Does anyone know what depression is?

You don't take a blood test or get a brain scan or anything like that.

Instead, you do this: https://www.psychiatry.org/psychiatrists/practice/dsm/educat...

> These patient assessment measures were developed to be administered at the initial patient interview and to monitor treatment progress, thus serving to advance the use of initial symptomatic status and patient reported outcome (PRO) information, as well as the use of “anchored” severity assessment instruments. Instructions, scoring information, and interpretation guidelines are included.

From that page, here's how you measure how severe your depression is: https://www.psychiatry.org/File%20Library/Psychiatrists/Prac...

These are the "guidelines" in the article.

> Trouble falling or staying asleep, or sleeping too much

Am I having trouble staying asleep because my alarm is going off? How much sleep is "too much"?

> Feeling bad about yourself—or that you are a failure or have let yourself or your family down

What about people that have let themselves and family down? Is that not valid?

> Poor appetite or overeating

Relative to what? I'm not being fed per gram with a feed chart. I have no idea how I'd answer this.

> Thoughts that you would be better off dead or of hurting yourself in some way

This one's a trick question, because I think it's "nearly every day" for most people for at least a brief second per day? But say that and you might get shipped off to in-patient, so I know the answer is "never".

According to this thing, I probably have severe depression. I don't think I'm depressed though? There's no way to tell.

A better way to look at it might be that anyone who talks to a mental health professional has a good likelihood of leaving with a depression diagnosis, an SSRI prescription, and a follow up appointment.
deconvolution, but it's more art than science because the problem is ill conditioned and blows up without regularization-- particularly if any part of the spike is overexposed (which it usually as you only notice the spikes on extremely bright stars).
What do you recommend instead. I have had some measure of success on a medium but don’t like it’s current direction and need to find alternatives.

Here's a few very consequential decisions that were taken under Musk: liquid methane instead of liquid hydrogen, same engines for first and second stage, full cycle combustion engine, usage of steel for Starship, and of course, reusable rockets. None of these decisions were close to being obvious. When you have hundreds of very passionate and talented engineers working for you, you'll be bombarded with lots of options. If you don't become a mini-expert yourself, you will start delegating lots of decisions, and the final result may or may not be optimal. Just look at Boeing.

This is wonderful and incredibly insightful.

My grandfather undertook months long journey to perform Hajj in the 1960's, travelling by so many different means. Carrying dried fruit, bread and meat with them, it truly was a once in a lifetime trip.

Having performed the Hajj in 2014, there is a sense of nostalgia for what it was but equally the practically of accommodating millions of pilgrims from across the world has led to a number of changes.

In University I developed a simulation and model of crowd evacuation based on certain rites of the Hajj. Something which was previously not an issue.
This is actually a wider issue with political discussion in countries with two dominant parties. There are parties who frequently use “political description words” such as (regex notation to save on duplicates) “democra.?”, “republic.?”, “liberal”, “labour”, “social.?”, “conservative”, and many more. As a consequence of this people begin to develop associations with certain kinds of political views with the full or shorthand names of the political parties that promote them so we get discussions about “Republican/Labour/Liberal/Democrat/Conservative policies” that grow increasingly divorced (from the terms that are needed to discuss them like “liberal” and “conservative” … which generates confusion.

There are fundamentally, multiple axises upon which you can measure political policy, views, goals, parties, etc. A few examples of widely understood ones being “progressive/conservative”, “authoritarian/libertarian”, “collectivist/anarchist”, and some even cover similar things such as “socialist/capitalist” which has philosophical overlap “collectivist/individualist” but is not the same, being obviously more focused on the economic structures than basic political philosophies of collectivism vs individualism.

All of this is to say that boiling politics down to a simplistic “left/right” spectrum does nothing but confuse the issues.
You just answered it by yourself.

In common law jurisdictions contracts generally require consideration. Consideration is a technical legal term which roughly means that both sides need to have some kind of obligation. E.g. maybe I give my labour and you give me money.

One weird consequence you used to get were friendly entities leading things to each other for trivial rents (e.g. one Oxford college might lease land to another for a few pence a year) instead of for free so that there is consideration.

In the Ring Nebula image, the two galaxies just kind of casually hanging out on the left side (just above midline), one square on, the other edge on, is pretty impressive.

There are a few others to be found (I suspect image duration is much shorter than for the Deep Field).

Devemoped countries have underinvested in natural gas infrastructure compared to its importance in keeping their shiny new renewable-heavy grids actually operating though - and in particular ESG campaigners have been very successful at blocking investment in natural gas production in most of the Western democratic world. Which has just resulted in heavy dependencies on imports from unstable dictatorships since there's no real alternative to fossil fuels yet. I know the Guardian here in the UK has been pushing for a continued block on new natural gas production that they admit will only stop it being produced in stable democratic countries, even well after Russia's invasion of Ukraine demonstrated the actual consequences of this.

That's quite an impressive report and it's good to see someone's taking this seriously, even if they might end up ignored by whoever the agriculture secretary of the day is.

> but they might have to switch out their caviar for something else

That's frivolous: the report talks about meeting 100% of caloric requirements from grain in an emergency scenario. The mostly-bread diet would be comparable or worse than WW2 rationing, it's not just luxuries that would be impacted.

For purposes of comparison with Sri Lanka, I also note: "The UK imports roughly 50% of its ammonium nitrate, with 75% of imports for fertiliser use coming from the EU (primarily from Lithuania, Poland, and the Netherlands) and the remaining 25% from Georgia and Russia."
We should also keep arround long-term support releases of older versions of user-facing applications so that people can update at their own convenience and not at a point determined by some release manager. With server software and libraries no one expects everyone to upgrade immediately to new major versions but somehow this is an acceptable expectation from end users.
I'll give them a listen. I've tried to listen to a few things like Marillion and Dream Theater before, but it didn't seem to me that they get anywhere close to something like Yes' Close to the Edge. I'd be happy to find some other band that maybe does, especially if they are even newer.
For other people reading. I like everything you said about tw. I also can't believe I ended up on opensuse and KDE (with a modified bismuth tiling setup).

