If you do start lifting, I would recommend Starting Strength (Rippetoe). The 3x5 squats, deadlift, press routine got me out of a deep depression. It gave me life. I saw that the mind is supported by the body, and without health the mind is a turmoil.
The state of things in ca and America might not be pleasing but denial won’t change what is “normal” in the sense of common and standard, not unusual. It’s not a desired state of affairs, but it’s definitely a current normal that is not just an SF thing.

Buying a media outlet is like buying the yacht and buying the plane. It's like just something of the "everyone in the club has one!" types of stuff you buy when you have enough capital to run your own private country.
If you have high-value info to protect, you are somewhat exposed if other people in your house are sloppy with security.

Household shared threat models include:

- they download a trojan, it infects your shared printer, and copies all your documents to the bad guys

- their phone is compromised and its microphone listens to your conversations and keystrokes.

These are attacks against high-value targets. If you're just surfing Reddit, you probably don't care. But if you work for a tech company and have customer data or cloud logins on your machine, you should probably care.
The mental gymnastics going on in this thread is crazy.

Let's separate two concerns:

1) Belief system – whether you philosophically support Elon's take over or not

2) Objective facts, corporate finance and legal aspects of what's going on

All I can see in this thread is 1) masquerading as 2).

NEVER, EVER, suggest dropping therapy to someone with depression.
If there is anyone here with access to it, please could you try using it to generate some tight pixel art of simple concepts and post the results? I am thinking - chair, coffee, boat, control panel, wedding ring, lamp, pit. I am curious whether it could be a fast way to design sprites. Imagine if it could be trained in the style of particular desktop systems.
KDE is just so much better. Dolphin is a pleasure to use.
In general, numpy has a minimum execution time of around 1 microsecond per operation. If your operations are on small arrays, Julia will be much faster since small operations can be very fast (eg adding 2 100 element arrays takes about 10 ns).

That's really sad.

I've never been there but definitely romanticized the beers and beaches and kangaroos motif. Oh well.
Absolutely. I'm reaching 40 this year and people around me always get surprised when I told them I'm making plans for retirement. For most of them planning for retirement is just financial, and many of them do have a solid plan.

But I'm mostly worried about the mental/spiritual part.
Every couple years some new trend pops up that people start claiming will fix everyone's mental health issues. One of the current ones seems to be weight lifting. I have no doubt it can be massively helpful for mental health for a lot of people, but it's awfully condescending and detached from reality when people show up say "lmao drop therapy, all you have to do is pick up heavy things".
Prominence just makes it tougher for the platform to avoid ambiguity in their justifications. Some moderation is valid but other times it can be too much. None of us have the time to spend personally reviewing the claims of every contributor who feels like they were treated unfairly.

We see this with Twitter now. People complain about various tweets being blocked, and there's always a "back-and-forth" about how Tweet A is against their guidelines but somehow Tweet B isn't. But when they outright ban (e.g.) Donald Trump, there's no ambiguity any more. The discussion moves beyond the minutia of spam / bot handling and into something more concrete.

Though you're right: censorship of those with smaller voices is at least as problematic. We just all ultimately have limited resources available and focusing on the more clear-cut examples is more likely to be successful.
This is common practice with most carriers like a FEDEX, UPS, post offices, etc. There's the contracted rate (or published rate for lower volume shippers) and then a "fuel surcharge" that's tacked on to offset the volatility of fuel and consumables. Usually it's lifted as market conditions change, though not always immediately as each company will often book fuel at a contracted price, even if higher to insure some price stability, so the surcharges don't match market conditions exactly.

With logistics companies it's typically easier to identify the incremental surcharge, as at first glance they've blended it as fee increases.

You can point to any large amount of money spent and say that it could be spent better. At least this is staying in the country and could potentially benefit people.

I don't know about the validity of the bid (fifty.. four twenty?) but man does Twitter need a kick in the ass. The product has been stagnant since birth but has so much potential, I'd be interested to see what reforms Elon would bring in.
"In general, more free speech is always preferable to less free speech."

