One thing a therapist told me during a session one time is: "It sounds like your life just sucks right now". It isn't always something internal, but the outside world impacting us. Chin up, do it for your son, best of luck my man.
I like axel for that.

What about a large percentage of the world born into poverty and barely making a living? I'm sure a lot of people will take a state school degree and think working a job at amazon is pretty awesome or you can compare yourself to newton and feel like an absolute nobody (even if you are a great scientist in your own right). Point is, there are always people to compare yourself to to feel bad, it is never ending.
I maintain that there’s no such thing as a true exponential function in the actual physical universe. Every one of them is a sigmoid function in disguise, that you may or may not be in the early phase of.
The whole point I'm making is that it is permanent. That's the whole issue I'm talking about here. It doesn't go away. Ever.

If yours goes away when you stop taking SSRIs, then you aren't suffering PSSD (post SSRI sexual dysfunction) in the first place.
That argument is about as strong as "oh you like retribution? That means you support <vile torture / mutilation>!"

Deliberately confounding "reasoning for choice of punishment" and "severity/extremeness of punishment" and "other moral guidelines outside the 'punishment-reason-axis' that inform the option-space of punishment" is obvious rhetorical trolling, who cares what the precise "fallacy-name" is for this sort of behavior.

Now that I think about it from the other end, I don't see how "hurting their family" is excluded from "retributive justice" solely by the definition of "retributive" either. It's been treated as a perfectly valid act of retribution in many cultures across history (and the present day, probably) - see every story about feuding clans killing each others members; they don't do that because they think it's going to dissuade the other clan from enacting their own vengeance in turn.
This article is a few years old but it compares both really well:

https://adamj.eu/tech/2019/04/03/django-versus-flask-with-si...

Flask works for simple projects but as your needs grow, the built-in and extensive Django ecosystem will have you covered. And as seen above, Django in its simplest form is no more complex.

Some people really don't like the Django ORM, so in this case you might avoid Django altogether. It's possible to use Django without its data layer but it's a big part of its value.

Also if you are building a pure API project, FastAPI is worth checking out for a streamlined process. Django Rest Framework works too, but is an extension.

Here is a detailed Fortune article from 2019: https://archive.vn/bBzYV
So what are we using? Godot? Did the Linux Foundation turn Cryengine into something usable yet?
That's interesting; I hadn't heard of that before. No idea if it would work.
But he's right, it is morally praiseworthy to make wrongdoers suffer. Humans have known this for millenia, we know it deep in our bones. Murderers, rapists, thieves all deserve to suffer.
This feels like a pretty obvious door-in-the-face tactic.
Hm? USB4 is based on Thunderbolt spec.
Wait, so the station has tracks to both east and west, yet it's used like terminus? That makes sense only for bureaucrats...
> What does that mean in practice? Imagine a hypothetical scientist that is fundamentally confused about something important, so all hypotheses they generate are false. Yet, using p=0.05, 5% of those hypotheses will be "confirmed experimentally". In that case, it is not 5% of the "experimentally confirmed" hypotheses that are wrong -- it is full 100%. Even without any cherry-picking.

Well, that's example is also introducing dependence, which is a tricky thing of course whenever we talk about chance and stats.

But there's also another issue - a statement like "5% of positive published results are by chance since we have a p<=0.05 standard" treats every set of results as if p=0.05, whereas some of them are considerably lower anyway. Though the point of bad actors cherry-picking to screw up the data also comes into play here.

(And of course, fully independent things in life are much harder to find than one might think at first.)
Looking at it from $/min you use the device or utility/$ that you get, these phones and laptops are far cheaper than many, many other luxury purchases people buy, such as restaurants, alcohol, or movie tickets.
I am reminded of Blu-ray discs with "unskippable" ads before the beginning of the program.

Of course the endgame - which we already see - is embedded video ads and product placement. "Hey youtube I'm going to provide the 10 second answer you were searching for, but first let me tell you how to lose money fast with crapcoin..." I was going to say that music doesn't have that yet but I'm not sure that is the case.
I absolutely love black currants. I stay in St. Lawrence Marine Park during summer and there are few bushes there with delicious berries I being the only predator. Adding leaves to tea is also very good recipe.

But it is a weak version of his opponents position, empowered by the fact his argument is pathetic: "unless you commit to maximal deterrence then you don't really believe in deterrence".

It's a slippery slope fallacy variant: "if you have laws to deter actions by individuals, then why not have laws which might create greater deterrence" - and then simply assumes all other considerations can be handwaved away.

If the argument: "the psychological harm of knowing there is famine is bad, therefore we should simply kill all people suffering from famine..." sounds ridiculous to you, then so should this person's argument because it's doing the exact same trick.

