> The way I read your comment, the SuperEgo consists out of social norms that only exist because society exist.

Not just like that. It is about ideas of Good and Evil absorbed in a childhood. It is mostly is a social things, but not quite. Though from other hand human is defined though a society, Homo Sapience cannot become a human without growing in a group of other humans. All the essential things, like a language are acquired through education. So in a broad sense yes, SuperEgo is a product of a society.

> But there are things that we know are good for us, that are pleasant to us, but we still don't do them. Are they part of the SuperEgo?

I do not know. Probably professional psychoanalytics are do not know either, and if asked would debate between themselves for days.

Freud said that Id is about primitive drives of a behavior, like food, water, sex. I think that any acquired conditional reflexes seeking instant gratification (like obsessive refreshing of a twitter for new tweets to consume) are also belong to Id. While any "high level" idea of what is good for you belongs to SuperEgo.

When thing is good for us and is pleasant to us, then it technically belongs to both, as to Id, so to SuperEgo. How psychoanalisys handle this I do not know. If it was up to me, I'd say that my knowledge that something is good for me is a part of SuperEgo, while an expectation of a pleasure is a part of Id, so they are different drives working from different parts of psyche. Why I choose not to do it is a tricky part, because SuperEgo and Id agree on this, but it doesn't happen. The author proposes an explanation of Inner Child resisting discipline, and I think that any explanation would need to bring something in addition to "good for me" and "pleasure to do". Something that triggers a conflict in Ego.
I just oriented myself on some other themes I found where comments were using a de-emphasised foreground colour. You could switch to one of the more high contrast versions but I can totally see how it would potentially make sense to use the same luminance level as the code. For the theme, I’m totally open to changing things around based on feedback like this.
In computer science, or more specifically in deep learning, there is a high correlation between resources you can spend / use and progress you can make. This is why all the major tech firms have a leg up, they have internal computing power and data that is impossible for any one university to have. It is also the case that a lot of professors and even students have temporary appointments with tech firms, for exactly this reason.

If you look at other fields which are not as resource intensive, university can and do contribute to the state of the art. Especially in areas like theory, where even though MSR etc do cutting edge research, the bulk of work is done at universities.
No it doesn't.

No, I think it's worth way more than the price.

You can buy several single-purpose extensions for $2 or $3 each and end up paying the same amount or more to get only a fraction of the features of StopTheMadness.
>The problem is I can't be creative if I can't convince my inner child that the activity we're doing is fun so I have to frame whatever work I'm doing in a playful way otherwise my inner child will go ”boooooooriiiiing”

Well, the key to life is that we also need to do things that we find "boring", and that no amount of sugar-coating would make them appear fun to us.

Not just in general as a society (e.g. menial hard jobs, etc) or for maintainance (e.g. brushing our teeth or doing the dishes), but also in our everyday personal life, and for personal development and relationship with others.

Doing only fun things, or only things we can convince ourselves are fun, is a recipe for failure...

Plus, even fun things, we often need to do beyond the fun amount, if we want to get good at them.

(For example, we might enjoy playing piano, and even practiving for a while each day, but we need to study beyond the enjoyable fun material and duration, if we want to became classical or jazz musicians).

But he's not like the overwhelming majority of suburban homeowners; he owns mansions.
I'm really confused, because everyone connected with rail seems to be completely 100% aligned on this and they'll repeatedly explain in very easy-to-digest terms the existing problems, and how HS2 will alleviate many of them. It seems like such a no-brainer.

... and yet so much of the public (and ... [sigh] the news and various politicians) seem to be laser-focussed on travel time, and loudly question whether a quicker north/south line is really worth it. And they'll often talk about the focus should instead be on improving utilisation of the existing without knowing that these main north/south lines are already very near capacity.

If I was a rail guy in the UK I'd probably lose my mind.
Form over functionality.
Rebelliousness is a concept about lining up with societal expectations. Perhaps some of us do our best creative work outside of those expectations. Why should we suppress that?
Reinstalling broken Linux systems has been my go-to technique for 20-odd years. It shouldn't take any time at all to get them back up and running, because all the installation and deployment is automated.

