Having sleep issues, I set up a Zoom H4N pro inside a 1meter cardboard box to track low frequency (sub base) noise disturbances and was blown away. Tracked many culprits down and still working on a few (need new windows and pushing landlord upon that). But instances of say another flat up in the wee hours banging about, you get a loud thud, you awake and none the wise and with my setup, was not only able to identify that but have evidence to prove that. Even had instance of waking up chocking, which was again due to a short loud thud noise disturbance by another flat.

Equally, noticed changes in flight paths by local airport are seeing some flights use the flight corridor (flying over the country so not originating or departing) at night that also cause resonance in the building.

For my part, I've got insulation, added sound dampening to curtail resonance and some frequencies and sound proofing to best I can. Though low frequency noise is hard to cut out beyond source due to the wavelength and a 100mhz low frequency noise you feel( well I do) and that's a 4 meter long soundwave. So hard to block fully, hence rubber dampening strips to curtail harmonic resonance with the building and in this case, my bedroom which is 4 meters in length.

Sleep is totally very important for physical and mental health and as somebody who is autistic spectrum, it is key to have a routine with sleep playing a huge factor in this.

But I highly recommend recording you night and playing it back and analyzing it with something that you can do spectrum analysis. As seeing a noise trigger you into breathing difficulties, or heart palpitations, or snoring is not good for ones health and being able to identify the issues and address them goes a huge way. Not all issues you can address thru the process's at hand afforded you, but many can and proof is a great asset in progressing that. Not sure if phone best tool to do that as not had great luck myself with those for tracking noise issues, unless blatantly continuous and loud due to microphone's and noise cancelation in such devices as well as varying quality of devices. Equally recording low frequency sounds is not the easiest and in my case, a field recorder inside a box has done the trick nicely, though it is an area of experimentation/learning for myself and still something that may be a better solution. But for me as I had a field recorder, a large cardboard box was a nice cheap modification that did the trick good enough.
> is it that society is increasingly failing to prosecute crime?

Depends on the society. The US has an awful lot of people in jail.

However, society in general is fairly universally failing to prosecute certain classes of crime - ones where rich people steal from poor people.

It is the unevenness of prosecution that enrages people. A rich kid can rape an unconscious woman and leave her in a dumpster, and get no jail time, whereas someone can go to jail for five years for voting as a felon, not deliberately simply because she didn't know that the US disenfranchises criminals for life in many states.

I don't go back and replay any of the sandbox games I've completed, and that's very likely to include Cyberpunk. By the time I finished this game in detail I had more than enough, which is usual for these behemoths. The dozens and dozens of almost identical side missions were a lot of fun for a while but a slog by the end. I did enjoy the overall game. Same with Ghost of Tsushima and RDR2. But enough is enough. There's just too much else out there to sample.

Are many of you getting a lot of replay value from the big sandboxes?
It has been obvious to me for a while that Pinboard is sort of a dying product. It seems great for what it does but as open source solutions fill in the gaps it becomes pointless. Now if someone will make a pass-like pinboard app that syncs with Git using markdown files, that would be slick as can be. Tired or solutions that want to use SQL for storage.

For anyone reading this, I don't know what exactly but there's something between being geeky and loving to snowboard. Writing this as a senior dev: if you ever find a possibility to snowboard, DO IT.

My best works always come out after a hardcore day of snowboarding (approaching 3000 kcals) then working on my computer sipping some espresso. I firmly believe there is something neurologically triggering between snowboarding and creative/engineer-mindset thinking. I know this is anectodal and definitely not scientific, but worth giving a shot.

Why would you presume that individuals share blame or benefit with their groups? If one member of a group acts poorly, is it fair to penalize another member of that group? If one member of a group is privileged, is it fair to penalize a non-privileged member of that group to "even out" the groups?
> For one thing, I wouldn't necessarily consider Autism or Aspergers a mental health condition.

Let's put aside all of the questions of the source's validity and assume this is true.

What the hell should anyone do about it?

You have to remember that you, the individual, have absolutely zero power whatsoever to make any sort of significant change. No matter what, anything you do to fight these types of systems will just make you look like a worse person, while changing nothing. Mapping out the possibilities of outcomes:

- You fight the system, win and become known (not a good thing, because remember you don't have any power to make a societal change!) or lose and not get into the college you want

- You play to the system, and it either doesn't work (same situation you were in before doing any action) or it does work (you get in!).

There is no logical scenario where you should do ANYTHING other than play into the system. So put down that 1% Hispanic.

Why not design affirmative action based on generational economic status regardless of race? This is lazy, vote-bank appeasing policy making.
Setting value judgments about this stuff aside, I'm laughing just thinking about the logistical & administrative nightmare that would result from an admissions department actually trying to verify student-provided race & ethnicity with any degree of rigor. Hiring genealogists to investigate and verify family ancestors. Upgrading department policies, procedures, and facilities to process DNA samples. Providing an appeals process for and handling student protests of the committee's assessment of their race. Schools are already so bad at IT, admin, etc, can you even imagine how much effort they would have to put in to make something like this work.

