Like most mental health issues they don’t generally discuss the specific diagnosis. But reading in this article and others they discuss manic behavior as well as periods of deep depression. That’s effectively bipolar. The disorder comes about when the mania and depression results in dysfunction, such as addiction. The narcissism comes about because of the intense self interest in both the manic phase and the depressive phase. But I’ve not found a specific diagnosis disclosure anywhere - just as I said explicit discussion of mania and depression.

Musk has disclosed specifically he is bipolar. It’s a better explanation of his behavior than autism.

The issue is that people with bipolar it’s almost diagnostic they refuse or don’t comply with treatment even when acknowledging their disorder. When you are wealthy you can get away with that, and people around you will even feed your mania to their own benefit.

+1 for San Diego. It's small enough you can be familiar with most of the neighborhoods and still big enough there's always an interesting event or new restaurant to check out. Apple has expansion plans in the region. The military/larger federal government presence is sort of nice, I sense that plus the large tourism numbers helps keep SD away from the extreme end of California politics.

The weather is a huge plus, and I anticipate the city will handle global warming a little better than other regions. The county has made a lot of good decisions with water management too, from keeping the reservoirs full to supplying almost 10% of the water supply from a desal plant.

I disagree that the coastline is the only "nice" place to get a house, the ocean is pretty accessible from most parts of the city due to the highway designs.

Of course, there's issues with homelessness, retail theft, poor public transit, expensive housing. But it all seems a little more tame to me than the same issues in LA/SF/Seattle.
There is a lot to debate. I don't agree with this "addiction" argument at all. My siblings (much younger, school age) don't have social media by their own volition. Apparently they're immune to this addiction - or perhaps it's not really addiction, but something different.

Taking away their phones because others can't handle themselves is wrong.

So yeah, a lot to debate.
They also have things like national grocery chains!
that much dark stuff going through your kidneys to become clear can't be good.

Sorry for your experience. In my opinion those people were using chopstick technique as a vehicle for their bullying. Take the chopsticks out of the equation and they are probably doing some other form of gatekeeping.

But you are not paying $5/month. That’s a gimmick. You are pre-paying a full year’s worth. It’s like paying (almost) full price but for only a year’s worth of use.

For Adobe, at least, the actual monthly rate is way higher.
I don't mind you calling your way superior. I'm sure it is superior for you and the food you eat. But not elaborating adds nothing to the conversation.

For me, chopsticks are superior in picking up crisps. No greasy fingers, as GP noted. You can't stab them with a fork; they're prone to falling off a spoon, whereas chopsticks can grip them from both sides.
Random story: My wife's Korean family always comment on how I'm better at using chopsticks then them, it's something that always seems to come up. In fact one of the first things my wife proudly said to my in-laws when we first met was "look he's so much better at chopsticks than us" - I just graciously declined the compliment, insisted it's not true etc and moved on, but always makes me chuckle at bit and I've never asked why they think that for fear of appearing rude (or that they're being polite because I'm white).

Thing is... I find Korean chopstick style way easier to use than Chinese. I learned to use chopsticks on Chinese sticks + Lateral Chick held at the very very top of the sticks, these days I mostly use standard, and adjusting to Korean chopsticks from Chinese is almost like moving from driving stick to auto.

I guess the sticks matter as much as a grip. :)
I second that. It feels like an abacus after a while
As a Korean, I can confirm that chopsticks serve as a great germ distributor. Their ends go into your mouth and then end up poking everything else on the table. :)
We get annual reports in the Bay Area (Bear Gulch reservoir). One time we had an issue and they came out and did testing on our specific taps. We tried again more recently and they seem to have retired the service.
At least he can get another $30M c-level job elsewhere. Since the size of the pool of people at his level is small, bigger and better opportunities exist elsewhere. That’s what executive hunters do these days: pedigree, but not the results.
Considering that VC funded projects tend to attract "career oriented" developers that have no incentive other than money or prestige, i'd say that could be a good thing.
What studios/projects have they cancelled? The only two I can think of are that they stopped making Steam Controllers and Steam Link became a software solution in the form of "Remote Play" and "Remote Play Together".

Over the last few years they've released the Steam Deck and Valve Index, supporting them with pretty decent software.

The Steam Deck UI improvements have made their way over to "Big Picture Mode" and similar UI changes for the PC client are currently available in the public beta.