That's not withstanding the utterly absurd "opposite" he constructs his position as: "I believe in creating suffering as a morally noble goal" is not some sort of counter-argument, it's just him arguing for his own sociopathy in pretty-prose.
Same. I even prefer the Tabasco to the original. Tastes every so slightly more 'peppery', every so slightly less sweet.
There is a really good technical reason for that, and honestly, I don't want to use extensions that aren't being maintained as new versions of Shell get released.

The reason Gnome doesn't have a stable extensions API is the same reason extensions are powerful: extensions are user code running in the same JS environment as Shell and can do anything. I think that's a decent tradeoff for a best-effort system without a ton of manpower and ecosystem involvement.
The messaging from Unity around this has been completely confusing. They use different terms and don’t define them in various places throughout the announcement and FAQ.

How do people even come up with claims like these?

Any evidence besides you just decided it?
I do not believe this perspective is supported by evidence.
It’s more about the difference in magnitude of the lenses. This also gives you depth information when combined.
I’ve been reflecting on this a lot lately. Thinking over Chernobyl, Fukushima, and so many business scandals, I think this is the right way to run any organization, public or private. You just can’t have individuals encountering real issues of substance to the business without any voice to raise them to the highest levels of management. Moreover, I don’t know how any executive could expect to try and steer a behemoth of an organization when their only visibility into the business is at such a low resolution owing to the oversimplification baked in through so many reporting layers.
I know this? I think you replied to the wrong comment.
The X11 maintainers said as much, then created Wayland?
why in that era was it common lisp, or common business oriented language?

Were there uncommon languages? Was is a naming hack to make it more accepted, maybe like basic was used when naming visual basic?

or was it something like "common" as in common denominator?

> Don’t tell me these tactics don’t work.

I'd like to see a citation they do work.

E.g., something tells me "preventative" unreported domestic violence would rise. If the increase is high enough it could easily be argued that the tactic hasn't worked but instead just pushed crime out of the public eye. (Or potentially increasing overall violence.)

Edit: also, probably shifting the violence toward the youth as they don't have the same impulse control as the adults. Good luck, future generations!

Double edit: IIRC the vast majority of studies on corporal punishment state that it increases the likelihood of aggression in the child as they develop. So double good luck, future generations!!
> And yeah, some creditors will do pay-for-delete in which case you may be fine.

Pay for delete is paying to have it removed from your credit file by the data provider (either the creditor or their debt collector). This is distinctly different. You pay the debt and provide confirmation the debt was paid. Whether it is still on your credit file is immaterial to close. It's paid? You close.

Fannie Mae guidelines, for example:

> Granted, they don't have Nintendo's games

Didn't Nintendo appear on stage at the 2016 keynote event to announce Nintendo's foray into mobile gaming (on 3rd party hardware, anyway) with Super Mario Run? And didn't Apple add native support for the Switch Pro and Joycon controllers to iOS 16 last year? Nintendo has always hated being in the hardware business...
Not that surprising. A universe without predictable laws would be unlikely to host life. I mean physics really only knows how to do statics and oscillations and those things work because many systems are at equilibrium or just slightly perturbed from it, probably because of the mysterious low entropy condition which defines the past.
> I think punishing families would probably work very well for deterrence,

Why?

This is not even a slightly obvious statement. In fact it broadly fails because most individual punishments already, due to the nature of familial relations, do punish families both directly and indirectly.
I for one don't understand how sustainability and a yearly release schedule can go hand in hand. Why isn't it a 2 or 3+ year release cycle? Remove the need to upgrade, make spare parts and reuse and recycling more common. Maximize lifespan of devices.

Yearly upgrades of consumer electronics is a pretty non-sustainable idea. Imagine if every year everybody tossed their television, monitor, computer, phone, tablet, headphones, speakers and all their other smart devices into a landfill and bought new ones. Now realize this actually happens with phones in some cases and batteries in almost all cases.
Maybe schools could rent out their empty rooms to the private schools and share common resources. Kind of like "educational infrastructure as a service". I'm only half joking, I've seen some real examples of this: elementary school/alternative school, high school/deaf-only school, high school/adult school. The buildings were divvied up, and the admin and everything else was a different organization. The only complicated thing was having to have separate entrances for each and locked doors inside so students can't pass from one side to another.
Well my personal case is basically just that I had undiagnosed Attention deficit disorder, my grades and stuff suffered from it, deppression really started during covid though because I kept gaining weight as I drink too much soda and they basically banned going outside for months, ended up at 100kgs and brain fog and stuff just got even worse, ADD also got worse with weight gain.

I did however manage to recover because I got supplements (vitamins/minerals) and I think those helped me enough that I managed to stop drinking soda for a while, only tea first then water and when I lost about 20kgs, my deppression went away.

I stopped taking vitamins after I ran out for a while and I gained weight again, so I definitely think it's something I have a deficit of.

Nowadays I am diagnosed so I take concerta, but I also take additionally the supplement (vit/min) and additionally taurine (since I saw the benefits of supplements myself not gonna lie that I am biased about them, so now I saw the study that claimed that it might help prolong your life so I said why not since it's extremely cheap and just bought a 400 pills of taurine).

