"Correlation" is the key word here. I think it's really important to keep in mind that a lot of people with ADHD have childhood trauma because of how adults responded to their ADHD symptoms. In my case, I have plenty of trauma, almost all of which was the direct results of adults shaming and criticizing me for traits that turned out to be due to ADHD. If your ADHD makes it impossible for you to focus in school, and the adults in your life shame and yell at you every day because you can't focus in school, you're going to have both trauma and ADHD. There's also a solid chance you'll end up with some anxiety and depression. All we know is that a) there's a correlation, b) lots of people with ADHD don't have severe childhood trauma, and c) it's a huge stretch to assume that every person with ADHD is repressing severely traumatic childhood events and never finding out about it. I think it's potentially plausible that generational trauma might have an epigenetic impact, but we'd need a lot more data to know that.

This has generally been my experience with a few more abstract areas of math. Maybe it’s just me and my domain of interest, but I can never seem to find an application that justifies the effort required to learn it. I’m glad some people are working on it, because maybe that application will show up tomorrow and I find it conceptually neat, but there’s only so much time in the day.
Thanks for the feedback! All resources are namespaced right now, except there is an issue the notebook plugin where namespaces are indeed broken: https://github.com/substratusai/substratus/issues/193 Will get that fixed very soon.
They also turn on warnings, so they catch uninitialized variables and the like.
Sweet summer child. Insurance will pay for it. You just have to spend $5000 of your time nagging them.
Not answering your question, but I have to say, this is one of the best analogies I've encountered in a while.
Thank you for sharing your experiences - neurofeedback/ neurostimulation is indeed a novel and promising pathway to, ultimately, improving quality of life for those who has ADHD. While we can't talk about all of coaching since it differs, our coaching offer which is informed by the 3rd wave cognitive and behavioural psychological approaches, is situated firmly within the practices that were demonstrated to be useful and helpful to those with ADHD. This is supported by the ongoing research in coaching and psychotherapy. In addition, our view is that it is a combination of different types of interventions which really makes a difference for those with ADHD. I am eagerly watching the progression of Neurode though, and the trials!
There was a NYTimes profile at the time of Kent's efforts, and they IIRC literally got the UC Santa Cruz administration to hand over desktop computers destined to go to various people for a few months to assemble into a cluster. So it was likely a bunch of pentium pros or similar. Not a Beowulf cluster, of course, but whatever clustering software Kent had hand rolled out of C for the purpose.

Just throwing my anecdotes here as well. My 3 Apple products:

1) Macbook Pro 2015: Still going strong to this day. To my suprise, the battery can still last ~30 mins after a full charge.

2) IPhone 6: Camera died for no reason after 1 year.

3) Macbook Air M1: Screen cracked for no reason after 2 years. Machine cannot boot up because of it. Quoted repair cost was $470. I'm probably gonna shelf it. What's weird is that I know a couple other people that had similar experience as well (spontaneous screen crack with the MBA M1).
I’ve seen some supposed attempts to crack down on fare evasion but the people doing the enforcement seem to be intentionally misapplying it to say, old folks and working professionals who have only $2 on their clipper card and who are likely going to refill it when they arrive at their destination (which used to be totally normal), hitting them with $75 citations. Meanwhile the homeless and mentally unstable remain..
I want to make sure you are aware that ADHD prescriptions for desoxyn are extremely rare to the point of being basically zero.

While I am sympathetic to your point that there shouldn’t be a stigma around using any prescribed medicine, I think it is irrelevant to this discussion because the fact of the matter is ADHD drugs just really aren’t the same thing as meth.

If someone leaves their front door unlocked, does that give you permission to enter and take whatever you want?

There is this insane notion that if you can accomplish something in cyber space, then you are allowed to. That's not how society works.
>Or is it because it's written in a manner, easy to understand, easy to extend, and easy to throw away and rewrite if necessary?

This. But IME when you write for this purpose you tend to end up with code that is in fact confusing, not documented, and not test covered. So you need to slow down even if your goal is to one day completely re-write that module.

