I was an ambitious optimist. I had extracted the motor out of my toy at age 5-6, and had learned to run it on batteries with some wire. Understood that one 1.5V battery made it go slow, and two made it fast. And the 9V even faster. Obviously, the wall socket would make it go even faster.

Well, besides the shock, I discovered that wire basically melts with large doses of electricity.
I have a hunch that the fatigue you're encountering is caused by having to make decisions all the time.

I have found it can be helpful to split the task up differently than I otherwise would. In your case for example, I would try writing out all the paragraph headers first, then writing the sub-headers, then the first line for each one. It keeps the tasks short, which means fewer decisions and more process.

Once I'm in that flow, and don't have to stop to make any decisions, it's a great feeling and the work is much more fulfilling. Here's an Alan Watts quote that comes to mind: https://gist.github.com/elliottkember/a00076db27b0008b0cc622...
I have a bipolar diagnosis but with medication I've been symptom free for over 5 years now. For the past two years I've been taking 5mg Lithium Orotate nightly as a supplement to my main medication Lamotrigine [1]. I started taking the Lithium as a prophylactic against dementia. Research has shown that a history of bipolar disorder is associated with significantly higher dementia risk [2-3]. Low-dose lithium has shown promise as being preventative against the progression of dementia [4].

After starting the Lithium Orotate I noticed some subjective improvements in mental clarity and mood within a couple weeks. The effect is very small though and not comparable to that of my main medication. Although it's possible that I'm only experiencing the placebo effect, I suspect that the Lithium actually is helping somewhat.

The 5mg dose in most commercially available Lithium Orotate supplements is a couple orders of magnitude less than the doses typically used to treat bipolar, but I think it would still be good idea to bring it up with a doctor. Also, try to manage your expectations. It's probably not going to change your life all at once, but you may notice some small subjective benefits over the longer term, and the research on low doses of lithium being partially preventative against dementia seems pretty solid.

The latest National Electric Code requires tamper-proof receptacles practically everywhere. See: https://diy.stackexchange.com/questions/13414/are-there-loca...

I guess they wouldn't entirely eliminate this specific problem -- if you were determined to get a plug in halfway and touch one end with a penny, then you could probably pull it off -- but they do make unintentional errors of this variety much less likely.

I replaced all my receptacles with TR versions when I moved in to this house. It takes an afternoon, but it's a good opportunity to make sure they're wired correctly -- you may be surprised to learn that many won't be -- and to replace old, worn-out outlets that present hazards. It's a very easy job for a homeowner, given some basic knowledge about residential wiring that's easily obtained.
Your analogy is not representative of what I posted or what happened in the article.

Nobody did this. I didn't. The posted links didn't. This never happened. Can you point out what you read that made you think this was anyone's point? In fact, the linked article specifically says this isn't the case.
Flickr was perfectly fine for years after the Yahoo! buyout that really made no change besides mandating the usage of a Yahoo! account to log in. I still have my Yahoo! email used just for that (unlike then-competitor hotmail, Yahoo! accounts didn't self-destruct after two weeks of inactivity).

The real damage came later.
As you likely know, but some people replying to you seemingly don’t- lithium orotate is not the same as prescription lithium (carbonate? It’s been a while).

Takes more of the latter form to be effective, and lithium toxicity is no joke- it’s landed a family member (who’s been on it for decades) in the ER multiple times.

Lithium orotate is safe at the doses on the label of otc supplements.

In my experience if has a subtle but distinct effect in terms of reducing anxiety. Particularly if taken with water on an empty stomach. Can’t speak to its effect on bipolar type issues.
Probably if it’s more than 6 calendar months.
I did this when I was 9-10 back in Chennai, India(240V LOL). I picked up my Divider from my camel Geometry box(comes with divider, compass, protractor) and shorted it right across the terminals. All I knew was I was lying 2 feet outing the relay had tripped. Got a mouthful from my parents and went on to become an EE(I still am employed as an EE to this day!). I remember the experience as if it had happened just last month. Fast forward 30 years I caught my 1 year old son trying to put his fingers into a socket. I went ahead and child proofed the entire house. Fast forward, 11 years he wants to learn to solder now. I guess its in the genes.
I like how this article points out the appeals court ruling that the fifth amendment protects against this form of self incrimination

But the Supreme Court reversed it, which could lead some to want to disagree with how the court uses the constitution

But its important to remember that income taxes require a newer amendment to the constitution to begin with

So although the bill of rights (first 10 amendments) was pretty solid, at the time with an understood balance for the society, the appeals court neglected to consider the 16th amendment, which operates outside of that balance. Any amendment can undermine other parts of the constitution or break the point of the whole thing.
Got knocked on my tail by an electric shock as a kid--tried to extract magnets from a broken circular saw. As a precautionary measure, I had plugged it in beforehand to ensure that it really didn't work.

