Honestly you might have had a hard time understanding that speech in person
As a 40-something myself, also pretty much alone (by choice), I have had to think about this as well.

What you are looking for to feel good is respect. Are you acting in a way that is worthy of respect? Fact of the matter is, earning respect is hard. Yes, it can be done through career, but it can also be done in how you treat yourself, how you treat others.

It's easy to get lost self-pity, I've been there. The only answer is to pick one hard thing where you lack skills, and work on it. Just one. For me, it was being more outgoing. Anyone asks me to do something social, the answer is always "yes". Someone wants to come over for dinner? "Ugh fine", in my head, "Oh that would be amazing!", to the other.

You are where you are potentially because you chose the easy path, instead of doing what is hard.
This isn't installing Linux on a HDD. This is running Linux on a HDD, on the HDD controller itself - a good hack!

Also the end of the article (page 6) discusses the potential impact of computers running in your computer, including security implications. When you plug a hard drive in, do you trust it?

I second that, I would suggest move to a larger city and get a job and therapist there (looks like the OP is from Germany, which I would personally prefer to US).

And regarding to life goals, wife and kids in particular, although I have decided not to have a family, so take my advice with a grain of salt, but I think there are many single mothers out there who would appreciate a stable and solid partner with 2nd income.
Great solution, if we didn't have to install a JRE on a server.
These issues apply to D-T fuel, whose output energy is 80% high-energy neutrons. Helion is using D-D/D-He3, whose output would be only 6% neutrons, at lower energy. If you do the D-D reactions in specialized fuel production facilities, you could sell the He3 to anyone with an He3 power plant and they'll have zero neutron radiation to deal with or misuse.

Even with D-T, the reactor waste would stop being dangerously radioactive in a few decades.
I agree with the author that frequent shadowbanning is harmful to communities, but I think he's missing some nuance.

First, not every member of a website is trying to be part of its community, so it's unfair to expect the community to care about them in return.

Second, most people are not rational, and some people are mentally ill. If you have a person with schizophrenia posting, transparent moderation won't be heeded in the way that you want.
> Look at who won the world cups!

Looking over the winners of the early world cups, I'm trying to square the results with what you've written here (I'm not a soccer watcher): Europe won 5 out of the first 10 world cups (1930-1974); Italy won both the second and third. England won the 1966 cup, which interrupted Pele's run of World Cup wins.
AHhh I see :D No worries, I just clicked it out of curiosity and was a little confused that someone would use this in their marketing copy :D
I don't know why we need science to make healthier versions of food that naturally is healthy.

Unless it's science to scale up tradition food systems and abandon the unhealthy food system we have today.
Huh… you’re saying ICE also isn’t the end of RICE, or Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation?

All this is confusing.

> Voice chat is a staple of online games. Having a core feature included in a game by default is common sense.

It is so common sense that many games have minute long sections where it is outright impossible to mute trolls because the controls for voice chat aren't always accessible. Quite sure Fallout 76 didn't have any controls for it at all when it came out. The only choice in that case is to mute sound permanently, which is fucking stupid.

> Having a core feature included in a game by default is common sense.

I rarely use voice chat and the build in one even less. Call me old fashioned but I often just use a team speak server when playing with friends - once it works, it works for all games.
They discourage use of "brave" as a noun, which does mean "a Native American Warrior" (Free Dictionary). I never heard the word used as a noun, but I'm not a native speaker.
Doesn't look like they have a problem with brave as an adjective.
Your life isn’t turning out what you expected, but it doesn’t mean you can’t be happy. You have to accept that happiness will be different than what you pictured in your 20s.

My best friend that I’ve known for 45 years now was a fuck up. We are in our 50s and for most of his life he was lazy and borderline in poverty. He drank all his money away. But he’s a funny, nice guy. He had girlfriends but none for a long time because he’s not a keeper. Finally, he met a woman in her 40s last year and they are going to get married this year. They are planning on having a child, maybe through adoption. He finally got a permanent job as a teacher this year after struggling for a decade. He is out of debt. He is finally in a good place.

