That's a big assumption though. Some places had death rates decline for many 'normal' causes of death.

Suicide, flu and car crashes caused less deaths than usual where I am, and the lockdowns led a negative value for 'excess deaths'. I'm in New Zealand.
For what it's worth, I didn't find your suggestions bad and I appreciate them.

I don't suffer from depression or mental health issues, I just find exorcising boring and don't have the motivation for it. There's plenty of things I'd rather be doing, it's not that I'm a coach potato watching TV all day long :)
That is, indeed the feature I was describing. I hope iOS doing it means Android will follow suit soon.
Just use ddg. By nowadays its just better.
This is my list:

- Russia invades Ukraine.

- Economy gets worse.

- Unemployment or sub-employment get worse.

- There will be more scams involving Web3.

- There will be new scams involving Metaverse.

- People will be pushed into this Metaverse crap.

- Covid19 pandemic declared endemic.

- People are forced to take Covid19 vaccines so Big Pharma can make more profit.

- Surveillance will increase for the sake of safety.

- Democratic governments will accelerate towards totalitarianism.

- Cold war between US and China becomes official.

- The riches get richer.

- The poor get poorer.

- The number of climate disasters will increase.

- The number of people who die from hunger and preventable diseases will increase.
Seems a perfect answer to me. Reading people dissecting and communicating things the way you just did is what I find among the best pleasures in the world, only available on this website.
What do you mean by "document-oriented google Sheets" - could you specify? I'm curious
If you want to test that “it adds X entries” then write the test to add X entries from a clean state, then add another X entries and check it is done correctly. You don’t need to rely on a dirty start state to do that.
> the jog wheel was brilliant for email navigation

The experience of using one was always great. They took usability very seriously in a market that was easily impressed with 3D accelerated transitions.

What I really liked was having all messaging streams converging into a single app. Now I need to keep two Outlook windows (email and calendar) along with another for Teams and monitor stuff happening from all sides, as if I’m NORAD for messages.
I find that argument being thrown around once in a while, but let me ask you this. Why are we spending billions of dollars in research that we can vaguely hope to reach human perception levels in one distant day. This whole thing is just not worth it. That's why I said especially for dense urban traffic driving, we need extra sensing, and need from the environment so it can help the car. Imagine if the car knew there is nothing coming from a junction we don't need to stop all the way etc.

Agreed, the use of stats is so terrible. I love this one: "43% report driving more once they go electric." So the people who buy these things end up using them? How is this an indictment of electric cars?

It's rather unfortunate, because there is a really interesting cost-benefit analysis to be performed that compares the carbon footprint of assembling a new Nissan Leaf against the carbon footprint of driving your Civic for another 5-10 years. The analysis would have to be parameterized by the gas-mileage and age of your current car, the type of electric you intend on replacing it with, the carbon footprint of electricity in your region, and how much you drive.

We'll have to find a pundit who isn't innumerate to write it.
Someone posted "The bicycle is the slow death of the planet" not so long ago. It's not meant to be taken literally, but this is not very far from some people's line of thinking.
I would assume tribalism comes from conflict over limited resources, and not because everyone failed to agree on a logo. I would also assume that there are forces that benefit and profit from fomenting and hosting this "bickering" and simply draping some new bunting over the whole mess isn't going to change much.
The guy you're talking to views the world through a lens of 'capitalism vs [utopian vision]', capitalism being everything wrong with status-quo economics. Don't waste your time suggesting practicalities.
That seems to be the consensus. They aren’t the car a car enthusiast would want but a commuter would love.
I took Wellbutrin for several months. As mentioned, the effects were subtle for me. The pill isn't going to do the work for you, just grease the wheels a bit. You should probably give it 3 months before quitting.

I'm currently on Adderall. If you have ADHD, it has more benefits than drawbacks in my opinion, and the effects are not as subtle. It does give you focus for tedious tasks, though it's up to you to assure that those tedious tasks are actually important and not a rabbit hole.

Neither drug is going to make you stop browsing Reddit or HN. If you want to reduce browsing Reddit, turn off all the default subs and then subscribe to specialized subs catered to real, specific interests of yours. You will not miss the default subs. HN is only good for about 1 page usually, then it's scraping the bottom of the barrel.

If you want to do more exercise/coding/tidying up/etc. set a 5 minute timer, do at least that much work on that, then reward yourself with some HN. You'll find that starting the activity is the hardest part.

