Let's keep some perspective here: They're mildly better over an inactive placebo, come with many very serious side effects, and are dangerous to withdraw from. Plus, "normally functioning" is a very questionable term to use.

Also, many psychiatrists prescribe them out like M&Ms, stating that they "believe" in them. Meanwhile - and this is the point of the article which you seem to have missed despite it being right there in the headline - we have no idea how they "work", just some very iffy guesses.

My main point was we could have avoided half a century of massive coal usage. 40% of global power is still from coal.

I wonder if it's related to the broader trend of lowered resting metabolic rate in humans. Not necessarily that the latter causes the former, but that some mechanism is driving both: an adaptation that tells the organism that it's time to hunker down, avoid unnecessary activity/risk, and save up calories.

I've experienced a lot of depression in my life and it feels fairly obvious that the chemical imbalance state -- the feeling of extreme torpor, lack of motivation to do things, negativity about future prospects, and inability to enjoy anything -- is well downstream of the root cause, which is a sort of "software problem" that looks like this:

The problem is that there is a mis-alignment between the reality of daily life and the software my brain has constructed for handling and processing daily life. The software doesn't give good results on the inputs: for instance, not having a good script for what to do with time to feel happy or like myself, or not knowing how to navigate social situations to get positive and fulfilling results. The result is the brain gives up on the software and stops trying because it's become aware it's not working but doesn't have any better ideas.

If I was programming my brain, a better strategy would obviously be to switch to "explore" mode and start rapidly iterating on the software to try to find something that works better. But evidently the brain doesn't work that way, and the negative feedback from real life causes it to slip into depression and torpor.

So there's a chemical imbalance, yeah, but it's not the root cause. If a "chemical disposition to depression" is anything, it's this tendency to give up on the software instead of iterating on it.

(IRL, "iterating on the software" looks like a person making big changes in their life: quitting jobs, moving, leaving relationships, picking up new hobbies.. you know, all of the stuff people advise you to do to get out of a funk.
"Changing variables until something works".)

SSRIs, at least the ones I've taken, seem to work by reducing the severity of the (bad results from software) -> (downregulate energy levels) step; in particular, the reduce the amount of fixation my brain gives on the bad results and makes me not worry so much about them, which -- presumably -- reduces the amount of the downregulation that results, which prevents slipping into the extreme-depressive state where you have no willpower to try anything new that might help.

In particular I observe that my natural tendency is for negative social interactions to trigger a negative feedback loop of self-doubt and frustration that spirals out of control, and Lexapro seems to reduce the coefficient on the feedback loop so that it dissipates instead of amplifies.

(I'm not all that confident in this model but it's my best guess so far. I'll also add that a lot of my depressive states seem to have social anxiety as the main trigger, so it might be that this is phenomenologically quite different from sorts of depression that are, I guess, "intrinsic", rather than caused by something else.)

I thought showcasing a single front page to everybody and rotating it every hour means the seller gets a massive spike in views once and then they are back to the dirty alleys of the search algorithm.

It would have made more sense for the employee to spend their day finding good collections and adding them to a list. Then whenever someone loads a page a random item from the list is used. Old items would expire from the list after a week or two. This lets the employee do their job 9-5 and spreads out the load on the people who get featured on the front page.

Portugal and Spain lived within their means energy wise, and have enormous renewables and hydro storage capabilities (and while they both burn some fossil gas; they have plans to rapidly finish moving to renewables by the end of the decade; Portugal burns no coal, Spain is phasing it out). France and Germany are in their own special hell because they prioritized politics (nuclear and coal, respectively) over energy security.

Edit: I wrote a reply to a deleted comment, so enumerating the comment and reply here.

> France and Germany are also industrial powerhouses. They require a lot more power and a lot more natural gas specifically for chemical precursors to produce stuff like fertilizer and silicone.

Until suitable alternatives are found, there will always be a minimum amount of fossil gas required for industrial processes. But, BUT, that doesn’t mean you can’t lean into renewables, storage, and transmission to offset as much fossil generation as possible (prioritizing fossil gas for industry, and staying within your fossil gas infrastructure and LNG import constraints).

The "chemical imbalance" model is a strange way to go about treatment. There's no objective assessment, and no feedback path to confirm it's working.

Imagine this.

A teenaged boy and his mother show up at the doctor's. The boy is in tears, and says his arm hurts. The doctor comes out, and is terribly busy, and prescribes a cast without X-Rays, an examination, or even asking a history.

The family is terribly busy, and doesn't get back to the doctor. The boy says his arm still hurts, and isn't getting better. The parents are firm, the cast must stay on, because the doctor prescribed it.

Later, the arm becomes deeply infected, and the boy goes to intensive care when his body becomes septic. While they decide to treat this as a laceration and infection instead of a break, there is still no assessment or feedback. Just more medication. (They were right this time, but by chance. The cast still stays on after this, by the way.)

