This is no more true than for people who send their kids to regular school. All of society is streamlined to do this. As soon as you attempt to home school, the vast majority of people will tell you it is akin to child abuse and you might be lucky enough to know a few other homeschooling parents who tell you otherwise but their voices will pale in comparison to the cacophony from the other side. Make no mistake that it is a massive leap of faith - not some easy decision made in an echo chamber.

This lumps all the people who die by suicide into a single category. People commit suicide for various reasons.

Some of them do it to stop suffering, as the article says. Some do it out of sheer vengeance. Some do it as part of a pact. Some do it in such a way so that the cause is not proven to be suicide, and thus their near-and-dear get the insurance money. Some do it so that they have control over their lives till the very end. Some others like Mitchell Heisman, do it just because they can.

At the same time, some of these causes are preventable. Good faith attempts to address those causes are, of course, always laudable.
Those who love law, sausage, or embedded devices shouldn't watch any of them being made.
"Why hasn’t the number of deaths by suicide decreased?"

That housing and groceries is getting more and more expensive certainly doesn't help with that...

Of course, not so many people in this world suffer anymore from hunger but in the last years additional problems came up.

I know some older people who think that Depression is just a excuse for not wanting to work but these older people had it easier to build or buy a house than my generation - so I think more that the rising Depression in many is a symptom for an live which gets more and more difficult and them not being able to deal with it.
> Anecdotally, another danger is people confusing less eating with a healthy diet. I know someone on Ozempic...eats less but what is eaten is the same old junk...

There is anecdotal evidence that eating less is, in itself, so much more healthy that it doesn't really matter what you eat. Nutrition professor Mark Haub ate nothing but "convenience store food" for 10 weeks at a caloric deficit and all of his health metrics improved while he lost 27lbs.

The first noble truth posits that dukkha (suffering) is a characteristic of existence in the realm of rebirth. The second, third and fourth noble truths posit that escape from dukkha (and therefore escape from the cycle of death and rebirth) is possible. "Life is suffering" is a shallow misinterpretation of Buddhist theology; Buddhists believe that all suffering has an identifiable cause and a known remedy.

at lowest for me it was normal to be in bed for 16-20 hours a day in agonizing pain and horrific migraines. Dozens of doctor appointments had mostly been a waste. They all claimed it was anxiety.

Realized one morning that I had spent hours thinking how wonderful it would be to never wake up again. Have kids, and the would end up in state care without me. (No family capable of caring for them)

Started trying every suggestion I could find on the internet. Lots of wasted effort and backfires. 6 months later I was Kayaking with kids each weekend. Took about 3 years to get mostly back to normal.

Hardest part was giving up all normal food and switching to a strict plain chicken, sweet potatoes and green veggies diet.
Supplements, massages, avoiding all scents, special eye glasses, etc. eventually finding the right medications that didn’t have insane side effects.
It was said there was hummus on the Moon which may explain why Israel sent the tardigrades.

In any case, the alleged tardigrades were actually in the “tun state” (dehydrated) and on a 1 cm square piece of tape that was embedded in epoxy resin. Therefore if they were not vaporized by the impact of the crash they would be preserved but unable to reanimate…

This is why NATO has sent several secret resupply missions with solvent, tiny water bottles, and pita bread, in recent years. But so far all attempts to rehydrate the tardigrades have also crashed.

What about wealthy person with down syndrome ? What about criminals that's clearly "down" in the ladder, is it fine to make joke about them ?

>ABSTRACT. In January-February 1939, a secret German expedition visited Dronning (or Queen) Maud Land,
Antarctica, apparently with the intention inter alia of establishing a base there. Between 1943 and 1945 the British
launched a secret wartime Antarctic operation, code-named Tabarin. Men from the Special Air Services Regiment
(SAS), Britain’s covert forces for operating behind the lines, appeared to be involved. In July and August 1945, after the German surrender, two U-boats arrived in Argentina. Had they been to Antarctica to land Nazi treasure or officials?

>In the southern summer of 1946–1947, the US Navy appeared to ‘invade’ Antarctica using a large force. The operation,
code-named Highjump, was classified confidential. In 1958, three nuclear weapons were exploded in the region, as
part of another classified US operation, code-named Argus.

"The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance."

- Aristotle

"Fiction is a certain packaging of the truth, or higher truths. Indeed I find that there is more truth in Proust, albeit it is officially fictional, than in the babbling analyses of the New York Times that give us the illusions of understanding what’s going on. Newspapers have officially the right facts, but their interpretations are imaginary – and their choice of facts are arbitrary. They lie with right facts; a novelist says the truth with wrong facts."

