> or the classic "it does not exist, you're just a slacker, pharma is just trying to sell you some drugs"

I don't think it doesn't exist, I think it's not a useful label. Partly due to the way it's treated as a long term issue that should be addressed with drug use, and partly because it can often be unhelpful to the individual's own psychological state, some people flip into an "i'm broken" mode and stay hidden behind it rather than make progress.

There is however good reason to believe in over diagnosis. ADHD is considered a neurological disorder due to physiological differences in the brain. However it's diagnosed through observation of a combination of individually non-unique behavioural symptoms... which is why when you are suspected of ADHD, you are sent to a psychiatrist.

Regardless of whether the cause of such behaviour is physiological or purely environmental, in both cases environmental factors can have a huge impact on how it affects you, this is pretty obvious for anyone who has been in the presence of someone severely autistic. Drugs are not the answer to everything, and not usually a healthy long term solution.
You can recognize that artstyle anywhere.

In case anybody is interested in the art displayed on the right side; It's by Josan Gonzalez, who does amazing dystopic illustrations. The pic in question turns out to be the cover for a Brazilian edition of the book, and I'm guessing it's otherwise unrelated to the series, which is a pitty because Jason's art is amazing.

Here's a slightly animated showreel of his artbook "The Future is Now":

> Btw I’m not even an Elon fan. I just got whiplash from the media turning on him so fast so I started checking things out for myself.

It was just as predictable to see who was going to be crowned the new villain of the month after Trump and it became Musk after he bought Twitter. As soon as he did that, then came the media working overtime on peddling a narrative of an imminent Twitter apocalypse that didn't happen.

Enforcing the ToS on all accounts and banning and deranking scam bots, etc is all I am seeing rather than before, illegal CP content and scam bots running rampant and were left ignored by the executives. People complaining about Twitter now should have left years ago before Musk bought it, but still tolerated the outrage, scam bots and CP for years.

As you said, the best thing to do is to check the sources yourself and not blindly listen to the single narrative peddled by the mainstream media.
You don’t experience inner dialog or visualizations? Some people don’t, but I assume you recall dreaming. Opponents of qualia like Dennett argue against the movie in the head, but dreams sure aren’t coming from the external environment.
It's a strange thing, people like Shaun Webb that demonstrate high intelligence in a specialized field can simultaneously be mindless sheep and follow/advocate "the current thing"...
What do you mean by long-lived? Fission products all become harmless ‘ less radioactive than the rocks we pulled out of the ground initially within ~300 years. That is well within the lifetime we can design containment systems for and far too soon for language drift to become a serious problem to communicating risks.

Actinides produced, ie uranium that absorbed some neutrons but didn’t fission and so became some other elements lime plutonium, americium, etc., do have half lives in the thousands to tens of thousands of years but are a much smaller fraction of the waste fuel than the fission products. They can also be put back into reactors to burn up.

If you reprocess spent nuclear fuel, then you can take all the very radioactive fission products and separate them out, vitrify them, and put them somewhere. You only get about one tonne of those per GWe-yr of reactor power, and as I said, they become harmless in a few hundred years. The bulk of the remainder is U-238, which is most of nuclear fuel anyway. And the remaining ~1% or so is actinides which along with the U-238 can be mixed with fresh U-238 and U-235 to create new fuel rods which then go into reactors.

Thus the only thing you really produce out of a fuel reprocessing system is the fission products, which aren’t long-lived. The only reason the US has a bunch of spent fuel with lifetimes of tens of thousands of years lying around is because we banned fuel reprocessing for no good reason in the late 70s.

The entire country could run on 3TWe of nuclear power and never have more than 900k tonnes of fission products under management ever, and could be placed in a total of ~8 million tonnes of glass like the French use, taking up a volume roughly equal to a square kilometer at a depth of ~3 meters.

So, both sides are right. Nuclear is too slow, but renewables are not fast enough / sufficient either.

Another thing is that politicians tend to plan that things will continue to go about as well as they are going at the moment, and the only major crisis ahead is the one being discussed at the moment. Nobody has the nerve to think that e.g. France will have trouble with several nuclear reactors at once, and a major war erupts in Europe at the same time. Ah, and a global pandemic right before that. Who in their right mind would vote for an energy budget based on such paranoid view of a possible future?
CS solved this problem, but not in such a way yet that we don't have to think about it anymore. If Python's dict implemented all of this under the hood then it could be called a solved problem.
Right on. I’m always amazed when we go to a restaurant and there are kids on iPads while eating.

There is no question that iPads are the easiest solution, but it’s rarely the best solution, and it’s certainly not necessary. Humanity survived for thousands of years without having iPads for kiddos at restaurants.
The theme in Windows 2000 and its classic counterpart in XP 64-bit used a darker shade of blue for the background, which I always tried to hand-select on the systems that I had (and weren't running these versions).

