Had to start researching this when a family member was recently diagnosed.

Parkinson's has many forms and many causes.
There's a big divide between Parkinson's _disease_ (idiopathic Parkinson's) and Parkinsonism from a variety of sources - stroke, drug-induced, and so on.
There are also other conditions, like progressive supranuclear palsy, that are considered either to masquerade as Parkinsonism or to constitute another cause of Parkinsonism.

Recommended treatments differ by the root cause of the symptoms. Some of the treatments that are recommended for one form may be contraindicated for other forms, or for different stages. For example, the recommended dopamine agonists are also the primary cause of Parkinson's hallucinations, so you have to trade back some strength and mobility if those start.

Something like 80% of Parkinsonism derives from idiopathic Parkinson's Disease.

Overall, it feels like we're really just getting started on these conditions. For decades, it's been thought to be primarily a motor disorder, but it turns out that there are scads of cognitive symptoms that develop years earlier than motor symptoms.

All the steps could be performed using a VPS node with a web server running on it. SSH port forwarding is doing the heavy lifting. What advantage is there to pinggy over a web server running on a VM or dedicated server?
Performancewise java actually isn't bad. In the middle nineties, java would feel slow compared to e.g. C, but we've come a long way since. Some basic tricks are sticking to fixed arrays, and avoiding angering the garbage collector by repeatedly allocating and deallocating stuff.
Dave's garage in recent years did an involved 'which languages are fastest' benchmark, where java was, I think, number 5? It was beaten by Zig, Rust, C and C++, and the numbers of java and C++ were quite similar.
(Of course such a test is not generally valid, anything can be optimized to be 'the fastest ever', if there are no limitations on what goes. In that test, they used a prime number sieve).

Usually, Minecraft is sped up by using more clever algorithms(OptiFine), not switching to different languages.

For how Minecraft has performed, in every sense (including on hand-me-down laptops of 6-year olds), java has served well.
Of course, using C or C++ might have sped it up by a factor of x2-x5, but it has not been a pain point, to my knowledge.
I have one (Dandetiger actually), but it will probably never run as the drive heads weren't parked when I got it.

The delta is tens of trillions of dollars. By no means insurmountable. But you don't want that changeover happening unexpectedly in a crisis.
Defining expected failure states is good, because it allows you to distinguish expected failures from unexpected ones. What it doesn’t allow you to do is re-cast failures as successes, which is the spin that the author identifies.
There doesn’t have to be a rule against cutesy mascots for the Krita splash to be just a little bit weird. I don’t have pictures of any women not in my family, especially young girls, on my desk, and people around me would consider it weird if I did, and I would consider it a little weird if they did. True, the switch doesn’t prevent female anime mascots from popping up elsewhere, yet somehow that’s not a problem I’ve ever had, is it common for you?

* edit I don’t know or understand why this is being downvoted, but to make the point slightly more clearly, Krita’s splash screens are only slightly unprofessional, and they are are slightly unprofessional for exactly the same reason that using the Lena image in computer vision is now considered slightly unprofessional. People are free to disagree, but it’s a fact that some people don’t love it, and that’s all that’s needed to make it “semi” inappropriate for work. It’s nothing obscene, nothing in your face, it’s just slightly suggestive in a way that not everyone wants at work.
That's right, you don't need a GPU to host a server. In fact, I hosted my server using a 4GB ram raspberry pi on linux, supporting 6 concurrent players at one point without a hitch. The actual server binary only ever had access to about ~2 Gigs of ram at any one time.

Yes, I am an unabashed 'pierat'. I've talked about that elsewhere in comments. And it's because I've been screwed time and again is why I'm solidly in the pro-piracy camp. I've paid enough. And buying legitimately means you're now subjected to buying rentals classified as 'purchase'.

Now as for shoplifting, I did not advocate it. I said I found it funny that shoplifting is being multiplied in direct proportion to the greed of the companies (getting rid of cashiers and putting in you-scan devices). Corporate greed is *enabling* customer greed.

When I worked "shit jobs" (read: box stores at 9$/hr), I didn't give one shit if I saw someone steal. My job was to stock shit. I wasn't in LP nor did I want to be. And if someone was stealing, not my goods, not my problem. And not worth bodily injury.

I didn't encourage it, but nor did I attempt to stop it. And then there's classes of shoplifting that I would completely look the other way (baby formula, diapers, baby food, etc). If you're that bad off attempting to steal that, I never saw even if I'm right there.

And yeah, it IS depressing when we talk about humans doing stuff to survive. And this is predominantly about petty theft for food. But talking about how big business intentionally rose all prices for the pandemic: well, business is just business. And the poor pay even more.

Show HN: I built an open-source alternative to TypeForm [MIT]
An open-source, headless, API-first platform that empowers developers and product teams to create and optimize custom in-app user flows, such as new user onboarding wizards.

Tutim library supports multi-step forms, conditional branching, custom validation, l10n, and more – all through a JSON schema and unlimited flexibility through code.

Beta release on GitHub (star us!): https://github.com/tutim-io/tutim.

Why it's better than other form builders or open-source libraries?

- Flexible: Seamlessly integrate Tutim with your design system components, APIs, and your backend.