Perfect abstractions are never perfect unless you completely architect out the product, down to every single edge case. That's virtually impossible with a large codebase, be it due to an API or even compiler level bug.
I'm a little confused by your phrasing:

> The demonstration was: molars and canines have to have contact, if they don't the vestibular system is out of tilt, put a piece of plastic between them, hip flexors relax, hips get their mobility back, back pain goes away.

Does that mean if they aren't touching, your hip flexors relax? Or the piece of plastic makes your molars and canines touch which causes your hip flexors to relax?
That's just not true. Ever been to San Diego? Little Saigon? Chinatown?
> Jacking up salaries without bringing the standard of living for the rest of your society will only lead to a continued breakdown of the social fabric that we have been seeing steadily happening over the past 30-40 years.

Eh, I don't know, if you follow the example of the bay area, jacking up salaries in tech means everyone else paid more money (earning 3k a month means you're upper middle class in France and poor in the bay area). Now if we could fix our housing problem...
I think what the poster above is going for is that the level of safety (as total number of saved human lives) resulting from turning a (napkin or otherwise) calculation into a definitive technological choice is probably suboptimal. Typically we would want a safe process to include retroaction or "self-improving cycles". That is not a single point of measurement or calculation is being used but instead we do provision for future safety evolution of the system, and monitor the safety conditions by setting up regular measurements. So, what is considered safe is not any standard in itself, because as conditions and technologies change it may become outdated quickly, but rather the process to redefine that standard so that we have confidence that our product is not only safe but that we can keep it safe in the long run (since we want to optimize on the total of lives saved, not on a weekly or monthly death toll).

A calculation that leads you to underdesign a product's safety and leaves no room for this product's safety improvement, in terms of mechanical or electronic update, is clearly not thought as being safe in that regard, regardless of the economies of scale or even low-term utilitarian goals (that would be expressed as: people spending money on a tesla would be safer in the short run, rather than using no automatic driving at all while waiting for a better product).

This is an important difference, and there is a societal choice to make here: do we (as society) want to buy now, and potentially have regrets later (when the safety of the product degrades with time, causing it to also have a record of people's deaths), or do we want to proactively force a notion of safety onto cars that is more than just being good enough at an arbitrary point in time, so that we hav more confidence over the long-term viability of that (societal) investment? As you can guess I gravitate towards the later, but of course it's a gradient, with several choices in-between, because pushing that thinking to an extreme would lead to stagnation, which would not do anything in terms of improving safety, as you noted.
Yeah, I mean, then you'll see even more master mills (which are already a thing) and PHD mills.

Traditional sequences of the Y chromosome (and other chromosomes) were missing parts, particularly the highly repetitive regions called "telomeres". This is different from the issue of individual variation (although the authors do provide a map of known variations as well).
This news should be dated back in December, not now.

The T2T team published a preprint [1] last December and released the data [2] in March. However, due to the peer review process, the findings have only just been formally published in Nature. The publication timeline can indeed be slow, and in cases like this one, the question is: what's the point when all scientists interested in the topic already know about it and working with this assembly?

Why do you listen to scientific and/or medical advice from an adult who literally could not have dedicated his or her life to a study any further away from either field?
The food of 1969? I've had it. It was my aunt's cooking and my uncle's butchering - shooting a hog right in the head and then gutting it, draining the blood, and prepping it to go onto a gigantic smoker, and it was delicious. And if you really didn't feel like cooking food yourself, McDonald's did exist back then, along with things like Kentucky Fried Chicken, Krystal, Burger King, etc.

They didn't throw sugar into every single product on the market, either.

The home appliances? You mean blenders and toasters and refrigerators and mixers that would last 20-30 years before needing to be replaced because they were so well-engineered? Those 1969 home appliances? Like the KitchenAid K45 mixer that was released in 1962 and stayed in production for decades? Like the one my Mom got in 1971 that she still has today, whose motor still works fine, and the only thing that's ever been done is 30 minutes of taking it apart and checking the worm drive gears and re-greasing them? Those 1969 appliances??

And the cars? Yeah those were kinda shitty compared to what we have now.

