> Situation wrt to teen mental health is similar in Europe, but there's a much smaller graduation debt.

We have other issues here, though (speaking for the situation in Germany). I’m quite some time out of my teens at 36, but for many years now I’ve been told that all that tax (technically not a tax) I pay for my pension will not result in me getting any meaningful pension.

For people who are currently teenagers it probably sounds like this: "Once you get a job, which won’t afford you a house, you’ll pay a decent chunk of your salary so the people who managed to destroy the environment and don’t care about you have a better end of life. You’ll not see anything of this money ever again."

And that is without including all the messaging during the pandemic that young people (more towards people in their early 20ies, but still) are at fault for nearly everything.

edit: I should mention that I’m still not discounting social media, I couldn’t, as I know next to nothing about it.
My point is that the presence of unusual or even absurd requirements is a different thing than over engineering, even though the results can seem similar. If a design incorporates complexity that is not warranted by the requirements or the constraints, it can be described as over engineered. Requirements can cause the same complexity, but it is now warranted.

You may, of course, disagree about the requirements, but that really is a matter of risk tolerance, and preexisting policy.
On the other hand, my parents didn’t let me watch TV or play video games and I’m thankful for it. I didn’t talk to them for a few years, but today I’ve accepted many of their flaws and can better focus on what they can bring to my life. As a parent myself, I’m not too sure about the best course of action, but I sure believe I want to introduce my kids progressively to activities that require a lot of knowledge about themselves not to be harmful.

Since 2017 I have been living in Airbnbs, more than 80 at this point always for 1+ month long stays, and sometimes renting beyond in private arrangements with owner.

Mostly good experiences. I was also part of the last group of stays before Japan more or less outlawed it, feels bad.

Some bad parts include scorpion infestations in jungles in colombia, bedbugs in russia, roaches in brazil, rocket attacks in israel and mold in South korea. But mostly the worst thing is knowing im paying 20-50% more than a local in some countries.
It doesn't matter, supreme court justices aren't influenced by anything except what they wanted to do in the first place.

They have lifetime high salary employment, lifetime high salary retirement, lifetime security protection, they openly break laws that other federal judges have to obey (like not associating with political groups)

Point is they do whatever they want. Leaks will annoy them but it's not going to change anything. They do not have to respond to anyone, nor do any interviews, explain themselves, etc.

The time to prevent this was 50 years ago by making it law but then being undone was cemented in 2016 when there were a dozen other more qualified candidates but someone inexplicably was chosen otherwise.

This country is beyond comprehension.
I heard the same (that China made it illegal).
So does caloric restriction in general just mean maintaining a low-ish BMI?
Well, I think it is a combination of things

1. I despise biking in non-ideal conditions (and where I live this is roughly 60% of the time)
2. From my observations as a pedestrian, driver, biker I have concluded that other bikers are bikers own worst enemy when it comes to the commute, a problem that has not improved with improved bike infrastructure
3. Bike commuting kinda never is at home anywhere, at rush hour you are not at home at the bile lane, you are way to slow for general traffic and way way too fast for the pedestrian sections and there is no solution to this, you have to cross at some point somewhere where you are the „bad guy“
4. I get sweaty when I bike and I don’t like having to shower away my commute before I start my work day (I’ve usually showered already before taking off..)
5. Running errands on the commute route is also problematic with a bike as at rush hour there is just too much going on and too little space in European cities. If we assume that everybody/majority commute by bike this just exacerbates
6. there’s more but I think the reasoning becomes clear

All in all I applaud people for doing it, I just couldn’t live with it and prefer to be a pedestrian that uses fast transport for the big sections.
And yes, I also think that mass bike commuting is a delusion, low hanging political fruit that is being pushed to pump greenwashing agendas and does only kick the problem further down the road. The future should be pedestrian first with well decentralised cities, work from anywhere Job culture and fast (ideally self driving) shared transport.

But that’s just my 2c
I don't know how much is true but it seems the web makes too many things too heavy available too early and often.

You see kids discussing existential concepts, business, .. at 13yo. I'm not sure previous generation were focused on these instead of just coasting along for fun. It's nice to make people more mature but too early and too much seems a failure.
they will be skilled at something although im not sure it will be anything to do with socializing. and saying that outcasts will just be more likely to blossom because of it is just speculation.

at a certain point in history man began to eat plants and adopt a sedentary agricultural lifestyle. there were many people who were made sick by eating plants and very little meat or fat. very, very sick. there are still echos of it in the population today. was it a positive thing for all the skills of the past to be thrown away and a large chunk of people to be sacrificed because they werent compatible with the new way? sometimes a societal shift eliminates an entire class of people. youre wrong because you try to paint it like its zero sum for all classes of people. in reality, if it is zero sum its only because what we lose in sacrifice we gain in progress. can you believe this has been going on for ten thousand years and still it doesnt really have a name?

drop 800 calories and watch your weight for a month, you should be able to get a pretty good idea how much.
I'm not sure why you would want to restrict calories in your case? Even if the work on fasting from animal models carries over to humans beyond the benefits of reducing metabolic syndrome (which is unclear), being underweight is definitely a risk factor for all cause mortality.

