Agree. Shimmer is currently in the "assume good faith" category and it would help everyone if commenters gave feedback and asked questions from this perspective.

From what I've seen of Shimmer, the rapid-fire negativity in this discussion is not warranted. I have run a mental health startup. Criticism is constant and highly energised, and it really wears you down after a while. I expect they're also copping it from established practitioners, their industry bodies, and various regulators.

I currently use Shimmer, I have used BetterHelp and TalkSpace. These last two are... not in the "assume good faith" category. Perhaps they could show up to HN for some "robust discussion".

The thing I would like from Shimmer is a policy and mechanism where if you stop accessing the app and showing up to coaching, they stop billing you. Of course this would be startup poison, businesses are built on subscription revenue from non-users. But only billing for care you provide is the strongest show of ethics and consumer-centering I can imagine. Especially when your client base is ADHDers! Shimmer, if you currently do this, put it on the front page in bold.
OTOH you shouldn’t necessarily trust what corporations say about this.

If you hold this opinion then you can never say water, food, shelter, internet, etc. are human rights either.
Something better for this would probably be Obsidian.md
I was struck by the home / house contrast in the original headline but left as is because, in American English, home is a nice way of saying where someone lives regardless of the type of structure, apartment or house or even a houseboat. The flip side is someone can be homeless and living in their car or a shelter, neither would typically be thought of as homes.
as it stands now, the ridiculous claim that "more people trust gossip" than 61% to 71% of people is pretty unconvincing

Just to be clear, I find conversion of viable multifamily buildings into mansions generally repugnant.

The opposite process also happens, though... not just a 3- and 4-story residential buildings demolished for large residential towers (plenty of that in NYC) but single-family brownstones carved up into smaller dwelling units.

The map caption "Conversions Have Erased Some Gains in NYC's Housing Stock" would make a less deceptive headline. The map shows data from a defined timespan ("between 2010 and 2021") and shows that there's not a single community district that hasn't added housing units. The headline, meanwhile, refers to a vague "70-plus years" timeframe. That's long enough that you could probably find hundreds of buildings that have bounced between single- and multi-family several times.

And in fact the underlying research characterizes any building that was ever recorded as multifamily and currently isn't as a "loss." I fear it risks romanticizing the 20th century's cramped tenements.

(And again, just to be clear, I find conversion of viable multifamily buildings into mansions generally repugnant.)
It's mainly the fact that Bitcoin mining sets a price floor on electricity prices. It's a buyer of last resort. Without it you'll get negative electricity prices and less investment in renewables.

> Go’s GC is undeniably less advanced than OpenJDK’s

Java relies very heavily on its GC and tends to generate a lot more short lived objects which need collection than Go. Go's approach to memory management learns from this and focuses on creating fewer short-lived memory objects and providing much shorter GC pauses than Java. It's definitely less complex than Java's GC but it's also very performant and a lot less trouble than Java's GC in my experience.
As I recall, by far the most vocal opponents of the BfA version of the event were players who sat at the auction house at all times, constantly buying, selling, and relisting auctions. Some of them had to be botting with how long they stayed logged in.

Some other groups also weren’t happy but managed to figure out workarounds.
Intercity/ interstate migration is a huge contributor to the pressure in major US cities. If NYC or SF were 1/4th the cost I would move there immediately, but the value would be marginal at this point.
it's sort of the opposite

the critical path for fast typing is the precision with which you can synchronize the motions of different fingers, and in particular different hands; if keydown events happen in the wrong order, you start to get tranpsosition erorrs

chording keyboards don't care in which order the keys in the chord start; they only care what the set of keys in the chord is and when it ends (so they can stop looking for new keys to add to the set). fast typists on chording keyboards can do 300 words per minute, which is about 7 chords per second, which is about as many "strokes" as a normal typist on a non-chording keyboard, just with chords (producing a syllable each) instead of individual keys
(producing a letter each)

adding a required modifier key that has to happen before a keystroke, and end before the next keystroke, is the opposite; it adds more things you have to sequence correctly. in the half-keyboard patch case, in particular, it adds 50% more things. this slows down your typing by about a third
But why oh why does everything need to be in Paris ? We're not retards in Lyon, Rouen or Bordeau. Even Marseille can handle some stuff. See the point ? Why waste to hyper densify one crappy city/area when we could spread development keeping low density ?

Or maybe I guess I mean: low density provide more benefit to more people than hyper density, the only future proposed by OP, will ever compensate due to "low rent" (which will explode once there's not one single meter square free left), because once you chose SF as the only IT hub that ever will be and commit for 25 years of future development, then no IT worker will ever think of any other city and will move there faster than you're building anyway. Just like Paris for French people: the only place I wanted to go after Uni was there, because that's the only place with interesting/important/paid jobs: isn't THIS the issue ?