You can turn things around but embrace the fact that it won’t be traditional. It’s okay, happiness doesn’t have to be traditional.
Ukraine: Documenting torture despite mines, blackouts, and pervasive fear
I'm really glad I get most of my documents digital right now. I can download them, sort them into folders on my home server, and I'm happy as I could be. If I need a file or invoice, I simply open my server's folder structure and grab the one I need.
No it's not a breakthrough. It is only net positive because the NIF has an exquisitely stupid and convenient place where they are defining "energy in" which let's them cheat how good it looks. If you could take other types of fusion and draw a clever line around where you start tallying energy in, then they would have had "breakthroughs" long ago.
Explainer: The Science of Nuclear Fusion
Great comment thank you for that. Sums up my thoughts on this well.

I intentionally seek out people who disagree with me, but I find that people generally do not like talking to those who disagree with them. Hard to find those conversations.

On HN those conversations are heated by their nature so you get shut down by mods. Nanny state to some degree.

I also believe if you are not allowed to be rude to people they tend to find their positions are tenable when they aren't.

I don't mean harassment, but rough dialogue. There is a line certainly.
OK but that was a decade ago, it means he could do it at one point.
Absolutely. For anyone that’s been for a while the last hype period was a case of “I’ve seen this play before and I know what happens in Act III.” It’s been a while since we’ve had a solid down market and thus there are a lot of people that haven’t seen how the play ends yet but are about to find out. The optimistic long term view is that after the storm the cycle begins anew and new companies rise from the ashes.
i uploaded the raw audio of myself and in the beginning I'm talking to myself while off mic. Adobe turned it into some weird non-english thing.
Showdead shows all dead posts, both those from shadowbanned accounts and individual posts that have received negative upvotes.
That shit began way before the Internet. The 2nd Iraq war was just the same in European public discourse, thankfully Schröder chose to rather annoy the US than drag us in this clusterfuck.
You dress for the wind chill. I'm actually having trouble understanding your question because I can't think of any circumstance where you wouldn't.

I don't care about the wind speed as a separate number because it's useless to me except in how much it converts to wind chill, since I'm not going outside to fly a kite.

Perhaps I simply don't understand the concept of dressing to be windproof or not. Virtually all winter outerwear is "windproof" enough. People aren't usually going outside for an extended period of time in a cable-knit sweater as their outer layer.

Also -- you do understand that the wind still makes you colder regardless of how windproof your clothing is?
Digital piracy golden age was in the 2000s and they released everything on DVD. But I think it was streaming that basically killed the idea that people would pay hundreds of euro for a box set.

I distinctly remember buying a single season of Westwood for 40 euro!
If you're using a tool like excel to work with data with more than 64,000 rows or analyze data, or if you're collaboratively editing a dataset in a non-version-controlled format... best of luck to you, I'll send flowers to your widow.
Are you implying this is a good thing or a bad thing?
Didn’t we already know it’s just an engineering problem by virtue of the sun existing?
An antibiotic won't significantly weaken your body. And there are many situations where prescribing antibiotics without a doing culture yields better outcomes because of timing. Particularly with severe illnesses like sepsis or severe cases of pneumonia, UTIs, and so on.

I worked in an ER room in Central Europe while I was studying medicine a while ago. We saved many lives by prescribing wide-spectrum antibiotics for advanced pneumonia without waiting for bac culture results. Once patients deteriorate beyond naturally getting enough oxygen, their chances of survival go down for every 12 hours the treatment is delayed.

I laugh when I see researchers say that medics should use narrow-spectrum antibiotics for patients like these. They forget "first, do no harm", which delaying treatment would undoubtedly do. Besides, no good doctor wants to kill their patients to be "right".

Aside from antibiotics, the off-label use of many medicines has helped many people tremendously. Doctors sometimes do know better than guidelines.

I agree that there are other, more grey-area situations with antibiotic use. Especially when doctors are a bit lazy and want to get done quickly with a patient with a mild infection, those situations are not very ethical. However, off-guideline use of antibiotics can save lives. That is my point.
With "identity certificates" or "electronic IDs" used in parts of Europe, documents are indeed signed with asymmetric cryptography: a recipient of a document can't modify it and keep the signature valid.
what was "the chat problem" ?
How did people move around in those countries before 2010?

Taxis. But those were put out of business by Uber.
It's never too late for anything. You have previous experience in BI/Analytics and it's still a good area to work in, lots of resources on the internet if you want to pickup a new tool. Focus on the positive aspects of life and count on your strengths and you will soon be on a roll. Walking/running has helped me personally both physically and mentally, so I will recommend that the most. Wishing you the very best.
With the Higgs, we got the mass, which was not predicted by any of the theoretical models. We were basically done at that point. With LIGO we got tons of tangible data of black holes colliding.

