I have a hard time understanding the target market for this.

If you are so paranoid about your security and anonymity, why would you take promises made by a third party at face value?

Why would you trust anyone or anything with an ounce of your identity?
Certainly this won't be abused
True, a patient's ignorance or belief system can be an issue. There's also two other factors - (1) some doctors often don't update themselves on the medical advances in their field and (2) doctors who treat mental health problems are also the most suspicious about trusting what their patients say (which is somewhat understandable when you consider the kind of mental health issues there are where patients do lie or can be delusional and all that isn't easy to ascertain in one or two sitting). So dealing with new therapists is always a pain as they want to do their own evaluations and insist on medicating you even if you don't need it. More so when you can't find therapists well versed with newer therapies like CT, DBT.
I work in the Alaska fishery and am typing this while sat in one of the largest fish processing facilities in the western hemisphere. I have the spare time because, well, there's no crabs coming in and everything else is mostly out of season. About half of the boats on Discovery belong to the company I work for, the largest in the US. So I'll take the opportunity to share some on-the-ground observations.

Overfishing: It's not this. A billion crabs is north of 5 billion pounds, in other words on the order of 100x the US crabbing fleet's capability. I would hazard to guess there isn't enough crabbing gear on the planet earth to have achieved that catch.

Foreign fleets: If this is the case, the real bad news is that the Rusky's and/or Chinese have developed cloaking device technology.

Trawling: We're talking about the bottom-scrapers. They're new on the scene relative to the crabbers. Alaska allows 4 1/3 million crabs as bycatch (waste), amounting to ~20 million pounds, which would be a decent annual catch. Even though this is thought to interfere specifically with breeding grounds, it isn't enough to have caused this depopulation event. It's more than enough to piss of the crabbers though, since it actually is unfair.

Disease: Is there a precedent in Earth's natural history of a 90% die-off in two years due to disease? We might have to go back to the meteor that killed the dinosaurs. Which brings us to:

Climate change: There was a similar depopulation event in the early 80s. 1980 still holds the annual catch record at 200 million pounds (~40 million animals), a sustained harvest without noticeable impact on the stock. The waters warmed, population (and yield) suddenly tanked on a similar scale, and never recovered to anywhere near those levels. The basic ecological dynamic of a fishery is this: deep, cold, nutrient-rich waters are pushed by a current into a steep continental shelf, forcing them toward the surface where it fertilizes plankton, the foundation of sea life. The volcanic Aleutian archipelago is such a place, another notable one is Peru's fishery. A change in sea temperature can effect this dynamic, in addition to the breeding and general survival of crabs.

However long it takes for the stock to recover (probably a long time, even if the environmental conditions do return to favorable), one outcome is almost a foregone conclusion: independent crabbers will have be forced out, and only the larger companies, with deeper pockets and more diversified across fish species, will survive, leading to another round of conglomeration.
The mainland you mean, not the U.S. as a whole - since part of Alaska was invaded and seized. One of the reasons that's not well-known is that I believe it was kept secret during the war as it was a tad embarrassing.
I live in Georgia and this whole thing has been a cluster. All Georgia Power customers have a rate increase that goes into effect once the plants start producing power for the grid. Westinghouse went bankrupt due to incompetent contractors and under-the-table deals and Georgia Power customers are having to foot the bill.

Not to mention that Georgia has a multi billion dollar government budget surplus. Personally they should use that to keep power rates low. With the additional rate increases being requested by Georgia Power the citizens of Georgia are looking at a 40% rate increase in the next couple of years.

> It seems like the terminal world is slowly getting abandoned in favor of proprietary GUI apps

This sounds like something written from the 1990s.

In fact these days, proprietary GUI apps are being abandoned for web apps or mobile apps.
It's probably the youngish HN demographic, but I'm not sure where this idea comes from that old people don't enjoy life as much as young people do. It's kind of--insulting I guess, like my brain's ability to feel joy has gotten attenuated at some 1/x curve??? Who told you that's what happens?

The one thing you probably can't 100% count on having the ability to do when you get old is work, which is why it's so important to "make hay while the sun shines" as they say--max that salary while you can. Especially in the tech industry where there's already so much ageism. I am not counting on my ability to pass an interview or actual physical do work, beyond like 60 or so, but still need to financially prepare to live to 90. I think some people on HN just assume they'll be capable of working up until their final day, so why save?
Maybe now, but if it's true we, can work towards reducing the C02 emissions of EV's. We've tried for decades to reduce the C02 emissions of ICE vehicles with diminishing returns. It's time to move to something else that have a future like EV's.
As much as I would like to end such an addiction, there aren't even viable replacements for every ICE yet. What do we do about aircraft, freight trucks, and sea vessels?
I wish there were more long-form articles like this, that explored the way this debate unfolds in the literature, and rigorously presents the arguments of each side. The article invites readers to make up their minds on psychiatry (drugs) vs psychoanalysis, but through narrative rather tha logical arguments. Would make for a great movie, but it's hard to derive anything from this.