I've never tried Windows but I've heard it's a faff to do this. Good to hear it's catching up, though!
AFAIK there is absolutely no innovation with software defined keyboards, they statically mimic a physical keyboard. I would expect well defined open APIs so that applications tailor the keyboard for optimal contextualized use for that app.
The only thing that came close is Apple's touchbar but even that one is quite static and not very liberating in practice.
Of course the downside of adaptive software keyboards is that you have a slightly different keyboard layout per application, so mostly a feature for experienced and professional users.
In all fairness, it does work without the quotes.
abomenation is a strong word. i'd use the phrase he is apt to use.
"an unfortunate case".
I'm not sure I follow your point. I live about an hour from the "centre" of London.

That doesn't mean I want to travel 2 hours a day just to use London's infrastructure.

London is a big place. The centre of London is big. Where my train comes into London is not necessarily where what I need to do is.

So there could be another further hour of travel each way to get across London.

Travelling to and from the station on the home end is also a problem. Since public transport is so dire outside of London that takes much longer than it should do and is much more inconvenient.

Where friends of mine get annoyed waiting 5 minutes for a bus in London, you could be waiting over an hour in the rest of the country ...and if you miss it you're in schtuck, because it's the only one that day.

How much daily travel should we have to put up?

Just to be clear, I don't want less in London, I want more/better outside of London.
I want to see high-res pictures of that device after 2, 5 and 10 simulated years of use.
Right. And then the obvious continuation: and if you can't afford it, maybe you're trying to hoard space in an area where too many people want to live, and you need to move further out.
We should not lie to ourselves about the real situation just for feelgood purposes. It looks nice, but is empty. We are still missing thousands of species here that can't return until much later.

If we have a oil palm monocultures, "technically" we have a forest. We have an area covered by trees, but this is not the same as having a mature rainforest, that play in a much upper level and a totally different league.

Acropora dominated reefs are the equivalent to really young forests composed mostly with 2m trees. Yes, a poor reef is better than nothing, but we must understand that they sustain a much lower Shannon index than a mature reef and that we should keep protecting it for a long, long time.
How does the 17 inch screen stand up? There are no pictures of it standing from the back. Maybe I overlooked it?
I’m not sure what you mean. I agree that the problem is not the binaries, but I believe the problem to be the operating system. The source code may not have assumed a specific upper size limit on intmax_t, but the binaries were compiled in good faith to a specific machine architecture, which had a specific width on intmax_t, namely the largest integer type which that architecture could support. If then new CPU models come out with larger integer types, but the operating systems still runs that same binary straight up (without any emulation layer), this exposes the old binary to larger integer types, breaking the binary. The binary is not at fault, it’s the operating system which committed the sin of running the binary on what is effectively a different architecture without any considerations on what architecture the binary was actually compiled for.
I love the innovation but I don't see me buying something like this. I'd use it like a standard laptop and I think most people would do the same.

And then you have all the possible screen problems. We've seen it happening with phones and I wouldn't like paying a considerable sum of money for something that will break easily if I look at it the wrong way.

Gives us connectivity, good screen, power and autonomy. Leave the weird designs, they remind me of the mobile phone era before the iPhone.
We have had an unusually cold summer and winter here in Queensland this year, I expect due to the La Niña weather pattern. Unfortunately, once that breaks, we’ll probably be back to the more and more frequent bleaching events again.

I’m surprised the deniers haven’t started trumpeting “global cooling” again like last time we had a couple of unusually cool outlier years…
When I started out, QBasic was instrumental in getting me interested in programming (other tools would not do it), because it was easy, all inclusive, graphics related, immediate, and well documented.
Its nostalgia or maybe there is a use-case for people that didn't like the iTunes like "database" of songs that every player and streaming app is today.

Winamp is just your files in folders on disk, and you can make playlists.

I tried reAMP recently and its quite unusable on a modern screen, because its UI is so small.
I only upvote if I think a comment needs more exposure, but that's about it. I try to avoid upvoting stuff just because I agree with it. I never upvote just because I've responded to something.

I think ideally we should try to use the voting system to promote as many interesting and unique perspectives as possible, while demoting any rudeness or intolerance.
Ah, I think I understand your point.