Again, why? This is something people are repeating almost dogmatically in this thread, and the examples from history they point to in order to support this are inapposite in numerous ways.

On the other hand, we have pretty concrete examples about how verifiably false information is spreading in contemporary society, in addition to things like hate speech.

You are not immune to propaganda.
Exactly. I am not asking for the reporters' opinion. I am asking for the reporter to try to reveal the truth to the reader. That is their job. Their job isn't to reprint press releases. They should ask for clarification and evidence.

There needs to be a greater degree of skepticism in the way the media covers powerful people, companies, and organizations. Amazon saying something doesn't mean that statement is true. It is the reporter's job to determine if it is true before passing that statement along to the reader. When the reporter is unable to confirm it as truth, the reporter should denote that lack of confirmation before repeating the statement. When the reporter can confirm something is false, such as the implication that fuel price increases are permanent, the reporter should note that as a lie.

Are you saying that having tried Ketamine as a cure for depression yourself or do you just have a bad image of the drug in your mind? Just curious because I would absolutely not suggest someone who is depressed take LSD, but there is growing evidence that ketamine can help specifically with depression.

That's a good point. I guess I just question the value of having any more "direct ROI" when you already have a quarter of a trillion dollars. Surely, at that level, the things that improve the quality of your life -- especially to a systems thinker type -- are positive social changes?
the answer isn't: it's fine because it's linux and you can use something else. The answer is: ok, it's broken, but it's GNU: you can fix it yourself!

Sadly, I'm with you on this. My immediate reaction after reading that quote was "Who decides what constitutes well-being?"

Unfortunately, the answer is whomever is in power.
> the concept of "free speech" in the US is not relevant at all to the question of whether a private entity can remove you from their platform for saying something they don't like.

You seem to be confusing "free speech", the concept, with "free speech", the legal right.

Most codifications of the legal right limit themselves to protecting against certain types of government interference.

However, the concept itself is absolutely not limited to contexts where censorship is imposed by a government. To try to impose this limitation is 1984-style thought policing that tries to remove existing language to control what can be said.

I'm not talking about some colloquial meaning, but the core meaning of the concept of "freedom of speech".

Ask HN: How well do you know your colleagues?
I'm currently coming off of a project where I barely knew my coworkers after having worked with them for more than two years.

Before this project, I used to work with coworkers who I learned to know a lot better.

I don't know how much of this is because of the pandemic and how much of it is because of other cultural aspects of the project.

How well do others know their coworkers on a personal level? Do you feel like you should or shouldn't share aspects from private life with your coworkers or not?

Not only impossible to find, the gtk3/4 devs actually changed the underlying gtk versions to stop respecting gsettings to enable pathbar even if the user did find and set it. But they didn't remove the gsettings. They're just non-functional.

And because it's gtk3/4 not only the desktop environment applications are effected. All gtk3/4 using applications are. Things went downhill quickly after ~2014.

True, but one of these is set in a messy and complex interlocking system of multi-stakeholder incentives. The other seems to be more or less the whims of one individual.
I was under the impression crush seals are used once not because of work hardening but from deformation. You can only crush them into place once. e.g. on conflat vacuum flanges the harder stainless steel knife edge on the flanges sandwich the copper gasket biting into it creating a tight metal-to-metal seal. That biting plastically deforms the copper forcing it into the tiny surface imperfections in the stainless to form an extremely tight seal. Once you break that formed copper seal it is permanently damaged. It cannot be reused as the mating area has has been deformed and the majority of its material squeezed away from the mating area. You have to start over with a fresh flat seal that will deform into the cracks and crevices.
+1. And aggressively dismiss anyone who doesn’t love it.

Have you read How to fail at everything and still win big?

His advice is essentially everyone needs:
1. Good food
2. Exercise
3. Friends
4. Something to look forward to (working towards some goal)

How are you doing in these 4 areas? Tackling the first 3 gives you good energy and general vibe. For #4 there is no end to what can be achieved, so always possible to select a goal. Just need to find something that excites you.
Midlife crises stereotypically result in a a sports car or a mistress. These days they might take a whole other form: Belatedly having kids! Talk about distraction from life going downhill from here. It still sucks, you just don't have to dwell on it.