Is my ADD "cured"? no, but I do notice that I am somewhat more productive when I take it than not, you can't really feel the concerta, like you can a drug, it's mostly just that you without noticing lack a bit of that self restriction you have to doing mental tasks when you have ADD.

The majority of consumers don't do anything that needs more than 2.0 speeds and 30Wish charging. If they do, they can probably afford name brand cables.

In the next few years consumers will start getting laptops that need 60W, but most cables can do that now, and it won't be common for a few years now(Phones still had microUSB when I bought my laptop, many people have even older ones).

Per the article:

> For some commentators, the recent downfall of the chemical imbalance theory has cast doubt on the use of existing antidepressant drugs, which were meant to restore the lost serotonin. Yet the data certainly suggests that they work better than placebos – and the authors of these two new books can explain why. For Nord, it is because antidepressant drugs help to correct the fundamental biases in someone’s perceptions of the world. This change occurs incredibly quickly. People with depression are more likely to see anger, and less likely to see happiness, in neutral facial expressions – but in many patients, this tendency begins to disappear after they have taken just one antidepressant pill. Gold, meanwhile, points to studies showing that our current antidepressant pills encourage the birth of new brain cells and neural connections, which would help people to break free of the hyperactive stress response.

Interesting. I hadn’t heard of PSSD.

From https://annals-general-psychiatry.biomedcentral.com/articles...

> A 19-year retrospective cohort analysis was conducted using a computerized database of the largest HMO in Israel. ED was defined by phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors prescriptions. 12,302 males aged 21–49 met the following criteria: non-smokers, no medical or psychiatric comorbidities or medications associated with ED, no alcohol or substance use.

> SAs were associated with an increased risk for ED (cOR = 3.6, p < 0.000001, 95% CI 2.8–4.8), which remained significant after adjusting for age, SES, BMI, depression and anxiety (aOR = 3.2, p < 0.000001, 95% CI 2.3–4.4). The risk for PSSD was 1 in 216 patients (0.46%) treated with SAs. The prevalence of PSSD was 4.3 per 100,000.

4.3 per 100k is lower than the US murder rate (6.8 per 100k). You’re right that it’s a consideration, but it seems pretty rare.

In my bathroom I have a fan that stays on for 1/2 hour in the morning. I set my razor in front of it so it dries every morning. Supposedly the blade will last much longer. I kinda think so but don't have a really definite data set yet.

I also have them for the lights and bubbler on my aquarium (I think the bubbler should be off at night for 6 hours or so. Let's the fish sleep).

The restrictions apply to basically only Apple and Google.

Airports work this way because they’re obscenely large. Train stations don't have this issue, especially in NYC where the rail yard is underground. Why would we move the primary intercity train station outside the city when its main advantage over flying is its proximity to the actual city itself?

Observation of friends, co-workers, family, and the general public?
It mostly comes down to manufacturing processes. When you compare 5nm Apple hardware to 5nm hardware from other competitors, the power/performance disparity closes significantly. Since Apple is the biggest though, they can out-spend anyone else who tries to buy out the latest node right now. This has been the case since 2020, and seems to still hold true.
Your glass is half empty. There are businesses you can start for under $1000, you may not personally be aware of them, but they exist (the business I own was started with much less than this amount in 2016 & has delivered decent returns with part-time hours since, no particular skills other than basic English & hard work required). Obviously you will need to spend time over your nominated 50 hour a week time commitment, why is this impossible? If you want to build wealth you need to put in the time. I don't recall claiming any of this was easy.

I guess some elements of capitalism need people with your defeatist outlook, to be lifelong wage slaves.
Same. Just so they pass the savings on.

> The problem Unity have created is if something can be made with Unity it will get crowded out with clones in five minutes.

This really has nothing to do with Unity. Flappy Bird could have been built on any platform and you would still have a million clones of it. Because it takes a day to make it. It's just as easy to clone that game in Unreal Engine, fwiw.

Unity didn't create the concept of the quickly built game, nor is Unity responsible for society incentivizing this type of game dev. If anything, the new runtime fees will disincentivize this type of game, so maybe that's a good thing?

I’m not sure where I come down on the topic but I’m absolutely not convinced by “we know it deep in our bones” as reasoning. For millennia people have known the existence of God(s) deep in their bones, does that mean atheists are wrong?
What if it's a game without a quest log? Achievements are just a universal framework for this kind of thing. So developers don't have to reinvent the wheel with every game. Sounds like the kind of standardization that is a good thing for everybody involved, except for the gatekeepers who only want hard "achievements".
During the process of replacing old processes with new ones, it’s hard to know what aspects of the traditional process (in this case, books and writing) are more valuable than understood. It seems like we are making a step in the right direction, but I wonder how we will prevent ourselves from making this and similar mistakes in the future.