Fusion is not useful until Q>1, and for NIF to claim that when it obviously isn't true is, IMO, a bad look. They invented Qplasma where they arbitrarily get to ignore over 99% of the energy that actually went in, and don't need to worry about capturing any of the energy actually coming out. They got Qplasma>1, which is a great milestone, but the overwhelming narrative in the media is that they got more energy out than they put in, which is simply not true.

Someone, and almost certainly someone *ELSE* will get to Q>1 very soon. Lots of groups are targeting 2024-2025. That will be a major breakthrough, but in the public mind, NIF already did it, and I guarantee that's going to cause a lot of confusion.

It just feels like a marathon race where a bunch of competitors are competing honestly, and one participant jumps in a scooter, and blasts through the finish line, and the crowd is cheering, and they're doing interviews about how great it was to win the race, and people are going home, but the actual race is still happening, and getting super interesting, but no one cares anymore because that milestone was already claimed by someone who didn't even accomplish it.
They had even blocked my account and its pretty shit. They don't even give any reason.One of many reasons I vote for decentralization.
One of the things about reaching this point is that we can reconsider just how much of that complex process is required - like getting the poc of some code working, then working backwards to strip away what isn't necessary.
If that were correct it would be based on market cap not stock price

It's likely just because for legacy reasons exchanges can't handle fractions of a cent, so below $1 the price becomes too discrete
"Just because it's at the moment more isolated again, dosn't mean it's less european."

When speaking in political terms, it does mean exactly that. There is a clear wall between moscow and europe and everyday more of the remaining ties are being cut.

10 years ago, it was a lot different.

But of course this does not affect the geographical classification of moscow, but this is really not the same.
The first time my colleague (full-stack developer) showed me ChatGPT he was like "we're out of jobs" and the same goes for my GF who's a teacher. The opportunities of ChatGPT are enormous and we are probably just starting to get a glimpse of its capabilities..
Some of the criticisms of Chat GPT have involved its lack of bringing sources and credibility to its output. Since it's extremely good at predicting the next word for a given input and not whether a fact is correct or not, we wanted to bring in an easy way to fact-check or discover controversial claims to the model's output.
Simply copy in ChatGPT output in the AI editor and it will mark all factual claims, and use a fact-checking algorithm to find online sources that support, dispute, or are neutral toward claims made. The goal is to give users a faster overview of controversial claims, not to be a judge of what's true or not.

The AI Editor is free (You need to create an account) and in development, but you are welcome to try it out editor.factiverse.no!
You can also see a quick breakdown of it here:

It sounds like do have a good number of things going for you from, based just on what you wrote and how you wrote it.

Your English is great, and your writing clear and coherent. You have considerable savings, which means you were frugal when you were earning, and have made your savings last one decade already. Finishing a MechEng degree and working as an analyst shows you’re intelligent.

It sounds like you are focusing on the things that are not going for you right now. It would help you to speak more candidly with a trained professional. Finding a therapist that you can open up to and have good conversations with sounds like a good bet.
That would have been nice. Now the CO2 level is high enough to do serious damage, so if we could bring it back down we'd have a healthier planet and save ourselves a lot of pain.
Because we've been told for decades that commercial fusion plants are a decade away. So people are understandably cynical about it. Really, physics has had a problem of late over hyping things that don't impact people's lives. Maybe that's unfair to expect every discover will directly lead to noticeable changes in technology. But I would argue that researchers over estimate how much people care about their discoveries. Laymen don't understand or care about minor milestones if they don't directly impact them. Or to put it another way, people will be receptive if you have a big achievement at your job but will get annoyed if you tell them every detail about it.

So yeah, when people are told fusion is around the corner but all they hear are small improvements that to them mean nothing, its easy to see why. Now obviously not everyone is that way, there are communities of laymen and amateurs online who are interested and do care. But you don't need public press conferences to get to them. A press conference is for Joe Sixpack. And Joe Sixpack assumes when you come calling about Fusion its to say that it works, global warming has been solved and his electric bill will be next to nothing.
One thing that's always bothered me about the olivine methods (MgSiO3 + CO2 >> MgCO3 + SiO2) is that this is the same mechanism that is postulated to destroy the biosphere (via carbon deprivation) in a few hundred million years. I'm not sure what the expectation is for re-release of the carbon on geological timescales, but it should certainly be investigated before these schemes are actually deployed.
Oof, I liked Gamestream compared to the alternatives. Would be nice to see some clarification if this is just for Shield, or if they plan to kill Gamestream use all together...

