I honestly feel bad for you. I don't know where you are from or what you are up to, but it sounds like you are really in a bad way.

Which is a shame, as Life is something good, even if there are hard moments.

I strongly suggest looking for some way to improve and enjoy yourself. Breathing techniques help for some, Zen for others. Religion adds tremendously to personal well being, and helps deal with frustrations and pain.

Professional help can get you a long way, as can marriage if you are willing to genuinely care for your partner.

And drop social media, videos, drinks, drugs, porn, or whatever else is burning you out. (I don't have a smartphone and am amazed how much better my life is for it)

Enjoy life, as you only get it once.
Just reading the example paragraph, I did feel at times speed was increased, but there were times the highlighted letters caused my brain to assume the wrong word, and when that happened it took extra effort (& time) to focus on the actual word.
IME the people who want to find connections on an app tend to have anxiety around actually meeting/doing things with new people, and apps are unable to drive the level of commitment required to overcome that anxiety. Without an existing social network, connections tend to fizzle out before a relationship (platonic or otherwise) has a chance to be established.

To the OP:
Find a problem you can fix, want to fix, monetise and try to stay legal.

I'm learning that govt legislation is sometimes a posterior covering position whilst trying to maintain some semblance of authority over the population. This can hold back innovation so where legislation controls your activities (food supplement legislation is a good example), and there will be, make sure you have the arguments figured out before hand because you might be calling upon them in court as one of your customers may be forcing you to court directly or indirectly whether you like it or not.
> If someone were going around telling me that they don’t think my husband and I should be married isn’t hate, then I’m not sure hate as a word has a lot of meaning left.

While I personally am all for same-sex marriage, I think the problem is that hate has too many meanings these days. Any disagreement on hot topics is often construed as hate. The world isn't all hate or love, black and white, with or against us. What you're asking for is conformity.

While Eich could have spared his personal controversial thoughts as a tech CEO, like everybody else he is free to think whatever he wants. Voting against someone else's ideals in a democratic process isn't hate; it's called a trick question when only one answer is valid and acceptable.
The real issue is that while states are passing laws banning requests for prior salary/wages this provides employers with an end run around those laws: they never "ask the employee" for their old income, and can instead rely on existing employers to essentially publish that information for anyone willing to pay.

Equifax spokesperson said they keep the "work verification" information siloed. Forgive me if I don't trust the claim that a credit agency of all things accrues this information and doesn't have a plan to try to monetize it.

It also further reinforces that we can't rely on our employers not leaking/selling our information to third parties. Especially wage history which is not relevant to verifying prior employment.
A much cheaper and better solution is to use an opensource OS that use Sane.

I ditched it 2y ago when I changed country but I have been using an old usb scanner whose latest drivers were only installable on windows ME and 2000 for years on my different linux distros. If you don't want to use linux as your main OS, most virtualization solutions support USB forwarding and shared folders which allow one to scan on a vm and get the files directly on the host OS.
Actually this made it harder for me to read. The text felt "bumpy", unlike normal in text where it felt smoother and flowing. Maybe it's just a matter of habit.

Anyways, I don't believe speed-reading to be effective, especially for comprehension and long-term retention. The best and fastest way to get an overview of a written piece is not to read it faster, but to skip most of the content. Most of it is just supporting the core arguments, and can thus be skipped for an overview.

I'm amazed at how much clearer the bionic-highlighted text is. For me the big difference was in first-pass comprehension, not speed.

The website needs more attention to detail, this typo is one of the first things a visitor sees:

> We humans store learned words and so just a few letters are enough to ecognize whole words.
I think "estimated" is a recent addition they show, when the input data sources fail. Which unfortunately they do quite often. But then, I am not paying for the service, so who am I to complain? :)

When values are non-estimated, they are about 2 hours behind in the free version.
As I write this, yet again, I cannot push to or pull from GitHub repositories since about an hour now, and yet again the GitHub status page is all green. It's starting to seem like it never gets updated outside of US business hours.
It's worth highlighting that the M1 series has efficiency and performance cores. For our test suite, the efficiency cores struggle and can tank the whole test run.

We set our node test suite (jest) to use the number of performance cores, not the total count (which is the default).

That actually sped up the test process, particularly on the M1 which is 50/50 efficiency and performance cores. It's less pronounced on the M1 Pro, but still a benefit.
This has been around for a very long time. I made my living, writing the corporate-sponsored software for some of the scanners VueScan supports. I was often goaded by “VueScan does this, so we need to do it, as well.”

Hamrick is an awesome engineer, and it’s kind of heartwarming to see that he’s still going, like a big pink rabbit, banging a drum.
Yes I understand that. Optimal is then if you have set your individual reading setting with Bionic Reading.

And what you have to remember is that your brain has already absorbed the words. So your eye jumps back instead of gliding over the text.

However, this will turn off and you will find that you understand the text without having read every letter.
We call that "abstraction" and "layers". And yes, layers leak, but we still use layers.