Re: weight loss, you can't outrun your own fork. All the fad diets have a kernel of truth to them, a lesson to apply or discard in your own life. Intermittent fasting is quite effective IME. Besides calorie reduction, it also resets your hunger signals. For me, it got me over this irrational fear of being hungry that I had, and also revealed just how much I was eating out of boredom rather than hunger. Also, you have to pick a problem and focus on it. Mitigate the weight situation, but don't force yourself to fight a 2 or 3 front war.

If you have ADHD, you should be on an ADHD med, unless you literally can't trust yourself to take only one pill a day.

If you have treatment-resistant depression, you can also look into ketamine, either intravenous or now intra-nasal. Pay the price to have it administered professionally, as it's not a good idea to develop a black-market hookup for something so addictive.

Here's a simple trick - stop shifting the blame on other people.

I really don't get your defeatist attitude:

1. You don't have the willpower to stop eating sugary stuff

2. You don't have the willpower to have a conversation with your spouse to stop buying sugary crap

3. Barring 1 or 2, you aren't talking to your kids to convince them to stop demanding less sugary stuff or aren't presenting them with tasty alternatives.

I'm sure in response to this I'll get a lot of angry replies to the tune of "it's not so simple" or "I don't have enough time for that" or "willpower theory is a myth".
I also recommend buying a paper copy of the Family Medical Guide by the American Medical Association

mostly L1 data-cache, yea (50% of peak BW). Which is a good sign for an interpreted ISA.
From direct accounts, the figure is likely low. A good attorney friend has a friend who used to be one of the sharpest and most witty attorneys he knew. Months after a "mild case" (no hospitalization), the friend is not all there, fading in and out - he'll literally fade in and make a witty comment almost like before, then seconds later not remember it..., and hasn't been able to get back to work. That sounds like a lot more than 10 points, more like 140->95.

Even if the effects are temporary, and even if it's "only five points", I'm not interested in that risk, and you shouldn't be either.
I agree that Tesla isn’t immune to the same mechanics of supply and demand that make dealerships do these markups, but I think it’s important to note that Tesla honors the price of the car from the time you placed the order. I ordered a Model 3 in October and the price of the car has increased since I placed that order, but I’ll still be paying the original price when I take delivery. I see that as a positive over what this article is saying, which is that the dealership hit reservation holders with a sudden markup, which probably wouldn’t have happened without the dealership as a middleman between Ford and the buyers.
Absolutely no inflation ever is a bad thing - see the Great Depression.
A funny thing is that the spammers are adapting to this. I found a bunch of websites that all had "reddit" in the title a while back, because that is something people add to filter out the spam.

Not being violent is the simplest and most ethical thing one can do. How we excuse it in others is beyond my comprehension.
Their infographics convince me that they understand the statistics. But one of the key issues here is that the statistics are radically counterintuitive in a way that most people don't understand - the patients, the testing companies, and even some medical staff all incorrectly believe that a positive test for a rare condition means you probably have the condition.
Really depends. Our company is entirely Mac. Everything “just works” wirelessly. Like AirPlay for conference rooms, my external monitor is USB-C, etc. No dongles necessary. It’s only when going to other clients where I need to carry around dongles because they don’t support AirPlay or their Wifi network requires several days advanced notice and a urine test before you can get access.
Becoming a "good writer", like becoming a good anything, is a matter of practice and study, of learning to use the tools which language provides. The ability to construct well-formed long sentences is one such tool. It may take time and effort before you can use it effectively, but this is the case with most tools which are worth using. To reject this tool because you are afraid you may use it badly is to needlessly limit what you are able to do.

This might be a worthwhile trade if you really could improve your text by only using short sentences, but sadly, you cannot. The central unit of meaning in written text is not the sentence, it is the paragraph. If you take a sentence that is long, discursive, incoherent and ill-formed, and break it into short sentences, this will not magically resolve all other things that are wrong with it. Fixing the text entails organising its elements so that they develop logically. If they are entertaining, rhythmically varied or otherwise engaging to read, so much the better, but the primary challenge is to organise what is said. If you can do that when it comes to the relationship between your sentences, then it's not any harder to do it with the clauses in a longer sentence. And if you can't, your prose will still be bad.
I feel my attention at work has gotten worse, the ability to focus has decreased. Sure, part of it is caused by my phone (gotta keep the music/background noise going oh and might as well glance at reddit) but ALOT of it is being a senior engineer.

It is my place to be asked questions throughout the day and I'd rather be asked questions than not. It takes me out of the zone and Sometimes it feels as though my mind is juggling 3+ tasks at once because of the questions I've been asked. I've learned through interaction with reality that some programmers need a bit more guidance when it comes to tasks, some will dig down the correct paths, some will dig down the incorrect paths, and some will just stop and wait for help (which is ok). I feel that at times I've done a poor job of guiding some people.