I don't remember anything about the shock other than finding myself on the ground afterwards. It's not implausible that you might move some distance depending how your muscles react.

Never mentioned the experience to my parents, as it did not seem that could possibly lead to any further educational benefits.
IMO the biggest issue with MBTI types is reducing personality traits to exactly 4 dimensions. Why not 3 or 5? It's completely arbitrary.

Many people on social media read only the headline, not the full article. (Including here on HN.)

So, it’s arguable that this should be taken into account by fact checking. A title that is misleading is a problem even if the article body itself is scrupulously accurate, since way more people will see the headline than read the article.

This is known and weaponized. A site will intentionally publish an accurate article with an inaccurate or misleading headline. If it is flagged by fact-checking, they get several more cycles of engagement out of complaining about the “unfair” or “biased” fact check, and especially if they get it reversed, as in this case.

In this case the original headline was “The Study That Convinced the CDC To Support Mask Mandates in Schools Is Junk Science.” That is misleading because a) the CDC considered far more than one study, b) which study “convinced” them is impossible to prove and a matter of opinion, and c) “junk science” is an uninformative pejorative.

If the headline had been “One Study the CDC Referenced When Considering Mask Recommendations Had Problems,” it would have been more accurate and less likely to be flagged. But also less useful to Reason in attracting attention and advancing a narrative.

when i was first exposed to ada, early 1990's, the language was unusable. compile times where excessive (like hours). machines of that era were slow and had small memories (4MB was a common size, and more than 1 CPU was a luxury).

i must also admit, ada was hard. you had to do some mojo just to print out a value ("package int_io is new integer_io blah, blah). it had a standard of a couple of hundred pages that you kept on your desk. and you looked at it on a regular basis. and the compiler was picky (strongly typed).

companies dropped ada because they couldn't hire. C++ people were more available.

my opinion today is ada is relatively small, makes very fast code, and supports all the programming paradigms of C++ in a very sane way.

if the first ada compiler was "ada95" instead of "ada83", it would be very popular. it came out a decade before the world was ready.

Not citizenship but residency, hence e-residency[1]. It actually means you can start a business here and pay your taxes here but you can be anywhere else in the world.

Also went through a pretty traumatic shock that paralyzed me temporarily and had me stuck to 2 metal objects I had grasped with my hands where I ended up closing the circuit.

I was told I screamed at the top of my lungs, to the point where people thought I was joking and started laughing.

The rest is just fun details from this particular trip in 1998 to a developing country in the Balkans: Had it not been for a gentleman who realized I was literally dying and not joking, I'd be dead. He ran toward me and with difficulty and a lot of force removed one of my hands from the metal bar (in the process breaking my wrist). I have zero recollection of screaming, but I was aware and in complete shock and I do remember some kind of yelling or asking for help.

Utter horror is what I recall, but not a ton of detail. (14 years of age, for context - am now twice that)
What I’ve Learned as an Engineer in Colombia Working for a U.S. Startup
The principle of requiring healthcare staff to get the vaccine is already established. Most countries in Europe already do this. This is not the same thing as requiring all employees to be fired if they fail to have a medical procedure that the President deems necessary. Your point, however, is totally anti-science: 500 years ago, would you ask for someone to be fired because they didn't use the appropriate amount of leeches? It is amazing that the people who go on about this kind of thing don't understand basic elements of what science is.

So your employer is allowed to sterilise employees with disabilities? Perhaps only those employees with mental illness? If you question whether this is realistic, this happened in the US 70 years ago, and the very same principle was used to sterilise disabled people en masse. The ends do not justify the means, this is ubermensch ideology (only those who can rise above morality and do things that others are unwilling to do will possess the future...it is madness, it is something that hasn't existed in politics since the 30s...and, to be clear, it existed in the US too).
In this case, we aren’t talking about science though. We are talking about fact checking something that accurately questioned the science.

If what is being spread can’t stand up to questioning, then it’s merits need to be questioned even further.
Great comment. This "ego death" can also be achieved through practices like Atma Vichara. Taking a shroom is catapulting yourself into that state of witnessing. It will definitely come off and the mind will take over, as it was induced artificially, the question is - what are you going to do with yourself during this state?

Defining or, rather, roughly sketching out, a mission might be one way to approach psychedelics. You don't want to follow it to the letter, to avoid self-limits, but at least define your attitude: are you looking for a master, an answer, a resolution? Do you want to feel what's inside of something, i.e. how your reactions are built, where this or that comes from? Just mildly keeping your goal in mind may set you to achieve the right result.