Those sysadmins are by and large someone else's problem now :-p
This is the point I'd stress. There's never a "right time", you'll always wonder if you're doing the right thing, and there'll always be reasons why you should wait a year or two more.
I think it's still a useful monad to look at. If you just pattern match Maybe, you're not really treating it like a monad or a functor, just as a tagged union that happens to implement a monad interface.

In contrast, there are easily understood reasons to use the monad interface of a promise/async. That's why I think it's a good monad for understanding the structure of monadic binding.

The way I see it is kinda like this, and I hope it makes some sense to others:

You can get the value out of a list... but there might be many or none. You can get the value out of a maybe... if it's there. You can even get the value out of the async function... but you'll just have to hold up what you're doing to wait for it.

This kind of (roughly) non-determinism is how I understand the concept of "effect", which is what Haskell frequently uses monads to model. A function returning a `M a` becomes "deterministic" (it always returns an `M a`) and benefits from the sort of equational reasoning that we like.

To be clear, the use of monads to represent effects is a software engineering decision and not inherent to monads.

It's definitely helped my understanding and I suspect it would help others too.
I didnt say that. You asked 'how can people not understand, that in the age of...'. I tried to explain how people cannot understand. The explanation is what people cannot understand is far out or what happens normally. (yes, i know, you might have meant this more as an rhetorical device or sarcasm, but I think it is an important question you shd really ask yourself especially since you raised it)
Not to spoil your day, but if you subtract back out the costs of the venue it might be less than half that.
> You can't make it to those p-values by mistake.

That's a dangerous statement. I'm pretty sure I got p-values of over 1 or under 0 by mistake. People will make every mistake you think is impossible. (Not that I think it's a mistake here)
Initial Code, Optimise Later. (ICOL)
There's fairly aggressive bot activity when you run a search engine, which is why many of us are behind cloudflare or similar bot-mitigation services.

Best guess is the bots are attempting to manipulate Google or Bing's suggestion algorithms this way (since a lot of small search engines are basically just forwarding results from bigger engines). Unfortunately they can be very aggressive to the point of almost bringing down your service. I saw up to 30k searches per hour before I cried uncle and got behind cloudflare.

I do offer an API, and I suspect some others in the indie search space might as well (or might at least be willing to set one up). That way I can rate limit on a per-consumer basis without affecting everyone.
> Please, show me an estimate for an alternative fossil-fuel system that can guarantee that shortfall.

I like nuclear. I have always liked nuclear. However: it's always sunny somewhere on Earth, and the total amount of solar energy delivered to us by nature's finest fusion reactor is something like 170TW.

If you will indulge me the geopolitical fantasy of putting a suitable planetary-scale transmission system in place, is there any particular reason we couldn't switch to all-solar?

Admittedly, I submitted it out of interest owing to concern for some apparent general decline. The article studied the elderly: some values doubled. I do not see a reason to suppose the trend should be restricted to the elderly.
I normally have to make a conscious effort to speed read so this is intriguing. I’ve had a lot of success with Edge’s reader mode with verbs and nouns highlighted in different colours.

> According to reports at the time, someone in the cockpit spilled a drink about 15 minutes before the engine shut itself down. The liquid ended up on the center pedestal between the two pilots, near a panel which is used to start and control engine functions.

> After the right-hand engine shut down, pilots tried, unsuccessfully, to restart it [emphasis mine]

This seems like a major incident as it could've very easily been catastrophic had the liquid also contacted the other thrust lever mechanism and/or master engine switch which is right next to the one affected here. I'd say they were very lucky.

That is at most a very small part of doing mathematics.
Having done this before myself, let me preface this by saying that I want you to succeed. Publishing short fiction is a thankless, time consuming slog.

> Terrible for readers, as stories are all locked behind paid magazines

We must be reading different things. For example, Clarkesworld (https://clarkesworldmagazine.com/) and (https://www.tor.com/category/all-fiction/) Tor make a huge amount of material available.

> the process is a black box that takes 2-3 months to get a reply

Reading slush is hard. Anyone offering non-token payment is going to get buried in submissions. I've discussed this at length with the editor of a top literary magazine. His magazine receives over 40,000 submissions per year. Without a large staff it's simply impossible to handle that volume.

> you only end up getting paid $100, tops

This is market dependent. You're right that most very short fiction won't pay more than $100. The going rate is 8-12 cents per word. Occasionally I've seen markets paying 25 cents per word, like Terraform, but those are outliers.

> Magazines also usually take the rights to your story. ... We explicitly ask if people want us to publish their story, even if they don’t win.

Professional magazines pay authors for rights. They only acquire those rights from people they pay. Without payment, there's no transfer of rights. You should clarify that only published submissions are CC licensed.

> It’s not to fund the private careers of a handful of professional sci-fi writers in magazines that only a small audience reads.

I think you're misunderstanding magazine publishing. Science fiction magazines are the farm league. Publish a few stories and maybe you'll win the lottery with a book deal. To my knowledge the only person in the world making a career out of sci-fi magazines is Neil Clarke.