But to me the killer app of tw is btrfs snapshots and rollbacks via snapper. (It can be configured on other systems too but the tw installer takes care of the subvolumes nicely)

Even if that’s the case, and that’s a big if, it’s not enough in and of itself to let him out of the deal. He needs to prove a material adverse effect of something like 20-40% of the value of the company - then the court may let him off the hook.

Another avenue for him might be if the banks pull their funding, then the deal falls through and he may just have to eat the $1bn penalty (but that can’t have been initiated or influenced by him).

He made an impulsive decision, the market went down making him regret it, and since then he’s been trying to squirm out of the deal he signed by grasping at straws and in the process hurting the company he promised to buy. He’s in trouble, and some potential minor discrepancy in how Twitter has represented their users will not absolve him of it.

Pricing for web3 projects is a bit more complicated than getting a product from AWS. As you participate in a specialized economy it is like asking what a Danish stock costs from the US standpoint. First you need to buy DKK, and thereafter the stock might be volatile and have another price. (Spoiler alert, Danish stocks are cheap now :) )
I think that is caused more by there not being a demand for news about random bedrooms. If you look more at social media if you are at someone's house and take a selfie, you aren't going to ask your friend if having their room as your background is okay.
I think people are overly focused on the legal proceedings here. Obviously the only option Twitter has when it goes to court is to say "Hey, he breached the contract, we want you to force him to comply with the contract" but they don't have to take that line when actually negotiating with Elon Musk.

It may well be that Twitter thinks that their case is strong but that the legal proceedings present risk and damage the company's ability to operate in the short term so it's more in their favour to cut a deal where they get some payout from Musk. The only really strong thing I think they'll need (other than cash) is that Musk agrees not to attempt to buy twitter again.

The reason I say that is because without the deal TWTR's fair market value is probably in the $20Bn region, and so almost any amount of money they can extract from Musk to walk away would allow him to come back and buy the company cheaper than the current deal - and that would just look absurd for twitter. Say for example they say "give us $10Bn to walk away" Musk could pay that, turn around and offer to buy the company again at $25Bn and probably succeed. So the only real way to protect themselves is to prevent him doing that.

I imagine most datacenters will be jumping through many hoops to make sure they have power through any cuts. Things like paying premiums for electricity, backup diesel generators, etc. This is their bread and butter. There is of course a chance that the worst case will occur, but honestly I wouldn't spend too much energy focusing on it.
I did not finish th article, but I did not see a direct mention on the presence of parental or early-life teacher involvement as a catalyst. Feynman always worked his dad into his stories as a basis of his personality and quest for seeing under surface image. I had a critical teacher to whet interest in a subject, and the timing to be exposed to computers very early. If the Martians trace to a particular time and place, credit their environment for allowing them to indulge their genius and protecting/encouraging them while doing so.

Such people are statistical rarities. When a handful clump together, it’s unbelievable. Imagine what we’re missing when it occurs in non fertile soil.
Pros and Cons of Recruiting

Because I already had in mind to create the custom Flask app as a self service subscription management portal for my customers, and while I was coding it, I had this a-ha moment when I discovered admin staff could just be using the same app in "god-mode".

That is, I unified the concepts of "customer portal" and back "office tooling". No more need for a Retool replacement.

And another reason: Appsmith is not as good as Retool (yet?) and is a memory hogging Java process. Good riddance, after all!

See the section on meat, dairy, fruits, vegetables, etc... It would be a decent diet.

Of course, in the minutes waiting for the bomb to detonate one can only shelter and hide, the guide also mentions this. The guide is more for how localities can mount rescue operations within the first 12-24 hours after detonation and before Federal Aid would arrive.

While this is true, I think a consumer gLinux (i.e. a Debian spin with support from Google) would be more appealing to Vendors than Ubuntu and similar just because of brand recognition.

I think Google had the opportunity to accidentally displace some of the Windows monopoly, not by doing a land grab a la ChromeOS or Android, but instead by just releasing a version of something they use themselves which would be appealing to like minded developers and companies that would follow Google's 'stamp of approval'.

They both are frauds.

Twitter has been fudging for years.

Elon being disingenuous about the entire deal.

Twitter is arguing in their case “even though we had no reason to, we were still providing your team with everything and all data” while at the same time definitely not doing that.

They flat out admit to refusing to share how the sampling was calculated for their mDAU number for the past 5 years.

They say “it’s a super secret sauce to our success and Elon said he would start his own Twitter if this deal doesn’t happen and that is why we won’t share it but can share the entirety of Twitter data instead.”

Oof. Chop heads at Twitter and fire the lawyers.

Don’t have to be a rocket scientist to read between those lines…

Just feel bad for the normal every single day employees. If you’re not jumping ship, you are going down whichever way this lawsuit/deal closes.

That might have been true at some point, but with all the "we have to fight Russia" rhetoric they have put that food security in jeopardy. It's by far not the only western country that does so.

I have all those things open in my work setup, but I also have 3 or 4 different chat apps that don't run on linux, a few music apps that don't run on linux, a ton of Adobe software that doesn't run on linux, a stock trading app that doesn't run on linux, Kindle, a huge number of random productivity apps and games that don't run on Linux, the list goes on.

Having to deal with half-baked Linux alternatives or mess with a Windows compatibility layer sounds like a total nightmare. I also think it doesn't support modern DRM so you're SOL if you want to put on Netflix or something in the background.