For the most part though, you're not just off-base on the food and appliances, you're hilariously off-base.
Statistically speaking, most developers are not working for startups. And of course, large companies have the sway and politics to go around not being first. e.g. Apple isn't worried about missing the market, they are trendsetters and they light a market up even when 10 years late to it.
Was impressed with the professionalism from this angle. They seemed to focus on charging people with only the correct crimes and communicating processes to ensure those arrested wouldn’t lose their personal effects. Were there abuses of LRAD or tear gas etc on the ground during this NSA arrest or was it done correctly and humanely at all levels?

Thank you for sharing your thought process & feedback taken on the wording. I'll go back to this one. And I really do appreciate you sharing your personal story. Especially the last part where you acknowledge that we wouldn't have kept coaching if you weren't in the right space. This is true in that we have gently recommended pauses to several members when they weren't in the right headspace to continue with coaching and weren't in a space to benefit. This is true across most coaching modalities, in terms of the focus on forward movement and the need for the capacity to support this. I personally have both a founder coach and an ADHD coach, and can attest to the amount of work necessary outside of sessions to create sustainable results. Once again, thank you for sharing your story, and wholeheartedly agree that it's not about "fault", just about fit!
or category theory phase
If you aren't familiar with SDFs, some rough intuition for what's going on here: you have some primitive functions that define shapes, you have combinators that distort shapes, and you then have combinators that distort space. And then when you trace rays through distorted space, you render an image that looks like your combinators distorted the shapes themselves, but really you're distorting the path that your rays travel along.

The operation here is that you distort space with the modulo operator. So now you have space that repeats -- and when you trace rays through this repeated space, you're basically teleporting the rays back to the origin (using mod in the classic "wrapping around" fashion) every time they pass out of a section of space.

And then ultimately the ray will collide with the shape -- the one shape -- that exists in this distorted space, after wrapping around some number of times.

If the idea of "taking the mod of space" is intriguing, I would encourage you to try playing with SDFs! It's a really incredible technique for real-time rendering of "3D vector graphics."

Also shameless plug for my SDF playground https://bauble.studio, and an example program that uses instanced repetition to render an "infinite" number of varying shapes:

(tile [400 0 300] (fn [i]
(torus :z 60 30
| twist :y (sin (t + (hash i * 10)) * 0.05)
| rotate :pi :y (t * hash i) :z 0.05
| move :x 50
| mirror :r 10 :x
| fresnel
| slow 0.5)))

Obviously a lot less compelling than the author's examples...
Ask HN: How to measure the latency numbers every programmer should know?
I have stumbled a few times and in many places on the famous "latency numbers every programmer should know". From what I understand they were first popularised by Peter Norvig. [0]

My question is: how would one go about measuring this kind of numbers? is there a way to actually use some code to make this measurements? even better would be if there was a public repository that one could use to measure some of these numbers.

I would also be happy on a repository where you only measure two of those: read 1 MB sequentially from memory or read 1 MB sequentially from disk.

"we are already at the tail end of the current wave of AI."

Is that really true? Generative AI spending this year just so far is 4x greater than last year, and the results of that spending haven't been released yet. How can they conclude this?

Most "predictions" about the future I've seen assume that ChatGPT will stay the same and not improve for the next 10 years, or only marginally. Why they make this assumption, I don't know, it seems to go against every past trend we've seen with machine learning scaling. There are even people who say LLMs have reached their limit because we've exhausted all the text data that exists, assuming that the only way for LLMs to improve is to blindly feed it more static data and that no other sources of improvements exist.
Ok- a yearly increase based on performance sounds a LOT more attractive than the usual bonus nonsense.
Exactly. The coach cannot do the work for you, but will support you along the way.
The tools are built so that it's pretty hard to use them wrong (use too much force or bend something in the wrong direction). That's why they're so bulky.

They could just send you a screwdriver set and a few spudgers, but it's really easy break a phone like that =)

I believe it's a quit common practice to delegate the GC needs of a GC-language implemented on top of another GC-language, on the latter's GC.

