Psychodynamic psychotherapy is a slightly less intense of psychoanalysis, but based on the same theories.

It is totally evidence based and has efficacy comparable to or greater than CBT and other behavioural therapies.
Not sure about interesting, but I wrote a cli tool to apply boolean set operations on lines of text, so e.g. I can get the intersection of the lines in three different files, or all lines piped into stdin that do not appear in a certain file, or merge the lines from multiple files without duplicates.
I made it because this specific task came up repeatedly in my bash scripting but solving it in bash is ugly and really, really slow.

And right now I am working on my own modal text editor which might never be used by anyone else. Just for fun and to see whether some Vim features could be improved or done in other interesting ways. tl;dr so far: Vim does things really damn well, sometimes to a point you don't even think about it because it simply never fails. That said I did manage to finally solve a tiny issue with the keybinding system that always bugged me, resulting in support for smooth text macros as a side effect.
Not in this case, it seems. At the end, the author mentions that the original image was never supposed to be taken very seriously. It was a coarse (my interpretation) model for teaching medical students.
What do you imagine that would look like?
Trying to figure this out myself. So cache line is 64 bytes. Ignoring pointers you can fit eight 8bit data/key values, or sixteen 4bit data/key values. Pointers are entirely implicit (thx user below)

This would save you 3 or 4 memory reads respectively.

The odds of this strategy helping past the first few layers seems unlikely. So for 100k elements binary tree, this should be a 21% or 31% performance improvement respectively. That’s 17 vs 14 and 17 vs 13 reads.

And this would not help much for string data values unless the strings are at most 8 characters long :-)

This same thinking can be used to optimize database queries. Given several table and index layouts how many 8kb disk reads will be needed in each case. Wish I could get a job doing that kind of design work!
This sounds great. It is $1200 though, is the rechargeable battery for these types of things typically replaceable?

Yeah. As someone who grew up around the sea and loves Homer I always loved this description and it never seemed remotely strange to me. If you've ever seen the sea as the sun rises or sets it can seem almost syrupy and dark like a Burgundy even on a clear day. Likewise in cloudy days or during storms it can get very dark also.

And as you point out they would have been looking at wine in a cup (without transparent sides) so it would have just looked dark most of the time rather than particularly red.
> Entering the password on the student’s BYOD is pretty stupid

I wouldn't say it was stupid of the teacher to enter the password, given the amount of technical expertise that elementary school teachers can be expected to possess.

The blame should probably go to the person who set up the exception-granting system, who should have used a system that doesn't involve authenticating on a non-trusted device.
The maritime industry has always been at the forefront of global trade and commerce. As the world becomes more interconnected and businesses seek to expand their reach, shipping has become a crucial component of the global economy. The shipping industry is also constantly evolving, driven by technological advancements, changing market dynamics, and shifting consumer behaviors. In this blog post, we will explore some of the trends and predictions that are expected to shape the future of shipping in the next decade.
When I was 15 years old and my sister was 4 or 5 years old, I wrote a pascal program that showed a big letter on a screen when my sister pressed such letter on a keyboard.

She had fun pressing letters on a keyboard and then seeing them on the screen - possibly learning alphabet and keyboard layout at the same time :)

Here's another test I'd like to run in a few years: Record both conversations, without revealing which is human, and ask strangers which they would prefer to continue talking to.

Honestly, I dream up some pretty wildly incorrect stuff when taking a stab at solving unknown problems. There's something about the way LLMs are vaguely starting to do 'something that feels like this' that strikes a chord with me. Imagination and creativity in the face of the unknown is something I value.

Maybe I don't have to care if you're made of meat, or possess a 'real' mind? Not a question I ever expected to seriously ask myself.
I can understand it being weird, but when you get used to it, it's really really handy, for instance to manage user rights. I've read somewhere that actually, pg schemas compares more with mysql database, postgresql databases being an additional level wrapping it.

The big advantage of the Eytzinger layout actually comes into play when your binary search isn't branch-free.

In that case, the CPU will speculate loads reasonably far ahead, and because both choices tend to be in the same cacheline, this prefetch is rarely wasted.

