And X11 on Linux (if you're not using Wayland) supports middle-click emulation, where pressing the left and right mouse buttons simultaneously (debounced to within a couple milliseconds) will be interpreted as a middle-click.

I may or may not use this with my laptop dozens of times a day (it's how I copy/paste out of xterm).

(Fun bit of trivia, my old EliteBook 8470p has a trackpad+trackpoint setup with two independent sets of buttons, and while I don't seem to be able to middle-click with the trackpoint buttons, I can send a middle-click by pressing both trackpad buttons, keep them held down, and then independently send left and right clicks (press-release) using the trackpoint buttons as much as I want. I somehow doubt that was an accident. Engineering archaeology is fun :D)

Yes, and those changes happened in the face of clear and overwhelming scientific evidence.

I’m not advocating blind adherence to tradition, I’m simply stating that the Null hypothesis is that soy foods are perfectly fine for health, until actual scientific evidence proves otherwise. All that exists not amounts to nothing more than conjecture, which, given the amount of attention this topic has gotten over the years, one would presume more evidence would be present by now.
I don't actually know the answer to this, but I know that heavy particles in the lungs would trigger an intense fit of coughing to get rid of them, and so I doubt that residue would accumulate. I am not a doctor and this is not medical advice.

Uber was an international company by 2012. The #metoo movement, specifically in regards to weinstein didn't pick up until around mid 2010s as far as I remember. Yes technically it originated earlier but there was an entire decade between the first reference and the actual movement.

The thing that did it for me was building a "web browser" in VB6 using a printed book and copying the lines one by one. It was just a wrapper around a webview with a few buttons and text fields to navigate.

From https://www.raspberrypi.com/news/production-and-supply-chain... :

>> "...supply constraints have prevented us from flexing up to meet this demand..."

Wish they would have elaborated more on what kind of supply constraints they are facing. Is there a limit to how many microchips that they can order that they can't manufacture themselves? Seems to me regardless of the supply constraints, if they raise the price by $20 to $50 and pass that money on to the suppliers that would positively motivate them to increase the supply.

>> Where units do appear, bots often attempt to scalp stock which is then resold at higher prices elsewhere. Many Approved Resellers have implemented single-unit limits to combat this, with Adafruit and others going further and enforcing two-factor authentication – we’re encouraging other Approved Resellers to consider this route.

For as long as the price is artificially constrained, what is there to prevent secret mafia deals between reseller insiders and the bot farm operators, or what is there to prevent the bot farm operators from infiltrating the resellers, and quickly gobbling up the supply as soon as it is available, to sell at market prices for the easy profit??

Very interesting!

About 8 years ago, I had many migraines (a few per year but I would essentially be unable to do anything for a couple of hours). Many of those were the results of being in a noisy environment or high physical effort.

I knew whenever I was going to get a migraine because I got the auras (couldn't see in front of me, but if I remember correctly I still had my peripheral vision) and couldn't feel the very tip of my thumbs and my tongue (yes, apparently you can lose this, too). A few minutes after those feelings, sure enough I would get the migraine. When in that state, I have a big headache, can't see much, nausea.

Hopefully other people will relate!
And a search for the roots of said "shared" terms creates trees of relations which are crucial and incommensurately important to recognize clusters of meanings that link disparate "terminal" terms, and arrive to "patterns" in this compositional structure that are the "heart and soul" of those clusters.

(For example, I recently mentioned in these pages the terms for the "sky" as spawning from ideas of "covering", which also spawn terms for "colour" and "concealing".)

They address the connection between rain and TV time in the article:

>The authors first use data from the American Time Use Survey to confirm the link between precipitation and television watching. The results suggest a strong relationship - a child under age 3 watches an average of 27 additional minutes of television on a day with one inch of precipitation (which is equivalent to a day of heavy rain) than on a day with no precipitation.

That is true, the problem is with the conclusion you drew from that fact:

> So it should not be approximated in that way.

We can’t conclude a dynamic approximation is a bad approach based purely on the fact the underlying function isn’t dynamic.

The function might nevertheless be easily approximated via dynamics — as in the case of predicting sine from seeing the recent history.

who eventually figured out its origin.

Let's say you have 2 bad neighbours. One keeps dumping toxic sludge in your garden (corporations). The other is forever telling you this is OK (government) and that you need to forget about it. Eventually they start to tell you that that your garden is a problem and that something needs to be done. At this point they come to you to ask for more money (a lot more) to clear it up, and ask that you can't go outside any more while they sort out the problem. And you think this is right and agree! I hope you can show you have become weaker at their expense, because you believed their nonsense!