As long as the language is GC agnostic, and just cares for stuff being collected, and not for some particular exposed semantics of the GC, it should be ok.
Thank you, anonymous person! I appreciate the recognition a lot. I have personally gone through many routes as well, in support of my ADHD, and I hope to be able to continue creating & working on a piece of the solution that is beneficial to the community! My favorite part about work is hearing success stories or members working through challenges. It's an honor to be a part of their ADHD journey!
My craft is not leaving a dumpster of a solution to the next people to look at my code when business logic inevitably changes. If someone's solution to seeing my code is "we gotta re-write it", I have either failed or a much more novel solution was discovered that makes my code irrelevant. I hope it's not the former.
You've identified the problem inherent in these models right now, though.

There's a lot of "extraneous" information and details that appear useless and unrelated, but that long-time developers have tucked away in their brains (or really anyone who has done something at a high level for a long time), that turns out to be incredibly useful; generally these people don't require examples - they just know what the right answer is, because they've been exposed to a variety of problems over a long career or lifespan.

That's where LLMs need to be to be truly "useful". I think if we get them to that point, we'll really have something useful on our hands.
Personally I trust my corner repair shop (mind, a specific repair shop in my town, not all of them) more than Apple to fix only what's broken and not swap the whole phone.

Not to mention I don't have to ship the phone to another town or something like that.

That's true. Curtness does often sound negative. That's a good point I hadn't considered.
Maybe they should go with “Effectively unlimited some of the time depending on how much data you want to store, not too much, please be nice”. Or, you know, they could actually list the actual fucking limit.

Incompleteness theorem implies none of them are “right” in a “one true axiomatic model” kind of way.

Each is “right” so long as they are consistent with our consensus driven glyph system that exists to normalize discussion, and should never be taken as a 1:1 model of reality.

The glyph systems are not a pipe.
> If I was feeling paranoid and wanted to know if my files are being sent to some third destination I’d be able to open up dev tools to check. A lot more challenging with a native app.

The reason we're generally "paranoid" about running arbitrary code in the browser is that every fucking website wants to run arbitrary code in the browser, not because an app that actually has a reason to do it, does.

A website should just be a document when it is just a document, which is 95%+ of the content linked on HN.
Thank you! That would be me. I am clueless on amd64 on how to speed up the boot process and maybe change a few fonts during boot.

I understand the reasons for no "how-tos". But sometimes they make sense for people like me. I wouldn't mind delving a bit deeper given some direction.
big claims require big justifications. I can't just go out and say "C++ is better than Javascript" and expect people to not scrutinize me because "well it was a short comment".

But hey, they do justify it in responses. So maybe they are indeed playing to their philosophy of "work fast"
I think they mean tail end of LLM innovation? As in, all the discovery has been done and so all that is left is just computing power and tweaks rather than breakthroughs.

I believe the OpenAI folks have already said something to that effect a while ago as well.

For end users, the results of tweaks/computational power will seem like "breakthrough" to them but it's fundamentally not.
>But reducing binary size doesn't seem to be one of them. Unless you count [Go program using its own GC + the one in Go runtime] vs. [only the one in Go runtime]

Yes, of course that's what they mean. Not having 0 code for GC altogether, but just using the GC that you already have, and is required overhead, as opposed to implementing another and having both.
Therapy to deal with childhood trauma can absolutely benefit people with ADHD. Having ADHD doesn't magically make you immune to PTSD or other impacts of childhood trauma. It just means you also have ADHD. I know this because I have both ADHD and C-PTSD, and the ADHD was very, very present by the time the trauma started. Trauma symptoms exacerbate ADHD symptoms, and often vice versa. Both need to be treated. If kids' ADHD symptoms improve with trauma treatment, that doesn't necessarily mean they never had ADHD. It just means their overlapping symptoms might be less difficult to handle or, just as likely, mask. Ignoring the reality of overlap between trauma and ADHD serves only to erase people who have both. It benefits no one.
Thank you for putting into words exactly the thing I wanted to understand but couldn’t figure out how to ask.
What do you mean by "LR"? I queried an LLM but no results there either.