As a quick example of the outcome, at some point I felt my body telling me "man, what are you doing with this e-cigarette? Just stop putting this in me." In a few months I quit for good. Understand this might not be a demon as big as the one causing depression, but maybe this will help? Where did that guy came from?

Trust in scientists is too high when they keep pumping out studies that don't replicate, and don't publish the original data and methods used to reach conclusions.

I wholly trust science that independently replicates and the fact that it's missing from the process means much of what we see is less than wholly trustworthy.
Maybe I'm not the right person to answer this, but I think your question may be too vague.

I am failing to see what the friction is between scheduled tasks and an event sourced system. If a customer were logging in every day at 10am (on a schedule) and issued their own events based on some external state, your system would be none the wiser to the "scheduled" nature of their behavior.

No one will ship spores to California.

I've looked. We tried shrooms once on a whim, in Amsterdam, and while it wasn't that interesting a trip, it did have the side effect of eliminating my wife's OCD for almost a full year. I wish they were easily available. I've even considered driving to that "church" in Oakland to get her something. I don't otherwise have the right kind of friends (or they are quite discrete about it despite my having mentioned it).
The problem with self-medicating lithium is that doses low enough to be harmless were not shown to be effective, and doses proven to be effective are too close to dangerous. The only way to get the dosage right is very careful blood testing.

Go to a doctor, and get set up correctly.

I have been a vim user all my programming life which is not very long. Can you please provide me straight-to-the-point, opinionated, no words twisted, maybe personal reasoning why I should use Emacs over vim?

This is a very honest question.

EDIT: This question is more- what motivates you to be an Emacs-er? Why do you use it? I would love to hear your reasoning behind choosing and sticking with an editor.

Thanks to umanwizard for the answer. Someone else said that it is best to experience it yourself. But you have to understand that mastering a new editor is a non-trivial time commitment. I am willing to put the time and effort given it is worth it. That is what I am trying to find out.

Someone on HN said just some days ago- you cannot simply be a tourist in Emacs and hope to get everything that is good with it.

I guess I will learn both.
I'm gonna at least offer the possibility that this story doesn't have much to do with NFTs at all. Rather, it's just the story of a young BIPOC artist whose art and story are resonating people. After all, she has gotten a lot of recent publicity. I don't purport to know much about art, but it wouldn't be the first time I've been bewildered by its valuation.

That said, "NFT-hype" is almost certainly causing at least some price inflation here, but I don't think the levels of fraud suggested by other commenters are likely.
Not sure why this is getting downvoted - to some degree or another it describes the majority of the crypto enthusiasts I know.

The case study approach is MBA school level good, and to treat security seriously, you need to do case studies and those engagements. The students the author writes about don't seem to understand how good that course is. Sort of a relief blank slate students can't just learn this stuff in a single course, but it also makes me angry that people coming into the field seem this stupid and lazy. When you imagine not ever having been any sort of interested hacker and working in security, without actual tech and architecture skills, it's a checkbox filling job, typically when you are young enough to accept risk you cannot understand.

I recently saw this in a certain big-n consulting firm's security risk assessment, which was clearly done by a young grad, and it had been filled out to specifically lie about the controls and levels of assurance in a system that was part of a massive health initiative. If anyone discovered it (we did), the consulting firm could fire the person who was too inexperienced to have had the integrity to present the real findings to a client who was also engaged in what was essentially risk fraud, if there were such a thing. But it was obviously on purpose.

For older experts working with this new cohort, I'd recommend that you understand that incompetence is a strategy for them, as if you present as knowledgable, you can be held accountable for errors and omissions, where if you are obviously ignorant, you can just shrug and fail upwards and let the nerds take the fall. If it's not explicitly illegal with consequences to misrepresent something, expect it. The reason many milennials seem so feckless is because being useless is how they get others to do things for them, and this is an actual life strategy. In security consulting, you deal with IT project managers like this all the time. Professional values like competence, integrity, and polish that I think many senior technologists value have been replaced with a kind of formlessness and repulsive avoidance of percieved conflict, and addressing it directly is an unforgivable humiliation. Non-technologists (people who don't do or make) mostly exist in an infinite game of musical chairs, so the students in this case may have been exercising a conscientiously cultivated and refined ability to avoid responsibility.

This course material is precisely what I would expect someone in the field to understand, though I think the only way to understand it is to develop tools the students don't have, which is an emphasis on physical domain competence. The good news is they create a lot of additional work for the competent, but the bad news is, they will rot the organizations they attach themselves to. :)