- Developer-centric: With an API-first approach, Tutim easily integrates with your existing stack.

- Collaboration Made Easy: Reducing the development workload and enhancing user flow creation and conversion optimization by non-devs.

Main website: https://tutim.io

I'm eager to hear your feedback and thoughts on Tutim. Give it a try and let's work together to build better user experiences!
Yes, but others could do the same and will have to do the same if they want to get in on the business. It is not some insurmountable problem if Sony, Google, or Amazon wanted to get serious about cloud gaming. Microsoft is making the investment. It might not pay off. You can’t say something might be a monopoly one day. That is ludicrous, anything COULD be a monopoly one day.

Advantage of pinggy (entering one command in the terminal) over first renting a VPS node followed by configuring a webserver there, followed by configuring the domain and firewalls, followed by the ssh port forwarding is simplicity. Pinggy is just a quick way of hosting and testing some services.
How about a split mech like Mister Barroco? Easy to find in online shops. It splits and you can have a trackball in the middle.
I suppose another interpretation could be that 'Inari Dimit' is the timid Iranian woman, though I find no evidence online supporting that 'Dimit' is an extant surname, let alone a Persian one. On the other hand though, Inari is so timid that it's hardly surprising that there's no sign of her extremely rare surname.
Show HN: ChatGPT Powered Sous Chef
Hi everyone,

I love seeing all of the projects coming out built with the ChatGPT APIs. I figured it was time to share mine.

I recently added ChatGPT to our iOS cooking app ClipDish. It's like having a cooking instructor right with you in the kitchen.

I'm still experimenting with it and I'm interested in seeing how people use it. Some of the things that I think it works great for.

Describing cooking techniques.

Converting between units of measurements

Ingredient substitutions (which is great when you're grocery shopping and can't find a specific ingredient)

cocktail recipes

It can provide recipes too but I'm trying to figure out a better UI for displaying longer content.

There is basic Siri integration too but that still needs some refinement.

I agree with the author and would more specifically lean into the risk of LLMs continuing on the dark pattern algorithms replete throughout social media platforms. Some people are still being manipulated by the simple algorithms but I can envision certain groups frothing at the mouth to utilize something more powerful and believable that can mimic human characteristics. Given the lack of auditable transactions companies will just point at the LLM instead of accepting responsibility when things go sideways. I think the legal fallout will be entertaining at very least.

To be clear I am not saying LLM's should not be utilized. Rather they are just not mature nor are they production ready. By production ready I mean they need a "debug last transaction" that gives anyone all data sources and what algo was used to reach the conclusion along with any human tuning involved. I fully expect future legal cases to demand this capability and that it be available to everyone.

It's just getting started [1] I expect these cases to evolve rapidly.

No one is preventing companies from building platforms that are non-anonymous.

What you argue for is that the government requires them and that society marginalises those who don't use them. And that sounds a lot like your core belief is that a big brother knows best and should control the other kids.

And no, this is not about the government making digital auth easier. I am from europa, i have en eID card with a government issued private key. No one cares, unless there is regulation enforcing it. The demand to link social media to government issued identity is pretty much only coming from the siloviki, the law-and-order types, who talk accountability but want control.
I can't speculate on how AI (which type?) will affect our societies, but to counter balance what is generally said about AI (that it will cause major "disruptions" in jobs and economies), I like what Chomsky has to say about it [1] (In a nutshell, according to him, the dangers of "chatbots" [sic] is not that they will take jobs, but that people will take them seriously)

> I don't see how chess has become more social. It's always been a very social game.

My impression of high-level chess is that the games are >1 hour, and the participants don't talk to each other, or anyone else.

In contrast, you watch a chess streamer on Twitch? They'll be talking constantly - as well as playing much shorter games.

So I can see why someone who hasn't experienced a chess club in person might identify the latter as more social.
I love what you’ve done! We have less property but made and planted lots of beds with a flower/native/perennial slant. We still have lawn in the areas that are sometimes for play. We also have less clear “paths,” but they’re becoming evident the more we do outside. Thinking in terms of paths is where I’d encourage folks to start. If short grass is meant for easy access/play, observe which stretches of grass really get used for that. The rest could simply be left to go wild.

If I remember right, the current Princes of Liechtenstein basically bought the current country under a similar concept.

The original Liechtenstein was a castle in Austria. The family shopped around for some land that was held directly from the Holy Roman Emperor, rather than through some intermediate feudal lord, and bought it. That gave them statehood within the Holy Roman Empire, and raised the head of the house to the status of Prince.

They didn't even visit the current Liechtenstein for many years -- it was basically a flag of convenience.
My terminal tabs get titles that I can see. My terminal tab shortcuts are consistent with other apps like browsers. I have workflows that depend on me creating a new tab with a bunch of envvars set and having those envvars replicated to any pane/split I create within that tab.

I use tabbed layout for grouping some things in i3/sway/hyprland like chat apps. It works well but those are things I just open once and don't think about again. Terminals are opened and closed constantly and I don't want to have to think about, or fix, new window positioning. A new tab in the existing window is going to be exactly where I expect it to be and have no impact on the positioning of any other window.
