Or mutilate genitals! Carrying this moral relativism to its logical conclusion, some people even think it's fine to lock their children up in the basement and father generations of incestuous offspring with them. Who are we to judge?

I hope this reductio ad absurdem is a reminder that one shouldn't be too shy of imposing one's moral sensibilities on others - that is what they are for. My moral standard is that you shouldn't inflict unnecessary pain and suffering on people, bleeding heart liberal that I am. As such I am happy to condemn gay conversion therapy (along with genital mutilation and incestuous rape) as Bad (and forbidding eating beef as No Big Deal).

This really isn't a live-and-let-live situation, it's a child abuse situation.
That's one endpoint. Another is Detroit.
I wonder if its a learned behavior versus something instinctual.
It must have been a really troublesome itch to take that risk!
supermarket has soda in their carts we naturally assume - without even thinking - it's ok for us too.

But everyone is aware of the obesity problem or that soda is bad, no? It's in the media a lot. Popular reality TV shows not uncommonly feature weight loss challenges. I think it's more of an addiction and tastiness problem than a groupthink or cultural problem. Modern food is not satiating and digests too easily. Those huge Starbucks Frappes are not much different from protein shakes bodybuilders drink to add weight but tastier.
If you ever want someone else to work with you on that, I atleast would be very interested
Well said, thank you. I like the mix of traits you mentioned, that's how I see it as well.
Hm. At first I was pretty reluctant about settings "following" users, but a good Vim feature might be built-in syncing to some web service (DAV, S3, git, etc.). Run some function when you start (like fetchsettings) that will query for endpoint, username, password, and boom.

Something like that would be a bit better than what I'm doing now, which is just keeping a dotfiles repo that lives on github. Since password authentication is no longer allowed, and I need certain config stuff in there to stay relatively private, I have to do the public key dance to get started. The one benefit there is allowing diverging changes on different machines, and good control of what you push back to the store.
A gas flame (ie. The blue ones when air is premixed) don't give off a lot of radiant heat, so anything below them ought to be okay.
TLDR:

Hot compost first until it reaches 150 deg F, with lots of carbon to make sure the C/N ratio is good.
> The US is not like that, people seem to trust other people they have never seen before because they trust things like justice or the US army or google or apple.

I'm not sure what you mean by "trust", beyond small interactions like say...taking a photo with a phone for them or helping them with the door. I can say, confidently, the vast majority of American's do not trust strangers. FUD permeates every news outlet and as economics get more desperate (most live in economic long tail) opportunists are rightly feared and seen everywhere. Litigation is unusually high in the US. US society has even begun to socially monetize the predictable nature of humanity with baited porch pirate prizes and hazard-trapped bike theft, etc.
As I noted, the inverse is not true--some collectivist societies are also declining. But the reasons are different. Some Asian societies really socialized an anti-natal mindset in the mid-20th century as a means of population control. China's one-child policy was the most brutal manifestation of that mentality. In the short run this was helpful to development. But unless they can break out of that cultural trap, in the long run it will destroy those societies.
Yeah. Used to do this in my years of traveling in a fifth-wheel. Works great.
In a single rotation of the Earth sphere, each Time corner point rotates through the other 3-corner Time points, thus creating 16 corners, 96 hours and 4-simultaneous 24-hour Days within a single rotation of Earth – equated to a Higher Order of Life Time Cube.

That’s a common viewpoint of current times v older times on many topics. But it’s not like the 70s people were consciously building a narrative of free love, that’s just how the culture was at the time. Largely the narrative was not assessed and applied until after the fact. We have just as much of a narrative know, we just lack the ability to look at it independently and define it.

The $30 Million Lottery Scam
Even if you are right, which I think you are, the part that I think we are baffled by is how everyone’s happiness could be on such an unsteady plank of risk-aversion and boredom-aversion. Happiness can’t be this tethered to that, right?

We’re all tip toeing around something. The statistics are suggesting that we have no friends, no relationships, no jobs, no kids, no marriage, and so on, which kind of defines a meaningless life.

If in the back of your mind you sort of know that, then the other statistics kick in, uptick in depression, anxiety, and loneliness.

Is the solution to fix the risk aspect, the boredom aspect, or should we stop telling people their life sucks which they indulge in via their self pity, or, is there at least one society on earth right now that’s not like this that we can look to?

Some part of me is starting to believe the answer is far simpler:

Everyone, snap the fuck out of it. Your life sucks, but it also doesn’t. We’re all going to be fine.
So far none of my doctors have proposed such treatment. It’s generally short-acting; probably not a good move for a therapeutic medication.
That sounds like a horrible experience, and I hope you friend is being treated better now.

To be charitable and more specific, If you are stable enough there's nothing technically stopping you from not taking prescribed medication and self medicating - as long as you remain stable enough to not warrant involuntary treatment. The obvious risk is if your prescribed medication (or a combination of prescribed and self prescribed medication) is making an impact, you could get worse.

