Sure. I'm not saying mothers should keep their children under a glass bell until adulthood. When (slightly older) children start abusing their crying for attention, they should absolutely not be (completely) indulged.

But we're talking about infants here. I seriously doubt that infants are crying because they want to be entertained (as implied by "crying gets me attention") - I think that they cry because they are f-cking scared. Yes, they want attention - the same way that a person stuck in a dark alleyway with a gang of thugs wants the attention of a police officer.

Or am I missing something here?

I assume it's different in every country. Governments and industry know about the problem the grandparent post talks about, and yeah, there's a history of dealing with it in traditional media.

Youtube is just another case of "uberization" where a big entity thinks it can skirt regulation just because they're "high-tech" and "disruptive".

>after years of the merge being “months” away

It's only been months aways for a few months though. I have endured years of gaslighting comments like this _specifically_ from this asymmetrically moderated community, despite knowing for example in 2017 that PoS was years away. The "maybe this year" started in Jan 2020. COVID happened. They didn't start saying "within a year" again until end of 2021.

Meanwhile the _beacon_ chain launched in 2020, which is what's taking over for the PoW chain in ... 1 hour.

Maybe you're acting in good faith and you misheard that the beacon chain was launching 2 years ago and thought that was this. But how likely is that really?

First of all prevent any bubble to form. Never sign in into to any service that can also work reasonably without signing in (Google, YouTube, etc.) Use Adblock in the browser, Blockada on phone and tablets, do not use FB and talk to friends IRL or on WhatsApp/Telegram. This basically makes sure that the only ads I'm seeing are on TV and billboards on the streets. Visit the HN front page to get some type of news and general news on 68k.news (a text only frontend to Google News, much faster and hopefully hidden from Google's algorithms.)

That's a shame. I felt the same way when I started reading your post, but I did finish it. That's how I know you'd benefit from reading a little further - they go on to explain what you're missing.
> Having a 6 year old refuse to sleep without a parent in bed because of "attachment parenting" tends to make one wonder if there's not some merit to having gone through some pain in the early stages.

How often does that happen in reality? Are there any studies? What is your personal experience? Honest question, as I really don't know.

> Thankfully, there's someone selling every possible take on parenting advice to meet every intuition seeking affirmation.

There's no need for such a dismissing attitude. I clearly stated I am not an authority on the subject and I'm welcoming all and any information in the replies. I'm just discussing here, and without actual knowledge, intuition is my starting point.
I feel a bit left out by the authors only talking about 'maternal holding'.
False dichotomy.

What nobody pays attention to is that the entire thing is a cartel and only incentivizes restricting freedom over time and automating turmoil.

It’s a complete disgrace to what cyberspace represents. It’s an opportunistic, exploitative, incompatible, deprecated, deficient paradigm stuck in a physically-constrained view of the future perpetually hindering progress due to preventing the mind in being able to contemplate non-physical things as infinite.

Pathetic, sad, crappy, leaky.

All driven by greed and ignorance.

People are being played to act as pawns for the same “elite controllers” that they complain about; being led to perpetuate playing the same game. The only thing worse than actual scarcity is completely artificial scarcity and erecting simulacra around that notion as if it were real. Way to go building an actual matrix of ignorance and slavery.
Ethereum post-merge looks a hell of a lot like a security. We'll see what regulators do, but it's concerning that the Ethereum Foundation has been so quiet about regulatory hazard.

Also alarming is the question marks as to when you'll be able to withdraw staked Ethereum, given the security risks from attacks intended to cause slashing and the dependence on total stake for what the staking rewards are.
The exact wording in the guidelines that I’m adhering to is:

> Have curious conversation

There is no guideline directing me to make my comments relevant to the majority of HN readers. This is probably the most narrowly-focused HN comment I’ve ever made in a decade, though!

It’s neither offtopic nor generic, as it’s focused on the exact post topic at hand, and it says something odd but useful that no one else is saying. That’s the essence of what every HN comment should be.
The iPhone is using a quad-bayer filter. Most of the time, it is behaving as a 12MP camera with error correcting photodiodes.

Compared to a normal 12MP camera, the 48MP one will collect slightly less light due to there being more gaps, but the bet is that the increased noise from that is less than the noise reduction from the pixel-binning.

Every photodiode has three others around it with the same colour. If they’re all similar, the sensor will average them, and if one of them is way off, it’ll throw that one away and average the rest.

This is better than doing noise reduction on either a 12MP, or a standard 48MP sensor because the space between comparable diodes is reduced, making it less likely to falsely treat small things like stars as noise.

As a bonus, if the user zooms in on a really sunny day, the 48MP might actually be worth using directly.
I think the point of the twitter rant was addressing a sentiment of "Oh, it's IO bound, guess I can't do anything about it." When there is usually something that can be done about it.

What makes this one of the biggest upgrades in the history of software?

