> The brand one slow releases very evenly while the generic just slams me with the calm, focused joy followed by a significant emotional low for hours.

Prolonged-release of an orally drug taken in pill form is a "special feature", it's the difference between regular Adderall and Adderall XR.

There are patented techniques involved to make it work like that, generica manufacturers probably don't have access to those/leave it out to save manufacturing costs.

You can try taking the generica in smaller dosages, to compensate for their lack of prolonged-release, as the symptoms you describe sound like you are overdosing by taking too much in too short of a time.

Concerta doesn't need such manual dosage management, as it also has prolonged-release just like Adderall XR.
Depositors who hold more than 250k in checking? The probably should be expected to be sophisticated capital managers rather than kept on safety wheels.

The alternative is scarier: infinite deposit insurance exposes government to larger and larger defaults requiring them to regulate banks down to which industries and loans they can work with or not.
Creating all but the most basic of forms with plain html/css/js is loaded with footguns too. Add in conditional fields, multi-page flows, loading and error states, etc then it becomes clear why solutions like React were created and why they have become so popular.

Beats me, but JP Morgan Chase has paused withdrawals for me too. They say "You have reached your daily $5000 ATM withdrawal limit" and "Bank hours are 9 AM to 5 PM Monday through Friday".

"Trust us, you can withdraw your money! Or don't trust us! It doesn't matter because you have no choice but to look at your bank balance until we deem it advantageous to allow you to withdraw to real money!"

From the places I've worked, drip coffee is essentially free, but the cup it's served in .. less so.

Even for "speciality coffee" it went lid, cup, sleeve, milk, (syrup,) coffee.
Within JPM Chase, the "JP Morgan" or "JP Morgan Private Bank" brand is used for (V)HNWI banking and the "Chase" brand is for retail (although Chase does have a Chase Private Client arm for almost-HNWIs). Due to the nature of catering to VHNWIs, "JP Morgan" of course offers wealth management services.

Morgan Stanley is a completely different company with no (current) ties to JPMC.

The reason JPMC and M-S share the name "Morgan" is because the investment and retail sides of the bank were split during the Great Depression due to Glass-Steagall, almost 100 years ago.
Thanks for explaining — very helpful!
It is crucial because new loans generate growth and economic activity. The economy would seize up and enter a deep recession if regular savers stashed their money in 100% reserve ratio bank. (Many would if there was no government-backed deposit insurance for regular-sized amounts.)

I think the reason such institutions don't exist is that they are very unprofitable compared to regular banks and would be expensive to keep deposits in them.
> For example Apple can save ProRaw format which DOES include the postprocess magickery, but uncompressed and having more detail for post. BUT, it also provides apps with true RAW, which is true (or very close to true) raw.

Thank you for that detail. IMO, that makes "ProRAW" a really unfortunate naming decision on Apple's part. And I think you're saying that if you shoot in RAW with, say, Halide, the result will be an actual RAW (pre-demosaic) file in DNG format.

This it a little tangental but a lot of the times when I see a title that says "An X of One's Own" and then see the content I wonder if it relates at all to Virginia Woolf's A Room of One's Own.

For example I once read an Ikea blog post titled "A Storage Space of One's Own", and the content of the post was nothing at all to do with how women can achieve the same things as men if they are allowed the space to do so, the blog post was about Ikea's top five storage units.

This was one was suspect until the end, and then I think it wraps up quite nicely. All people should be allowed to flourish. And we should take that positive note away from it.

Wouldn't we expect a lot of orgs to suddenly start caring if they have more than $250k in their accounts and start spreading it out over the next week, or removing it from banks entirely and putting into treasuries or other assets?

Yet overall, this is not only a tech problem, but a compliance / regulatory problem that includes a time differential of sometimes many years. Also, I am not saying its impossible. Mainly because I was the one pushing this type of innovation for a long time and faced headwinds from Credit Operations for many years. Quality prevailed.

One comment on the SerpAPI and compliance
tools = load_tools(["serpapi", "llm-math"], llm=llm)

With this innocuously looking line one integrates Google Search API (through SERPAPI) into the credit approval flow. I.e., you have no control where your customer data might end up with.

And second, not at all. E4X existed in the 2000s and was widely implemented in Firefox (then the biggest modern browser) and Flash (the other de facto runtime). E4X let you embed XML directly in JS and you basically were able to build React-style templating without the preprocesor that React requires.

So basically the world has been working on something like React for 2 decades. React just is so far the best version of SGML in code.

That's true, but it works with smaller pieces of code already. You can paste a function into ChatGPT and it will attempt to explain how the code works. Maybe there are enough existing explanations of high-level concepts on the internet for it to work, if it just has the larger codebase in its training data as well. At this point I am wary of making predictions about what this type of AI is able to do. :)
I think you're right. They did not understand the needs of their customers (companies) that contributed the bulk of their deposits.

They were not assessing the risks and changes occurring in the market that could affect the behavior of their primary customer base.

I read they went 8 months without someone in charge of risk management, so it appears this is completely an own goal.
Specifically in AI there is huge room for improvement with things like optical computing. AI processing doesn't need to be completely deterministic, as shown by the fact that we are quantizing llama down to 4 bit without too much of a drop in performance. Once you drop that requirement you open the door to using much, much more efficient analog circuits. How do I invest in optical computing...

How often do you casually dispense medical advice to strangers? Especially without qualifying yourself as a SME expert (or non-expert), or at the very least providing reference sources or other supporting documentation?

