> Which brings me to the point: Compliance isn't just there to cargocult and boxtick. It's there because, left to their own devices, most organisations/sub-organisations will end up, at pinnacle-best, half-assing security.

There is one company I know of that added a two step login to their azure active directory where logins expire every twenty four hours. It made no sense to me why they did things this way. As far as I knew, even Microsoft wasn't this restrictive with logins.

Until I saw last week that people are willing to let tools like https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34416386 basically hijack their session tokens. If they can use this for good, imagine what other add-ons can use this for evil...

So I think the idea is if someone steals your credentials, they will only work for twenty four hours and they would fail because hopefully they don't have your two step authenticator? I still don't like the idea but at least I see why they'd do this...

Edit: maybe someone else here has a better idea why it is a good idea to require password and two step authentication every twenty four hours?
Yes it works with less than half of the 20-25 tons of cargo that a regular semi transports.
Yep. Pre-generics, Java was considered a good teaching language because of its simplicity and the ability to hold the entire language in your head. I think it's much more difficult to make that argument now. The same for Python. Moreover, while Python 3's unicode/byte string separation was a crucial step, IMV other features from Python 3 haven't made a big impact on how useful the language is.

Medical student here. I’m impressed by ChatGPT’s ability to come close to passing Step 2/3. I tried plugging in my own question banks that I used for studying and it got many right. Even when it was wrong it was also “almost right” and its answer would not be disparaged on rounds.

However one thing to keep in mind: a bot passing these exams alone will not disrupt medicine. There are plenty of doctors today that could ace these exams. I don’t think that the ability to outsource medical decision making to a bot will change much, especially since 90% of medical decision making is already outsourced to a flowchart or an “expert attending” physician. Much of the value of doctors today comes from procedures, patient interaction, legal liability, and patient trust, which cannot yet be done by a bot.
Would you even see what it does in a screenshot? I think you would need a photo.
Issues with mercurial like that just throw python stack traces at you and say good luck. mercurial isn't good enough to be special from everyone else using git. it's like using your own keyboard layout, of course you can. but there's a cost for not really a good reason.
>A vocal group of people, whose background is not strictly energy production/storage, shouts down anything but solar/wind/batteries.

And most global warming activists aren't climate scientists.

Meanwhile the military industrial complex, who DGAF about the environment but crave lavish taxpayer subsidies for a nuclear economy, is shouting down solar, wind and storage - largely because it competes for subsidies and its low cost renders it a no brainer alternative.

They are louder, richer, more persuasive (cynically leveraging environmental messaging) and considerably more powerful than people who care more for the environment than military supply chains.

As with global warming itself, appeal to moderation doesn't work - the best solution doesnt lie half way between these two extremes.
Wholeheartedly agree. I think it’s a great shame that so many communities are centered around Discord, closed off to search engines, and essentially just black holes for knowledge. It does indeed feel like a significant regression from the days of forums.
How do I manage? with the help of assistive tools. Calendars, timers, reminders, alarms. They all contribute to the ability to get something done. You also need to learn techniques to help control the emotions that are involved with the procrastination you face. The good news is you can improve. The bad news is, if you have ADHD, you'll probably never be at the same level of someone who doesn't suffer from it.

My comment history offers other advice and suggestions for ADHD. It's a long struggle but it's worth it.

I published a CLI for doing rotation for any display here: https://github.com/alin23/mac-utils/blob/main/bin/RotateDisp...

Source code in the same repo: https://github.com/alin23/mac-utils/blob/main/RotateDisplay....

As long as the system reports `true` for `canChangeOrientation`, then the CLI should work.

Lunar (https://lunar.fyi/) can also do that and provides some useful hotkeys if you happen to rotate displays often: https://files.alinpanaitiu.com/2106f2eac02df0c3eec379ef19965...

Everyone is always ready to flair up at the government, when these are only ephemeral bodies of individuals.

Humans are corruptible with treacherous hearts.

The government couldn’t really do enough to protect us from each other, yet through the veil of modern civility we have little foreboding of one and other and such a suspicion for the body of governance made in our own image.

