Agreed. If you live in a world that is designed mostly for and by people who are unlike you in some significant way, it's hard not to feel like an outsider.

And if feeling like an outsider is classified as a type of poor mental health or anxiety, well...
My stomach also stopped tolerating coffee. Decaf is fine for me so I think it's the caffeine. However, I can tolerate a caffeinated cup every now and then, just not daily or twice daily as I had been before.

Would be curious if anyone has ever been able to regain their tolerance. I really loved coffee.

I have been a workaholic all my life and always worried sick about my job to the point of making my family feel neglected. We have all suffered together for years. I am good at what I do for a living, but I have been on tenterhooks all the time to see if my company will show me the door or close down, and now, since neither was ever the case in my roughly 20-year career, I don't know whether to laugh or cry! Currently, I am on a sabbatical to get things in perspective and mend my fences.

the average annual income in China is something around $12K. I would not say it is developed, just because the top percentile of the population seem to live lavish lives.

did a quick look - median income is around $4K-6K a year. there is no way that can be compared to any 1st world country. http://www.stats.gov.cn/english/PressRelease/202101/t2021011...

According to this list - China's median income is comparable to Bolivia, Libya, Dominican Republic, Paraguay, etc. Would you list all those as developed countries?

What and excellent summary. Do this.
That should work in the provided example, but in general `fn(cb)` is different: you lose the implied `this` binding unless you do `cb.bind(something)` beforehand.

There's also some unexpected trouble due to potential extra parameters. Consider the output of

['1', '2', '3'].map(parseInt)

gives:

[1, NaN, NaN]

So yea, fn(() => cb()) is the same as fn(() => {return cb()}) – just syntactic sugar when the anonymous function has just one statement. but fn(cb) is semantically different.

I don't know why this concept is so difficult for some people. Fantasy and reality are not the same thing. Millions (if not billions) of people occasionally have fantasies about strangling their boss, or murdering people they don't like, and they never actually do those things because they're abhorrent. Add some "think of the children!" into the mix and otherwise rational people are suddenly very much in favor of lynching.

Glad to know.

I've indeed heard about many good experiences. In my country they weren't particularly active (maybe still aren't, it's been a long time I don't follow their news any more).

My experience wasn't good. I think it was the most heterogeneous group I've ever met. That's not bad by itself, but it was detrimental under the circumstances.

Besides, almost 100% of them were at least 20 years older than me, so our interests didn't match. I think that that might have played a role on my discomfort -- I had the high IQ but didn't had the repertoire and experience to hold constructive conversations with them. And being extremely socially awkward didn't help me either.

However, between them, there were many disputes over silly subjects, pseudoscience, conspiracy theories, a constant, extensive and aggressive use of irony, and other "unanticipated" stuff.

I only paid the first annuity and didn't want to participate any more.

I stand corrected -- I was working from memory and didn't spot that development. Thanks!

I'll have to do a bit more digging to see if my original point still holds, even though the example I used to illustrate it doesn't.

E.g. see https://www.dmlp.org/legal-guide/works-not-covered-copyright -

> there may be situations in which a compilation of facts may be protected if the creator of the original publication selected, coordinated, or arranged the facts in an original way. For example, a sports almanac may arrange baseball scores in a creative way, a genealogy chart may arrange birth dates in an original way, or a cookbook may arrange ingredients in a creative and original way as part of its recipes. In each of those instances, the creator of the work would have a copyright in the creative arrangement of the facts, but not the facts themselves.

Though https://www.copyright.gov/circs/circ33.pdf says about recipes,

> the Office cannot register recipes consisting of a set of ingredients and a process for preparing a dish. In contrast, a recipe that creatively explains or depicts how or why to perform a particular activity may be copyrightable. A registration for a recipe may cover the written description or explanation of a process that appears in the work, as well as any photographs or illustrations that are owned by the applicant

So I'm not clear where the boundary actually is on this one.

Very smart people use “heuristics”. They will do something, tell you it was obvious, not be able to rationally explain why they are right, and turn out to be 100% correct. It is a pattern I have seen in some very smart people I know that appear illogical on their surface.
There is a degree of exaggeration, I won't argue. Although, it's not that big as it may appear. It's hard to deny that censorship, self-censorship, and cancel culture are on the rise nowadays. Not just on Reddit, but also in many aspects of online and offline social life especially when it comes to colleagues, acquaintances, neighbors and relatives. From that perspective, it's not that far from the everyday life in the Soviet era when people had to pick very carefully what they say and to whom they say it. In certain aspects, it's even worse now because every online communication can be recorded forever and used against the author at any moment for the rest of the author's life. KGB would only dream about such capability.
There is not so much a shortage but instead the empty containers are in the wrong place.

There's a big range from true open-plan space (long tables with employees sitting shoulder-to-shoulder next to each other) to private offices with doors.

Somewhere in between are traditional "cube farms" which provide some amount of semi-privacy, less distracting nightlines, noise reduction, and feeling of personal space. Most of the companies I've seen are still more like this.

I think that many addictions can be ok, so long as you understand how much power they have over you and keep a wary eye on them.

An addiction can work well in some environment but completely destroy you if your environment changes.