> You're going to stop buying on Steam? Yeah right.

Frankly, It's annoying when I can't buy on Steam. Epic spent tens of millions on exclusivity deals to force me to choose between their shitty client or hoping it gets released on Steam in a year or two. The only result is that I have less regard for both Epic and those developers.
Same. We are so, so profoundly not what it feels like we are, to most of us anyway.

I am morbidly curious how people are going to creatively explain away the more challenging insights AI gives us in to what consciousness is.
I just discovered composting using Oyster mushrooms (Pleurotus Ostreatus). It can handle food waste and also human/animal waste too. It colonizes the waste really fast when it's warm. No need for a septic tank.

Yes I have a small hut in the woods, with electricity and Internet via fiber optic cable from a house nearby. There's a waterproof WiFi access point mounted outside the hut on a pole, with a surprisingly long range.

Why wouldn't you? Anyway, I don't think schools with farms in the US regularly harvest poultry or livestock for their students.
The best book clubs I've been in are ones where the members had to pay something to be in it. I think everything should be done to get the people who sign up to actually show up and participate, and part of that equation is usually charging everyone a little bit, especially if the people in the group aren't already friends.
But they'll think you're more effective if they pay you more!
The Clash Between the Jesuits and Traditional Chinese Square-Earth Cosmology
I have a friend who has been a Automotive Engineer for 20 years and we have this conversation all the time. If I were to distill all our conversations down to one take away it would be this: There was a paradigm shift sometime shortly after the Great Recession. Before then, vehicles operated and degraded in expected and manageable ways.

I'm in the vintage camp at the moment. I just replaced the Chrysler ignition system that was in my old 80s Volvo for a Bosch one that came in a later model. That and replacing the timing belt took all of one weekend and $500 (I splurged on some new parts that I didn't technically need to). The next week I drove it cross country and had a blast, somehow having the time of my life despite not having the last 35 years of features that many people can't live without.
You get an upvote for teaching me a new word today, "imprimatur". It looked like a typo.
if i ever become a parent, i wouldnt give my kids a phone until highschool, and even then i would be heavily restricting their ability to use it for anything besides basic communication and browsing - block social media and porn via dns, disallow installing apps without my permission. signal, email, calls, maps, a browser, notes and camera+pictures. thats it. no stupid social media apps, no games, music would be a maybe if they could demonstrate responsibility to stop listening to it when its time to do a task.

fuck phones.
From what I gather by reading and listening to those who left California this is one of reasons why they left/leave but certainly not the only one and often not even the main reason.

As a caucasian who grew up in SE Asia... Lemme tell you, the number of times I was politely but firmly 'corrected' in how to hold chopsticks as a kid (which varied literally from family to family, so there was no way to win this game) is an equal part funny and stressful memory. :D Local parents had Strong Opinions on this!

Phantoms in the Brain is a fascinating book that deals with exactly this topic.
Well, you have 7 letters, but you can also use the black keys for keyboard shortcuts.
It's probably way worse than we can imagine.

Reading/listening to someone like Robert Sapolsky [1] makes me laugh I could have ever hallucinated about such a muddy, not even wrong concept as "free will".

Furthermore, between the brain and, say, the liver there is only a difference of speed/data integrity inasmuch as one cares to look for information processing as basal cognition: neurons firing in the brain, voltage-gated ion channels and gap junctions controlling bioelectrical gradients in the liver, and almost everywhere in the body. Why does only the brain has a "feels like" sensation? The liver may have one as well, but the brain being an autarchic dictator perhaps suppresses the feeling of the liver, it certainly abstracts away the thousands of highly specialized decisions the liver takes each second solving adequately the complex problem space of blood processing. Perhaps Thomas Nagel shouldn't have asked "What Is It Like to Be a Bat?" [2] but what is it like to be a liver.

Honestly this kind of stuff is already boring. It's an extremely simplified explanation, and overall a pretty low effort post. Don't get me wrong, ChatGPT is amazing, and I had it write me some recipes in Plato's voice. But now the novelty has worn off and this is essentially throwaway content. It's not contributing anything to the discussion.
I agree with your points. There is an intersection between free speech and contracts with a company --sometimes it's murky and it's best to avoid a conflict of interest --unless that's what you're looking for.