From this comment it sounds like there's a lot you're leaving out of this story, but I'd like like be caucious of making generalising statements from specific personally related scenarios.
I am half thinking of getting back into Vim (or trying again), because:

* The how-to-use and keybindings, while weird, are going to stick around for another 40 years and probably outlive me!

* Support for languages as good as VSCode

* It is fast

* It can load, search and navigate big files (e.g. 1Gb) quite easily, which most non-text editors seem to struggle with (Notepad++, VSCode, etc.)

This is also the reasons I am learning to use tmux, even when using Windows. Just feel it is a good investment, it is nice to use and scriptable.

What puts me off is getting the muscle memory to feel productive!
I think when we have people going to basketball games, we can tour science facilities. It’s absurd anyone would be so terrified of covid at this point.
It is not semantics. The House of Lords is not elected - there is no voting process, which is a necessary prerequisite for an “election”. It is not “elected by a very small group of people” - it is explicitly appointed, with terrible appointees frequently being rewarded for personally closeness to the prime minister. Several of the positions are literally hereditary.
very fun stuff...just wanted to share this i found

Recently read “Working in Public” where the author talks about how GitHub is to open source as the new feed was to Facebook/social networks
This would be unfair if they didn't springboard into:

> The current social bandwagon can be summarized as: “Work is bad. Hard work is toxic. Perseverance is not healthy”. HN is just reflecting r/antiwork ethics. Complete and utter social non-sense. People have just stopped thinking for themselves.

This is generally not even-keeled behavior.

"Everything in moderation" dates back to 6 BC. This was clearly an reinterpretation of that basic idea. No reason to hop into a tirade into the death of hard work or something.
That's why they risk rubbing themselves on a mincing machine.

I subscribe to New Scientist (actually Dad is currently) and have done so for roughly 35 years. This is not the finest science ever reported.

There will actually be loads of really great science and stuff from these studies but sadly "tuna shags shark" or some other rubbish sells ads n that.

I'm starting to get a bit disillusioned now and might have to pen an "angry of Andover" piece to NS. I'll threaten to cease my subscription (that my dad pays for) and look like a right old prat.

On the other hand, I might simply ask for some decent science. This isn't the best. It sounds novel to start with but rapidly looks like tosh.
I think that orthogonal is a more visual word than unrelated. It invokes the image of axes pointing into different directions. I suspect many programmers just like this aspect of the word, while unrelated is somewhat bland, and also usually wrong.
Did Dyson develop a better design? Not in my opinion. There hoovers suck (not in good way). Bagless designs is also most certainly not a new thing...
It really depends on how much performance you want. And don’t forget that 10% of a disk is a lot more space than it used to be.
Oh hi, creator here! "Make good demo video" is near the top of my list. I was gonna do it before posting TigYog to HN, but apparently someone wanted to post it before me!

TigYog is currently just me living on a shoestring! You can use code "HN" to get either of the featured courses half-price - it would help support me building this thing. Or you could support me by writing a course of your own - and I'm always happy to help you with that :)

Now we need a Facebook for sharing photos, videos, events and posts with our friends and adjacent social circles.
It’s worth remembering that the “traditional life” is more or less what’s left after every previous society experimented until it fell. We are experimenting now too, and will probably fall. Some of the experiments will work but also a mean reversion will likely occur.

Such is progress when you zoom out to the century scale.
Half the things you listed would destroy the fragile friendship. Think of ways of preserving it, however weak the bond.

Following the herd absolutely can be the right answer. Especially if the question is how to reduce friction for contributors.

Also a lower GI lunch. To me, a lunch comprised of mostly protein and fat pretty much nullifies the slump.

> Like treating Latin as literary language

That comparison is a stretch, as Latin and English are both written alphabetically, while classic and the various modern chinese dialects/languages are written logographically.

It's a delightfully complex topic! The headline is a bit misleading, as wikipedia has an entire article on written Hokkien - as you note, it isn't standardized. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Written_Hokkien
At the very least, please do a write-up for us on how you're achieving 5-10k announcements a second.
The AI community would be taken more seriously if they didn't over-exaggerate or even straight up lie about their achievements like it is done in that article title.

Hokkien, specifically the version mentioned in the article (Taiwanese Southern Min) has two main writing systems: Chinese characters and Latin letters based romanization. Heck, that's actually more than most languages in the world! The Tâi-lô[1] system, a slight modification of Pe̍h-ōe-jī was recently standardized by the government. On the other hand, Chinese characters can be used to write Taiwanese, not just Classical Chinese or Standard Chinese (Mandarin), save for a few words that are often written using Latin or bopomofo letters. It's true that a large number of speakers have not been taught either of those writing systems, but it does not mean they don't exist. I've already met someone which taught me few words in Hokkien (the infamous chia̍h-pá--bōe 食飽未) and write it in Chinese characters for me.

I'm working with various Sinitic languages, and Taiwanese is far from being the worst when it comes to available resources in written form (for my use cases dictionnaries).

The friction there and the lack of discoverability is enough of an annoyance to me that I don't bother trying to get any of my modifications merged. I feel like plenty of other people feel the same and I'm just hoping Neovim eventually reaches feature parity because the community feels so much more inviting.
I'm sorry your friend went through all of that. I've had friends and immediate family in similar situations. It's a genuinely impossible situation to navigate.