Getting fit really helps, especially if you've never been athletic. I love cycling and have always done a lot of it, but COVID and WFH changed the nature of it. Instead of a "baseline" of bike commutes and extra sporty rides on top of that, it was all sporty rides. And while Strava reminds me that elite athletes can climb a hill over twice as fast as I can, and naturally athletic people in my age group are still 5-10% faster, it's still fun to try to beat my segment time up that hill and then it has knock-on benefits like better sleep, and even motivation to shed a few pounds because that too will help the hill climb time.

US Officials Tie North Korean Hacker Group to Axie's Ronin Exploit
I think that millenials are probably _better_ as a whole on acknowledging the role their privileges have played in their success. At least in my cohort, the odds of someone who had a great upbringing telling you unironically to pull yourself up from your bootstraps is basically zero.

Also, I think calling it roleplaying is a little misleading because it implies they could stop if they wanted to. You can have a gigantic parental safety net and still have no great job prospects. It’s infinitely better than actually being poor, but there’s enough overlap to commiserate I think? People want to be self sufficient and can’t.
His absolutist "free speech" attitude would absolutely be horrible for Twitter. There would be literally nothing to stop bots and state-sponsored messmakers from completely gaming Twitter far beyond what they already do today. I think a lot of people do not realize the can of worms they are opening when they advocate for zero moderation on a platform as large as Twitter.
Exactly. You can barely sustain a fuel farm on the fuel that services 100% of the piston GA fleet. It's incredibly difficult to make the economics work to add a second fuel farm that serves only 30% of the gasoline sold, cannibalizing sales from your other fuel farm.

That's the premise/promise of G100UL: it can serve all the spark-ignition piston aircraft.
> Honestly depressed people can't get shit done as you do, I live with somebody with it and they can't wake up, have a business or deal with commitments as you've done, to me it seems you are mostly sad because you want to always be on a peak, winning, sort of like a cocaine addict, hence my earlier comment about addiction

This isn't true, depression has a pretty wide spectrum, and some depressed people are fairly high functioning. There are vast differences in severity, and it also surfaces differently in different people.
Amazing? This is exactly the type of move I'd expect from someone like Elon who lacks empathy.

He is a sociopath. The fact that a sociopath wants to be a king of social media is disturbing.
Woah, toxic masculinity alert!

By all means give weights (or running, cycling, whatever) a go, but stay with the therapy.

Better to listen to professionals rather than some rando on the web.

LunaSec (YC S19) is hiring a growth lead to help build our GitHub community
## About the role

We are looking for someone with experience in growth as a Founder or Operator that is great at managing feedback from customers and that is able to act as an evangelist by continually improving our user experience (UX). We're building an Open Source product centered around a developer community (GitHub, Conferences, Slack, etc). The ideal candidate would be able to fill in gaps in our skill sets and would provide a fresh perspective that helps solve problems more effectively. You will also be required, on occasion, to act as 1st level support for questions, to capture customer feedback on the experience for our Software Composition Analysis (SCA) product and service line, and to be OK with wearing many hats as we grow.

In this role, you will be collaborating closely with the CEO and engineering team as LunaSec's Growth Lead. Your primary responsibility will revolve around ensuring that our goals around Marketing, Sales, and BD are going smoothly and according to our plans. We don't expect you to know everything right away, and we expect you to lean on us just as much as we'll be leaning on you.

### Our ideal candidate would possess the following skills:

- Native level English speaker (both verbal and written),
- Proactive communicator and a team player,
- Great attention to detail and organization,
- Business / customer feedback background and relevant past experiences,
- Understanding of digital growth and community engagement,
- Willingness to learn fast within the Cyber Security community on SCA and similar offerings.

