As far as I’m concerned. They don’t care. Wife and I were leaving singapore and got emergency visa for her as we would be stranded in singapore with no where to live and MIQ didn’t care at all. Unless we were able to get a letter or proof we can’t stay in singapore we were not provided any assistance while MIQ was in lock down.

Luckily Taiwan border opened up at the last minute and we were able to travel there instead.

Basically the whole quarantine and MIQ is a massive cluster fuck mess. And you can’t even call anyone. You can only contact them via email.
Besides what the other commenters have said, I have 32GB RAM. If Firefox or IntelliJ don't use it, nothing else will. I'd rather have the applications I live in utilise as much memory to make the experience faster and better, than to have unused RAM be wasted. IntelliJ is far superior over VS Code, VIM, etc. IntelliJ is batteries included, whereas VS Code, VIM, and most other editors require additional configurations. Some configurations I've seen have required hours and hours of set up and integration. With IntelliJ on the other hand, it just works. I click run on the main function, and it asks me for the compiler/runtime config the first time round, and afterwards it just fully works. Even running tests is as simply as clicking run from there on.
*Thanks to the chip shortage and trillions in money printing
Everything you've listed (and more) have been major pain points for me for the last 14 years or so, but especially this one:

> Ability to "feel" the nearness of the future, and plan and act accordingly

I'm almost incapable of preparing and perceiving the nearness of future events until the panic settles in that I'm late, behind, etc. It is especially exacerbated for things that I'm not good at or have anxiety around, like giving a presentation, working on a large refactor/feature, buying gifts for an occasion, preparing for a trip that involves multiple transitions/transportation, interviews, etc etc.

I'm getting evaluated for ADHD as I've recently been reading the literature and realizing that almost all the things I've been complaining about and trying to fix in myself for the last 10+ years, fall in the description and the features of ADHD.
Prime video only exists because of the incremental prime sign-ups, prime renewals, and prime spending money on physical retail. It's all they care about.

When it comes to MIQ allocation they aren’t put ahead of anyone - everyone who has the ability to enter NZ has the same chance and ability to obtain MIQ slots.
>All this just so I won't get tempted to check social media

Don't install it on your smartphone. Its like the best diet advice in the world... don't buy the food and bring it into your home, and you can't be tempted by it.

Social media should only ever be checked from a web browser on a PC.
That might not be that late. I finally got diagnosed at 41, and my psych said adult ADHD being diagnosed so late is surprisingly common.

In retrospect, it's obvious I've struggled with it for most of my adult life, but I learned to cope. Usually by self-medicating. Like you, Adderall seems like a winner.
Whenever i have to do boring chores, such as the dishes, i put on a podcast to keep my mind engaged.

My SO laughs as i literally put on a podcast to take the garbage out, but it does help my ADHD for tasks such as that

I think people are getting too hung up on the term disability. A big reason why it's used in the US is a legal one: to simplify, if it's a disability, employers must make reasonable accommodations for it.
I explained that poorly. I do use the website on my PC, which I log into with a password and using a two-factor authentication app on my phone, which is currently the only secure two-factor method that is well supported and this will likely continue to be the case in the future.
DOxygen existed for D at the time we developed Ddoc, and some people used it, and so I was constantly asked "Why not just use DOxygen?"

The problem with DOxygen was, it wasn't installed automatically! It was extra work to go get it and install it, so it never happened. What a builtin Ddoc does is:

1. It's always installed

2. It's always matched to the current compiler (one never has a mismatched set)

3. It is standardized (code using DocX is not mismatched with other code using DocY)

4. It can take advantage of the compiler's available semantic information

5. Don't have to beg documentation tool vendor to add features we need. For example, Markdown support was recently added. Didn't have to ask or beg. A Ddoc user simply added it

These advantages are enormous and transformative. Minimizing friction matters a great deal.

C and C++ do not have builtin documentation generators. I ask you, of professional C/C++ code you've seen, how many consistently and properly documented the function interfaces? In my experience, it's rare. It's much more common in D, and that's entirely due to Ddoc.
If you don’t mind me asking, what EDA tool are you guys using at the moment at Oxide for your motherboards?

Don't seek to catch a wave. Seek to live an enjoyable life. Speculative investment for wave riding gains is fruitless, divisive. It builds nothing. Speculative investment in real goods and services isn't entirely harmless but has at least some real world upsides.

