I think a lot depends on what timescales you consider to be "speeded up". I don't think the perception that a huge amount of stuff happens between the ages of 16 and 18 and seems like it was only last week between the ages of 30 and 35 has much to do with cognitive decline. Feelings of WTF it's two hours later and I feel like I've only been editing for 10 minutes and just need 10 minutes more, likely are linked to cognitive decline, but I'm young enough to only have that feeling when I'm really, really tired, and I sometimes had it when I was 20 too...

The difference between opt-in and out organ donors between otherwise similar countries is a staggering 80% — people are seriously lazy and will choose the default almost always.

This is such a massively important point. Back when I was growing up (Apple ][ / 8086 PC) the software was basically written by one or two people.

Not entire teams of people scheming addictive manipulation with slot-machine payout rates tuned to precise dopamine chemistries and social networking pressures using models that have been tuned and proven to be frighteningly effective over two decades of experimentation.

I played a machine zone game, thankfully only lost about 60 bucks on that crap between me and my GF, and by then I became wise to what they were doing, and shocked on all the levels of manipulation they were using for what is essentially a nag game that strongly rewards bullying for those people that pay to win.

The history of these games goes back at least to the mid2000s (anyone remember Civony/Evony and "Come Play My Lord" Ads? Those are basically the same game as Machine Zone). They've been honing the various mechanisms (false advertising about what the game entails, grooming whale players, addictive gameplay) using mechanics from civilization, tamagochi, and whatever else works.

Children's mobile games show a shocking amount of manipulative mechanics for the "free with ads" tier which for 90% of people (you know, the ones that aren't rich) will be what they use.

Then again, this is the world they will be living in, so exposure to the manipulation may be good for them in limited doses, but "adult supervision" is more needed than ever.
I wrote that from the customers perspective, though. If the shop is too far away to be comfortable to reach (20mins in your example, mileage my vary), there are usually options to get it sent to your house.

Yes, you need to make a new account probably, but that's just minutes, and only in case you are shopping there for the first time.

I had a talk with someone about that, and he was like, "Well I'd had to open 1-2 accounts every week at various shops and completely loose control over it". But I think the true problem in this case is a different one.
Devil's advocate: From an evolutionary perspective, our bodies were designed as mere vessels to propagate our genes.

They were not designed to survive 7-8 decades regardless of diet, because by this time reproductive success (and therefore fitness and pressure) is zero for women and almost zero for many men.

Devil's advocate against this point: Grandparents might increase the reproductive success of their children's children, helping their genes propagate in accordance to Kin theory.

Devil's advocate against Devil's advocate of this point: Grandparents might also decrease the reproductive success of their offspring, since they must care for their own children as well as their parents. Hence, the near inescapable phenomena of dementia as age increases into the 100s, and the trait of Senicide (ex. Ättestupa) in many cultures.

My point being, maybe it is best to avoid categorical statements about "evolutionary perspectives."

edit: Correction, Ättestupa is mythological and not a good example of Senecide. The wiki for senecide has many other examples, however.
Ha, cool. I learned Python on your distribution ca. 2014.
My counter argument is it can be nearly impossible to build an audience outside of a kingdom. Many popular YouTubers will try and splinter off and create websites where they can monetize better. I'm even subscribed to one of these websites because I really do want to support the Creator, but I still consume almost all of their content on YouTube. YouTube makes it very easy to upload something and for people to consume it.

If your video on getting better gas mileage is on GasBro.net I'll never find it. If it's on YouTube I might .

This is mathematically true, but it does not explain the effect. It reminded me of the calories in, calories out thing.

You gain weight because you eat more calories that you burn. This is, again, mathematically correct, but it offers no explanation of the why

Why do you eat more than you burn ? you move too little ? you eat too much ? your brain malfunctions and it is unable to detect food intake ?
Had it when I was a child! Twice, even! (18mo and 10yr old). Mine was so bad my left eye basically hung out in the corner - so incredibly thankful for the awesome pediatric ophthalmologist I had looking back on how much different my vision could have turned out (it's still far from perfect, my left eye is mostly used for periphery, but it's much better than the alternatives).
Oh - I met a partner in Canada and when we looked at the costs to immigrate one way or the other it made a lot more sense to move up to Canada. Additionally the service offering was quite attractive up here, I'm in BC so there isn't any free pharmacare but there still is a pretty large provincial subsidy program.

Additionally I was pleasantly surprised, when I moved up, to learn that Canada doesn't have the same culture of greed. I feel like, if you aren't making every cent possible in America that you could - if you aren't constantly extracting the absolute maximum revenue - you're looked down on. Up here I've found a much nicer focus on balancing work with interests.

> it is not for the market to adapt to our needs, it is for us to adapt to the market and hopefully we can extract what we need.