It would take one hell of an incentive to make someone with

* No previous tech knowledge

* A full-time job

* No external help

learn systemd, or how to setup and maintain a web server, or whatever.
Individuals may still self-host of course, but I'm skeptical people will do it en masse anytime soon.
After all, if the entry barrier weren't so high, we wouldn't have an entire service industry that does this for you (SquareSpace, Wix, Substack...)
This. I think -- speaking for myself mostly -- folks move to cloud for the simplicity a web interface provides. If you like, there's usually a CLI that abstracts the compute and other things. Self hosting -- at least whenever I did it -- was always: start with a VM, install Linux, configure ports, configure security, install a webserver, deal with the security of that, manage conf files, deploy website, etc etc

Host a static page on github pages makes all that a ton easier and also free.

That's a trite example sure. But when I was at a previous company who did almost everything on premises I couldn't help but think if we had an internal portal/system a la GCP's console or that of Amazon's that could be a way for devs to spin up resources and have it all managed and even be a bit programmatic (no no K8s doesn't solve all of this it's its own bag of crazy) then we'd not need cloud much since we'd not need the almost infinite scale that cloud offers.
Would you pronounce it “Grin-drrrrr” because you just want to normalize to a hooked-on-phonics view of pronunciation while using a language that is a crash-merge of proto-Germanic and French with a sprinkling of centuries of colonial cultural appropriation?

“GIF” is like a brand. It’s a spec; a proper noun. As such, it has a clearly intended pronunciation that was unambiguously provided by the creator. That guy is dead now, so he may not notice, but try honoring his intentions for a day.

Everyone who gets dogmatic about “I don’t care what the spec is like” just comes off seeming to me like old Englishmen who quite clearly intentionally mispronounce non-English words (except French, which they relish…).

It used to be that the only folks I knew who pronounced this out of spec were my parents and grandparents (because the didn’t know better and were computer illiterate). Now, somehow, we have rafts of people who have adopted the posture of my parents in the 90s with pride.

I imagine that the next 24 hours will see a lot of these sorts of discussions…
I'd say it almost halves my reading speed. In regards to speed reading I've always been under the impression it means you take in entire lines/sentences in one go rather than reading faster, skipping the sub-vocalisation step. For instance the homepage of HN is a quick scan vertically down the page until a headline catches my eye as interesting, no real side to side eye movement needed unless the title is a bit long

Maybe this brain reading faster than eyes thing is best aimed at sub-vocalisers? I'd be interested in knowing if the people this helps read 'out loud' in their heads

There are a lot of people which quit their "soulless" job and to chase their dream just to ultimately be forced to give up on them after loosing years of savings. I very much doubt that none of them regret leaving their jobs
One of the concerns I had never considered with these smaller reactors is the potential security concerns. Although they might not be overly dangerous, they are still realistic targets for terror groups. It's easier protecting a small number of large sites even though they are horrifically expensive to build.
It's pretty silly how many services are public by default when ideally they should only listen on a unix domain socket (or nothing) until you configure something else.

Oh, I see: you are wondering why Apple M1 Ultra, as two chips linked by EMIB, couldn't just be the two chips adjacent on the wafer.

See the difference? Apple knows what their yields are; if they could be sure to get two matched SoC M1 Max chips right next to one another on the wafer, they could punch that pair out and bypass the whole EMIB thing.

I don't know enough about testing and dicing 100-billion-transistor chips to know how expensive that would be.
While I agree that factual data points are necessary to test the hypothesis and reach a better conclusion, I disagree that one needs to memorize them. Facts are stored in databases and books. One can always look it up. Maybe a matter of minutes or hours.

There is no point in memorizing a readily available fact that virtually has no effect on your life.

Moderators and a small number of reviewers go through old submissions looking for articles that are in the spirit of the site—gratifying intellectual curiosity—and which seem like they might interest the community.

> But if you’ve been using anything other than last-gen Macs to compare against, the M1 feels more like catching up to current performance standards as opposed to the media narrative about being faster than anything else out there.

I don't know. The M1 Macs (we have two of them now) accomplish what Intel/AMD spent 2013+ trying and largely failing to do - maximizing battery life without compromising on performance. The suckers are fast. They're not the fastest kits of hardware out there, but they're certainly within shooting distance.

They do this without having a bulky chassis, multiple fans running constantly, or needing to be tethered to a power chord. They've been available for close to a year and a half now(?) and, unless if I've missed something, Intel/AMD still don't have a viable competitor.

Now, I completely agree that the software environment still hasn't completely caught up. But for my use case that's ok - give me a working shell terminal, web browser, and word processor, and I'm happy. I'm also lucky enough that I have a very well equipped remote system that I can push my actual work to. If I had to use my laptop for development, it may very well be a different story, but that's the trade off you make for being an early adopter.

Putting aside any consideration about the safety of running those reactors and disposing of the spent fuel, I wonder about the wisdom of investing in an energy source which would not decrease West's dependency on authoritarian and openly adversarial states.

Kazakhstan + Russia + Uzbekistan + China = about 54% of the world production in 2018. [1] Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan are both in Russia's sphere of influence, especially the former one which accounts for 40% of the world production.

On the other side, Canada is the number 2 producer (13%) and Australia is estimated to have more reserves than all of the above countries combined. [2]