### Nice to have skills:

- Developer evangelist background,
- Experience managing a blog and social media,
- A basic understanding of Cyber Security vulnerability management,
- Setting up a CRM business process,
- Understanding of marketing principles (campaigns, conversions, and SEO rankings),
- Capable of folding hats out of foil.

## Why you should join LunaSec

You care about improving user privacy because you're tired of your personal information constantly getting leaked.

You're interested in working with and learning from a team of world-class Security Engineers. (If you're familiar with the recent "Log4Shell" or "Spring4Shell" Java vulnerabilities, then you're familiar with our work. Check out a few links about that below[0][1][2][3][4].)

You will have a direct impact on the course of Application Security by helping us to disrupt an existing, stagnant market.

You won't be angry if you end up mushroom foraging with your boss or hanging out in a school bus that your colleague spent 18 months turning into a house.

You find it hard to believe that a company would cut cost by reducing the amount of product they use?

Tea, even if it is cheap, is still much more expensive than corn syrup and water. So if you want to cut costs, it makes sense to reduce the amount of tea and make up for it with more sugar.

If you do it a little bit over 30 year years, few people with notice. You get a panel of taste testers compare the current version with a slightly watered down version and see if they can tell the difference. If most can't, you make the change and pocket the savings as profit. It's like making a copy of a copy on a copy machine, you can't tell much difference between the two, but repeating the process over multiple generations and the small differences adds up to be dramatic between the original and the 30th generation version.

This exact situation happens for many food companies. They gradually reduce quality and costs over the years. And once the people who remembered the original product die off or forget, it can be hard to re-establish yourself as anything but a cheap brand.

Five cents is a big cut of a $0.50 product.
Go volunteer and spend time with those with less resources. Pour yourself into something worthwhile. When you take your focus off yourself and pour it into others things will improve.

I also know this isn't popular here but spiritual fitness is key as well.
The graphic is important I think. It's not a binary. While the younger generation showed more support for Russia, most of the difference between the generations was due to the younger generation giving an "unsure" answer.
Too early to say. He bought, pumped, and has set up an excuse to dump. To go against the trend, he would have to hold. That remains to be seen.
It was not so much a question on _who_ is going to win, as to _what_ is going to win. In other words: What are deemed legitimate criteria, and even the most important criteria, in a conflict? It’s a question of value systems. Making feelings paramount, like several above suggested, seems like a pragmatic quick fix. If one part obviously feels so much stronger than the other, why shouldn’t the other just give way? But it is not without its problems. Stronger feelings doesn’t mean more right, and doesn’t mean the holder has a more justified basis for being accommodated. Even though it may patch things up more easily in the short term.

There’s also a personality component: some people tend to feel more strongly about most things, and others may not feel particularly strong about anything (although they are not void of feelings/opinions). Causing relational skew. The latter person giving way, to smooth things over, and to not stir strong feelings in the other, can turn out to blow up hard in the long run.

But yeah, as you say: HOW something is done is oftentimes just as important as WHAT is done (the outcome).
Fiduciary duty =/= short term gains of company stock.

Shareholder interest =/= money. Shareholder votes allow other considerations can be taken into account.

I agree with your comment, but it's not that hard to reject IMO.
Not sure about the suggestion to "drop the therapy"—if op's current therapy isn't helping so much, a different therapist/approach can make all the difference in the world. It took a lot of time for me to discover that kind of therapy worked best for me, and it also took some determination for me to find a therapist with whom I could really connect. My current therapist has helped me so much.
Look into biohacking.
Turn inward.

Your physical survival is taken care of, now there is only conscious evolution.

Your mind (thoughts/feelings/emotions) is going to do what it has always done - run rampant. Now with the emptiness you're feeling, you'll want to pay even attention to them. Don't.

You're looking for a feeling of joy just for being alive. It's not found in the physical body or your mind. It's much deeper. The journey starts with stillness.

I suggest the following:

- some type of meditation (no apps), anything involving stillness

- being with the earth (gardening, walking)

- skip all media (at least not consuming it in the desire to find answers)

Where you are now is harder than the past 44 years.

You have to consciously (not compulsively like up till now) move forward.