Also, I'm not convinced that caffeine addiction is completely overcome in the week or so it takes for the physical withdrawal. Even for myself when I decide to go through long periods of decaffeination, I find that my energy and motivation is significantly deteriorated from when I regularly caffeinate. Sometimes I wonder if my regular use as a college student permanently altered my brain chemistry. On the flip side, maybe this use set me up for the early career success that I might not otherwise have achieved.
I live on a poverty line and I just give homeless people there I know smokes and cash for food. That’s more than most people manage to do.
I agree that the way I've made my statement can be ambiguous. What I meant was when using Node/Python/Go for projects of similar complexity. Maybe not millions of lines of code, but a web app with some order processing, database access and specific business logic. It feels harder in every way when using Java + Spring Boot, but my question was sincere: I'm pretty sure that this combo is a successful platform and I want to understand why.

Finally, by excessive use of annotations, I think I'm talking about ORMs. I remember checking a Hibernate-based project in the past and some methods had more lines of annotations than actual code. I'm not sure this is bad, but it kind of creates a new dimension of code for me to wonder about.
I'm not entirely sure what evidence would satisfy you.

Are you rejecting epidemiological models as a reasonable representation of reality? That's a pretty bold take - all models have limits, but epidemiological modelling is a pretty well established science that makes good predictions that repeatedly hold up.

There are mechanical reasons to think a lockdown should work (reduced contact means reduced transmission), good explanations for circumstances where they fail (exponential spread from any leakage means it doesn't take long to erase the gains from reduced transmission) and multiple locations where they have worked.
The link includes players with vastly lower winrate and players with high winrates but for extremely low number of games.

We need sufficient quantities to claim 99% winrate, for highly ranked players even with 200 games(which is still a low number since a single loss can massively affect results) are not even close to 80% winrate. probably with enough games it will be even lower.

Maintaining 99% winrate is extremely hard as you can only lose a single game out of 100. people get tired, try new stuff, simply don't pay attention or just get caught off guard by a new thing.

As for "malicious exploitation", it does poses a risk in some environments but the question then becomes exactly the same.

America should use the "we need to spend spend spend to revitalize the economy" to domesticate more industry.
Nope, that's - as far as I can see - just a sequence of increasing integers. Both K and J examples give an array of random integers in 0-1000000 range.

For reference, in J such sequence of integers can be generated with:

1+i.1000000
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 ....

or:

1+i.1000000 1
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
....

To explain the previous examples (and let's use smaller integer for less typing...), the `$` verb is called "shape"/"reshape", and it takes a (list of) values on the right side, and a list of dimensions on the left:

5 2 $ 10
10 10
10 10
10 10
10 10
10 10

if there's not enough values on the right, they are cycled:

5 2 $ 10 11 12
10 11
12 10
11 12
10 11
12 10

which degenerates to repetition if there's only one value on the right. The `~` adjective (called "reflex") modifies a verb to its left in the following way:

V~ x NB. same as x V x

so `$~10` is the same as `10$10`, which is a list of ten tens. That list is passed to `?`, which is a verb called "roll", which gives a random integer in the 0-(y-1) range when written as `? y`. `y` here can be a scalar, or a list, in which case the roll is performed for each element of the list:

$~ 10
10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10
? $~ 10
1 6 9 4 6 8 8 7 9 4

The dyadic case, ie. `x ? y` is called "deal", which selects `x` elements from `i. y` list at random, without repetitions. `?~ y`, then, effectively shuffles the `i. y` list:

?~10
6 9 7 3 5 1 8 0 4 2

"deal" can be used to shuffle any list, not only the `i. y` sequence, by using the shuffled list as indexes of another list (using `{` verb, called "from"):

2*i.10
0 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18
(?~10){2*i.10
14 10 18 6 2 12 8 0 16 4

...I know, I know, it is strange. But it's so interestingly mind-bending that I'd be really happy if I had a valid excuse to pour hundreds of hours into learning J properly. Sadly, I don't have anything like that, so I only spread the strangeness from time to time in comments, like I do right now :)

to me this reads similar to the old misconception that all bullies are insecure (it's often quite the opposite). what makes you think that people engaging in a group based on what they feel is a big part of their identity are insecure? Do you think gay people in pride parades, minorities in various race groups, etc are insecure? I'm not taking a position on mensa, gender, etc. I just don't agree with the idea that people joining mensa are necessarily insecure.
It's beyond ridiculous -- there's no reason not to keep cascading that reasoning into everything. Any business that serviced backpage is a sex-traffic supporter; Any business that serviced a business that serviced to backpage is also a sex-traffic supporter.

You could even make the case that the US government itself, in not immediately and totally eliminating backpage from existence upon public accusation, and thus allowing its continued operation, is a sex-traffic supporter. And of course, every government that provides services to the US government. And even the taxpayer, who didn't refuse to pay tax this year to a government in support of sex trafficking, have also supported the backpage operation.

>accepting transgender folks' identities

that is the issue of social policy (i'm for accepting of whatever identities people have, whether it has scientific basis or not) while the article is supposedly about scientific findings

that is my point. It is an science related article and thus it is the context where significant degree of precision and obtuseness with definitions is kind of expected. Slipping in such a blanket imprecise statement is what i tried to point to.

Mmm... No. It's just post-hoc justification of the design.

> > Why does it need to include any other unused module?

> Because without at the very least parse the entire dependency tree of the module (which could be huge) it cannot know if it's unused.

Once again: no. Because it already knows it's unused and stops the compilation. So it already knows it's unused.

> If you import it then it's not unused, and it's extremely common that that's a mistake. That's why.

Once again:

- the compiler has already parsed everything

- the compiler already knows that the import is unused

- the compiler stops the compilation at this point ... because otherwise it would have to include anyway even though at this point it already knows that the import is unused

> How many times do you just leave "#include <sys/types.h>" because you don't know exactly why you imported it?

There are other ways of dealing with this than halting the compilation entirely.