Sometimes these situations turn out tragically because the patient was involuntarily given drugs, sometimes they turn out tragically because the patient wasn't.

I'm surprised they went with a time release injection -- from the sounds of it, when you say "time release" you mean on the order of 30-90 days, not "12 hours". I'd have expected them to just work on stabilization and then moving to an outpatient program. I'm very surprised they'd have used it without any history of it being effective.

In a more recent tale with a family member undergoing an involuntary stay, I'd have wished they'd used a longer term haloperidol injection.

There's not a one size fits all solution, and it's hard to balance legislation around personal freedoms vs recognizing when the patient is a harm to themselves/others, or even capable of making informed rationale decisions.

> My observation is that agony-inducing drugs are not actually helpful for substance abuse.

Haloperidol isn't for substance abuse, so I wouldn't expect it to perform well at it.

OS UI projects are actually good for this. Back in the day, when Classic Mac OS was customizable thanks to its Theme Manager, I went through a few Kaleidoscope schemes for the same reason. Very therapeutical.

Those ‘small’ interactions maybe benign for you but where I grew up there was non 0% chance they’d take the phone and run away if I asked them to take photo. I don’t think you truly appreciate how much trust your country has.
I don't know that it follows that it's a deliberate shift towards individualism, or if society is effectively pidgeonholing people into these behaviors.

Why do you think you need to involve an LSP for that?. ESLint, as most linters, can take their input from stdin. That is exactly how the eslint-flymake[0] works. Lint on buffer contents, not file on disk. No JSON RPC involved.

I find your conclusions from this specific scenario extremely dangerous and would warn others against generalising too far. I have reason to be in no doubt at the issues with mental health diagnosis, but speculating and generalisation is not useful.

To cite this, and the medical consensus of professionals and other studies:

> Meaning: Although ECT may be more efficacious than ketamine in the acute phase, _treatment options should be individualized and patient-centered, considering different adverse effect profiles and patient preferences._

(emphasis mine)
It's hard to moralize in someone else's shoes, but I tend to think that consistency would mean taking a hard line on both. A fetus past the first trimester seems like it may well be about as sentient as most non-human animals, and definitely by the end of the second trimester.

And I'm not persuaded by that old "violinist" argument. In fact I find it morally repulsive. If you cause another sentient being to come into existence, even unintentionally, you can't just deny responsibility and feel free to terminate their life, as if a random person were strapped to you against your will. It's not a remotely comparable situation.

Personally I am OK with abortion and animal experimentation, but I think they stand and fall together, based on how far you extend out your circle of concern to fellow sentient beings.

China quietly abandons goal of overtaking U.S. economy
The compound is a key product in the methionine cycle[1], which is responsible for synthesizing neurotransmitters like serotonin. Poor methylation in this cycle can reduce synthesis of rate-limiting compounds in the cycle, thus limiting production of neurotransmitters, perhaps inducing symptoms of mental illness.

Another product in this cycle is SAMe (S−adenosyl methionine), which has been marketed for decades as supplement for improving depression.

US strong enough to avoid recession, says Biden economic adviser
I understand the logic, they are frustrated because we are sleepwalking into a catastrophe, and this is the best they can personally do to protest it in a civilized manner. It's not especially productive, but at least they are not just sitting on their asses like the rest of us do. These people are young, so they will be around to be raped to pieces in the thunderdome, it puts things in a different perspective for them.

E.g. like a Twitter poll? If so - TigYog almost has this feature; it's just that it's only visible to the course creator as analytics. I could make the answer stats visible to readers too ...

> We are teaching youngsters to never persevere and push themselves to the limit, ensuring they’ll never realize their full potential and spiraling downwards in a low quality life of lethargy and resentment towards those who succeed.

I think you vastly misunderstand the entire point of antiwork. Its not saying go sit on a couch all day. Its to recognize you have a life outside of work and its okay if work isn't your driving factor in life.

You can learn to persevere and push yourself many many ways. Work is not the only way. Not excelling at your job does not mean you are lethargic and resentful.

Success is measured many different ways, by many different people. You seem to measure it by how hard you work, that's great. Doesn't mean everyone has too.
This is amazing work from Meta and Peng-Jen Chen.

You don't get to the addiction and tastiness without social acceptance first.

Think about it...there is more pain, suffering and death from obesity (and conditions triggered by it) than say cocaine. Why? Because sugar is socially ok and cocaine is not. Give sugar the same stigma and the appeal is greatly reduced. We are social animals. We want to be accepted. We are wired to conform to the norms around us.

The bottom line: We've normalized the abnormal, and have made saying so socially unacceptable.
I don't have to worry [too much] about this as a manager since it's part of our company culture. We pay everyone (in the same geography) the same for the same level. The level is primarily determined by a peer review process. I just have to make sure the process is actually working and deal with some weird situations that it doesn't account for properly. It's not perfect (nothing is) but it mostly works.