Edit: @djmips: Are you familiar with the differences between medical and non-medical advice? The potential repercussions of you following my potentially bad advice on programming are vastly different from the possible fallout from encouraging someone to mess with their medication dosing. The responsible thing to do is refrain, because some people are on a very specific regimen for good reasons. In a medical context, sharing one's own experience (and qualifying it as such) is often appreciated, however this is not how I would characterize the structure of the parent comment.

I hope this helps, I only wish the best for you and others.

Tell HN: You need an efficent mouse setup with mapped mouse button actions
The majority of my time "developing" is actually spent in a web browser skimming through documentation, googling for stuff, browsing through pages and going back and forth in history.

For about a decade now I've been using a series of mice with two mappable buttons on each side set up in the following way:

Left side: Forward and Back

Right side: Page Up and Page Down

I have found this to be incredibly effective. Bonus: It also works really well in VS Code, Spotify and other Electron-like apps.

You need a mouse with at least two buttons on each side. Advanced mice are called gaming mice nowadays. They come in all shapes. At the moment I'm using an old wired Razer Lancehead. Logitech has at least one current model with two mappable buttons on each side. Razer Viper 8KHz (sic) is another one.
The size of the tribe is critical.. i believe one of the reasons the US has lasted for so long is the distributed nature of power. I also believe one of the major issues we face today is we continue to consolidate that power into a central federal government with unlimited power.

React and Node are not the choices if you want to prototype quickly.

A full-stack Rails-inspired framework that makes use of DSLs, code generators, db migrations and has validations that work from the db, through to the forms in frontend templates are the table stakes for rapid prototyping. Rails itself, Phoenix or Laravel are the options I’d consider. All three have great communities and a history of success getting more done with fewer devs than would be possible with separated front and back-end JS SPAs.
I have yet to read about anyone discussing their hedging strategy regarding the bonds. Theoretically, I couldn't imagine that risk control doesn't ring a bell if a bank has a large one side exposure to anything, even treasury bonds. I think maybe reading the financial reports can reveal more as I expect to read about credit derivatives.
> to libertarians, and anarchists it is the inverse that is the problem. Government creeping and corrupting private enterprise.

> Corruption is a 2 way street here, government can be corrupted by private enterprise, but a private enterprise can be corrupted by government as well

I have yet to see any coherent argument or advice that supports the widespread corruption of private enterprise by government in the U.S. The U.S. is an oligarchy. Is the claim that the government got us here by "corrupting" private corporations and enterprises? Where is the evidence and argument for that?
The bank doesn’t need to perform those functions like debit and credit cards in this set-up. Transfer funds to a private bank for that. The public bank is just to secure deposits.
I used to think that to achieve human-level intelligence with AI, we need to have human-sized neural network. It was a conservative guess, but seeing where things are going, I now strongly believe we need a lot LESS parameters with AI, because AI is trained from literally nothing (from noise) on our current culture, from the Internet. It has no baggage, it's built from the ground up to be a modern 21st century human. We're not, we train decades to become ones. And struggle with it. Our genes are mostly tuned for our environment from thousands of years ago.

A human brain carries a lot more baggage with it. Long story short, our biological brain hardware is much superior to current AI hardware, but our biological brain software (where we learn the culture that surrounds us) is much inferior to current AI machine learning. GPT-3 trained 175B on basically the whole internet in 15 days. That's insane. And now there are rumors that ChatGPT is executed on an optimized subset of this 175B model, which may be a bit more than 1/10 that size.

I think going forward we'll see 20-30B parameter models perform much better than an average human in typical tasks. Especially after we evolve the topology of an AI to not be a straight directed acyclic graph, as it is now, but allow structures to loop internally, to invoke other structures with input (as subroutines) and so on.

And also there's new hybrid analog/digital hardware in the pipeline, which makes AI execution 100 times more energy efficient and compact. So above-human level AI on your phone is on the horizon, I'd say.

We're only getting started.
I think it’s important to be pragmatic about the actual value of your work. Quite often it’s zero. So if you get enjoyment, for any reason, out of supplying data to a massive company for free, then that’s a win.

> In fact, I used gaussian blur to redact some private information

Absolutely never do that. I honestly don't understand why people still do, given that it's obvious that low levels of blur can be reversed why even risk guessing until what point someone might be able to recover anything? Just censor it, draw over it with an opaque tool, and save it in a format that won't store layers or undo history or something (the riskiest format being pdf).

If you don't like how that looks, the alternative is to replace the information and then blur it. They can unblur but will find an easter egg at best.

Personally, I censor instead of blurring a replacement, but I balance between low contrast and not hiding the fact that information was removed. A stark contrast distracts and looks ugly. E.g., for black text on a white background, I'd pick a light/medium gray (around the average black level of the original text, basically).
I'm a fairly seasoned react developer and I've been thinking about this debate that have been going on lately. Meanwhile I'm writing a fairly involved front end app in vanilla JavaScript and a bit of jQuery. It's a blast from the past for me.

I went into this period of debate with what I feel is an open mind. Open to the possibility that react really is overrated and more trouble than it's worth.

But after writing this app I'm very well reminded of why I was so enthusiastic about react way back when. Handling state updates in vanilla JavaScript is quite messy.

Then again, react is far from a perfect solution to the problem. It adds about as much complications as it takes away.

I hope we can find better solutions. But I'm not sure how to move forward when it seems so hard to agree on what the problem is.
Yep you're right, bad acronyms will forever confuse me.
Yes, I expect so, but it's odd I can't seem to find it with Google if it has crawled it...