The market isn't a magical entity which demands human sacrifices. It's quite possible to keep it reigned in with a combination of banning private property investments[1] with public housing and urban renewal projects. Cut down on detrimental demand and increase supply.

Can you elaborate? Your local repo then re-exports the dependencies to be consumed by your application or how would you do it properly?
> But if you were to actually do a conversion: How does the heating/AC work? How does your power steering work? How do the brakes work?

Those are the easy parts because all 3 run off of hydraulics and electricity. As long as they get power supplied to them, they all just work.

Brakes don't even need power, I believe, and can work purely mechanically. Of course you won't have regenerative braking in a retrofit.

Ignore the hater's comments. Emacs is Lindy[1], will be around for another 40+ years, and no amount of ankle-biting will change that. Having used it off and on for a couple decades, I can say with confidence that the Emacs community and ecosystem has never been stronger. And thanks to the LSP, it's comparable in IDE features to other LSP capable editors. With the new in version 28 type-inferencing JIT compiler[2], performance has also never been better.

Emacs outshines all other editors in two major respects: discoverability and extensibility. These are two sides of the same coin. When I say discoverability, I mean how the editor actually functions, not just reminders for what the keybinds are. The internal calls can be instrumented, advised, and even rewritten. And this ties into extensibility. In other editors writing an extension is a full blown project. Let's say you identify a need while you're doing your real work. In most editors you now have to create a new plugin project and set up a bunch of boiler plate before you can even get started. By then I've already discovered what I need to do and hacked a solution in the scratch buffer without getting dropped out of my flow for my real work.

There's no denying that Emacs has its warts and that Elisp has a lot of historical baggage. Those who don't grok the Lisp approach to interactive development will never be able to understand why even an admittedly mediocre Lisp is a more frictionless development experience than anything they've ever used.

This is not a new undertaking for Ford. Ford sells a ton crate motors. This is already available on the Ford Performance website. https://performanceparts.ford.com/part/M-9000-MACHE

There has never been an FP part that was given a part number, but never made available. They have offered pretty exotic engines, and even the components to convert lesser Mustangs into special edition ones.

It is highly unlikely Ford will renege on this.
My 2 cents on how to fix social media, maybe it is stupid but to ban any political discussion. People LOVE talking about politics especially in their personal community (echo chamber). I swear this is the most fun political people have had on the internet in 20 years. It’s too bad it just becomes an echo chamber. We had a community group for our town on Facebook, all it was was fake accounts and people talking shit about Democrats and the occasional left wing person talking shit back. Recently they banned political discussion and anything not directly related to our town. Thank the fucking lord. People will still slip in some political bullshit but it’s miles better.
This reminds me of a fun internet rabbithole. Feeling a little too comfortable? Need a little spice in your life? Why not watch some... surgery videos?

In the wake of having multiple surgeries myself, I became interested in watching procedures like the one in the article actually being performed. For example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DQfRKTKmq80 (warning: may be disturbing).

I don't consider myself squeamish, but just try finishing a video of, say, knee-replacement surgery. Imagine carpentry, with someone's living bone. Yikes.

Massive respect for the people who successfully do this every day without being completely overwhelmed by the complexity, the high stakes, and, especially, the cringe-inducing gore.
Unless you have an incredible dust collection system in place, I would seriously reconsider any potential plans to cut MDF in your apartment. The particles are very fine and you will find it everywhere. And that is to say nothing of the particles that you'd be inhaling.
Obviously they need to keep planning for the next few decades but personally I can't even think about this before I see the JWST has successfully launched and deployed. Something going wrong there would be major setback for all plans. It would be hard to justify betting another $10-20 billion after the last bet went wrong.
The anandtech benchmarks show that they have better performance in single-core benchmarks (that run on the performance cores) and Ryzen has the upper-hand in multi-threaded benchmarks (since it is all performance cores). So it seems like if the goal was to make an enthusiast chip they would have been better off stuffing their chip with their superior performance cores.

Obviously Intel wants to compete on mobile. It's the biggest market now, and they've been the worst at it. But a new platform is expensive so in the beginning you have to start with the high-margin enthusiast chips, so even if a platform is designed to have gains on mobile you have to start them at the enthusiast level. If they weren't planning on scaling this down to mobile there would be no reason for this architecture. But it doesn't look like it will actually end up any more efficient with their tech.
There are plenty of books. There's Aimchess. Lichess has lots of free material. So does YouTube. Reddit too. The meme subbreddit is better to learn from than the actual chess one.

If you're talking about strategy (long term) and not just tactics (correct next moves), a simple beginner trick is to try to control the middle 4 squares, then castle the king so it's not vulnerable, then start attacking.

Past the early game it's mostly pattern recognition and geometry. Your moves try to threaten two pieces at a time. e.g. a bishop might threaten two pieces in a row. Or it may force a protecting piece away from a critical tile you need to win.