Probably easiest to just calculate the inverse? You're rendering the pixel that the original one would be transformed to, so you just have to find the original one in the sampled texture. Maybe just doing the same sin/cos vector but with negative angle.
The only numbers that may exist in nature are the non-negative rationals. Negative numbers are widely useful, but they don't exist in any meaningful way: they're an abstraction over reality. Irrational numbers definitely don't exist, and don't get me started on so-called "imaginary" numbers -- they're no less present in nature than the negative numbers are.

But the concepts are useful, and the symbols have meaning. The article mentions normal words having different meanings in mathematical language, and that impacts even every-day use of maths.

Peak Storage
Yeah, this is definitely how I ended up dealing with it too. I just replaced my computer as the motherboard failed and hadn't setup sync on chrome. I have 1000s of links I no longer have access to and haven't missed them once in 3 months.

File and forget is incredibly effective when you have ADHD. There are just too many things that are "interesting" that you'll never have time to do anything about.

Just write it down (or an equivalent) so your brain can stop worrying about it. You'll find in a few weeks time the things that didn't actually matter are gone.

When I was having anxiety problems it was also an extremely effective way of getting out of the circular thinking loop. Write down all your worries on a new tab in Notepad++. All the worries stopped circulating. When I might occasionally look at that tab in a month or two's time. usually I didn't even care about any of those things anymore. Even though they'd all been thought obsessing distractions a couple of months earlier.

And lists, lists, lists. I'm at my most happiest when every day I create a short-ish to-do list for work and a list for home and throw it away at the start of the next day. I try and keep it below 7-8 things, in reality I often get 3-5 done. I fall out of the habit fairly frequently, and that's often when I start feeling overwhelmed.

Plus exercise, exercise, exercise. If I haven't exercised for more than about 5 days, I start becoming a right asshole who gets anxious about the most ridiculous things.

It's not about saving the planet, it's about saving humans. The planet will be completely fine and will adapt (painful though it may be). The ecosystem has survived much worse, it's just us humans that don't have a few million years to wait for everything to re-balance.

I helped with the Eve language, which was a VC funded attempt down this path (https://witheve.com). This was cut short when the money ran out, so it wasn’t a full attempt.

After that project ended I started working on my own attempt called Mech which specifically handles the time-travel and what-if features you mentioned (https://GitHub.com/mech-lang/mech you can play with an early alpha version here: http://docs.mech-lang.org/#/examples/bouncing-balls.mec). I’ve made sure money running out won’t kill this project, so hopefully it’s a fuller attempt.

Someone else posted a link to futureofcoding.org, which is a community that works on these types of projects. You can find a lot more there.
Not ADHD⁰ but I have similar issues with HN and similar. This usually results in a great many open tabs, different ones in different places¹, spread over numerous browser windows where applicable. I need a better way to manage it all but what currently happens is:

* Anything not being immediately looked at is shovelled to a different desktop to help keep focus. Tabs on phones are move to this desktop on one of the other machines.

* When browser memory use starts to climb it is time for a pruning session. Things that I don't really remember usually weren't that significant and are just dropped. Other get filed with notes in my collection of “possible projects/playthings” text files that are kept on a server accessible to all my devices⁴. This can take some time as I usually get distracted and end up climbing back down the rabbit-holes that resulted in some of those open tabs in the first place…

* I've started actively trying to be “evil” with myself and controlling the amount of time I'm here. This sometimes means passing up on links in favour of others, or just opening the tab but not looking at it until later (if I don't end up having time later this either gets closed or moved to that dumping ground desktop). If something is relevant to particular projects or idea groups the links (source and HN thread) go directly into the relevant project text files, skipping further attention/triage, to be looked at in more detail in that mythical future time that I properly look into said project(s) again.

I used to use a mind-mapping tool to keep the lists of lists of related lists of lists & notes together, but that became unwieldy so went back to tetx files. I've tried or just looked at various apps² and not spotted anything that matches what I want. A couple of those many project files concern writing my own tool to manage my brain-dumps, or at least a tool to help index/search the lists/notes as they are currently stored.

Occasional lost windows full of tabs due to browser crashes that have had no lasting effect on my life should probably be a sign that I should just stop caring to a large extent, but that is never going to happen!

It's sad but I heard HP already sold off the support and development of HP Prime to another company. There are still bugs to be fixed, but next firmware update may never come.

