And where do you imagine this "mind" exists which is separate from physical reality for it to exist while "nothing is physically wrong"?

The answer of course, is that there is no such thing. Perhaps the fatigue/depression is due to issues with neurotransmitters or the organs that regulate them, neurons, blood oxygen levels, blood-brain barrier issues, brain structure, nerves in other parts of the body, endocrine function, etc.

If we figured out tomorrow that we could treat it with an injection of B vitamins or a pill of serotonin or a session of magnetic therapy or a fecal transplant to change the patient's gut microbiome or whatever new thing, then you could easily point to the "physically wrong" thing which was causing it. But treating "the mind" as a separate, non-physical thing is no different than suggesting some other supernatural, non-physical thing like God or spirits or curses is causing it.

"Hydration", or "8 glasses of water a day" is another one.

Your kidneys work, if you aren't thirsty (barring certain medical conditions) you don't need to drink water.

There's no such thing as "dehydration without being thirsty" on a routine basis. You'll develop a pretty powerful thirst at 2% water depletion, and for most healthy adults you need to see 4% or more for negative effects.

It's the same thing with the webcams on the M1 Macs.

Comparing my 2015 Macbook Pro and my 2021 Macbook Pro, I can say that they both have crappy webcams. The 2015 has a somewhat grainy, high contrast look. The 2021 webcam has extreme smoothing applied, to the point where my facial hair looks like it's painted on. The result is that my face always looks blurry. There are also weird movement glitches that are probably caused by temporal smoothing.

From a distance, the pictures from the new webcams look better. But up close it's frustrating that my face is always blurry.
I'd argue there are better API patterns for this though -- keeping in mind this values code readability (and correctness) over micro-optimization:

.setPriceInCents(100);
.setMassInKilograms(2);
.setTimeoutInMilliseconds(300);

or

.calculate({
priceInCents = 100,
massInKilograms: 2,
timeoutInMilliseconds: 300,
});
> The best way to level up is to code.

Up to a point, yes. But beyond that point, in my experience, a deliberate study of software architecture is required to move forward. That and mentorship/code reviews by people who have a deeper appreciation of software architecture.

You start by wanting to learn how to code, then you write a lot of code, then you progress by learning how to write less code and less complex code.

"Freedom fries" was always considered a joke and I never heard anyone ever use it except with dripping sarcasm. Everyone knew it was a joke from the very beginning.

It also occurred when it was clear that with the emotions of 9/11 passed, that we had no real reason to invade Iraq other than a very loose set of connections and assumptions with very little hard evidence. I was in high school at the time of the Iraq war and anti-war sentiment was strong (granted, I was also in my "rebellious phase" though I still hold to those opinions). Bands like System of a Down and A Perfect Circle had several anti-war protest songs.

For the record, most people don't even say "French fries", you just say "fries" or specify the other kids of fries like "waffle fries" or "crinkle fries." French fries are implied by "fries".
what you are suggesting is we should not fight for basic human rights and give everyone equal opportunity to live (they haven't chose to be born, so why not give them at least a chance to live), instead we should fight for people who are like us? close to us? And we don't give shit to other people dying?

Imagine, Germany bans Russian oil, does it make you a happy if they buy oil from Saudi? For me its same, both sides are killing innocent people, why make a switch then?

It may be declining in the short term, but Russia will be one of the winners as climate change continues to progress.
Glad to hear that you're keen to move away from fossil fuels. I'd add that renewable energy production methods are currently cheaper, faster to construct, easier to secure (both in terms of perimeter and supply chain), easier to train staff for and maintain, and safer long-term than nuclear energy production methods.

Not sure if they were impacted by the bug.
I think we need to acknowledge that no “red line” implied by NATO’s mutual defense pact has been crossed yet (to my knowledge). I think there are instincts and interests champing at the bit for any pretext to engage with Russia using the lives of their neighbors kids to do so, but for now, I think it’s wise to keep that impulse in check and talk about what the red line really is in a practical sense.