I would like to be in a work environment where things make sense.

An environment where colleagues and managers don't make seemingly irrational decisions.

I get things done when I am left to get on with them.

I don't like it when I question tasks I am given, and it is interpreted as me not understanding it.
I understand it just fine. I'm baffled by the vague and inaccurate definitions of the tasks. I then question whether it is me missing something obvious, or them missing the essence of it.

It's not me. It's everyone else that has the issues.

It's all relative.
I think it falls flat because his base chose a side a long time ago, and he now knows it's not a side he can win on.
I've organically done almost everything on this list to be productive. Either I've got severe ADHD (which I've suspected since I was young, but have not been diagnosed), or these techniques are valuable to anyone.
Intel apologizes in China after backlash over Xinjiang statement
Like AJayWalker said, bring it up with your PCP. Just say: I think I may have AD(H)D, can you give me some recommendations of who to talk to? My PCP had a few, and I had to call around, because some weren't taking new patients. Some PCPs will treat it directly, but many won't. You're better off going to a place that deals with that and other psych issues frequently.
Washington Post Grasps for New Direction as Trump-Era Boom Fades
I've started a similar to #2 web site for banks, it started with a customer suggestion that he wanted to have a system where he can track his complaints. I can see the reason, as the relationship with corporations reminds a black box, you throw an idea and get nothing in response. As I did not get any response from banks, I am now thinking to convert it into private communities around banks and have all the ideas and complaints in one place. I am hoping that when I manage to attract enough users the banks will come
Yeah, I've gone with the compromise of my own domain and a rented managed server for the last twenty years or so. Works well enough for me. I like to be able to give different email addresses every time I need to register somewhere. Keeps my personal address free of spam.
Congrats to the KiCad Team! KiCad 6 is a huge leap from 5.x. For anyone curious, here is a good review of improvements in KiCad 6 : https://techexplorations.com/blog/kicad/kicad-6-review-new-a...
Something makes me doubt you could point out any society in history where the rich and well-connected are treated like everyone else. Not to say I think this is necessarily a good thing (or necessarily a bad thing, either) but them's the rules of the world.
Well, it seems hospital systems are more than happy to fire their staff if they aren't vaccinated, so there must not be much of a shortage.

And the point is Omicron is largely benign, which is reflected in data at this point.

There's no need for 95%+ of people who catch it to go to the hospital. Look at the South African data... Hospitalizations are order of magnitude below cases with omicron, vs Delta.

But single variable policy
proponents, like you appear to be, don't care about the facts or the science, just number of cases.

Personally I'd rather advocate for policy that looks at the actual data in regards to health outcomes, as well as other variables that take into account second order effects of any policy. That's called following the science.

Covid extremists are the religious ones at this point. I'm glad society is finally rejecting their failed views and authoritarian virtue signaling. Of which has made 0 difference state by state in the US, by and large. Check FL or TX vs CA or NY (e.g. the data, the science).

We're living in a bizarro world where these people think they have the scientific high ground, but are actually following mass group think/bubble mentality and ignoring anything beyond case counts.
Yep, that's what I'm talking about. Those things are important negative space. What would you get, one more apartment per floor? Let's not crawl over each other like ants.
If our vertices are (service, call) tuples, then a cycle seems clearly to be breakage. But if vertices are simply services, that's not necessarily the case, is it?
Yes, this is obviously more efficient. And hence contrary to the purpose of daily stand ups which is to waste everyone’s time to make the manager feel empowered and remind the slaves who owns them.
Mailcow enables greylisting too and they highly suggest not to disable it...but I really can't see a valid reason for it in the first place.

You realize that this would mean the three residents would have to pay more for their unit, right? It isn’t just developers “milking” condo buyers or tenants. It has to do with efficiency.

attrs is not “relatively unknown” as Python libraries go.