As I'm getting older (mid 40s), I have a different view now than before. I've seen people die in real life, and it was horrific. Even in hospital beds with morphine drips.

I don't want to die in agony, or slowly suffocating as many do. I'll end it before it goes too far.

I think more people should actually go to hospitals and see how real people die, instead of the comforting movie version where the family is gathered around while the old person slowly falls to sleep. That's unfortunately not that common.

If I get cancer, I'll hang on for a while until there's not much hope left, and then go to a place with assisted suicide.

Also easier in finding a job with an employer that would invest in your training and invest in the community and a stable economy where your wages, purchasing power and savings weren't obliterated overnight through the stroke of a pen that also pushed housing prices up by the same amount.

The fabric of society and community has degraded in the last couple of decades since the 2008 bust and it hasn't gotten any better. It's now "grab everything you can while you can, screw everyone else, or be poor".
It's sadly very true. Yes-men, doing their best to handle everything without asking .. get nothing[0].

As a long-time Emacs user who also occasionally uses Vi and very rarely Vim... but also knows a bunch of people who are in the later camp: nobody in that camp buys / uses "non-US" keyboards. Even on "US" keyboards, the amount of remapping a typical user does to their keys is significant.

In other words: you are complaining about a problem that doesn't exist. Users who want Vim / Emacs experience don't want keyboards that don't work well with their editor of choice. They will not be in a situation where they have to adjust their editor to the keyboard layout. If there's a mismatch, then the keyboard will be adjusted, not the editor.

Now, I'm not sure how Vi(m) users handle other written languages, but since I every now and then have to write in two non-Latin languages, in Emacs, I keep buffers for those languages with input method set accordingly. However, say, I need to write in Cyrillic, I still use the en_US modified QUERTY layout that I use for everything else + phonetic transliteration into Cyrillic. This is both easier for touch-typing, as I don't have to memorize several different layouts, and this method makes more letters easily available than there would've been on a physical keyboard.

So... no. don't stop incorporating Emacs / Vi key usage into new products. It works great.

Also:

> ignores the past few decades of UX research

Except there was none. Unless you mean it in the same way how for some reason people who make HTML pages call themselves "UX developers". What happened is that big companies wanted to sell products that looked "impressive", but offered worse user experience overall. This is how MSVS, Eclipse, and similar happened. There's literally no UX research on how people deal with typing text into computers. Whereas in practice, what I see is that people who use "visual" tools just suck at writing text. And, myself, having worked with both "visual" editors and Emacs / Vi, I would literally refuse a job position if I had to work with VSCode / IntelliJ products.
Hi, I'm the author of Inlets. We've seen a recent rise in users looking to tunnel TCP traffic w/o these kinds of hacks and additional tools.

> For knowledge work, though, the best work is done by people who are intrinsically motivated. Rewards (like a life-altering kickback) don't actually elevate performance that much. Instead, they become the new baseline, and performance falls once again.

"70%?! That sounds extrinsically motivated... We believe that the best work is done for intrinsic satisfaction! We'll throw in a subsistence salary and 1% equity, just because. (And let's make it options, not founders' shares, since you're intrinsically motivated, right?)"
Was anything of value lost?

The idea, as I understand it, was co-working spaces. They were there to optimize that, extracting the maximum profit in the way they leased stuff. Ok, fine.

Is co-working still going on? Has something desirable been lost? Were they creating any value that couldn't be recreated by someone else.

I can't care one way or another about fake valuation of market cap. But I do care if work is getting done, and that people are trying to find new ways to do it.

So can someone tell me if there is a there there or if this is just very rich people complaining that they didn't get richer?

Really interesting concept. The most intriguing part is the ability to add LLM functionality directly in your code. From the documentation:

```

local PRIMER =

"You are a sushi chef in a sushi restaurant. " ..

"You are kind and cheerful and excited about offering " ..

"different kinds of sushi to the customer."

function onClick()

aiCharacter(PRIMER)

end

```

This opens up a world of possibilities for a casual game developer and there are many other interesting features. I would love to read more about how they are controlling cost on their api searches with the LLM. I look forward to seeing more from rooms.xyz.

Yes its a huge value loss but isn't this part of the VC model - invest in some companies knowing most will probably whither away in one way or another but a few will hit it out the park? The article mentions Benchmark and Insight have done ok in their other investments.