Do people really choose between Android and iOS based on the camera? They are all very close on quality, and IIRC if you don't like the stock camera apps you can get a third party app with less opinionated processing. But even so, the whole experience, including the ecosystem, matters so much more to me than the camera. I have a real camera for when it matters that much.
It’s coinciding with an AWS outage. Probably not unrelated.
I agree about causing actual inconvenience in public places, this shouldn't happen. But why are you bothered by the fact that some people are emotionally codependent with a dirty animal? I think you should either let people and dogs enjoy each other; or show some actual proof that the human-dog relationship is harmful; but many sources say otherwise [1].

To add – the two aren't mutually exclusive. You can have page layouts with divs and correct tags that screen readers can understand AND draw ascii borders around it.
Ex: English studies would not be complete without Aesop Fables. Learning the stories is the only way you can understand common phrases / idioms like "sour grapes".

Most of the vocabulary you pick up from context; idioms aren't fundamentally different from other parts of the language in that regard. You don't need to know an idiom's source material to understand its meaning, no more than you need to be aware of a word's etymology to use it. Though it doesn't hurt and it's often fascinating.
I absolutely don’t believe that’s what the commenter here was saying.

What I got from the comment is that it’s a problem everywhere, not isolated to this area or set of beliefs.

The commenter was simply providing another example of this, not stating this isn’t an overall bad thing. Of course it is.
Well where should we start. How about right here in the present where he's responsible for the current war in Ukraine.

The origin of OneWeb was that the founder approached Elon Musk with the OneWeb idea and an agreement was signed. Not sure what role SpaceX was supposed to take, but at some later point Elon bailed and started a competing service called Starlink.

The OneWeb founder posted a photo of the signed agreement on Twitter some years ago, dumping on Elon Musk.

The original OneWeb founder is no longer involved and has some other space startup now.

Originally Blue Origin and Virgin were supposed to be the launch capability but neither can put anything in space.

Here is the tweet. OneWeb was originally called WorldVu

> I rack my brain for any scientifically indefensible convictions I may hold myself.

But you'd never deliberately cause harm to someone over such a conviction, so it's not urgent.

You might want to self-scan for convictions that are likely to cause you inadvertent harm.

That can be lazily evaluated; in any situation in which you're making some critical decision where the wrong one could cause harm, check those convictions that are inputs to it.
Ignoring the whataboutism.

Last I checked, noone in the states or the west at large got disappeared or shoved out a window for protesting those actions by their government.

Also, and I think this is underappreciated by the HN crowd, because they don't work at these types of companies -- interfacing with legacy business-critical applications.

Most software products that companies buy have interoperability as either the least prioritized feature or as something to be actively prohibited.

The best, brightest, most modern examples of software, we are not talking about.
Context is king. It's likely less about structured/analyzed beliefs and more likely about expected/allowed behavior in situation A versus expected/allowed behavior in situation B.

For instance, inside church or around people from church, context A exists and behavior capabilities set A is selected, and when at a strip club, a different behavior capability set is selected. Where there is no context leakage, e.g. you don't hang out with the same people at the church that you do at the strip club, there may never be opportunities for the non-self-relfective to change.

There are rules about how far from an airport a plane can be, depending on number of engines (redundancy) and how it is rated. If you go to gcmap.com I believe it gives ranges for ETOPS which is a rule for big twin engine planes. AFAIK this is one reason why there are no flights over the south pole (the other being it's not on the way anywhere). Occasionally I feel like I have seen it mentioned that a plane had to deviate from the shortest route because of being too far from an airport.

Also, I recall reading that for Easter Island, only one plane can be inbound during a given window, because it is remote enough that there is nowhere to divert to. But you'd have to check to make sure I'm remembering correctly

Ask HN: Can VPN/SSO integration be used to auto-login to SSO enabled sites
At my company I have to log into our VPN each day to be able to access our internal tools/sites. Our VPN is already SSO enabled, or at least it triggers our SSO provider's 2FA. It seems like once I'm logged into VPN, when another site that requires SSO Auth redirects me to the SSO Provider to have me authenticate, that the SSO Provider should be able to determine that I already signed into VPN, and from there for just automatically authenticate without me needing to fill in the log in form. I think it's technically feasible, but I'm guessing it isn't implemented.
Nuclear arms can be a stabilizing factor in the near term, but nuclear proliferation is unquestionably dangerous: the more nukes are around, the more likely it is that accidents will happen. Ultimately, we need meaningful incentives that can push even existing nuclear states to clean up their act, without having to worry that this might expose them to coercion by other states that have kept their nukes.