I'm not sure what this has to do with programming though.

I am so sharp when I’m fasted.. easily become a force multiplier. Maybe a little more agro.

Also, I burn ~2000kcal without doing anything new? When a heavy workout burns what 500-1000 kcal.

I don’t need to sleep as much either. I wish I had learned more about the connection between my diet, biology, etc and my productivity when I was younger. And yes, I’ve started to look younger too.

Can’t wait to see the research evolve in this area.

Trying to draw conclusions about mobile parts from desktop parts is what people magazine racing CPUs do.

It's silly.

And it's doubly silly when you're talking about heterogeneous computing.

> If you have no choice but to consume massive amounts of power to get top performance, so be it. But given the choice...

I mean you have the choice? Don't get the top of the line halo part meant to break records at all costs?

The i5 is almost as fast as the i9, faster than the previous i5 and the 5800X, while using considerably less power than the i9.

-

Top performance always equals "massive power draw"

A 5950X will draw over 300W if you OC, which, surprise surprise, a lot of people who are spending $800 on a CPU end up doing.

I guess I just figured by now people would understand that and focus on performance for the halo SKUs
Talking about eye surgery is like nails on a chalkboard to me. I don’t want to talk about yours, let alone think about mine.

I have joked with my friends and family about giving them a limited power of attorney that in the case of eye or testicular surgery they can dose me with tranquilizers or anti anxiety meds without my knowledge and deliver me to the surgeon, having not told me that my surgery is today.

They’re not sure if I’m kidding, and neither am I.

"Ultimately, Landgren hopes the Öppna Skolplattformen saga will teach politicians and city officials that the technology they provide for citizens shouldn’t be procured as huge IT projects—and that the people who will end up using it should be involved in the planning and development. Landgren argues that cities should learn to run their IT projects with small updates, rather than monstrous procurements that can easily go wrong. Most of all, Landgren argues that officials should make their APIs open so citizens can build technology that works for them. “If you build the API,” he says, “the app will come.”"
That's why businesses always try to make their revenue model diverse, so that, even when one or two of them dry up, the business still have some breathing room left. This is a business 101 stuff.

When you open a store in a mall, you better have another store outside the mall. Otherwise, you'll get killed rather quickly.
> The brain needs constant fuel. Anyone experience this as well?

That is true, however that fuel does not need to be glucose. As far as I understand it, people eating 3 meals a day and snacks (all containing carbohydrates), their body is not used to relying solely on fat/ketones for energy, and it takes time to adjust.

Also, it's very important when fasting to ensure you're replacing water and electrolytes since once you've burned through your stored glycogen you will have lost quite a bit of water. If you're feeling light headed or out of it, that is one of the causes, whether you're starting a ketogenic diet or fasting.

When I'm fasting I use an electrolyte mix which has sodium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium and calcium. One of the main reasons for refeeding syndrome is that electrolytes are depleted, and when someone eats again, their cells take up what little electrolytes are left in the blood, which leads to dangerously low levels.
Age might result in neural complexities, but this can apparently be tampered with to some extent.

When you watch a movie for the first time, it seems to last longer than when you watch it a second time. It seems to me that as our brain is processing new information our perception of time is dilated.

As we grow older, we have to learn less about the world and consequently time is perceived as quicker. I suspect this is why during a drug induced euphoria the experience seems like it can last an eternity and time ceases to exist. Our brain is processing and adapting to the stimuli much as we were doing in our youth.

There are of course two different perceptions of time. Current and retrospective. Some days can seem to last forever, but by the end of the week you end up feeling like the week went by very fast. The opposite is true, as well as a mix of both.
What’s the point? Meth isn’t a huge European issue is it? They’re usually dealing with impure amphetamine pastes.

They already can block it with antipsychotics which block dopamine. Since addiction to stimulants is much faster to recover from, they can even just induce sleep for 3 days and all physical withdrawal will be gone and the dopamine receptors will recover.

Is the monoclonal antibodies treatment just an artifact of the COVID one like how mRNA treatments will probably also be in the pipeline from research?

OP: this is yours right? Did you just add the b2b one or something?
WYSIWYG, in every sense of the expression. There's no written abstraction. You just see the data (and depending on how things are structured, sometimes the intermediate steps getting that data from point A to point B).

With code, you type the abstractions while imagining the data in your head -- and then check to see if the final result is the right one. The average user will usually litter the code with debug print statements to help understanding what's going on live

With Excel, you live in the runtime and you stare at the results of your "code" all of the time. The abstractions and the links between steps of the process either live in your head (because you know how that financial model works) or are buried in formulas in the most asynchronous of layouts (cell A1 may be the result of a calculation in cell Z99, for instance)