There's an open source implementation of the Gamestream called Sunshine that does pretty well, but it's got a few kinks still (no HDR support).
Your life is not over, you still have opportunity ahead. I am 37 going on 38 and I am just now starting to recover from a three year life struggle / burnout experience. I've had three really traumatic work experiences and I worked at a pizza kitchen and a kayak store for a while because I felt worthless and that I was no longer able to contribute to society and my friends in the way I used to.

That last part was not true. Even if you cannot immediately see its effect you have value. It felt true but it's hard to get back on your feet and most people will kick you while you are down or feign concern with self gratifying pity.

My advice to you is to sail into prevailing winds and lean into things that "fuck you back" as one of my favorite youtubers simone giertz said recently.

Be open to directions and opportunities you may not have been willing to persue. After months / years of under/unemployment I took a job that wasn't exactly what I'd been holding out for but it's getting the bills paid and providing a stability to my life that's been gone for a long time.

I missed out on some of the prime earning years of my life. Because society rejected me, not because I pissed on some electric fence. I've been honest and myself and I haven't had the support I wish I did. Life isn't fair like that.

The best you can do is just try to move forward, do things that give you some value in yourself and seek out life experiences that will enrich yourself and others. Find some other people who are interested in your preferences and relationships personal and beyond are possible. Its cliche but sometimes it comes to you when you stop looking for it.

so to sum up:
I've had a similar life crisis, its been going on for about three years and I think I'm starting to trend up? I don't make nearly as much as I used to but at least I CAN pay the bills and I'm trying to work on a couple side projects that I hope will both get me some extra income as well as make me feel good for doing fun creative things that others can enjoy.
Idk. It works for me perfectly on Firefox 107.0.1 arm64.

Your suicidal ideation seems to me a direct result of your own ideas about yourself. You say you’re healthy and able but you’re not doing anything to change your situation (which is admittedly crappy). You don’t enjoy your life, even though you’re healthy and disease free. I know someone who has a chronic illness that will kill them eventually. They work towards their goals and are generally a happy person.

It’s about your outlook.

Basically: If you don’t like your situation, change it. Can you change your life? The probability is 99.99% yes. But you have to change your mind first.

I’d say see a therapist asap. Try better help . Com or some other remote service if you can’t find one nearby.
I don’t usually comment on spelling, but it’s central to your point. “Herd thinning.”
How do you plot graphs with org? I've been trying to use it for that purpose but I can't wrap my head around how to do it without some tikz incantation I don't really understand. I've seen gnuplot mentioned here and there but the setup seems pretty involved.

I'm looking for a way to plot simple numeric data signals in time series, which are pretty trivial in jupyter notebooks.
I know that you might feel alone in all this mess, but sometimes, seeing a character echo your emotions also comes into play.

Might I suggest giving this a read? https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/56565/all-the-lonely-peopl...

It is a free, well-written novel (must I say the story is super good in terms of quality) and this resonated with me. And again, you are not alone, and there are people out there who wish good for you.

I'd argue Q>1 isn't worth a press conference either. People care about commercial power generation and that needs more like Q>150.
> I don't want to write all of my stack in a cloud programming language. Especially one that is completely new and not cross-compatible with any other language. This isn't just a small thing -- it's a complete dealbreaker. There's no tools, no libraries. It's been a decade since Nim has started development and look at its progress now with so much interest behind it. Creating PLs and compilers follows the 80/20% rule.. it will take mountains of work to even make the compiler truly optimized and usable, and that's a basic prerequisite.

I think this is especially important in this space. If I use Terraform, in addition to tons of tools and experience in the community, there are a variety of mature tools for things like compliance and cost checks. If I use AWS CloudFormation, the same is true. That doesn't mean I wouldn't consider a new tool but it would have to be especially valuable to make up for the cost of losing that baseline.
Which is exactly how much loyalty the drivers owe the companies!