I'm not from the US, so I cannot give any direct practical advice. But, all I can say is, if you choose to go to MIT, just make sure that it is not the only worthy accomplishment in your whole life. Most people from prestigious institutions tend to say they they graduated from XXX/YYY as the only thing worth mentioning about them. While not bad, if that is the only worthy thing to share, then those prestigious schools are not great after all ...

Biden labelled Putin as war criminal has put relations on the verge of rupture
Thank you for your comment, you are right that nuclear deterrance is important and should be factored into any military conflict. However, you've assumed that nuclear deterrence cannot be nullified, or that robots or drones (or say a bat virus) will not be weaponised to be a threat to a conventional military (or nuclear deterrent). I'm not so sure, all war brings surprises and unexpected developments. My guess is that we’re going to see hybrid wars in the future where it isn’t obvious that an attack has been made. Indeed in "The Unnatural Origin of SARS and New Species of Man-Made Viruses as Genetic Bioweapons", by Xu Dezhong, it was speculated that WWIII would be fought with bioweapons. It’s quite an eye opener considering it was published in 2015.

If I was a military strategist, I would want geographical strategic advantage and maximum future flexibility.

I believe the plan is to let Russia fire first, and escalate progressively until a) Russia wisely retreats, or b) Moscow is fallen, while carefully rendering nuclear options seem undesirable. That except the last part was how it went last time for us.

An unfortunate and overlooked fact is that Europe (Germany in particular) effectively exported the resource curse problem to Russia, which was probably the country in its sphere least likely to deal with it well. Hindsight is 20/20.

Besides the fact that we can't exactly build infrastructure for those gas fields overnight, I think Germany wants to avoid any association with sort of problem. The fear I would have is that they'd have to get that gas from the U.S. / Canada, which exports the resource curse problem to the U.S. and Canada instead.

Meanwhile, how Germany is going to solve the spot-generation problem, is unclear.
The cynic in me immediately wants to dismiss this story - but I do have to say that’s a pretty damn cool story, even if it’s not true. It makes me wonder, for sure; and that’s cool enough in and of itself for me.

The death blow came when Khadaffi was brutally murdered in 2011 by NATO allies after promising to give up his nuke program in exchange for non aggression pact.

This is what spurred North Korea to finish its nuke program.

This is ultimately also what led to Russia seeing NATO encroachment on Ukraine a an offensive threat.

It was possibly one of the worst pieces of foreign policy ever executed.

Controversial take: DSLRs and mirrorless cameras have largely made themselves irrelevant by ignoring computational photography advancements (computational photography is seen as "cheating").

I own several "real" cameras: FF, M43, and over a dozen lenses. Multiple camera companies. On paper many have very impressive specs. The problem is that camera companies focus primarily on raw specs with software being a secondary concern. To give one concrete example, I can press one button on a cellphone (almost any) and it will capture more dynamic range than my $2K DSLR.

How can a tiny sense in a cellphone capture more dynamic range can a massive sensor? Software. It is stacking multiple rapid exposures using an eShutter and computationally merging them. You can do that with a DSLR, but it is time-consuming, outside of camera, and produces worse results (e.g. motion in the frame will ruin your stack).

It is super aggravating, but it isn't actually surprising if you look at the amounts of money spent on photographic software alone compared to almost the entire camera industry. I've given up for most things, a cellphone can beat all but the absolute top end dedicated cameras and even then only for niches.
I really don't understand your "theoretical example".

How many counter-examples do I need to give to prove your "theortical example" false?
Just one example would be enough to make your "theory" wrong, right?

How many countries do you want me to give you as a example where they RAISED minimum Wage, and unemployment LOWERED?

Do you think this is possible?
If it's possible, what does it say about your "theoritical example"?

Look at any EU country after the financial crisis in the last 10 years, they both RAISED minimum wages, and unemployment FELL!

Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Denmark, Baltic Countries, Poland?