Let's name some of the most famous pieces of software today:

1. ZFS - a filesystem, but filesystems had been done before

2. Chrome - a browser, but browsers had been done before

3. Excel - a spreadsheet, but spreadsheets had been done before

4. Caddy - a webserver, but webservers had been done before

5. llvm - a compiler, but compliers had been done before

In fact, I'm hard pressed to identify a famous piece of software that is unarguably the best of its class AND is the original one. gcc might come close, but llvm is perfectly usable.

There's something about being alone on the mountaintop, but since the mountain is always there, and you climbed it, does it matter that someone else was there before or after?
Do you have a citation for that number? I'd be somewhat surprised if the median walking distance is actually that high. Walking two miles would take most people 30-50 minutes depending on various factors. Perhaps this reflects my bubble but I live in a relatively walking friendly city and most people I know will look for some other form of transportation if the distance is longer than a mile. 10 miles a day is a good amount of walking. It will take most people 2.5-4 hours depending on fitness and terrain. That is a lot of walking to do every single day and again I'd be surprised if this was the world norm even if Americans are a particularly sedentary outlier.

Personally, I prioritize walking and go for a long recreational walk almost every day. Still, I have only averaged about 6 miles per day over the last three years and I walk far more than anyone I know.

That feels like a loaded phrase. Is it "false confusion" adjacent?
"Even if zoning changes require approval, only the property owner can determine the original zone, and only he can request changes."

I have no idea where you live, but I assure you that in many places the authority have jurisdiction can in fact just change the zoning of property you already own.
There's a lot of people arguing about OSS vs FOSS. opensource.org has a specific definition but this is not universally accepted (there's a lot on this in the wiki page btw). Stallman even wrote about this[0].

If you're passionately arguing and downvoting others that are claiming that ImageBind is in fact OSS then you're also actively demonstrating naivety. Definitions are not always universal and this is an easy to verify example. Instead of just posting another link to opensource.org read their about section[1] and consider why that leads to non-universality. And maybe also consider the words themselves: is the source available? Even if the only correct definition were from opensource.org, I'd expect everyone here to have some understanding why others might be confused since the words imply something different. There's some evidence to the other side's view, so it isn't obscene or idiotic. You don't have to accept the other view, just consider its existence.

Take a step back and consider that your view isn't the only possible one. Maybe we can have more constructive discussions if we do so. We don't need these holy wars, they don't accomplish anything.

Personally I think one shouldn't judge an article based on in which media it was posted first.

There are quite a lot good articles posted in each of the blog sites you mentioned.

Compare it to people saying, it's sold at Walmart (just an example) so it must be bad.
It would be mighty entertaining see Adobe calling Apple out.
If you're really just trying to cover property tax, set aside half your acreage and let a nearby farmer harvest hay. On reasonably productive land, splitting the cash will cover taxes.
It's an interesting consideration how frustrating and dangerous non-tactile interfaces can be in cars, and how versatile they can be when you can give them your full attention.

I had always assumed pro-level DAW users would want lots of knobs and sliders to change as many parameters of the sound as easily and quickly as possible.
But, again, why would you do it in DHTML if you could do it in Swing, which was then (and arguably still is) better suited to apps?

It was absolutely a Big Deal part of table manners when I was a kid, FWIW. SE Asia, southern China, late 70's. FWIW.

Maybe. But I've been buying Apple for over a decade and this is the first year I've considered migrating off the ecosystem. I think AR glasses (not goggles) are going to be the defining hardware tech of the decade and I can see them becoming ubiquitous. If they're planning on releasing the goggles at the rumoured price point ($1500 - $3000) I think people might be tempted to jump ship.
As someone who regularly eats several pounds of broccoli (I love it so much), I can only describe the outcome as a cleanse, of both the colon, and if you survive, the mind.
Depending on your location, it is virtually impossible to get any real metrics.

A few years ago, inspired by some books I've read about nutrition, I tried to get a whole bloodwork done - and then another one after a few weeks of the new nutrition regime. The idea was to have a data-based approach to changing my life.

My doctor was less than helpful ('We only do full bloodwork if there is a medical indication, no I won't take your money'), and medical labs refused to do so because 'they only work with medical practitioners'. Apparently, in Germany, there is no way to get some data on my own goddamn body other than my height and my weight (things I can determine myself).