They used to get a lot more attention, even mentioned in a lot of main stream media. Not sure why, but I don't recall hearing much about them even on "nerd" sites in many years. I just occasionally think to look up and see what's won.
Reminds me of the copypasta that’s says the “uncanny valley” indicates that in some time during our evolution we had good reason to identify something that looked human but wasn’t.
Interesting solution. I had some concerns at first but increasing the threshold and manually whitelisting some common valuable but non-unique comments would probably go a long way. Maybe even reduce it to parts of a comment to reduce lazy jokes.
Common internet fact: people can and will use the most popular platform for features it was actively not designed for. Hence, dozens long twitter rants that should have been a blog, imageboards being used for news, and closed off chatrooms being used to more or less house arcane knowledge, some documented and some not.

Not much you can do there.

You've misunderstood the person you're replying to. He's not saying that dollar tree is for poor. He's intentionally making a logical fallacy - 'no one needs to go to the grocery store [in this case, dollar tree] since whenever I visit my friends' houses, they always have food!'

>Or as he puts it: I suspect everybody has what they need at all times based off of the fact that I’ve never known anyone that is starving.

He's making fun of the guy in the original comment, who questioned whether anyone needs to shoplift, because his personal friend circle didn't include people who had to shoplift out of necessity.
Yep. I did find a therapist that I really like, but I had to give up on the idea of using insurance.

I'm saying that 9/10 startups in Chicago could move 70 miles north to Milwaukee, pay less in taxes, offer their employees a shorter commute and a more favorable housing market, and position themselves in the "internship sphere" of three Big 10 universities instead of two, but they don't. The reasons for that trace back to the basic fact that there are fewer people in Milwaukee, fewer people who have been there, and thus, fewer people willing to move there sight unseen. Not to mention the perception of status that comes with the California tech valleys. I use Milwaukee as an example, but the same logic applies to Detroit and Minneapolis, among others.
Given that most things cost money it makes sense that everybody without any money would be "needy enough to shoplift."

which comments should be generated?

what if the output has comments?

in my question, there is no need for the decorator to be handled at runtime, the tool that does the LLM stuff has to parse the Python code to know what to generate. It can just key off of decorators rather than comments, or at least this is my question & hypothesis.
The crucial thing for me to remember is that it wasn't my fault. I can do whatever I want because 100 companies are responsible for 71% of GHG. It is their fault and their shareholders' fault and my behaviour has no effect. Once I remember this, I stop worrying because of that piece of the Prayer of Serenity:

> God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference

Since I cannot change this, I just need the wisdom to know the difference and the serenity to accept it.
I hear that depression is often comorbid with ADHD, since people who struggle with executive function to the point where they’re having trouble keeping their life in order are also likely to get depressed about their inability do do anything about it.
Well you’re doing something at least. I’m trying to get my adhd diagnosed after my mom refused when I was a kid, and I’ve been self medicating my whole life with caffeine and weed, unaware I even could have this disorder.

I thought it was just being a hyperactive kid — that wasn’t me. But then I learned about all the symptoms as an adult. Yup, I’ve got ‘em all, like friggen ash catchem. I feel like a lot of adults failed me here but I’m not blaming anyone, even my mom. She had the best intentions but didn’t trust the “medical industrial complex” as she called it.

Somehow I’ve managed all this time by placing myself in environments where my executive function isn’t impaired (I dunno if that’s even the correct terminology), but now I’m in a job where I can barely function leading people to get upset with me, and I don’t know what to do. I’ve been trying to get a diagnosis for over a year, and fiiiiiinally I have something on the books for November. It’ll be over $1000 out of pocket and I have excellent insurance. Top notch.

Anyway, this is just to say keep fighting the good fight. Don’t know if I’ll use your service but I’ll consider it after I get my diagnosis.
the amount of money they charge you for basically a nice looking jenkins is crazy.
You're not testing for "basic math skills" here. What you're testing for is more like "immediately retrieves an irrelevant math fact after many years of having no need to think about it."

Look, if you think this sort of thing allows you to identify great candidates, good for you. But in my experience, not only is this kind of practice stupid on its face, but it leads to engineering orgs packed with people who are good at memorizing trivia but terrible at solving real problems.
What's not sustainable? Low infrastructure cost because they don't use expensive and custom rails. Infinitely flexible because they connect any two points on any schedule. Low operating cost because there are no human operators and they are mainly based on commodity vehicles. Rides could be subsidized for low income and would be a huge timesaver for things like grocery trips. They don't currently work well for extreme surge like concerts and sporting events, but there could still be custom shuttle buses for that. The technology isn't here yet, and it sucks that only one vendor is close, but it seems very promising.

Dark Horse Podcast

This guy?

https://www.wweek.com/news/2023/07/05/local-covid-vaccine-sk...

Weinstein, host of the DarkHorse Podcast, spent almost three hours talking to the scion of the Kennedy dynasty, who says childhood vaccines are linked to autism, Sirhan B. Sirhan didn’t kill his father, 5G cell towers are being built to control our behavior, and Anthony Fauci and Bill Gates conspired with Big Pharma to profit from COVID vaccines. (None of these claims is true.)