There was also some tiny difference between the active window colors as well, IIRC.
Believe or not, especially if we order something she really likes, she'll sit there eating her food and talk to us, making comments about things she notices in her environment. Before the food comes, she'll just look around and make conversation about what she sees.

Could this be just her personality and we got lucky? Possibly. But I'm willing to bet it also has to do with her not being used to screens and instead being used to focusing on the environment in front of and around her. There are studies about the association between screen time and ADHD symptoms.
OP's post strongly implies that they were diagnosed with ADHD long before the issues with Slack.

my cholesterol goes up proportionally to saturated fat intake, the link between saturated fat and LDL cholesterol (and LDL cholesterol and heart disease) is quite clear despite a huge desire from the public for there to be other "studies" that somehow make it OK to down any amount of dairy. I spent many years hoping for such studies all the while my 300-level cholesterol was lining my arteries with plaque until I finally had to get on statins (not a vegan here).
> They need to be trained to provide trust. The AlphaCode model generates code, but does not generate documentation or tests that would build trust in the code.

I don't understand how this would build trust.

If they generate test cases, you have to validate the test cases.

If they generate documentation, you have to validate the documentation.

For a one-shot drop of code from an unknown party, test cases and docs have been signals that the writer know that's a thing, and they at least put effort into typing it. So maybe we assume more likely that they also used good practices with the code.

But that's signalling to build trust, and adding those to build trust without addressing the reasons we shouldn't have trust in the code (as this article points out) seems like it would be building misplaced trust.

(Though there is some benefit to doc for validation, due to the idea behind the old saying "if your code and documentation disagree, then both are probably wrong".)

Maybe this is obvious to people that do accounting for multinationals, but it's not clear to me how you even establish that 10% of the revenue was in France.

If a global company like Google pays a global company like Apple $K billion to be the default search engine on iphones, should Apple consider that revenue to be all in the US because Google is headquartered in the US even though it's purchasing something that will apply to people in lots of countries? Does it matter if Google uses local corporations in a number of companies to each pay Apple? If Google pays through its subsidiary in the jurisdiction with the highest corporate taxes, can it force Apple to realize revenue there?

I have ADHD, and this is how I use Slack too. Works wonders and makes it manageable.

Another thing I've found useful is just leaving channels where I find little to no value. If there's something important you need to be involved in, 99% of the time you'll get added back and can catch-up to contribute. In my experience with Slack, you end up in channels for "visibility" on things that have no impact on you and you have no impact on.

I'm unsure what you mean with mainstream laptop, but with my Asus zenbook I had these problems:

* Sleeping doesn't work, hibernate sometimes work

* Keyboard buttons for screen brightness doesn't work

* Ambient light sensor doesn't work

* Vsync doesn't work

* Processor always highly clocked, draining battery

I was able to fix some of the issues in Ubuntu by compiling kernel addons of some sort. When I switched to Arch I could with the help of their Wiki fix all of the issues, but there was lot of text config files to edit, and some more compiling of kernel stuff. Even after that I still couldn't get vsync to work properly. Watching youtube while the screen is tearing all the time is very annoying.

If you want to run linux you should get a laptop that is validated to work, like framework or validated dell laptops. At least then you might only need to fix one or two issues.
Signalling as communication of information (e.g., "I'm following these practices, which tells you something about what to expect about things that might be important to you"). Not the "virtue signalling" meme talking point to dismiss.
What's needed, I think, is for some other service to have its Big Break moment. Right now people still talk about Twitter because sometimes things actually happen on Twitter. In between the vast oceans of inanity there's occasional real breaking news or genuine insights. Sometimes, it's an actual trend (as opposed to things that journalists hope will be trends).

None of that has yet broken out on Mastodon. It could, and if it does, people might say, "I'll spend more of my valuable waking hours on that application rather than this one." That is the one thing that genuinely cuts into Twitter's enormous incumbent advantage: the more people go elsewhere, the more people it encourages.

The gradual outflow of celebrities could lead to that thing. Right now I'm seeing a fair bit of inertia: as bad as Musk is, they want to continue doing whatever the hell it was they were doing on Twitter. They don't want to re-build it from scratch on a new site (and Musk sure isn't gonna make it easy for them). They worked hard to get the followers they've got.
The last "proprietary Unix" I worked with was AIX, way back in 2006. And that was only because their primary customer was an AIX shop. The code itself would actually run on Linux.

Previous to that (late 90's, early 2000's) it was mainly Solaris. One place was fairly heterogeneous, and had Solaris, HP-UX, Digital Unix (aka OSF/1, Tru64), and a couple others.