I would love to have a service where I send in a blood sample / have a blood sample taken, and get back a report, with all the values, on an easy to understand bar graph, with lower and upper bond of 'healthy'.

Startup idea, anyone?
Or maybe the human thought process isn't as sophisticated as we imagined.
branon asks: "Why's Texas have so many criminals willing to use firearms for evil?"

What kind of a question is that? Have you ever heard of a criminal who was willing to use firearms for good? If you were in a "Criminals' Bar" and said what you say above, they would laugh you out of the room! The very definition of a criminal requires that s(he) do evil, their very reputations ride upon how evil/badass they are perceived.

I, for one, am glad to see the broad acceptance of firearms in society. They bring with them a protocol that is commonly known, demands respect (under risk of death) and that encourages the adoption of etiquette (good manners), which is a necessity in a civil society. But while firearms keep our society safe, there is a price to pay. It's a sort of tax on society: you don't want it but it is necessary.

Back to the original question:

FWIW if you're a criminal, you'll get more laughs than money by beating someone with say, a shovel or a rake (as long as you don't overdo it). But you can't make decent money in stand-up comedy these days either. Soooo...

In all seriousness fighting is a physically demanding task, especially if it is necessary to survive each encounter. One seeks a tool that will maximize the harvest at least risk and least effort. The firearm comes immediately to mind. For good reason the Colt .45 revolver was call the "Great Equalizer":

https://thefederalist.com/2020/07/31/the-story-of-how-samuel...

The same Colt .45 revolver was called the "Peacemaker".

Finally, the more people, the more incidents of crime and thus more criminals. Texas is a growing state. For more details on crime growth maybe ask Joe Biden?
That article makes clear these potential risks come from observational studies, not controlled experiments.

And if consumption of diet soda correlates with other things, for example an unhealthier diet in general that the person "compensates" for by only drinking diet soda, then it would show up in an observational study even though there's no cause-and-effect.

But remember, diet soda is 99+% water. Really the only hypothetical problems with diet soda could be 1) artificial sweetener chemicals in the body triggering cancer or other ailments, and 2) artificial sweeteners triggering a glucose-like response triggering weight gain. But studies with rats indicate 1) shouldn't be an issue at anywhere near the concentrations in diet soda, and 2) seems rather far-fetched.
Thailand is extraordinarily developed, along the lines of South Korea. Your experience must be quite dated. The doctors in Thailand are often western trained, but are top of their fields globally. The education system in Thailand is excellent and universal, the economy is vibrant, and the infrastructure is well developed including high speed rail etc.

I had discovered something similar.

I've had some nerve issues after a medication. First, my physicians were in complete denial that it was impossible. Then, I had to push them for tests. This includes Mayo clinic. It wasn't until I learned about neurological diseases and tests myself until I found the tests I needed. Then I had to search for a physician willing to listen.

Ended up finding a neurologist at a University who straight up agreed that due to my history of tests and not coming up with anything he is open to hearing what I think and ordering what I want as long as it is within reason. We ordered autonomic test and QSART(sweat test). My autonomic tests were unremarkable like I suspected but we found issues on the sweat tests confirming my self-diagnosed small fiber neuropathy.

I have then found other people having significant improvements from nerve supporting supplements, ALA, l-carnitine and high dose b1(which is relatively safe).

I also stumbled upon Pirenzepine, I met a chemist online who reversed his neuropathy with Pirenzepine. It is not FDA approved but available in Japan with a good safety profile. I want to try this next.

Later I discovered that there is company which is in phase 3 trials I believe with a cream with the main ingredient being Pirenzepine to treat neuropathy. In one of their studies they discovered that cream seemed to work systemically when it came to healing the nerves.

At this point my physician who is a professor is excited to hear from me. I told him I am debating obtaining pirenzepine because supplement and gabapentin offer temporary relief thus far.

The point is.....I would never receive proper diagnosis or suggestion for supplements from a physician unless I kept pushing and doing a lot of research on my own. I have seen many many doctors over the years.....Then as I expanded my knowledge I slowly began to notice that some doctors are clueless and incorrect(using outdated knowledge). It has forever changed my perspective on physicians.
It's actually a pretty good ELI5 explanation of attention - "ingenious mechanism which illuminates certain symbols with a bright light"...
