

The game library does leave a lot to be desired, no question about that. But this decision seems to be the right move to mitigate that by giving developers better access to getting their games on Stadia rather than Google trying to be both the platform and the content.
Did you find the model to perform better / worse when the background varied? I see it's all wood table examples in the gifs.
I like VLC but why is it so difficult to set the volume at exactly 100%? Or did I overlook an obvious way?

Imagine it being a banner year for PC gaming during a pandemic, and then shutting down your cloud gaming service. It's almost like Google can easily make their money elsewhere, so they don't have to make their money any other way, or even put in the work to make it work.

None of that has anything to do with this topic. This is about Facebook's access to the Apple IDFA. There are no web URLs involved[0] when you click an ad on instagram and it launches another app on your phone. These are separate issues, and I don't entire disagree with the others you brought up.

1Password | Backend Engineer | Full-time | REMOTE + FULLY DISTRIBUTED (Canada, USA)

1Password is the world’s most-loved password manager.

I’m the tech lead on the Administrator Tools team. We build products, feature sets, and tools for our most powerful users. From building usable and scalable means of managing vaults, groups, and users, to making account recovery simple, and secure, we enable administrators to manage 1Password for their entire company.

You may be a fit for the role if you:

* Are excited to learn new things as you tackle new features and make existing ones better
* Have a critical eye for detail and you understand that perfection is the enemy of good
* Show a healthy balance of being able to work collaboratively while also taking responsibility for the tasks assigned to you
* Show a penchant for clean, idiomatic code that's easy to read and maintain
* Have a strong understanding of web server and RESTful API design
* Are proficient in writing well-optimized MySQL database queries
* Know secure coding practices
* A thorough grasp of how networking works

Bonus points if you have:

* Experience with Golang. It's certainly nice, but not required. Show us that you have a great understanding of any modern programming language, and we'll trust that you'll learn Go just fine.
* Experience with JavaScript, Typescript, and/or React.js. Sometimes you’ll need to dive into the frontend to understand how a feature works.

Nightwatch.io | Remote | Full-time | Elixir, Rust, Ruby, Go

We’re looking for an experienced developer who enjoys working with server side technologies and possesses a good mixture of DevOps and application development chops, has been around the block a couple of times, and would like to build forward-thinking and innovative solutions with experienced teammates in a progressive-oriented environment.

About the role: You should have plenty of experience in building performant, easy to use, well monitored and well tested APIs, creating and maintaining robust web applications, designing efficient data flows, communicating clearly, sharing knowledge and questioning existing solutions.

If you are a positive-oriented hacker who does not fit the traditional company structure and resonates with the mindset of programming languages and paradigms being just a tool and not a heavy personal attachment and identification, then this role might be the right fit for you.

About the company: We’re a self funded SaaS company that primarily builds forward-thinking tools for internet professionals. We are a bootstrapped company that believes the future belongs to smaller companies that don’t subscribe to the 9-to-5 corporate way of doing things. We believe that the Silicon Valley era is over, and we are building a business that allows us to enjoy the freedom of working remotely where each of us has the autonomy and flexibility to have a high impact on the world with our work.

The best manager I ever had set it up like so, he'd go:

Here's a large, open-ended problem I want you to solve this quarter. I'll secretly wait while you fix a thousand other unrelated problems that make our business better despite making no visible progress on the open-ended problem. Then I'll reframe your work to show management that the thousand other things you improved are more valuable than the open-ended problem, and get you promoted.

I miss that guy.

That makes the point a lot worse, and really just comes across as you responding to a set of assumptions nobody is actually making.

What is the ‘it’ which you imagine people think is trivial?

Who is saying anything is trivial?

Where is anyone saying it’s just technology?

Who said people don’t have a preference to use Facebook?

How do you know how hard people have thought about this?

I don’t think Facebook is trivial to replace, but that isn’t because people are dependent on it in a way that is comparable to the other examples you mentioned.

Unlike the examples you listed, people can easily do without Facebook. There just isn’t much incentive for most people to do so, since they don’t perceive the downsides adequately.

A boiler humidifier has a nice random gurgle noise; that could be a plus for some. The water tank can be rather nasty and you know that the water vapor is safer because its steam.

Propane heat emits water vapor too; and if you can have a lot of plants around they add moisture and lots of other good and bad things to the air.

My issues are such that I can have happy plants and benefit from them. For about the power cost of a humidifier i can have an LED lit jungle shelf that transpires more than a gallon of water a day
I hope not. The Stadia platform is fantastic: the best streaming user experience out there. It’s just that much of the Stadia Pro content is mediocre, and the paid titles tend to be expensive. (Compare to GeForce Now with it’s awkward, clunky UX but near-unlimited library of content via Steam)
The only constant there is you which means it is perhaps you.

Setting up and caring for a DB cluster is a complicated thing, to the point of there being non-BS certification courses for nearly every major HA database including Mongo. It very well could be that there was a well-documented flag that you never learned.

This doesn't mean you're being unreasonable. I'd be cranky with any DB getting itself in a split-brain scenario, but my conclusion wouldn't be a bug in the software but rather it's a bug in my understanding. It's worth noting that getting in this state should either be impossible, or it should be obvious about how it arrived at such a state with links to relevant documentation.

(There's also little incentive to make it super easy to run in production on your own. They sell that as a service after all. It wouldn't surprise me if the product had invariants that assumed production-level configurations and that nobody's tested with whatever configs ended up making it go nuts.)
Moreover, the people with really fantastic Internet access tend to also be the same people that can afford to buy a console or gaming pc instead.
As far as I can tell, empathy goes both ways, and I think it's a bit unfair of you to call me unempathetic for simply expressing how I'm feeling.

I also don't think the examples you give are great analogues to the situation (although highly related) as I've not meet a lot of people using alcoholism, bulimia and asthma as a way to avoid everyday tasks in contrast to ADHD.
Was there any performance gain when you guys switched to MsgPack?

> why is AMD able to ship more stable drivers?

Well, they don't — AMD drivers for new hardware famously take a few kernel releases to stabilize. (G)GP specifically noted their stability problem started only 5 months ago, which means at least that issue is not really systemic. The real differentiator here is handling of existing complaints: Linux has mailing lists, Mesa has a normal open for everyone bug tracker, while Nvidia has a user support forum, which they mostly ignore.