There have been days where I might actually start work on my individual tasks 5-6 hours into the day and staying late after everyone leaves is key to getting back in the zone and solving a problem.
Maybe deliver high quality results for adblock users only. Lower server costs for adblock users while maximizing ad-revenue for users without adblock. Win-win.
> Within a week, tens of thousands of SEO specialists will be on the case, reverse-engineering the magic and figuring out how to get their crappy sites back to the top of the rankings.

The Google competitor will have a human nuke their entire domain or business (based on a manual index of banned products/brands) from the search results forever, or have by default a bias against ad-filled websites which would remove any commercial incentive for those websites to exist in the first place.
Before the pandemic, one of my friends used to have a hobby of going to bars and conventions and AirDropping pictures of ducks to strangers who left their AirDrop turned on.
Can someone provide some explicit search queries so we can see the bad examples? Lots of criticism is being doled out in that thread without an actual example to see for myself.
Just researched good/quality crafting printers yesterday. Search results were mostly blogs and crappy websites that offered obviously no insights but were just SEO optimized to direct you to their Amazon affiliate links. Especially sad since those affiliate links to Amazon mostly resulted in "This product is currently not available" sites.

Repeated my search on Youtube to find reviews or unboxing. Most video search results were basically "Youtube SEO" again - the most viewed/top-ranked videos did never show a single actual print run or even the printer available. It was mostly marketing websites turned into video (slowly scrolling/moving over product description or pictures clearly taken from the web). And of course, affiliate links in the description.

The web has become a crappy place to research products as long as money can be made with those through affiliations. I wonder if outlawing affiliate marketing would make the world a better place.

P.S: Whats most ridiculous about my Youtube Printer research experience, the best and most helpful video was a sales video from a home shopping TV station [0], where they actually showed some printing action and handling of one of the models I was interested in.

I'd argue those issues are very well researched and material science fixed these.
I began to notice some time ago that Google basically disregards my query, and fixates on the lowest common denominator. So, recently I was trying to search for a particular event or quote or something related to some famous person. But no matter how I worded the query, Google ignored everything but the person's name, and returned only fluffy flattering results about the person from popular magazine sites.

So I tried Bing, and the thing I was looking for was result #1. Like how it used to be with Google. So I switched to Bing.

Now after a few weeks of that, I see that Bing does the exact same thing much of the time. Totally different queries + same general subject = identical top ten results.

So. Anyone fancy creating the 2022 version of what Google was in 1998?
My wife and I went through this a couple of years ago, with a 10 week NIPT calling a rare trisomy (chr 9), which is always fatal within a few weeks of birth.

It was absolute hell. The key problem here is the waiting and uncertainty. You have the NIPT at 10w, but you can’t have the amniocentesis until several weeks later. When that came back fine, there were questions about whether it was a “mosaic” meaning only a small proportion of cells are effected. We were only really in the clear after the 20 week ultrasound.

That’s a lot of weeks to be consumed by wondering about whether to terminate the pregnancy, or wait it out for more information. I have a masters in bioinformatics (in genomics!) and my knowledge of stats and the science was next to useless in the face of these decisions.

I know of couples who simply couldn’t deal with this uncertainty and chose to terminate on the basis of this test alone.

Fortunately for us our child was fine and is a perfectly healthy 18 month old now, but I wouldn’t do the rare trisomy test again.
What are people's impressions of Neeva? I just registered and a few searches seem equivalent to Google but it's a lot faster and cleaner.
"Also, though I did install Lynx, this is not a great machine for modern Web surfing (except for ratfactor.com, of course). So it's a pretty distraction-free device."

As an owner of one these ASUS EeePC netbooks I used links (a different text-only browser) in VGA textmode in NetBSD for many years. For the small screen size, the terminal font is easy on the eyes. Lynx is one of the worst text-only browsers, IMHO. For me, staying in textmode prevents distraction. However I am reading from the www in textmode all the time. A large, complex, Javascript-enabled, advertising-sponsored, graphical browser is not necessary. No idea what "modern Web surfing" means but it does not sound like it is worth the time if all it produces is distraction.
Speaking specifically about android mobile I've found minimalist phone to be a really nice tool to cut down on jumping from app to app for hours. First, I just like the aesthetics of it as a launcher and second the built in nag warnings for timing specific app usage make you conscious of your consumption which I think is critical. Having that metric works a lot like tracking calories, it's hard to realize just how much you are consuming without some sort of tracking - at least it is for me.

