I don't need studies to validate the hundreds of incredible results I've seen within the population I have direct access to (and myself)

Moreover, what's most onerous, if anything, about the psychotherapeutic mindset is the implicit "broken / fixed" distinction (usually framed as something like "health" or "well-adjustedness")

Another framing with regard to experience would look at "development," "growth," "abundance," "depth," "truth"

There is much to unfold and discover in this life, and psychotherapy is a sliver of a broader set of practices—which have been with humanity for the entirety of recorded history—for doing so deliberately

What's most interesting about this article is the demonstration of a high form of a certain current in conservative culture: intolerance for (read: anger and fear at) the "sensitivity" of others. The internal script is something like "I can't handle that other people are sensitive and lash out at me for how I am." The projection is self-evident.
I thought it was the influx of new money printed, which we've done in the form of Quantitative Easing, multiple bail outs, etc.

Good for her! Taking care of personal well-being and spending time with loved ones while being productive enough - otherwise you'd have left her go, right?

Why the default assumption that everyone wants to participate in a rat race and play office politics to get a chance to be promoted?
To be fair, employers never stopped extracting surplus.
More industry extortion. Some bored fellow needs to do a deep dive and help dismantle this machine that destroys artists and fans alike.

The person shirking their duty knew the risks and was even profiting from their negligent behavior. Meanwhile a person lost their life who has nothing to gain from this. I blame the employer and the employee. Employers shouldn’t set their employees up to fail, and employees should know a risky proposition when they see it.
After I had my morning beverage, I realized “steak appetizer” would’ve been better than “kiddie meal”.
Perhaps that makes sense if you can't release anything with more substance due to regulation, but need to show you've done something to validate the company. Customers likely recognize a UI change over a bug fix, so bug fixes are deprioritized.
It comes down to how you define "work". People seem to want to put a lot of energy into doing stuff, sometimes stuff which is very hard labor or mentally challenging. The key is that they are most happy and willing to do this when they have a passion or a goal.

But when the "work" you are being asked to do seems pointless, or it seems like the vast majority of the benefit of your work is going to people who are already wealthy and powerful, there's much less motivation.

One of the most demotivating things is seeing your work thrown away. In the software world, we experience this often. Sometimes you can even finish a big project, really being proud at having built something great, but then something will change and render that product pointless (at least based on the current business plan).

After a few situations like that, one becomes more cautious. Performing heavy tasks on the whim of leader is less attractive.
That's part of it. But yeah, say you got massively unlucky, like a ministroke or a really bad car crash, affecting your ability to bring in cash and that took much of your savings.

Safety nets are needed, and typically are underfunded. With one in place, most people can rebound to their most able.

military expansion into real territory and economic territory have some similarities; civilian economic activity produces goods and services (and culture) while military simply consumes, at least.

cage the beast

edit in fairness, some technology from dot-mil is quite good, and this forum is an indirect descendant of that. Dot-mil, in return for ample budgets and long timelines, brings tech back to civilian purposes, including addressing Climate and related. So, partnering with good limits, not blank checks, seems productive and appropriate. Dot-mil can pay society for producing and enriching them.
It seems like the primary consumer of our money is the artificial lack of housing inventory brought upon by the ability of folks to own more than one property.

I suggest (and have suggested numerous times) that we disallow ownership of property for profit. Create a system that allows people to “buy” property short term through government loan structures that have very low interest rates and allows them to create an equity building mechanism early on. On paper it would have all the benefits of purchase with all of the benefits of leasing as well.

The flood of new available property would absolutely crash our current economy, since it’s so extended on property ownership, but we did it wrong and we need to correct.
Some quotes appear to be from agriculture sector. A sector known for hiring immigrants because of the long hours, low pay, abusive environments (threats of ICE detention, …)

Some quotes appear to be from the service industry and during the pandemic. In the US, the minimum wage is STILL $7.25/hour. If you are a server the minimum wage is $2.13/hour. No shit, nobody wants to work. No way I am risking dying because a Karen does not want to mask up or get vaccinated for minimum wage, no benefits, no prospects.