There have been conventional, SFW aliases for the punny ones for...a long time.
Just curious what index funds are you invested in?
This is actually a good idea. If you find a niche where there is a market but the the existing apps are of low quality you may be a winner. I have seen on PH a list of products which have high number of users but low rating (I believe it is because of low quality of the app)
Not in the cars I drove. Also all the nav screens I've seen were low contrast so they are almost invisible in the peripheral vision, which is not very sensitive to color. I suppose, if Tesla has high contrast, jerking nav map it's fine because there is no other place to show directions (even S and X don't have HUD, so probably no navigation in the dashboard too?) and it might want to attract the driver to the changes in the route.
That’s one of the great things about the ADA: Anna compaction can help almost anyone. Common examples are crash bars and ramps, but this is an example of another group of accommodations with wider scope.
Nail on the head for ADHD hyperfocus. Studying for exams in university I could easily go for 10 straight hours, forgetting to eat in the interim, if I found the course enjoyable.
same, awful design
This is an excellent guide. Some thoughts on ADHD as a social phenomenon:

I’ve seen more comments on HN recently about the disorder, and people sharing their experiences. I personally believe that it’s more commonplace than seen, and my personal theory is that maybe many people have it on the lower end of the spectrum, and thus are high functioning.

But I’m also wondering that if the characteristic symptoms of ADHD also exist beyond the neurological condition and maybe people who have other disorders might also experience ADHD symptoms and thus self-diagnose it?

In my own limited experience, the common diagnostic process seems awfully lax, while the rigorous version takes hours and costs thousands to undertake. So could there also be a lot of people being misdiagnosed?

I’m also wondering if it’s possible to manifest ADHD symptoms or even start thinking like someone with it, due to the environmental factors of modern life, specifically continuous attention-diverting digital lifestyles.

Finally, for whatever reason ADHD is currently the internet condition en vogue, much like self-diagnosing Asperger’s was in the 2000s and identifying as an introvert was a few years ago, see this recent tweet skewering a fatuous graphic attributing a common non-ADHD related issue to ADHD:

One thing running your own SMTP/IMAP protects you from is faceless lockouts. My partner was locked out of her Hotmail account and no matter how much evidence she provided Microsoft's shame-faced automated system refused to give her access. No court of appeal, nothing. Turns out she has an important email regarding her Indefinite Leave to Remain in the account containing a UAN she now needs access to in order to apply for a Biometric Residence Card to ensure she can continue to work in the UK. Fuck big email providers, I say. Legislation needs to be passed to make them accountable when locking-out users from their accounts.
Hi, thanks for the feedback.

My definition of retirement does not mean stop working. In fact working is encouraged as long as you enjoy it.

I have actually addressed the issue of work on the website, in "What to do after retirement?" section.
I am sorry to hear about your productivity issues. I also experienced some slowness in recent builds, although I think our issues are not directly related, since I primarily use IntelliJ IDEA and not PyCharm. Following a recent issue I encountered on JDK 17, I was also advised to downgrade to JDK 11. [1] I think maybe they are waiting until JDK 17 is more stable for release, but anecdotally speaking, JDK 17 runs pretty well for me on osx-aarch64, save for a few minor hiccups. If the issue you are experiencing is a persistent one, you might also consider reporting a performance problem [2].

I've heard good things about JetBrains Fleet. [3] Although it has not yet been released, it seems to have many of the same features as the full IDEs and is more responsive in the editor department. Anyhow, I hope your experience improves and you have a Merry Christmas as well!

The 1% VSCode/Vim/emacs doesn't do is exactly why I use IntelliJ and PyCharm. Refactoring, code analysis and debugger integration is lightyears ahead of the competition in my experience.

It's up to you to decide if Jetbrains' stack is right for you or not. For many simple projects, it's really not worth the hassle. Just because you don't use the extra features doesn't mean nobody else does.
There's a related tangent here; Van Halen's "No Brown M&M's backstage!" clause in their venue contract. Here's one link:

Basically, if they found brown M&M's backstage, it meant that the venue organizers did not read their audio / stage setup requirements, and that everything needed to be examined with a fine toothed comb.
I guess I want you to ease up on the China comments. I realize you surely don't intend it that way, but your comments are coming across as those of someone with a fixed nationalistic agenda. You're far from the only one, but it's really destructive.
My main business, coalitiontechnologies.com, taught me those areas of business.

I learned marketing working for another digital agency 15 years ago, recruiting I just carefully studied the market for years and tried and failed lots of time to learn how it worked, accounting I took two courses in, legal I learned dealing with several small claims and a couple of superior court suits plus a great class, management I learned from Manager Tools podcast and years of trial and error.