If anything it kinda sounds like your natural 'set point' already has you calorie restricted insofar as it would.be beneficial

> GitHub identified the activity on April 12, 2022, and notified Salesforce on April 13, 2022, at which time we began our investigation. As a result, on April 16, 2022, we revoked all GitHub integration OAuth tokens, preventing customers from deploying apps from GitHub through the Heroku Dashboard or via automation.

The three days after being notified to actually revoke the tokens isn't ideal either. Surely if GitHub comes to you and warns you of suspected unauthorised access you'd spend a very limited amount of time and then revoke the credentials to be on the safe side.
Google requires a phone number to sign up these days, and you'd need to isolate google & tailscale in a private window or a firefox privacy container. If you use chrome you'd also get auto-logged in to chrome with your google account.

Excerpt:

Mischkowski’s own research has uncovered a sinister side-effect of paracetamol. For a long time, scientists have known that the drug blunts physical pain by reducing activity in certain brain areas, such as the insular cortex, which plays an important role in our emotions. These areas are involved in our experience of social pain, too – and intriguingly, paracetamol can make us feel better after a rejection.

Mischkowski wondered whether painkillers might be making it harder to experience empathy

And recent research has revealed that this patch of cerebral real-estate is more crowded than anyone previously thought, because it turns out the brain’s pain centres also share their home with empathy.

For example, fMRI (functional magnetic resonance imaging) scans have shown that the same areas of our brain become active when we’re experiencing “positive empathy” –pleasure on other people’s behalf – as when we’re experiencing pain.

Given these facts, Mischkowski wondered whether painkillers might be making it harder to experience empathy. Earlier this year, together with colleagues from Ohio University and Ohio State University, he recruited some students and spilt them into two groups. One received a standard 1,000mg dose of paracetamol, while the other was given a placebo. Then he asked them to read scenarios about uplifting experiences that had happened to other people, such as the good fortune of “Alex”, who finally plucked up the courage to ask a girl on a date (she said yes).

The results revealed that paracetamol significantly reduces our ability to feel positive empathy – a result with implications for how the drug is shaping the social relationships of millions of people every day. Though the experiment didn’t look at negative empathy – where we experience and relate to other people’s pain – Mischkowski suspects that this would also be more difficult to summon after taking the drug.
I lived my teen years in a collapsing post-communist economy, with hyperinflation (the kind that can add 4 zeros to prices in a span of a few years), massive unemployment and deep real-wage reduction. My mother struggled with a minimum wage that translated to about 80 dollars and two children, well bellow the absolute poverty line, and my father was mostly absent. In my high school and first year at the university, there were frequent days were I had almost nothing to eat at home and most days I had no cash at all, not even to buy a bread roll or pay for some copies of lecture material - so I copied them by hand. Wore the same clothes for years, passed down from my elder brother.

To put it in perspective, the political polarization around me was leading people to violence orders of magnitude larger than the events of January 6, with multiple governments toppled by angry crowds, inter-ethnic violence, workplace harassments of dissenters. Don't even start me on the state of the environment.

Yet, when I look back, my teen memories are not about poverty, hunger or political turbulence. That was just the way things were, we adapted. I had my ragtag crew in which I was accepted. We just didn't care about politics or the environment all that much.

The most vivid good or bad memories that I hold all have to do with social interaction, acceptance or rejection and public humiliation. We certainly didn't exhibit, as a generation, the signs of a mental disease epidemic, the fist time I heard about a suicide in my age cohort was of a fellow student in the later years at one of most competitive universities in the country.

Don't get me wrong, this economic enviroment devastated adults, and we had some of the highest levels of suicide and alcoholism in the world. But it just didn't affect us teens specifically, because we had no earlier reference to how things were supposed to be.
I got the itch a few times - I hear OTC antihistamines can reduce this or make it cease completely, but I didn't think it was that annoying, it was easy to ignore for me. I got insane nausea one time and puked - but I still thought it was fun a time lol.

I think that hot feeling is part of the same itch reaction, so antihistamines might have helped. But yeah I can attest to feeling foggy days after.
Again, can't speak for OP, but I doubt it was intended as an example of a positive interaction - rather it's meant to be an indication that there was NOT a negative interaction. Again, those words are just examples of what could be said. They weren't saying "This is absolutely the words we used and built an entire decision of someone off of" or even anything close to "This is the range we specifically had".