Weinstein, a former professor at The Evergreen State College, became a right-wing celebrity during the pandemic after going on Joe Rogan’s podcast and touting a livestock medicine called ivermectin as a cure for COVID, a claim that has been disproven by multiple studies (“Drug & Pony Show,” WW, Sept. 15, 2021), including one described in the Journal of the American Medical Association in October.

Honestly this is one of those times when ranting is wholly appropriate.

All I could think while looking for a little mental health support this past year as a relatively wealthy and high functioning person was "god, what in the actual hell do people who are a lot sicker and a lot poorer than me do?". Of course the tragic answer is "things just go really badly for them".

I take your point about falsification, though it seems to depend on accepting that the Darwinian theory of evolution via natural selection is itself sufficiently falsifiable to present the 'threat' of falsification to the premise in question.
Unsurprising. Even worse than the Getty situation since OpenAI knew that they trained on copyrighted books for ChatGPT without the permission from the authors rather than getting a license just like they did with Shutterstock for DALLE-2.

But what are you doing that actually is in your power to change things?

The world changes through politics, and we should do more to participate actively in it.
You're welcome to think so, but position strength is tied to facts, not posts.
SF has only enjoyed positive net domestic migration for one single year in living memory. Domestic migration is absolutely not a driver of housing costs in San Francisco. Over the last 40 years San Francisco has consistently failed to build enough housing for its endogenous population growth due to longevity and births.

> the former are too close together to give stereoscopic depth information at traffic distances

They're only too close together to give very precise depth information, but they do still provide useful depth information. They also double the incoming light and SNR, which is why the average person performs better on visual acuity tests with both eyes than with only one or the other.

> We have a camera, basically. We do lots of stuff with the camera, sure. But that's not sensor fusion.

They're varifocal cameras with very good dynamic range that receive double the light input and that also have full freedom to move around, both rotationally and translationally, which provides, among other things, more depth information and better object boundary segmentation from controlled parallax and focus, and which involves the continuously varied activation of many different muscles and sensory nerves because they're attached to the extremely complex and sensitive proprioceptive structure called the rest of your body, which your brain fully uses as input when processing visual information. And we know that your brain uses this other information, because not having this other information causes reduced perception and motion sickness.

So, no, they're not just cameras. And, yes, we do sensor fusion.
I think the conclusion is slightly wrong: they're not trying to hide the training process. They'll probably wind up vigorously defending that in court however they can, they're in big trouble if they can't train like that.

They're trying to avoid reproducing copyrighted text, which is a totally separate (and arguably more clear-cut) legal question. Input vs output.
You're right about that, it's honestly unfair for me to refer to Reddit as though it's a monolith. r/AskHistory is as good as it's ever been, r/WhatsThisBug is always fun, and lots of little niche subs are just vibrant communities.

Unfortunately when it comes to the major news subs, the big issue isn't polarizing politics, it's just people using the headline to spout memes.
Curious, what do you think about breaking the laws of authoritarian countries to save people's lives? Do you think people should be allowed to do that or not?
I don't know about incredibly low priced items (Dollar Tree), but the kjist is correct around organized shoplifting at retail.

Retailers say organized retail crime has made their theft problems only worse. Crime gangs often look to steal products from stores that can easily and quickly be resold on online marketplaces such as Amazon and through other illicit markets.

“More products today are locked up because the problem has gotten so much bigger,” said Lisa LaBruno, the senior executive vice president of retail operations at the Retail Industry Leaders Association. “Criminal actors can steal high volumes of products and sell them with anonymity.”

Retailers have supported a bipartisan bill that would require online marketplaces to verify state-issued IDs for millions of high-volume third-party sellers. President Joe Biden supports such a measure and this week also called on Congress to impose liability on online marketplaces that sell stolen goods on their platforms.

Amazon said it does not allow third-party sellers to list stolen goods and works closely with law enforcement, retailers and other partners to stop bad actors.

“We regularly request invoices, purchase orders, or other proofs of sourcing when we have concerns about how a seller may have obtained particular products,” a spokesperson said.

New housing is pretty much the only valid reason to build public transit.

Good transit is expensive. The people who already live in the area are not willing to pay enough to justify the investment. They have already figured out their lives without the transit. If you want transit, you have to build it primarily for new residents. And the costs should be covered by increased land value, usually either by taxing the land, selling it, or developing it. Trying to cover investment costs with fares just destroys the value of the investment.
This would be absolutely perfect if it worked on mobile (not open-source either so nobody but you can add it!), without mobile it's useless for me :(

Good job though, it looks nice!
If it's not easier what's the point? I could set up a chroot and do a bunch of scripting and debugging to isolate build environments or just write a dozen line Dockerfile. My time is valuable so the Dockerfile is effective and incredibly easy.
From what I've heard, the most commonly stolen items are things like chewing gum and energy drinks.

So in the cast majority of cases, probably not.