My market research was just observing how hard it is to find good construction trades help and then trying to put up some marketing to see if we got leads.
Inattentiveness is only a very small part of ADHD (and the name ADHD itself is very outdated and doesn't capture at all what this is about). It's more common in children to be inattentiveness (ADHD-PI) but goes away with adulthood. But ADHD is also a spectrum, so some people have it worse in X but very mild (or not at all) in Y.

For me it's more emotional restless-ness, overthinking (esp. what people think about me and self-criticism), oversharing of whatever I am currently focused on (like writing this comment), being late because I constantly forget to account for something obvious like walking time, and a strong "mental barrier" of doing things that I don't want to do, or don't have consequences for not doing. Kind of like a self-drive that only exists when

a) I really really want to do it, but then I have to do it right now because I can't focus on anything else. I want to drop everything I'm doing and only do that instead.

b) there is some external consequence like a deadline driving me to do it.

For example: My apartment has a stack of unopened amazon boxes that I only open when I need the item inside (no consequence of not doing it). But when a task has a deadline, or when I feel that my not-doing something would start to get people angry at me, I'll hyperfocus and rush it out in no time. Or dishes starting to get smelly (consequence), but a pile of washed clothes stays untouched (no consequence) until I need a shirt from that pile.

When I was a child (untreated) I barely ever did my homework or studied, copied all the time from classmates, "daydreamed" and was in my head most of the time instead of listening to the teacher, or talking to my classmates.

ADHD people (from my experience) are also very chatty, jump seemingly random from topic to topic and have a high energy way of writing text messages back and forth, like chopping a longer topic up into many small messages instead of writing longer sentences. We just want to share what we have in our head with someone right now

I'd recommend watching this playlist by Dr. Berkley, even if just the first 1-2 videos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wg6cfsnmqyg&list=PLzBixSjmbc...
Based on my own experiences (around same age) and discussions with friends, the depth of your financial education is the exception. The checkbook one comes up a regularly, while loans and interest rates come up in the context of math classes.

I guess I'd also be curious how deep those topics went. Like for apartment leases, notions of how to find out tenants rights in your area and how to push back on bad landlords. For budgets, what do you do if you can't make a budget work. Things to watch out for when considering employers and common scams.

A lot of this stuff I was able to pick up over the years but if you get screwed early on it can really affect your life trajectory. Sources seem less objective than when I was learning this stuff.

If you're first gen semi-wealthy - say a SWE in the valley - there's a whole other education that's necessary... I have talked to many SWEs that don't understand their comp.
Lovely! Thanks for buliding it.

Yeah that's not going to happen unless you can convince everyone to implement a 1 world government.
Primary care docs should be able to walk with you on this. After pushing my doc a little bit, he gave me a questionnaire to complete and two weeks later I was starting different medications. There are all kinds of storied on reddit.com/r/adhd of people having issues with their doc. A psychiatrist would have a deeper expertise in managing ADHD if you can get access to one.
That looks very similar to the Retire 35 app in terms of functionality.

You're not wrong, but it is still wrong to claim blame for specific events without evidence. The comment you are replying to clearly asked for specifics.
> It's also kinda unfair to expect people to have seen Omikron coming

Perhaps, it's unfair that the government is obligating severe COVID restrictions on travel for citizens (and non-citizens, alike) in a country with 80+% vaccination rates for a disease that's essentially endemic at this point. NZ seems to be just pushing the problem down the line at this point. There will never be a time where they can just open without any cases so why are they still so incredibly restrictive?

FWIW: I am not a NZer, I don't plan to visit NZ any time soon, and I'll admit I'm relatively unversed on the political situation in NZ.
The thing that really clicked for me and lead to me getting my own diagnosis was this: a lot of the way in which we talk about ADHD is from the perspective of those around the person, rather than the person itself. I never really identified with the typical way ADHD is talked about. Attention deficit? I don't have an attention deficit, I can pay way too much attention, and often am, at the wrong thing, and cannot redirect it to what is actually important. Same thing, but two different perspectives. It may seem like I can't focus to an outside observer, but that's not how I experience it at all.

This is not true. Large language models have cracked the "multiple degrees of semantic relation" problem. I'd put money on gpt-3 being able to handle any particular problem you put forward, with the caveat being that multiple passes and diligent work with prompt construction will be needed more often than not (a single pass naive zero-shot might occasionally succeed, but a generalized sequence of passes can solve almost any problem class you care to define.)