Your point is that "stuff <10% of people will like" doesn't make up for a mediocre film, and studios are trying to capitalise on that rather than working on better stories.

If so, I definitely agree.
And for all of the cleanliness and convenience you also have to put up with 3/4 of the population blowing their cigarette smoke in your face. Especially indoors in bars, despite it being illegal.
That is a terrifying read. I work with orgs that produce similarly poor quality software, but that software isn't controlling "two ton death machines".

I learned programming quite late, starting in university. But my first programming experience was very early as a child when my dad brought home a 286 laptop (!) and showed me how to write simple programs in QBasic. He showed me how to do conditional branching (IF ELSE), but for loops he told me to read the documentation. I wrote a little text adventure just with IF ELSE, never read the documentation and lost interest. If I would have just followed through ...
Too much / too little, both are problematic I guess. This ends up becoming a war of algorithmic generation vs understanding, and devolves to effectively answering the age old question "is this spam"?

I was going to suggest that perhaps adding info about whether the site had ads, etc. might help the usability. Then I tried marginalia ... :) Perhaps we need to invest in similar detection for other antipatterns (listicles, blogspam etc.) - this is mostly what I was talking about. Less the understanding for indexing, and more the classification for user safety and authenticity of results.

But again, this is very cool.
The HS in HS2 stands for "High Speed", so people expect it to be, you know, higher speed than what we have today.
So in the year 2000 and in the year 2022, for any web page, when that page is crawled the same text would end up in the index? No observable changes were made to the process of computing the text to put into the index from the page in those 22 years?

> we didn't make any change *in terms of retrieval*

Users don't care which part of the system was changed to cause the results to be worse.

It looks like maybe your reply is only about what changes recently shipped and are mentioned in the blog post. A lot of the discussion in this comment section is about changes much older than these changes.

Ask HN: Solution for Distraction?
How to surpass the urge to check my social media or do something else when I am coding/doing a hard task? Sometimes it seems I can't control it and it just opens a page and goes to HN or Twitter or something.

I have tried the block the page but it doesn't make sense since I just can unblock them and it is not very effective
If you had multiple search engines, say four of them like in your example, then the rewards for successfully specializing in either one of them would be a fourth what it is now, meanwhile you would have to put in four times the work to maintain four versions of the site, you would have to conduct four times as much research to maintain your advantage. The economies tip to make specialization less rewarding.

Just as in nature, monoculture rewards specialization, whereas ecological diversity rewards generalization. Not that specialization doesn't exist in diverse ecosystems, it's just not as devastating.
Fold or not, what I want for a laptop is:

A tablet with a matte screen.

That can run Linux.

So I can put it on a stand and a keyboard in front of it.

"Cheap" isn't a great word to use there, because it means something more negative than the reality I'd want. I want affordable housing for people. Good, quality housing, with sufficient space, but something that people of all income levels can afford. It's possible, but the political decisions that could allow it are hampered by the NIMBYs.
Why is this framed like a hypothetical scenario when there's an abundance of countries that are already cashless and have been so for a long time? I haven't even seen a physical bill in many years. No idea how the coins look nowadays.

What's with this compulsive obsession with hygiene? Our own bodies contain about 3 times more microbes than human cells [1]. The air we breath is full of microbes, pollen and spores (not to mention the chemical pollutants nobody seems to care about). Any surface we touch - door handles, pieces of paper, keyboard keys, sofas, etc. - is full of microbes. Just saying...

Why is The Atlantic pointing the finger at the likes of Andreessen? Does he magically (cough cough) have more influence over politicians and regulators than he is supposed to have? Or maybe it's not fashionable for the media to look at who has been in a position of power a long time (e.g., Pelosi) and yet the needle on a known issue doesn't move?

When friends get on such a witch-hunt train, I suggest that they watch the film The Candidate (with Robert Redford). Why? Because - with rare dialogue exceptions - you could remake that film today and you probably wouldn't notice it's 50+ yrs old. 50 yrs is a long time for the needle not moving.