I get the impression everything was relatively informal in the process they described. In forums like these, it's about looking at the spirit of what they were trying to say and get across.
Those are for purely religious reasons though and have nothing to do with health concerns, so I'm not sure what you're getting at?
Even if he was (and he'd be a ridiculous taxi driver if the first thing he did was sharing his political opinions [though that's not unheard of, I've been riding with that kind of service provider]), not immediately going ballistic would be a quality I expect hires to have.

Coincidentally the SOC report that would have covered this incident is no longer available on their website, but I wouldn't be holding my breath.

Neat, you do the math yourself and then render the tris/quads in canvas? I did something like that recently (in C/SDL, later RayLib). I found it amusing that to get performant 2D rendering you have to use a 3D API, so my "software rendered" 3D engine which just uses the gfx api for 2D draw calls ends up using 3D for the 2D under the hood...

There's at least one (great) game written like that though, Need for Madness with a custom 3D engine and just using java's 2D gfx api for rendering.
This is such a terrible take. The "ills" of the modern world aren't that bad in terms of actually affecting your day to day. I guarantee unplugging and just going outside would make 99% of teens much much happier.
Most kids here get phones around 9/10 when they start walking to and from school alone, so before they really start using social media so it isn't a sudden one day they are using it, next day they aren't thing. Also children are changing for other reasons hitting puberty, generally growing older etc, and there is other stuff going on in their lives - cause and effect can be hard to pinpoint. There are also grey areas - is messaging your friends social media? Watching videos on YouTube?

I would suggest to look onto Delta Lake (https://delta.io/) - it's built on top of the Parquet, but has advantages over the plain parquet:

- transactions - you don't get a garbage in your table if your write failed

- supports update/delete/merge operations (in some implementations)

- metadata allows faster discovery of data, for example, if you have a lot of partitions on the cloud storage.

- metadata also allow to support features like data skipping, when you can filter out files that doesn't contain necessary data

- time travel - you can get back to previous versions of the tables

I worked at a Fortune 500 and the ladder was floating in a mist of opaque fog, with inexplicably shifting rungs.

Upside was that many of us just said screw it and focused on the work. Downside was that many said screw it and went to other companies where they could at least grok the ladder.
> Being judgemental always seemed immature to me

This might just be a matter of vocabulary. I come from a tradition where "judgment" means pretty much the same thing as "inference", and it's not possible that inferential reasoning is "immature", so we probably disagree about definitions.

> At what point have you made so much sense of anything that you can make a defining principle out of it?

Well, there are certain fairly uncontroversial things. For example, I think that an argument's conclusions should follow, according to the rules of inference, from that argument's premises. This is just applying deduction to everyday life, as a principle. Of course, as with many real-life applications of general principles, it comes with caveats; in the case of deduction, for example, it calls for an understanding that most things in life don't lend themselves to formal, deductive arguments.

Nevertheless, the point here is that I haven't made "so much sense of anything", but have borrowed the best (as far as I can tell) tools my culture has provided me with, in order to make sense of things. At this general level of description, it should be recognizable that I'm talking about things like math, science, and many others.

> Is it a desire for deeper stability?

Sure, that's part of it. This is why medicine exists, for instance. The human desire to normalize the wild oscillations of nature is why we make clothing, build shelters, grow crops, etc etc.

> I never got the advantage of saying "well now MY model fits this pattern, PERIOD!".

When confronted with human goals, some models succeed, and some don't. A theory of infection that doesn't lead to vaccines will, probably, succumb to the brutal fact that "this pattern of thinking isn't useful".

Most companies are not tech companies. They may not have the expertise or ability to make informed procurement decisions. In order to make a decision on (say) which ERP software to buy, they’ll often work with Analysts at firms like Gartner to understand the pros and cons of software in a specific segment. Think of companies like Gartner as a concierge G2 or ProductHunt experience, minus all the spammy crap and with a lot more handholding and support.

The Magic Quadrant (and other similar products) act as a conversation starter and product validation that can give the buyer some confidence that there is some semblance of support, because their ass is on the line if a product they bought turns out to be garbage.

This is an interesting take. I'd assume iOS could just be considered an OEM variant of a mobile OS. I switched to samsung, and its UX is pretty consistent.

Would android's additions still seem like annoyance if stock (and every variant) included those additions?

Capitalism (the way I understand it, free market and all) does not imply participating in bad faith. The fact that in the West there are bad-faith players that take advantage of the system does not mean it is normal. See the grocery example. It works for everybody, suppliers, sellers and consumers, as long as no one abuses the system. However, if one does want to go that route, it’s achievable; in a small market a single participant can ruin things for everyone, and in a larger one multiple participants can do the same by acting in accord.

It looks like capitalism is sometimes taken to mean an extreme zero-sum form of free market where everybody is out to win at the expense of others. Proponents of centralized dispensation by an all-powerful government often bring this up, but is that the mainstream meaning of the term?

For the record, I don’t think the requirement of market participants to act in good faith is a bug. I believe the existence of malicious actors is not fundamentally inevitable, and mutual trust is empowering.