The fact that it has no icons also helps, it makes it far more arduous to open apps that you might not use a ton or that you don't have a shortcut for in your home screen menu so you tend to start ignoring a lot of little time sinks.
Isn’t the implication obesity + high salt content?
Moral panics also come from normal people who have felt the effect on their and their families' lives. For instance I am neither a prude nor a tea-totaler but I can see how many hours or my own life porn and alcohol have taken, hours that I sure enjoyed but that would have been better and as pleasantly invested in other activities. I know people that have sunk into porn addictions and lost their lives, including any ability to enjoy normal sex. And we all know what an alcoholic looks like. So is the ubiquitous availability of porn a good thing or a bad thing or something with nuance?

If you had a loved one disappear in world of Warcraft or a porn spiral you will start to question whether those are normal things that should remain so openly available without limits.
Books, always having several books available on my Kindle so I can grab it and continue reading instead of consuming social media on my phone. I read 3-4 books at once and don't put pressure on myself to continue reading or finish any book. If I get bored with one just switch to another one.

There is no shortage of book recommendations. I usually get them from people interviewed on podcasts.
Agree this is one of the reasons why I like command line. This and scripting are one of the biggest problems of GUI for me
> OpenDrop automatically sets DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH to look for the Homebrew version. You may need to update the variable yourself if you install the libraries differently.

FYI for those thinking of doing this, and who would implement it as looking in /usr/local - make sure you also search in /opt/homebrew as this is now the default for Homebrew installations on Apple Silicon based Macs.

There’s a level of detail frequently missed when discussing this topic.

Most manufacturers fill their cars with dozens of ECUs (electronic control unit) distributed throughout. Each of these needs a separate microcontroller and runs it’s own custom firmware. As they come from multiple suppliers, these are very hard to integrate and it is nearly impossible to upgrade the firmware.

Teslas’s approach is different. They have 2-3 Large PCBs, each with a single PowerPC master controller and a ton of discrete components which drive the various functions of the car directly.

For example, instead of having an ECU controlling the wiper motor, they drive it directly with a 3-phase circuit right from the main controller board.

This is why Tesla can alter the functionality of nearly anything in their cars with a software update—-all they need to do is rewrite the code for their few PowerPC microcontrollers.

It is brilliant and very unlike the mess the OEMs have, with over 100 separate ECUs all running black box firmware.

This YouTube channel, Ingineerix (https://youtu.be/AVCHC2cw0v0) covers this in great detail. It’s inspiring…
I thought the entire backyard was already brick/pavers? I doubt there are many termites hanging out on top of those waiting for some wood to get a little damp. If it was pressure treated, it should be fine to use those beams as a sort of footer on the pavers "foundation".
If those crappy links have Google ads or analytics then it's absolutely beneficial for Google.
I prefer the results it provides over googles these days. Where it falls short is on maps.
But shouldn't google's page rank find those pages most reputable and list them first?

I wonder if there's a project like sponsorblock, for google search instead of youtube. Basically a centralized community-driven database that blacklists certain urls (timestamps for yt) based on submission & vote. It would be much less of a clear cut than youtube's case, though.

I personally just append `wiki` or `reddit` to queries. Crappy but kinda works.

One useful feature I use before visiting new places is sorting Google Maps reviews and photos by date. I've found Google Maps comments more accurate than TripAdvisor or Airbnb.
Summary of the bug: Exchange tried to store "2201010001" (i.e. date time '22-01-01 00:00) in a 32-bit signed int, but INT_MAX is 2147483647 so the result is a negative number.
Having also read this review ( https://newrepublic.com/article/164688/viral-lab-leak-theory... ), I don’t know which review/scenario to trust, and virology is well outside my area of expertise.
It's irresponsible to report Fentanyl as the number one killer in 18-45 without also reporting COVID is killing more people overall. COVID deniers will latch on to this statistic as evidence that COVID doesn't kill without this caveat.

Contracts have disclosure clauses all the time.

To bring it back to the article at hand, did social media and other tech companies disclose the negative effects of the use of their products in their EULA?

The prohibition by the government of the use of physical force requisite to deprive people of their freedom.

If a distributor of an addiction-forming substance engenders an addiction in customers, is that not utilizing physical force to deprive them of their freedom? Especially if the addictive properties were not disclosed ahead of time.
Every so many years a new platform arrives. The generations built upon it iterate. The later iterations address issues and are considered superior. “The window seal on the driver side no longer potentially develops a leak, the headlight daytime running LED burnt out due to poor semiconductor fab you can see the new part number, the entertainment system revamped to support carplay” etc.

The down side is once they’re mature the body style changes and the cycle repeats.