There are safer and more convenient passwordless authentication than this: crypto wallets (Metamask, Phantom, Terra Wallet just to name a few). It's all about the same, the user is prompted to sign a message with his private key, which can be verified on the back-end (and before someone asks: it doesn't involve a transaction with any blockchain thus is free and immediate).
People get “competitive” over scarce resources. I wonder if an alternative way to address systemic issues from things like what’s suspected by OP here is expansion. Colleges could increase their enrollments if their endowments similarly expanded. Further, make lists like those mentioned here bigger-especially easy if the financial costs with the list are negligible (not saying it is).

I realize this may not be feasible. But being a growing society does come with benefits.

Not OP, but if we accept the common definition of racism as "prejudice or discrimination against a person or people on the basis of their membership of a particular racial or ethnic group"

And then now define a new term, "reverse racism" to mean a better/lesser quality of racism based on which racial or ethnic group it originates from, you are being racist in your very definition.

It is as ridiculous as a square circle.
> As the article hints at, our view of pre-marital sex has never been more positive.

Depends how you define "positive": Sure, it's not so much condemned on puritanical grounds any more (at least not openly). But if many of the kinds of (i.e. young, single) people who used to have lots of it are now all "meh" about it, then that's not much of a "positive view", now is it?

I read that Flutter is biased towards Android and that iOS support therefore falters.

I've therefore decided to write my iOS app in Xamarin.iOS, instead of a cross-platform solution like Xamarin.Forms or Flutter. The Xamarin.Android version already works perfectly, but my attempt at a Xamarin.Forms version had dismal performance and simply couldn't match the native Android version.

As a non-athletic native Floridian who made some adventurous friends, I started skiing at 38 by tagging along when some went on a ski trip (Utah.) Knowing my deficits, I signed up for lessons all six days of the trip, and could hockey stop by the end of the trip. For the next five years, I made sure to take at least one lesson day on every ski trip. I agree with the notion of staying out of unacceptable failure states. I managed that by having experienced guides with me at all times. My favorite piece of advice came from the instructor on day 1: 'Skiing is like dancing with gravity, and the mountain always leads.'

Reading these comments is forehead slap inducing. People think that just because something is mental that it has to do with your mindset, your parents, your this your that.

When a dude can run faster than other people, it’s written off as genetics. When someone is resilient to depression, it’s anything other than genetics. Both cases are the same: it’s just biological.

I’ve been suffering super hard with depression recently and it’s made something clear to me: your mindset is bullshit. It might tip things one way or another but the actual mechanisms of depression will change your life. Everyone will be super humbled when we figure out how to turn off depression, and everyone gets it and everyone experienced on average a 50% boost to their intelligence and productivity. They will be humbled because they will realize that all of that relative suffering was totally pointless and for no other reason than a quirk of evolution. And that some people had it good for absolutely no reason. But it’s exciting to know that this day will come and it can’t come fast enough for me!
Can't recommend a location as it purely depends on where you are but look for places:

- that does snowboard rentals so that you can try before you buy (definitely buy after you're certain that you'll keep doing it)

- that has nice easy pistes for beginners

- has good, certified instructors (don't try to learn it yourself)

- nice weather and powder snow with nice resorts: you should enjoy the whole thing after all!

Sure, I’d like to disagree with you on your main point and get your thoughts on whether legal protest can be effective and applicable in all reasonable cases. Like this one.

But instead of doing that, I’ll ask a question: were the BLM protests in 20/21 in the USA/Canada legally sanctioned? And if they were, did they not widely violate those sanctions?

This was a peaceful protest at the end of the day. It wasn’t legal, but when you’re protesting the removal of freedoms due to a lockdown that is itself the object of your grievance, I’m not sure they could secure the means to legally protest at scale.

There certainly are. But it's pretty clear that isn't what was being talked about in the original article as the person in question was university student who was writing papers and having an extended conversation with the author of the article.

> Sure, sometimes it's just "that person has weird behaviours"

I don't think that's quite the right way to look at it. This is true on a surface level, but I think there is quite a fundamental difference in cognitive processing going on under the surface. And FWIW, a lot of those differences in thinking are shared between those who are better at communicating and those for whom that is a real struggle.

But it's not quite that simple, is it?

You can change the culture of a child by forcibly separating them from their parents, putting them in a boarding school, beating them when they try to speak their mother tongue with other children, and so on, methods that have been successfully applied in Australia and Canada, I believe. Changing the culture of an adult is more difficult, though they may have tried similar methods rather more recently in ... you know where.

You can to a certain extent change your "race" simply by changing your dress, hairstyle and name, provided your physical appearance is roughtly consistent with several "races", which is not an unusual situation in many of the societies in which "race" is a thing.

[1] For example using regex to color syntax. Reasonably fast yes, but fails in any moderately complex scenario.
What do you aim to achieve by tackling the problem?
My priority is color accuracy, via hardware calibration (LUT) (no loss of gradations by OS-level or GPU-level mappings). I’d rather have an accurate sRGB display than a not-quite-accurate P3 (or, worse, "natural" wide gamut) display. Also, to display sRGB images (still the large majority of what’s out there) accurately on a wide-gamut system, you need 10-bit color depth at the OS/GPU level to not lose/distort gradations.