These arguments do matter since the system often confidently <<reasons>> incorrectly, and people still incorrectly believe that the system actually deduces semantic meaning behind it's output. The system has no grounding in truth whatsoever. It's impressive nonetheless, but it's still a large lookup table for pattern matching. I'm convinced bruteforcing these LLMs won't give us anything near AGI. We're going to need to start funding more alternatives too, which often are shadowed by these large bruteforce models.
So you just don't believe that first order logic exists then?
I have ADHD diagnosed. I turned off all slack notifications. In fact, I almost always turn off all notifications. My mind is my domain and I choose when others can inject into it. The reason is, my job isn't some disaster related topic (well it is because it's climate change related but that disaster doesn't happen tomorrow). So that means, if poeple really need me, they can come find me, email me, send me a message on slack, or whatever. And i will reply to it when i get it. Nobody has ever seemed to have a problem with this and everyone seems to respect that I have limits on when I want to do things because I have my own things to do.

On a related note, I noticed that many of the things I had labeled as ADHD related went away after going to therapy and realizing why I do things to please others, over achieve and stay constantly involved and on top of everything, etc. It was very easy to label that as ADHD but in fact, the motivating factors that pushed me to reply to every email immediately, reply to every slack message, like, comment, subscribe everything was related to my personal schemas and modes. Not to discredit ADHD as a contributing factor, but I suddenly found like I had control over things when I began addressing these underlying internal beliefs.

Yeah Norvig seems to be vindicated by deep learning models as a sophisticated markov chain which can give pretty good results purely through probability.

Even norvig acknowledges that there are edges cases which probability will have a hard time on, especially untrained. Chomsky tends to focus on these with his focus on emulation instead of markov simulation.

They're slowly stuffing that shit into updates of Windows 10 too.

and no one seems to care.

I suspect that's largely because of learned helplessness and the bias that search engines and the like seem to have developed. Instead of piles of critical articles about all the worst parts, we get SEO'd sites parroting the same unbearably positive marketing copy about how much "better" Win11 is.
My first though was "good", but then I started to wonder why it wasn't illegal and if there's some downside we don't see. For example if it's like foie gras that people don't like because they think it's cruel but has important culinary value, and isn't driving species extinction or anything. Seal fur is another example that comes to mind, opposition is based more on how cute the animal is than any actual environmental concerns.

Eleven people voted against the bill, I wonder what their motivation was. Personally I have no idea, if this is the equivalent of an ivory ban, makes complete sense, if it's foie gras, not so much.
I haven’t (yet) watched Twin Peaks but I’d wholeheartedly concur with that endorsement. For quality / episode ratio, I’d put it up there with the first four seasons of the Wire (10/10).

The first episode of Severance is quite slow with regards to plot but still visually compelling. The cinematography, music and character building stay consistently excellent throughout the series but the drama and tension increasingly ramp up so much that my wife and I were on the edge of our seats for the last few episodes. It was so good that I intend to re-watch Season One before watching Season Two (I’m guessing that there will be follow-up) comes out.

My wife and I both really enjoyed the first two seasons of For All Mankind. She generally dislikes science fiction and anything to do with space but was soon won over by the human element and the great characters. However, we both felt that the quality of the show (particularly the writing) fell hard with the third season.

We both also thought that Shining Girls was an excellent mini-series and have Slow Horses lined up to watch next.
No, if we are talking about VAT then companies have to make the following sum

€800 VAT the company charged to clients
€500 VAT the company paid to suppliers
===== -
€300 VAT the company has to pay to authorities

This system makes sure that VAT over any good will only be charged once. VAT usually rolls over from one company to the next till it reaches its destination, the consumer.

ULTIMATELY, the consumer pays the VAT. The consumer cannot deduct VAT.

This will be watered down in every way imaginable, escpecially the usual suspects like Malta with a straight up fraudluently advertised 30+ % corporate tax rate ,but they "refund" you everything but 5%, making it an effective 5% tax rate.

There is no way Malta will play along, it is a small state abusing all the EU benefits for nefarious purposes and never contributing anything useful.

This is just an example, there are many, many more more sophisticated schemes like that, Malta is just doing it openly.

Ted talks as “middlebrow megachurch infotainment” (2014)
This problem came up before on Reddit. After a bit of code-golfing style optimisation the general consensus was that for searching for passwords in a file the optimal exact solution (which excludes Bloom filters) was:

Compute the SHA1 of each password. Sort. Store in a binary file, so for 'n' passwords the file is '20n' bytes in length exactly.

Compute the SHA1 of the candidate password, and use the prefix to guess at the location in the file. Read a block of +/- a few kilobytes around that guessed location. This will have a "hit" about 99% of the time, and at this guess will have to be refined at most 2-3 times.

It's possible to precompute the maximum +/- error bounds, and also to produce a tiny (~100KB) second level index that can guarantee a hit in one I/O operation for a lookup. For a file that's bigger than memory, this is absolutely optimal and cannot be improved upon (without sacrificing the exact answers).
In that case, they could always consider nationalizing Netflix France, and paying Netflix $0 in compensation. It is, after all, a completely profitless venture, losing it would be no big loss to Netflix.