In other words, the big win isn't about reducing the number of cacheline fetched, it's about reducing the effective latency of those fetches.

That said, using a similar layout with higher fan-out and SIMD ops doesn't benefit from this effect and is probably still better.

> ...Emscripten which reimplements parts of popular libraries like SDL

AFAIK those library headers are just historical artifacts from a time when those library didn't have official Emscripten ports, and which today are only reluctantly maintained if at all.

Emscripten's web API wrappers make a lot of sense though, and the other unique feature is the 'inline Javascript' support (so you don't need to maintain the Javascript glue code in separate .js source files).
Oooooh :)

Thanks!
Hey, godspeed to you and your health issues.

Concerning the video/custom mobile-based keyboard: If interested you could look at how kde-connect implements the remote pointer control you mention at the end of the video. kde-connect is also available for macOS, though not fully supported (per https://github.com/KDE/kdeconnect-kde) and the last macOS builds seem to fail (https://binary-factory.kde.org/view/MacOS/job/kdeconnect-kde...). But i can attest that it works great on Ubuntu via GSConnect with Android.
I'm not so sure about that. Public property is a category of property assigned typically to a defined community. For example, citizens of Russia don't have the rights to use at least some of the public property means of USA and so on.
Depending on your circumstances, yes.
But also the comic as you remembered it has a different moral from the actual comic, and would be very insulting to apply to non-paying dropbox users.

It's okay for a free service to change how they operate with a take-it-or-leave-it offer. It is not okay for a free service to invade your privacy without permission.

Additionally, all users should be able to trust Dropbox just as much as the paying users.
YouTube shows up everywhere, and unless you dns block it, there’s always some way to get sucked into the rabbit hole. Google.com, DuckDuckGo, all the search engines make it possible to watch YouTube without it showing up as site:YouTube in parental controls.

Yes, there are useful videos, and that’s why it’s not hard blocked.

But the lure and attention tuning of Minecraft videos, other gaming vids, and whatever else is at the top of the list now is just too strong.

(Btw, assume for these purposes that restrictions at some level are necessary, and that any response with “just” in it probably has been considered and doesn’t work)

A few years ago I traded cryptocurrency extensively. I eventually ended up with a tax nightmare, needing to account for thousands of trades across several exchanges. After months of talking with my accountant and tax office, I eventually built https://github.com/dleber/capitalg

It was still a lot of work aggregating trade histories from various exchanges into a standardized schema, but I took some comfort in understanding the process. I also avoided the need to share exchange API keys and trading data with 3rd party accounting tools.

If you discover any bugs, please don't tell the tax authorities.

I'm not sure what "learn by heart" and "index" mean in this context. Does anyone actually have the ability to control whether they memorize something versus just "indexing" it? How would we measure "efficiency" of learning?

Well, yes. In 2018 I created a datasource plugin for ClickHouse [1], and back then it was just a matter of creating a PR to Grafana's repo.
Now, we created a plugin (also open source) for VictoriaMetrics [2], and the signing fee has become a concern. Worth to mention that, as I understand, it is an annual fee.

I totally understand that, as a marketplace owner, Grafana Labs has all the rights to decide what to do with it. But it indeed looks like a roadblock for 3rd party development.

Imagine it's 30 years ago. You and your friends have a band. You put on shows regionally, sometimes hundreds or even a thousand people attend. You have dozens of regular fans who go to all your events, they make and share covers of your music and fan art.

That isn't millions of views. It's tens of thousands. On youtube that's nothing. But 30 years ago you'd feel it was a great accomplishment, and if it was all you achieved you could be happy with that.

As is has become more possible for a few of the most broadly appealing and unchallenged works to reach millions of people the goalpost has moved.

Plenty of valuable content will never reach millions of viewers-- the appeal is too niche. It's a worthwhile contribution to the world none the less, but it isn't compensated as such on youtube.
I don’t think you understand the comic or you overlooked the thread above. It’s ironic because calling something as basic as “machinery” inherently evil has an inherently evil implication, which is that 95% of the population would need to die.

This is nothing like “you participate, how curious”. This is “I’m against literally every piece of technology required to feed any non-negligible portion of the humans on earth”.