All in all, when a business owner or hiring manager says “people don’t want to work anymore”. That’s really code for: we abuse our employees, pay is shit, hours are probably long.

I don't think that's relevant unless you state your age and it is well above 30. Until then you are inevitably clueless and usually sought after by the employers because you are full of energy and cheap to rent, chow and spit out when you burn out.
The U.S. military has turned into little more than a glorified but lethal jobs program.

Since the U.S. doesn’t do “socialism” but some degree of socialism is very useful to keep your population productive, the US government has decided to hide its socialism in the guise of the military instead of just having a normal jobs program and/or industrial policy.

If the U.S. were to actually run the military for defensive purposes right now half the states in the country would go bankrupt and it would hit a massive recession.

Fortunately within the past year or so the US has begun returning to actual industrial policy so hopefully it can now start shifting its military to focus on actual military ends rather than as a job works program.
| equitable growth.
| We taxed the ultra wealthy at a much, much higher rate than we do today and
| individual purchasing power was much higher.

This is so tangential to the article that is borderline off topic. You don't solve the US defense problem by attempting to tackle something as politically challenging as major changes to US tax policy.
If set up that way then yes it meets the definition of a function. I’m not a complex analyst but I imagine they think of a function from C to C on a given branch rather than multi-function being a function from C to the countable product of C (or however one wants to formally define the set value). I think this because they tend to care about analytic properties and saying function from C to countable product of C includes far too many functions. Saying multifunction will immediately make one think of branch cuts.

They don’t think of Log(z) as a set of values. At least I don’t. I assume one means the principal branch when writing Log(z) unless specifically stated otherwise. Maybe in their mind they do think of an infinite set when seeing Log(z). I’m skeptical of this possibility though.
You just need to own a million dollar truck, have no life and be at risk of bankruptcy if the economy goes wrong. Also work 12-14 hrs and get paid for 8.
> chief content of this myth is that people often cannot process or work through adverse events and traumas—abuses ...

It's not people often, it's some people sometimes. Not everybody gets traumatized by the same things, not everybody needs help to process them. But some need help and for some psychotherapy helps.
Sorry, for some reason I thought it was started in the mid 70s.

If you don't think you learn that from competitive debate, you don't know many debaters.

One of the biggest skills it teaches is argument-analysis, and you'd better believe that sticks around outside the debate round.
If you live in the US and like to donate to charity you can have your own private foundation and you don’t have to be a jerk about it! It can be a convenient way for you to do good in the world.

It’s called a Donor Advised Fund and you can donate large sums to it and then direct the money in pieces to charities you support over time. In between the money gets to grow if you choose to invest it, and you get the tax write off at the time of donation not distribution because you can never get the money back.

Why would you do this? Well maybe you had a windfall profit one year (sold your company?) and you want to donate a lot of it before the tax year ends but you’re not sure where yet.

Or maybe you want to donate something besides cash to a charity without the systems to accept it. Like appreciated shares in your company, or cryptocurrency.

If you do this for the right reasons it’s not sinister at all. It’s just a safe and tax efficient way to manage your charitable ambitious.

You can even set one up on your phone, in like 10 minutes: https://www.daffy.org/

(Note: there’s a lot to argue about when it comes to what counts as a charity in the US and the nearly unlimited nature of the income deductions you can get from donating. But in the end I think as long as the tax code stays the way it is it makes sense for people who can afford it to give some money to a cause they support)
In this case, explain your dismissal. That’s it. Nothing wrong with having that opinion but don’t express it without actually explaining it.

She is framing up her adult relationship with you.

And you are framing up your adult relationship with her (regardless of how you fell about that).

You can of course prioritize "Part of me, however, feels"

Or perhaps prioritize time with her without thinking about productivity, efficiency, or anything else besides the moment.

Good luck.