How many Ethereum nodes are there compared to, say, iOS or Android or Windows deployments? What’s their hardware diversity? What’s the complexity of Ethereum compared to the aforementioned operating systems?
Exactly. This is a triumph and the entire open source community should be celebrating

Same, also a skeptic. Glad to see the project has met a minimum bar of environmental acceptability and GPUs are available again. I’ve seen this promised for so many years, so I’m not sure any congrats is really in order… Anyways I have no idea how the economics of PoS can work but hopefully people don’t lose all their money. The only complaint I have about this is I suspect the shills will be out in full force, trying to get my cash into their market cap.
Yes. The environmental argument of Ethereum 'burning up the planet' is now about to be addressed and that will silence the endless criticism made by the extreme crypto skeptics about Ethereum incinerating the planet.

They will now just congratulate the re-centralization of Ethereum running on Proof-of-Stake.

The crypto-skeptics will never be silent, but I can assure you that crypto is still here to stay, with some crypto projects surviving and some of them will not survive.

That was already happening before COVID.

I'm not surprised that people are more depressed and anxious after 2 years of no fun, no social interaction and being locked up in their homes.

Calling it "long COVID" is just another piece of disinformation trying to make COVID look bigger than what it is.
That's a personally philosophical stance rather than an objective truth. Like anarchism vs communism vs capitalism.

Yes, my comment is my own personal experience, and my conclusion based on that experience. What sounded dismissive to you was a slightly cynical take on the parenting advice industry, and contains my advice to stick to your own intuition.
Not clear whether evolution would select for crying in the possible presence of predators (so fighting adults can be woken) or for silence (to avoid attracting attention as prey).

The difference is likely the ability for the community to flag and moderate a comment rather than an entire wiki and repository.

That said, the wiki workflow, permissions, and limitations in formatting may push people who are after a more durable store of information to create a GitHub pages site which is then managed with the same workflow (forks, pull requests, and reviews) as code, along with the ability for search engines to index the GitHub pages site.

Boeing's lies and conspiracies around the 737 MAX directly led to the deaths of hundreds. Their ultimate penalty was a settlement involving a fine equal to about 2 days of revenue, and compensation to the families of those they killed equaling to about 12 more days of revenue. [1] The release did not specify, but settlements of this sort generally require the victims to waive their right to further civil or other legal measures, so that's the end.

The people ultimately responsible for these things not only don't go to jail, they tend to make substantial profit from it after all is said and done. In a a matter of weeks everybody had forgotten (except I'm sure those related to the victims), a slap on the wrist was given, and we're straight back to giving Boeing billions of dollars in taxpayer funds to do the only thing they're good at: killing people.

On the off chance somebody doesn't understand the reference - Boeing is the 2nd largest defense contractor in the US, scoring upwards of $22 billion in contracts las year, after that settlement.

People aren't trying to say loss of smell is just anxiety. They are try to say that anxiety can just be anxiety (The thought of covid itself can cause anxiety), so some of the reported symptoms are dubious. The one that can be tested more objectively have much less room for dispute (processing speed, attention, executive function, and memory).

Hope your smell returns sooner rather than later. My mom has been without hers for 9 months now, which seems to be in the rather unlucky category.

Correlation may not equal causation, but correlation does define syndromes. In medicine, a "syndrome" is any collection of findings that tend to occur together. A syndromic label says nothing about how or why the findings occur together, only that they do.

As syndromes become better understood, they can morph into a disease. For example, swollen lymph nodes in gay men was a syndrome in 1981, but as knowledge evolved, we came to know it as AIDS and then HIV.

So "long covid" is definitely a syndrome. Hopefully medical science will someday learn enough to know whether it is a disease or not.

> we're finally about to break away from the shackles of PoW and the crypto skeptics are silent.

One very popular cryptocurrency is making the switch. That still leaves Bitcoin, with double the trading volume, and most of the other popular cryptocurrencies.

More importantly it doesn't change the fundamental problem with crypto: it's deliberately difficult to regulate, which means that it's still a scammer's paradise.

And Ethereum's price can still fluctuate wildly on any given day, making it unsuitable for most real-world transactions.
The right response is to ALWAYS react to crying by calming the child, and if the crying was not warranted or necessary, explain that to the child AFTER you have calmed it down.

Children are smart enough to understand sentences like "This is really not something to get upset about", AFTER they have calmed down, and explained in a loving matter.
I see. I suppose just experiencing that parent is "out there" and will come periodically to check on them might make the infants feel calmer. It definitely seems better than just leaving the child to cry the whole night.

> Having a 6 year old refuse to sleep without a parent in bed because of "attachment parenting" tends to make one wonder if there's not some merit to having gone through some pain in the early stages.

The work here is not to let the child cry in it's early days, but to put it in it's bed, come when it cries, calm it down, go back to bed, come again when it cries etc. Repeat until child sleeps.
You always need to be pessimistic about operating conditions, because there is no way you’d be able to imagine everything that will happen. If you want to be sure that your structure copes with thermal contraction at -30°C, it makes sense to test at lower temperatures because even if it never gets that cold, other effects might have a detrimental effect that compounds the low temperatures (probably not for thermal expansion, but this is very important for fragile-ductile transitions). This becomes even more important in submarines, where the added cost is very small compared to the cost of losing a boat.

That’s just good engineering, and someone doing tests who does not understand that is clearly in the wrong industry.