> I'm not sure why anyone would use big tech's product placement AI when there are marginally worse options available that aren't mind killers.

You can ask the same question about social media or any Big Tech product today. The answer is somewhere between convenience, a better product, and inertia ("everyone else uses it", etc.).

If Google comes up with an AI that integrates with Gmail, Docs, Drive, Search, and all their other products, and leverages the amount of information they already know about you, then they can provide a much better UX than any competitor could.

I don't doubt there will be OSS competitors that don't do any mind manipulation to get users to purchase something, but most users won't use them. Just like we have sane alternatives to all Big Tech products today, and they're mostly only used by a niche group of technical users.
Actually I got the dates a bit wrong - according to Wikipedia they started writing Qt in 1991. Also that was a full time commercial project. As far as I know all of the Rust GUIs except Slint are hobby projects.

Finally, modern GUIs are way more complex than they were back then - especially when it comes to graphics APIs and text handling.

So I still think it's too early to say Rust has failed when it comes to GUIs.
I hooked up my old (~25y) stereo to an RPi via AUX in. The RPi has MPD and a pulseaudio sink to play audio. And it can be controlled via Home Assistant.

But the feature I like most is that it turns on/off the stereo via an infrared LED. It detects sound and silence on the pulse output and sends the proper IR command. A small thing, but it still makes me happy whenever it does its work in the background.
The thing is - who is going to pay for data on the SIM? Currently OEMs want to throw the bill on the customer, while customer does not understand why he should pick up the bill, when he already has internet in the phone.

Ask HN: What are you opinions on bad posts in your blog?
I started blogging a while ago, but all my contents are mid at best. How do you level up? There is constant pressure within me to produce but I can't write anything impressive that can help other people. All the things I do rely on collective knowledge of the common, hence I will not be adding anything new on the table. This sabotages my self confidence.

Are you in similar situation too? I am in that 90% of the internet where everything is crap.
I first fast read through the topic to learn to kind of get the pillars and terminology down. And then I deepen the topic I need to know.
My reasoning is that first skimming though all topics helps me to get the idea which toolings and concepts I can use as the best/optimal solution for a particular problem I want to solve instead of only seeing parts of the concepts and using only the parts to solve the problem at hand.

Either approach boils down to apply the concepts and learn them by applying the concepts.
You could just distinguish my 2 approaches that I prefer to lean on reading more beforehand and not jumping straight to solving the problem
Most useful thing?

Honestly, a lamp that uses a 1W red LED behind a big diffuser. It uses PWM in the MHz range for dimming (so definitely no flicker), and big physical controls. My wife and I both get migraines and being able to set very dim red light seems to be better than sitting in complete darkness. I have insufficient data to tell if this is a real effect, unique to us, or placebo.

Code is in AVR assembly, because that's easiest for me. Sometimes I feel silly that after all these years working with technology, this is the most useful thing I've managed to build for myself. Hey, it's not nothing though :)
This is the benefit. Languages like Clojure have excellent support for manipulating maps and I'd wager that something like 40-60% of Clojure code is similar-looking map manipulation stuff for this very reason.

If you need that validation, you just validate the map? You can use established methods like Malli or Clojure Spec for this. If you need to use a record with a fixed schema, just use a record instead of map. In Clojure, you can use most of the map functions for records too.

Humans are dangerous. ChatGPT is not, it's just a tool and in the same class of danger as python. The public is falling for a literal doomsday cult ( https://archive.is/eqZx2 ), and OpenAI has foolishly played a bit of both sides as an excuse for their lack of openness and potentially a desire to use state power to build a competitive moat.

In spite of the name, OpenAI isn't open, it's just a business. There were some lofty initial goals but the funding for those ran out. But that doesn't mean it doesn't have a right to exist. People can make closed stuff.

Burdensome and unrealistic requirements will hurt smaller and more open efforts even more than it will hurt mega players, since the mega players can afford to jump through hoops and keep regulators at bay with a wall of attorneys.
I forget. But just search for "kit FM transmitter". I'd fully intended to build a "proper" transmitter, and was keenly disappointed that you could just buy a cheap single-chip board.
