Ask HN: Is Post Covid depression real?
A couple of months back I got Covid for the first time and while I recovered physically in about 2 weeks , mentally I feel fatigued and depressed .
I feel a sense of hopelessness and burnout and keep thinking about the death of my father early in the Covid days and a close friend who killed himself from depression after getting Covid. Through the last 2 years I have trudged along working from home , learning new things , developing a hobby for cooking and raising my kids while managing to not get Covid.
However since getting it two months back , I have felt very depressed and can barely get out of bed and do any work. I am trying to understand if it’s external factors like an oncoming recession fears or the going back to normal or if medically Covid does cause bad depression . If it does what might be the reasons for it?
But why would rich people or corporations be in the market for a house if they couldn't rent them out? Especially the current above asking price cash offers from Blackrock and the like? That total number of families needing a house might be the same but the demand from entities with unlimited budgets and the ability to forecast not making their money back for ten plus years evaporates.
Sports are better, but I think encouraging competition and tribal urges are a waste of time in general. Better to encourage collaboration and self expression.

To support Hitler Stalin ordered German Communists to not join forces with Social Democrats.
Congrats on the hard work and I wish you all the best.

Just one comment though: Looking at all what Uber is going through at the moment, I'm not sure you're doing yourself a favor with the comparison.

All the best!
I invite you to go back and re-read my comment, because I never claimed that Schumer event was what caused them to start working on a new system to replace the star, I said "their customer base did not reaction "properly" with the "correct" opinions to the shift in direction of neflix original programming and comedy specials, coming to head with the widely panned Amy Schumer"

The "incorrect reviews" predated Schumer, but as you said Schumer was the "we have had enough with our customers giving us feedback we do not like" moment

It was clear for a LONG LONG time before Schumer that at least 50% of netflix customer base was not happy with the direction the content was going... The ever decreasing subscriber count is a reflection of this as well

As to the "everyone that disagrees with me is alt-right nazi trolls" charge that people like to bet around anytime a movie, TV Show, or comedy special etc is not approved of by the audience is frankly non-sense.

The "media" coverage around the "review bombing" provided not actual evidence of such a thing happening, and unlike sites like Rotten Tomatoes, one had to be an actual customer of Netflix to review it so their is less opportunity for that than say a rotten Tomatoes which I personally think the "problem" is over stated even for those sites,

Instead it is gate keepers being out of touch with the consumers but they refuse to admit that so it is not them that is out of touch no it has to be "bots and trolls" or "alt-right" or some thing other than the actual fans, consumers, etc rejecting their project
These headlines are a bit sensational, no? I believe Musk has an out no matter what, it’s just a matter of weather that out costs him 1B or not.

It'd help to have such a thing for future job searches.
unforgettable movie, huge cultural impact. Wouldn't call it fascism though, it was free market capitalism, with the private sector corporation Omni Consumer Products (OCP) fulfilling the role of a valiant but bankrupted state
Would make more sense to do exactly that.
I'm much more myself and think more clearly when I'm not dragged down by other people. I'm one of those that thrives in solitude. The pandemic really made this clear to me.

"Hell is other people" — because of how we are unable to escape the watchful gaze of everyone around us. "By there mere appearance of the Other," says Sartre in Being and Nothingness, "I am put in the position of passing judgment on myself as on an object, for it is as an object that I appear to the Other."

Mexican food in general would be.

Taco Bell would be if a large corporation operated a bunch of kebab shops, but used the absolute cheapest ingredients possible (with said ingredients largely being precooked and prepackaged such that anyone with so much as basic motor skills can slap a kebab together in 15 seconds), "Europeanized" it until there's only superficial resemblance to a kebab at best, and then sold it for similarly cheap prices from drive-thru fast food restaurants.
Maybe don't throw -isms around so lightly, eh?
Feedback: You want users to both post bounties and solve bounties, so don't separate them. (when signing up I had to choose if I want to create xor hunt bounties)
Then activate the setting and enjoy. If what you actually want is silent manual updates not just for the update notifications to go away then it's the perfect option for you.
Right, and it avoids some tax issues later as you have owned and held them since you started (jurisdiction dependent).

Reverse vesting is pretty common for founding employees, or near then, also, ime. The only problem is if the share value isn’t justifiable very low, it can be too expensive.

The moment you raise any significant amount , the implied valuation may make this impractical.
They weren't owned by Activision-- Activision was only the publisher for Destiny, and never acquired the studio. When the publishing agreement came up for renewal, Bungie and Activision agreed to go their separate ways, for their own reasons. It's likely that Bungie wanted more control and more independence from the partnership.

Bungie's aversion to being owned stems from their Microsoft days, when they yearned to be free from having to make Halo sequels.