This is an enjoyable article from 2017 about the role of Edinburgh in the history of rhubarb in the UK. (I think I may even have originally discovered it on HN). Abstract:

Rhubarb was grown and used throughout China for thousands of years. It then found its way to St Petersburg where the Romanovs developed a flourishing trade in the plant to the rest of Europe. James Mounsey, a physician to the Tsar, brought back seeds from Russia to Scotland at considerable risk to himself. He passed some of the seeds to Alexander Dick and John Hope. Both these physicians then grew rhubarb at Prestonfield and the Botanic Garden (both in Edinburgh), respectively. Eventually rhubarb, in the form of Gregory’s powder, became a common and popular medicine throughout the UK.

I made my own proportional font Variable.ttf and refined it for over a decade. I am using it daily. Over many iterations I refined space width and each important coding character's shape and size. Added some ligatures in the last few years. It's very good I consider it a work of art, and I cannot think about going back to fixed fonts. Only me and my friend use it.

Does this have native-comp enabled? Or do you still have to build from source for that?
Ouch. Compared to current ones, I'd unfortunately have to say yes.
For me, the issue is there's work, but nobody wants to hire me because I:

* Have been off the job market for a while because nobody would interview me let alone consider me

* The last job I had was a month long, and it ended with my termination for performance in a setting where I arguably could not succeed.

And my run of bad luck has led to difficulty keeping work for the past two years. Its not fair, and I can't blame anyone for not wanting to do it anymore. The juice isn't worth the squeeze.
I will go work construction tomorrow if the pay is right. I like being outside.

Of course, there's never a labor shortage, only a wage shortage.
rsync.net is more expensive than something like backblaze though, which makes me wonder why someone would use it other than for the geek factor.

The OP alluded to tarsnap being the best, but didn't really explain why that is. Rsync too sounds like it'd be fun to use, but it's 3x the price of backblaze b2 and has a minimum order size of ~$10/month
You likely thought so because it's the position UBI proponents on HN (and elsewhere) take. They claim that inflation is caused by the increased money supply only and UBI cannot possibly cause inflation, and repeat this in every UBI thread, so somebody who is not familiar with the topic might conclude that inflation is the increase of the money supply.
Absolutely. For the first startup that I worked for, I earned a position with budgeting authority. Once we achieved profitably, I added donations to the open source tools we relied upon. I received some pushback and defended it. Looking back, I am proud of that choice. I encourage you all to do the same.

Theres another level to this going on in certain places too. Its not enough to have both partners working. Now in places like the bay area if you want to be competitive in the housing market, both partners have to be working high income jobs not just working at all. Even if you have a great title, if your partner doesnt, you will be lapped by people who have vastly more buying power than either of you can ever muster together.

I wonder if this creates some serious perverse incentives in the dating scene in these parts of the country. Like people who understand this economic situation and unfortunately write off what might have been great partners because their line of work will never afford the standards of living their dual high income peers are able to achieve.
But if you're incapable of recognizing your reduced standing in the world, you can end up miscalculating the resistance from other nations as you promote your interests. Being unable to accurately assess the expectations of success of other nations in promoting their interests will just lead to runaway escalation and potentially a world war.
Can we ban "sign up to read more" sites like substack to discourage their use in our corner of the internet?
I think piketty would disagree. Productivity per worker has gone up but the share of profits going to workers has gone down. This is not some kind of inflation driven by scarcity.
First line of the article:

> The United States is in big trouble militarily. That’s the upshot of a new RAND publication…

So the defense think tank says we need to spend more on defense. Stop the presses!

Listen, if China literally attacks the US directly, the whole world has already lost. You might as well worry about how well-prepared we are for a direct comet strike.

Isn’t that the task of tax attorneys? Different line of work, though same domain of concern.
If all out nuclear war breaks out, we have much bigger problems than building boats. Do you have any sources for the china claims?
> If all out war breaks out between two nuclear powers I don’t think 155mm production/stockpiles are going to be quite as impactful as these folks say

Yes they are. Traditional war will occur right up to the point where one of the two sides begins to lose particularly badly and throws down the nuclear card as a fail safe. The nuclear card would not be thrown in the beginning in a war between two major powers, that would only happen early on in a situation where eg Iran had nukes and got into a war with the US (weaker power vs superpower, early nuke card).
> I said if there is no satisfaction then you need to find a different job.