It's clear that the neurobiological approach focuses on correlates rather than root causes. Brain chemicals are no more the "sources" of emotions, than emotions being the source of neurochemicals. And psychoanalysis tries to weave narratives that explain behavior, but those narratives may or may not produce any insights.

Surely there's smart people who can see the basic flaws of both current approaches, and are trying to build more rigorous models of the mind's functioning?
> We've started migrating ours to separate API Gateways at a "service" level and then mapping paths to different APIs using the Custom Domain API Mappings.

Yeah, that was suggested to us too, but it felt like a dirty hack to me. What is the point of having an API gateway if you can’t have the single one (our microservices hook themselves up to that single gateway).

Our solution involves a custom CDK resource that keeps re-creating API gateways until it gets a root resource ID starting in the lower range of the alphabet, ensuring it’ll always be found by CloudFormation.
You seem to be mixing up some units, but it doesn't change the point. Assuming your numbers are up to date (which I'm sceptical of at 4h storage):

Firstly nuclear also requires storage otherwise you're paying $400-600/MWh on account of the idle capital. Secondly you don't need to lead with storage, you can build out up to 50% or so renewable without.

Thirdly if the costs of battery were to halve or quarter, such as by the conversion of lithium ion to sodium ion production which is already happening, then the reasoning evaporates entirely.
You could use Firecracker VMs instead right?
And it's a good one. Opiates have life-changing efficacy, it's the implementation that failed. Doctors weren't clever, if even actively malicious, about duration and tapering.

They're doing the same thing today with benzos, it's just less marked on society.

There's room in between full removal and liberal prescribing.
$10k seems really low. Like 1980s low. That's not even earnest money on a $1M house typical of California. That's a down payment on a car slightly nicer than a Civic today. Saw a Civic listed for $30k at the dealer last week.

> A brain could encode "pleasure", and respond appropriately to that and other complex stimuli without there being anyone actually feeling that pleasure.

It could, but would that be a more efficient way to interact with the world? We see more complex brains coinciding with a greater ability to create abstractions about the world and leading to a greater flexibility when it comes to problem solving. Hard coding things occurs in simpler life forms with very limited to no ability to solve problems.

People often say "well, nature could create a p-zombie" - could it? It's far from clear that someone could hard code the types of interactions we engage in. Look at the early AI efforts and the failure to simply hard code rules there. Natural selection tends to push creatures in the direction of doing things efficiently, and it seems that our brains are no different. Despite it "feeling wrong" to some people.
It's upsetting to see how children's and young people's education gets dumbed down. I went to a toy shop earlier this week and the kits for scientific experiments (chemistry, electronics) have been dumbed down compared to the 1980s. Back then, you had a huge box with chemicals and tools and a proper 100+ page handbook full of experimental instructions (chemistry) or resistors, transistors
capacitors etc, and a handbook full of design schemas that you may want to construct e.g. a little radios (electronics). Now you can do "20 safe experiments" like making a LED flash.

In computing, students want to do their coursework on their iPad in a notebook environment, relying mostly on step-by-step instructions given as PDF file or from an online tutorial, based on copy & paste, without understanding what they paste there instead of compiling libraries or write a makefiles from scratch.

Starting next summer, I will include a 2-3 hour UNIX command line (and also a 2-3 hour LaTeX) intro into all courses I teach where that can be justified. (The UNIX Power Tools [1] book is a useful resource for teaching, I found in the past.)

I don't have a suitable answer to your question but I wanted to mention that I also wonder how come there isn't more discussion about implementing/improving tidal or wave power. There are numerous innovations that might be possible in the horizon, including possibly using fusion, but other alternate approaches such as decentralization and energy storage are also interesting yet seldom discussed.
I mean, there are certainly ways to work around the silly limitations. I just feel like I shouldn’t have to.
Yeah, dekhn you're correct. There are mechanisms of inheritance that aren't genetics (like heritable epigenetics, maternal effects, etc.), but when we're talking about "heritable" the vast majority is genes.
If you're talking about it from an animal rights angle, even animals raised on small idyllic farms have their throats slit at an early age. Would we want our throats slit?

Would we want to be funneled down a chute with our family members, watching them disappear behind a metal sheet and then get shot in the head one by one in front of us, until our turn comes?

If you're talking about it from an environmental angle, moving from CAFOs to grass-feeding small farms for e.g. cattle would necessitate more land, the animals would grow more slowly, they would produce more methane due to digestion of grass vs feed, we would subsequently have to raise larger herds of animals to supply the same amount of meat, and all of this would actually result in a worse impact on the environment.

Factory farming is actually largely the result of the industry optimizing animal rearing to produce the most meat for the least amount of inputs.
Maybe, but more power generation is a better investment. $1 spent on nuclear generates $10 in energy. $1 spent on transmission lines is just $1 gone.
Indeed, why not. I couldn't possibly prove you wrong or right. That's why the hard problem does not exist and there is no line.
Understanding the different flavors of Clang C and C++ compilers in Windows
Agreed, but the bad press spread the word which made people who hand been buying intel servers forever realize that there's a better choice out there.
Right. The big panzers were terrible to encounter if they ever managed to get to the front line, but they rarely did, and there they broke down quickly and were often abandoned. They were also more vulnerable than they looked. On the Russian front the tankers learned to pop the turrets off by radio-controlling their fire and hitting the turret at roughly the same time with 3 or four smaller tanks or guns. The sheer vibration would pop the turret off since the Germans had never designed for that much vibration. The Russians never did tell the Americans or Brits about this technique, however; interestingly.
> Key policy writers clearly don't understand the difference between energy and power.