However, the reality is that game development is expensive. Destiny doesn't have a monthly subscription fee, so the income for the studio drops dramatically between paid content expansions. It's tough to keep that going without outside support, given the cost of creating said content.

(Obligatory disclaimer: I work for a division of Activision, but these opinions are solely my own)
Decline in metacognition seems like a likely symptom too
the Abstract refers to " data for decreased groups" and "a study of 1679 decreased men and women".

I wouldn't rule it out.
> One of the few valid criticisms (not to gush, but I’m a fan to be sure) of the original is that Vicious is a thinly written villain.

This I don't agree with, not that Vicious is or isn't thinly written, but that it is valuable or an improvement that he is "fleshed out". Spike's narrative in the source is built on his memories and recollection of people, not who they are. The lack of dimensionality has a purpose. Jet has a similar issue and both of them are forced to confront the gap between their recollection of people and what those people actually thought/felt, and that's big because both of them have staked major parts of their personhood on the ghost of their nostalgia and self-centered sense of tragedy. Finding out the world is other people doing other things was the point and you can't recover the impact by removing the entire mystery.

As I said elsewhere, Bebop is more related to 70s New Hollywood than the American adaptation is, Coppola's The Conversation has a similar bent where someone is haunted by their past but misinterprets the present and future on behalf of their own guilt only to discover reality had nothing to do with a POV that was always their own misperception. If you actually followed all the side characters around the movie would be pointless.

I thought this news would get more feedback. I do prefer the rich to pay taxes, and the good goverments elected by the good people to decide what to do with the money, but failing that this seems to be the next good thing the rich can do with their money.

Much of this information is missing from the homepage. I did not really understand your product until I read the above description. “Uber for Coding” just doesn’t explain it to me; That sounds like a 1099 contract job? But clearly it is not that. So what is it?

Also: is the any way to use this if my code is not open sourced on GitHub?

Yeah there needs to be an explanation of this on the homepage. Comparing it to Uber just makes me think this is a job hunting site for 1099 contract positions.

My understanding from the initial acquisition news cycle is that Sony acquired Bungie in order to teach the rest of their studios how to make effectively monetized live service games as they are gearing up to make that a key part of their portfolio going forward.

>But movies and video games I have severe analysis paralysis that leads to a lot of browsing and no actual watching or playing.

I suffered of this problem as well and I believe I managed to solve it.

## Netflix

- I only open Netflix when I know what I'm going to watch.

- When I don't know what to watch it means I'm not in the mood for anything I'm currently planning to watch. So I don't open Netflix, I go to YouTube instead.

- When I know what I want to watch (these days I'm binging Mr. Robot) I favourite things that catch my interest while using the app. This is the only time for new content discovery within Netflix.

## Steam

It might sound ridiculous but I've found that to power through I need to approach games like work. I have to dedicate time for it - a weekend, or even take a vacation (I found that the time around the end of the year works best for me). Since it is something I plan, I discuss what to play with my friends and make a decision beforehand.

When the vacation comes, I make myself play at least 8 hours a day on the same regime as if I was working. After a few days I get into it and then I can continue the game in some normal occasional schedule as well. I've been able to enjoy the Mass Effect games in this way the last winter and Witcher 3 the year before that. I don't think I've managed to enjoy a single player storytelling game to such extent in the decade before that.

I try to avoid opening my 500+ game 80% unplayed Steam library. When I don't know what to play, I don't open Steam, I open YouTube and watch some let's play instead.

So let's look at the Trident system for a second (used on subs).

This is a MIRV weapon (Multiple independently targetable reentry vehicle)
Reentry refers to "space".

This gives them a tremendous range.

Triden's posted range is 12,000 KM.

Using "Toronto" to estimate distances as it is on Lake Ontario:
Toronto to Moscow - 7,400 KM
Toronto to Beijing - 10,583 KM

Therefor a sub in the great lakes with a trident system can reach pretty much any key "target".
Please stop saying hot drinks cool you down
The extent of Wasm's availability on browsers is quite big right now. Both iOS and Android and all major desktop browsers. That sort of reach is what I meant by the term "the browser" used generically. Different from being an extension to one or a few browsers or something like that.

Not true and not how the deal is worded. $1B is closer to best case scenario.
It's a wrapper with a much less obtuse command line interface, unified across different architectures, covering iptables+tc, ipfw, and pfctl as much as it can. It's a helper tool to make the obscure qdisc syntax readable for when you want to intentionally slow down your network (rather than provide traffic shaping to make your crappy network more stable).
You need some amount of brotherly conflict and competition in order to have healthy collaboration. Otherwise, you just get the pretense of agreement and a slow slouch into frustration and resentment.