> You’re ascribing a negative motive by establishing one could exist. Surely there are petty tyrants on Reddit. But the much simpler, most generous, and most likely explanation is they enjoy a hobby and enjoy fostering a healthy community around their hobby, and that this itself is a hobby of theirs

That seems to be near exclusive to smaller communities

Well, if you get good moderators, sure, that works.

Nope, it's creating zero value of its own. Janitor or gargabe man would be better comparison

I set "noprocrast" in my profile: maxvisit=30 and minaway=360 (just upped from 120). So 30 mins for looking at the frontpage links and writing a comment if I want to. Then 6 hours where I'm reminded that I'm opening HN on an impulse.

For the links, anything that is a 5-10 min read I'll do on the spot. I try to be mindful with more involved content (long post, video, tutorial,...): I save the link in my inbox file with a small description of the content for reference or to read during a break – or never.

Looking at my inbox, I often delete links without opening them because, in hindsight, I saved them to have something (anything) to read. It's the same as opening the fridge multiple times and lowering your expectations each time until you find good enough food. By setting noprocrast, you put a time lock on your imaginary fridge to stop you from mindless snacking.

Ivan Sapozhnik (https://twitter.com/iSapozhnik) is working on adding this to his Lasso app (https://thelasso.app/). It's not an easy problem to solve as there's no API that can just save and restore windows, a lot of inventive solutions have been tried and failed.

Situation in Germany: House prices are going down the last few months, but much more slowly than they consistently rose during the preceding 15 years. At the same time interest has sharply risen.

Compared to prices there's a much bigger decrease in new construction, which I'd interpret as people increasingly not pursuing houses and instead piling onto the rent market. Urban/suburban/"sprawl" houses were basically a DI(preferably-NK-and-wealthy-parents-chipping-in) and beyond thing before, I'd suspect houses will continue to shrink while drifting even further up the income distribution and everyone else must rent for life - at an average rent/income ratio of around one third which has only ever been going up, and is of course much higher for non-DI households.

Home ownership rate has always been falling and continues to do so (fell below 50 % in 2022). It'll get a lot lower when boomers start leaving their houses (feet first most likely), because baby boomers have far high home ownership rate than following generations. And with recent changes to the way houses are legally valuated and inheritance taxation I'd suspect many kids of baby boomers can't actually afford to inherit their parents houses and will have to sell.

I dunno where this is supposed to converge to. Everyone renting at >50 % of net income (which is already not at all uncommon, especially for singles in cities) from huge housing companies?
All of the tech in (say) the iPhone was already in use elsewhere. Apple's great success was (1) bringing it all together and (2) selling consumers on one great leap forwards. That's where Apple beats the likes of Sony: Not in incremental improvements but in creating new product categories and marketing them so that 100m+ consumers want one on launch day.
I did get a chuckle at that, like the running joke about how a monad is “just a monoid in the category of endofunctors”. To be fair, you could delete the “R^3” part and the explanation can still be understood.
I never managed to actually fix it. Maybe the links in the sibling comment can be of help there. But I feel like it became less of a nuisance after Monterey. Nowadays, it seems to move my app windows between displays after sleep, but that is resolved by applying the window layout snapshot from Moom.

My exact script seems to be gone — goes to show that I've not needed it for a while now — but the gist of my workaround was:

• I set up my display arrangement the way I wanted,

• followed the instructions in the displayplacer repo to work out a command to reproduce the desired arrangement,

• put the displayplacer command and the AppleSript call to Moom in the same shell script, with a short sleep between the two,

• and created an Alfred action to make it a tiny bit more convenient for myself.

The display arrangement would get out of sorts, but getting it back to my liking was just an Alfred action away.

You don't have to use Alfred or Moom specifically, those are just the convenience utilities I prefer.

For SOWs, I find that it helps to keep them very explicit about the larger goals and the "why" of the project, but vague on details, and then enter into an agreement where the customer pays you to keep scope at a level where the larger goal and "why" can be accomplished within budget, not into an agreement where the customer controls the scope and you just balloon the budget if they increase it.
Since the results of each operation can be manually annotated (helpful, not helpful) maybe the intention of this project is more to use the data as a human feedback loop? Therefore such fine-grained data is of course better.

Other than that, it might also be useful for the user when either of both operations is not good enough yet and error propagation might be worse than human correction between the two.