Andreessen might be a participant and a symptom but he's not among The Root Cause. He's not the tone deaf holding the 6 Jan hearings. He's not jetting to Taiwan. Etc. Let's not allow The Atlantic to distract us from The Root Problem.

There are some real steals if you dig deep enough. Case in point the Xiaomi 4A GbE:

* $30 (not missing a zero)
* OpenWRT support
* 128MB RAM
* 3 gigabit ethernet ports
* 802.11ac Wi-Fi

Sure it's not going to compare to a full Raspberry Pi (tiny flash, no USB, no video, no expandability), but for plain routing it's fantastic value.
Every time I unlock my phone I’m reminded that the stupid flashlight button can’t be turned off.

The 3 times this year I’ve needed to use my flashlight are not worth the 20+ times it’s been accidentally running in my pocket because I held the wrong corner while pocketing my phone.

Plus it’s in control centre anyway If you need it fast.

Solarized is fine, so is any theme that emphasizes the red-blue or blue-yellow axis instead of the red-green one. Deuteranomaly is often misunderstood to mean that red and green are close to identical (which they are not necessarily), and everything else remains unaffected. It's much more complicated than that and e.g. different shades of red / green / orange can be hard to differentiate as as well.

What's a little frustrating sometimes is that deuteranomaly affects around 8% of men, but is quite often ignored simply ignored. Using red-blue instead of red-green by default would make a lot of problems disappear.
The next greatest innovation would be a self-cleaning display.

You have the causality reversed; mental illness and drug addiction is caused by the stress and hopelessness of homelessness.

Isn’t the fold on current laptops a weak spot now? I’ve had laptops die to that.

They always keep trying though. Janelia Farms, now this “renewed” Cancer Moonshot program, and some commercial attempts like Calico, Chan Zuckerberg - each with their own goal but similar idea that if only they could recreate bell labs or the Manhattan project or the moon Landings..

They all fail at that goal and become just another research institute no better or worse than the entities they purport to replace.

If you ask me why, it’s because they forget and do the one cardinal mistake - they hire professors from existing academia or industry. By the time you finish your PhD (leave alone the rest of Tenure track), it has been subconsciously indoctrinated in you to only care about YOURSELF. And worse, that the only way to do that is to specialize in a specific topic and then keep convincing everyone that this is the topic that will cure cancer, eradicate Covid, solve the South China Sea crisis and then finally eliminate aging altogether.

In the Manhattan project, the only qualifications required were that you were a physicist and smart one at that. You gave up on your own research and focused on what needed to be done whatever field it may be. In the cancer moonshot program every guy they brought in tried to cure cancer with his own tool. They always want to do their own thing. Guess what nothing has been cured and hundreds of billions have disappeared.

For better or mosty worse Neuralink seems to be the one place bucking the tend. Worse because they seem to be driven by a guy who really doesn’t care about humanity, is of extremely questionable ethics and what they’re trying to do will likely be used for bad things more than good anyway (once it leaves the clinical realm).

If someone gives me $50MM and asked me to cure cancer I’d probably run around the US top institutions and identify truly smart 1-2 year PhD students and recruit them with insane amounts and try to Train them “in the old ways” so to speak.
I think this is what "Northern Powerhouse Rail" was supposed to address, but I don't know if it's going to get as much love as a London project, if it goes ahead at all :(

For any non-UK people who aren't familiar, here's here's a simple map showing pop. density to give you a rough idea what we're dealing with: https://www.researchgate.net/figure/Gridded-UK-population-de...

You can clearly see the areas in question - London being the big red/purple blob in the far south-east, and the cities/conurbations marmarama described are to the north and north-west of that. They're not individually on the scale of London, but they're substantial population centres that would see real benefits from this kind of public transport infrastructure investment.

I grew up in NYC with these dense mixed-income neighborhoods you speak of.

It just means all classes share the same problems equally (emphasis on equally)

The history of my youth in the city is knowing practically a trail of dead friends lost to drugs, abuse, murder and suicide. And I went to private school.

When I was in middle school some kids I knew at the school behind mine made national news for murdering a guy in Central Park. During the OJ Trial.

IMO anyone who raises a kid in an environment like I grew up in is insanely wreckless.