By the time of the KPD-SPD split, Stalin was not in power. In fact, the KPD split from the SPD in 1918, when the USSR was still being born. And far from taking orders from the Bolsheviks, they actually had a fair amount of influence on them. The idea that they split because the meek SPD was afraid of the Stalinists is revisionist history, and the SPD itself at various points in its history was far from above purges and political violence

The reason the KPD split from the SPD is that the SPD supported WW1 and the KPD were against the war. The reason they became mortal enemies was because in 1920 the SPD and the Freikorps killed many KPD members, from then on there was no hope at reconciliation.
Generally yes. The delta tests for several classes of changes are baked in heavy processes and their execution is regularly audited. Maybe some startup cowboys see that differently, but then in their cars people are harmed while doing whatever...

> This feels like an incel talking point.

I mean, it is... because it's a fairly consistent finding across all dating apps. It's not uncommon for women to get hundreds of matches, whereas it's extremely common for 'average' men to get nothing but bots.

Whether this is indicative of people's "natural" behaviour is somewhat irrelevant because perception is reality, and the reality for many young men is that they don't feel attractive or desired by anyone. Swiping right hundreds of times and not receiving a single match is incredibly dejecting; of course, many don't realize that they're being manipulated and that "Tinder matches" != objective desirability.

> Especially considering that tinder controls algorithm and will just do whatever makes the most money.

Spot on.

I think it's also worth mentioning that the Match Group, which owns Tinder, has been aggressively purchasing dating apps and monetizing them in ways that intentionally sabotaged people's ability to find a partner. I believe the success of Tinder has also lead to them copying the same shallow and problematic mechanics (quickly swiping yes/no based on a picture) into other apps which previously tried to find meaningful matches for people.

Online dating has rapidly replaced traditional methods of meeting romantic partners. For many people, this (intentionally) dysfunctional system is all they've ever known, and is considered normal.
Not necessarily. JSC has 32 bit integer fast paths. So it depends on the engine.
- Carbs: potatoes, rice, pasta (yes really, the common element here is high
water content; the other stuff you put on these can of course make a big difference)

- Dairy: Greek yogurt or cottage cheese are usually part of my breakfast. I'll have a whey protein shake in milk most days, since I'm also trying to build muscle; liquids don't normally "count" toward satiety in the same way, though milk itself is complicated and contributes at least a little more toward satiety because the protein makes gastric emptying slower.

- Meats: Most unprocessed meats, as well as some deli meats (e.g. roast beef or ham but not salami), are great on satiety per calorie IMO, even if not usually considered "lean". I guess don't make a habit out of prime rib? I'd credit "plan to have a large amount of meat for most dinners" as the most important single change I made, perhaps in part because it makes me less likely to have something from a restaurant for dinner instead but also because meat is just so satisfying without being too energy-dense. Eggs count here too, ~2 cal/gram.

- Veggies: anything is great, but my favorites are brussels sprouts, sugar snap peas, spinach, asparagus, and corn. This won't be news to anyone but salads are usually a good choice if you're eating from a restaurant.

- Fruits: anything is great, but my favorites are strawberries, watermelon, bananas, and oranges (I prefer clementines because they're easy to eat)

- Junk food: I find ice cream sandwiches (~150 calories) are a convenient way to sate my sweet tooth in a way that isn't ridiculous, even if they're not really low energy density. Also, fancy dark chocolate is hard to overeat.

And a special mention to making my own coffee (with generous milk and sugar-free flavored syrup, ~60 calories per cup) rather than getting lattes from a coffee shop (~150 to 200 calories).
You miss almost everything, actually. The only thing you retain by watching it at 1.5x speed is the dialogue and some sort of vague approximation of the visuals. I'm not suggesting that you shouldn't be able to enjoy tv as you do, but you're definitely incorrect to assert you're missing "absolutely nothing."
> For each individual state, the result is having a much smaller influence on the election overall

So do it in small groups. You just have to convince a comparable set of red and blue states, and it'll be easier to convince them that you'll both win some and lose some than to convince the red states to make themselves irrelevant. Such is the nature of compromise--find common ground, both sides win and lose a little.

Of course, if you solely care about the fact some votes count less than others--which was the underlying argument against the EC--then just having your state allocate proportionally improves the lives of your fellow citizens now, and it's for the greater good.

> Instead, there's a better solution in the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact[0]

This is just a constitutional amendment with less steps and slightly lower threshold.

It's not coincidence that blue states are in it and not red. The red states will not sign on to this because it would make them irrelevant. A blue state would not allocate their EC votes proportional to their state results because it would reduce the blue party's influence, even though it would be fairer to their citizens.
yes, that was definitely fascism ;-)