This is exactly what I saw happen -- except replace the cast with amphetamines, sepsis with a mental breakdown, and intensive care with involuntary commitment. The doctor literally walked into the waiting room, prescribed amphetamines, and scheduled a follow up later.

The doctors don't have a clue what they're doing when they say "chemical imbalance". They're guessing and using the medication shotgun.
Your appeal to reductio ad absurdum here fails because it's not established that SSRIs work by restoring an imbalance. SSRIs are only little more effective than a placebo, suggesting there's something deeper at play with regards to depression. Yes they may be an effective measure in serious cases of depression but they certainly are not a cure and many people do not just turn "normal functioning" after SSRI treatments like you're suggesting. The disease model of depression simply is not true.

The average person is simply not going to be savvy enough - nor have the wherewithal in a life trying to stay above poverty - to steel themselves against all of the advertising and pressures and manipulations that the crypto crowd - the vested interests and ultrabillionaire VCs are bringing to bare.

When suddenly every magazine in the gas station, commercial on tv, or major influential figure you look up to (or are aware of) is talking about this obvious grand new investment for the average man, when people you trust in your social circles are bringing this all to you with continual pressure at all angles as the solution to your honestly miserable day to day, and your 9-6 retail job with an hour commute is filled with coworkers telling you about their success with this golden ticket and billboards after billboards normalizing the stuff - well, it's reasonable that the average person would bow to such systemic and overwhelming and hyperoptimized systemic, social and psychological pressure.

Being concerned about "is nuclear being painted in a bad light" is not the right thing to focus on here, especially in a country that supports nuclear, like France. The real question is what France will do for power.

I would consider this a huge issue, especially in a warming world.

Also more important than being worried about the public image of nuclear, which is quite popular in France, is figuring out if and how France can construct new nuclear in the future. Even with their supportive population and regulatory structure, their Flamanville project is facing the exact same cost and delay issues as the recent projects in the US at VC Summer and Vogtle.

All this undermines the idea that public image or "ecologists" are the ones holding back nuclear power. The reality is that the industry, or technology itself, is not delivering.

France has 56 reactors, of which 29 are currently shutdown.

My understanding is that they are closed for maintenance rather than due to the on-going heatwave.

It has been described as the perfect storm: some reactors have reached the 10yr mark (so extensive maintenance is to be done on these), lockdowns have slowed the progress of regular maintenance (possibly introducing a backlog?), and finally corrosion was found in secondary cooling systems used during emergencies leading to further (12) shutdowns.
Let me fix that headline: Europe's lack of investment in sustainable energy and nuclear is raising electricity prices, compounded by the dependence on fossil fuels from terrorist states like Russia.

Your initial claim is that it is not an invasion of privacy, but your argument is only that it is legal. And is it also not an invasion of privacy in China, where facial recognition cameras log everywhere you go in public? Any protest you attend, or coffee shop where troublemakers congregate that you visit, all of it is logged, and you don't even need to carry your phone with you. The UK is showing every intention of reaching parity with China in this regard.

But that's no different than a random photographer taking your picture, or a grandmother noticing you come and go through a window?

The evidence for antidepressants is not based on the serotonin theory of depression. It's based on blinded placebo studies. The serotonin theory was posited after MAOI antidepressants were discovered. It's been argued that antidepressants aren't significantly better than placebo. There's a good discussion of that here: https://lorienpsych.com/2020/10/25/ssris/#3_How_effective_ar...

There's also a background debate here over whether depression should be seen as biological/chemical or environmental. This comes up in the article toward the end:

> Although viewing depression as a biological disorder may seem like it would reduce stigma, in fact, research has shown the opposite, and also that people who believe their own depression is due to a chemical imbalance are more pessimistic about their chances of recovery.

The thing is, if you're not a dualist, there's no reason depression can't be chemical and environmental. Clearly life circumstances can lead to depression and making changes (diet, exercise, leaving a job, leaving a relationship, undertaking therapy) can be a way out. Most doctors understand this and that doesn't discredit medication as a potential option.
The natural remission rate for depression is about 70%, so plenty of people taking antidepressants think they helped...
I don't know how you square this review with the fact that SSRIs seem to work. This feels a hell of a lot like "we can't find a good explanations for why this work, therefore it doesn't work."

This sounds reasonable, until you think that you are saying something isn't true because you can't explain it, which is also true of a 3 year old when asked how planes fly. Them not being able to explain it doesn't make the plane fall from the sky.

To be fair, the title of the article and the general gist of the theory are not what is being refuted in the article, but the article is the one saying SSRIs probably aren't worth it. It seems likely there is not a good explanation for their effectiveness but sure looks effective.