In this is the implicit assumption that there are enough jobs to give everyone satisfaction - that is what people are taking issue with. Do you believe that assumption is true?
The booksellers at the Seine are a well-known fixture and a minor tourist attraction (not for the Paris-in-24-hours crowd). They have a long history dating back to the 16th century: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bouquinistes

Well that's how it was taught to me. This new thing just confuses me and I wonder what the old inflation should be called now.

https://www.etymonline.com/word/inflation#etymonline_v_6450
>Monetary sense of "enlargement of prices" (originally by an increase in the amount of money in circulation) first recorded 1838 in American English.

Even the oldest wikipedia entry has this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Inflation&oldid=2...
>In some contexts the word "inflation" is used to mean an increase in the money supply, which is sometimes seen as the cause of price increases. Some economists (of the Austrian school) still prefer this meaning of the term, rather than to mean the price increases themselves. Thus, for example, some observers of the 1920s in the United States refer to "inflation" even though prices of goods were not increasing at the time. Below, the word "inflation" will be used to refer to a general increase in prices unless otherwise specified.

To me inflation means this. What should I call it because nowadays inflation simply means prince increase. What's the term for the "old inflation"? I want a word for it and apparently I can't use inflation anymore because its meaning has changed. Debasement? Can you use that when the central bank expands the money supply and causes the value of currency to decline? Because you can't call that inflation anymore as language has apparently evolved.
Offtopic, but that picture about that science guy with facemask under his nose really rustles my jimmies.
My point is simply like a lot of other things, government financial policy should be set based on science and understanding, not by politicians in power who feel they know best.
> We taxed the ultra wealthy at a much, much higher rate than we do today and individual purchasing power was much higher.

And colleges were free, too. People seem to forget this. But then somebody came along and undid all that, and by the 80s, things were going downhill fast.
That's a weird take, abstractions don't create complexity, they simplify because it requires less context to understand what's going on.
I don't think my glasses can correct my vision well enough to be able to read 80-char-wide text on a smartphone in portrait mode. I can't say for sure because I don't own a smartphone--partly because I worry about being able to read web pages on it without regularly resorting to the aforementioned tedious horizontal scrolling.

I always wear my glassses when I'm using my iPad, which is in landscape mode almost all the time (the exceptions being the rare apps like Uber's that won't do landscape mode).

Is that gross revenue before paying for diesel, the loan on the truck, the employer side of Social Security tax, health insurance? If it’s as simple as you say to earn $160K-$180K why isn’t everyone doing it? In an efficient market arbitrage opportunities usually close quickly.
Especially if you consider GDP (adjusted for inflation) has grown over time as we..

If you compare to a benchmark like the 1940s, tax% of GDP has more than doubled, and GDP has increased ~4x. This means someone today is paying about 10X the taxes (controlling for for inflation!)
No, the adults remember. They get angry if you point out how they behaved when they were young.

The real complaint is "young people won't let me boss them around".

> out of the billions of people who have lived in the last 2,500 years an infinitesimal small percentage have complained about roughly the same thing

I'm willing to bet that the majority of people have complained about being hungry, at some point in their lives. I would guess this practice began some time before the invention of language. Some things really are universal.
Sorry, but "portable MRIs" makes no sense. Current high-temperature superconductors (HTS) can probably get you from 3 Tesla to 6 Tesla for commercial MRIs which means better resolution. But you still need magnets large enough to enclose a human body and the structural materials (steel) to withstand the magnetic forces. Also you need to keep the machine clear of metal objects or you have to shut down and restart the magnets which contain so much energy that it has to be released slowly and is a long and involved process.
> California's high speed rail may never be completed.

It will be, but only because it's not really optional in the long term. It's super-expensive, but the alternatives are even more expensive in the very long term.

Possibly moronic question:

Maybe a RTSC based chip doesnt need to compete with modern chips in terms of process size or transistor count?

What if you could make an RTSC based chip with complexity and process size comparable to e.g. a 1993 era RISC chip but it runs at 500ghz or something

(Of course you'd need memory, or at least a heck of a cache, that could keep up)