Ridiculous. Of course they do.

> Shuts down nuclear power.

You don't know what you are talking about. It was decided decades ago in a referendum that Sweden should move away from nuclear power. A majority of the parties in the parliament has supported this for decades.

Despite that. The government hasn't actively closed down nuclear power. Shut downs have been decided based on the economics of running the plants.

And don't start about the "effektskatten" (a tax on nuclear energy in Sweden), it's older than the green party.

You want nuclear power. They support renewables. That's why you call them insane.

Here is the key. My bank takes 2.5% commission on any transaction not-in-card-currency (in addition to about 0.75-1% commission of MasterCard/Visa system itself) and something like 0.5% for cash withdrawal in any ATM of any other bank, no matter in which country or currency.

And, oh, wait, if it is true credit card (non debit one) I don't have grace period for cash-like transactions and need to pay card interest from first day (for "buy" transactions I need to pay interest only if I don't resupply credit card after month end + 20 days).

And it is typical conditions in my country. Some banks has conditions slightly better, but they have other problems.

When typical spread for cash exchange in South-East Asia is about 3% (+1.5% / -1.5%) to FOREX, which is much better.

Typically: you could exchange $1 to 24000 VND now (oh my, I remember when it was 16000), but if I withdraw VND from my debit card (which is in USD, not my native currency) it will be something like 22000 VND per USD.

Other example: I'm in Armenia now, and I exchange USD to AMD on the street as 1:406 (406 DAM for 1 USD) without any commission (xe.com shows 1:401 right now). When I BUY something (not withdraw money!) with my USD card it is about 395-390 AMD per USD.

Yes OK, but there is nothing illegal there is there? Just wondering what legal tools there are for the police/FBI to interfere. Maybe if they can prove collusion they can confiscate it?

GPU power based game for desktops
PC vs console has never been a value debate; if one wishes to merely play games at acceptable-for-most quality, console beats the pants off PC all day every day. PC gaming was historically and still is in some cases about living on the edge of available consumer tech; a Vive Pro 2 is 2448 × 2448 @ 120hz /per eye/, PSVR is 960 x 1,080 90-120hz, but for getting into VR it's like a quarter (or less) of the cost of a top-tier VR headset and the PC that can run it. Is that PC experience 4x more valuable than the PSVR experience? Probably not for the vast majority of people, but they still sell enough Ferraris to make it a viable business when a Toyota Camry will do the same job of transportation.

I'm going off the 2021 numbers, 667 pounds/capita/annum. I'll confess I was too lazy to pull up the calculator app and get ~18% increase. This wasn't due to a conscious consumer boycott, people just decided that drinking milk is kinda gross (see: McPoyle)

A better example to illustrate your point might be the grape boycotts of the 1960s, when Cesar Chavez/Dolores de la Huerta/UFW & company successfully appealed to the American working man to boycott (specifically California) grapes until the growers agreed to basic labor rights.

In any case, my point is that industry/the powers that be aren't actually to blame, as evidenced by their readiness to cancel the season. As this is most likely caused by climate change, we should be boycotting the fossil fuel industry, if only we could
Swedish nuclear reactors are all located at the North Sea or Baltic sea that's cold enough all year round, we don't have that issue.

This is mostly an issue for ("partially") landlocked countries. Those french reactors use rivers for cooling. Also the summer period neatly coincides with the yearly maintenance period, so...
That strategy works well in a lot of places, but it's not what's going on here. This is just plain old incompetence and mismanagement. It's a mess, rather than a strategy.

For Intel, it just results in most buyers buying the cheapest possible system since there is no way to tell what's what. Intel would make a lot more selling $400 CPUs than $50 CPUs, but to do that, people would need to see the value.

Ha, this is what I've done, it's called "moving there". Lived in many countries around the world - you want to learn what it's like to be local, you gotta live there, and for a long while. Even then you're still an outsider. The truth is, we're all always outsiders in the lives of people we don't know, no matter where we are or live.
Regarding plants, I replied elsewhere in this thread as to why I think they aren't conscious, but even if each kernel of corn were as fully conscious as a human being, it would still be more ethical to eat them directly than to feed that corn to a cow and then eat it. The reason for this is because for every 10 calories of plant matter we feed to a cow, we get ~1 calorie of meat out of it. So by eating the crops directly we are killing 90% fewer plants, without even taking into account all the plant, animal, and human life being destroyed in clearing rainforests for cattle. Without even accounting for all the plant, animal, and human life that is being and will be destroyed by the climate change to which the rearing of these cattle is a major contributor.

Otherwise I appreciate that you can see that it's all largely arbitrary, self-serving, and this way of thinking is what has lead to every other atrocity in our history. I think we are capable of being better.