The unfortunate reality is that the people that run government and corporations are the worst of us - parasites that are expert in extracting wealth from us, who then try to kid us that their abuse is in our best interests.

Those people who accept government are failing to recognise what poor psychology they have wrt government. They are the enablers of a narcissistic beast. You would NOT accept the behaviour that government does from a person, a person you would hold to account, but you justify and argue for government to be part of the solution! Amazing.

If you think those undertaking the abuse are going to resolve the issue they themselves present to you, you have it wrong. Until you recognise your frailties, and how you yourself are enabling their abuse, nothing will change. The promised land of a clean earth or whatever, will not be achieved while the worst of us are seeing opportunities to make more money and take greater control.

FWIW that's not how you argue, that's just letting all the air out of the balloon.

As for your arguments, IMHO humans are fundamentally wanderers, and we stumble on discoveries and accidental solutions to problems as much (if not more often) than we intentionally set out to understand or achieve something. Given the expanse of the brain, the theoretical paradox of a scanner trying to scan itself, and the post-discovery nature of how we structure and organize things, I think we'll only make progress once we fully let go a bit.

Not to a stupid extreme, of course - unhinged conspiracy theories are as useless as trying to build load-bearing insights from drug experiences, IMHO - but just scientifically accepting that we'll never truly understand how we tick until we accept the wild nature behind it. We are not nearly there yet.

I liked the GP comment.

The video that they try to show as if out of the drone is heavily edited to make it look similar to the other camera that they have used.

Here's an interesting fact about the cerebellum: it has more neurons than the rest of the brain combined, and as far as we know, all it does is help with balance a bit. There have been cases studies of people with a fully ablated cerebellum, and they can still walk, just a bit unsteadily.

> has led me to adopt the working hypothesis that many of our cognitive experiences are more complicated than we tend to assume, and that they're often made up of several more or less independent processes

After finishing my CompSci degree I was bored and did some first year psychology degree courses and that was also one of my main takeaways (I don’t mean it was an original take, just one of the main takeaways I remember from these courses).

See for example split brain individuals[0] where the connection between the two hemispheres is severed/damaged - up to a point this was a common surgery to treat epilepsy a decade ago.

Patients seemed fine on first glance, but ultimately there were interesting incongruences [1]. I’m probably doing injustice to the description of the experiment so please read the linked page, but essentially they created a situation where each eye saw a different image (e.g. one related to chickens and another to snow) and then asked to choose with different hands from a set of pictures the picture most related (e.g. an egg or a snowman).
The right hand (connected to the right hemisphere and thus the left eye) chose one thing connected to what the left eye saw and the right hand chose another.

Let’s say the left eye saw snow and the right saw chickens.
The most interesting part is when the patients were asked about their choices, since only the left hemisphere can talk (the speech center).
So they explained why the left hand chose something correctly, but made up some unrelated explanation about their right hand choices (“eggs are white like snow”)!
In other more horrific terms, the right hemisphere had some level of thinking/reasoning going on but could not speak since it now had no mouth.

So, in healthy individuals there’s definitely syncing between the two hemispheres and different centers going on, but as any complex system I’m sure there are hiccups.

I have hearing loss in both ears which runs in family. Tinnitus is just a serious side effect that I somehow manage. I was hoping that a biological solution to hearing loss would be available by 2020, but even with some hope a lot of projects are running late. Guess most of the approaches want to convert stem cells/ molecular sources etc. to hair cells inside the cochlea. I really hope something is available within 20 years and I can experience normal hearing.

Show HN: Make catch-ups happen in different time zones
https://www.lets-ketchup.com

We (Sinan and Maciej) started off like any couple of young guys after a few drinks, setting ourselves a goal to “Change the World”.
Except the next morning we were still determined to chase this goal. So to try and figure out how we were going to change the world, we said to each other: “Let’s Ketchup”.
So we decided to “ketchup” regularly with the goal to change the world. We set ourselves some rituals and commitments as part of our ketchup (mainly just for fun, first). Over time, we iterated on our process and our ketchup developed and evolved.
Now, after 3017920 minutes (over 40 “ketchups”), AND each of us moving countries/timezones multiple times.
We always made it happen We always made it meaningful
In the last year and a half, we have also started having regular ketchups with other groups of friends with different goals, some as simple as “just to stay in touch”. And again, we have found that with these other friends we also managed to ketchup and:
Always make it happen Always make it meaningful
Finally, as self-proclaimed “energy engineers”, we realized we really know how to “ketchup”. We know how to make it happen and make it meaningful, and now we are looking forward to sharing our secrets… and finally “Change the World”.
