Yes, 100% to both the REPL and image-based development!

Janet's REPL has a debug mode, but I'm sadly not qualified to evaluate whether/how it measures up to CL's due to my own inexperience with either. :)

As for restarts (I had to Google around to get an idea of what that means)—it seems to me that Janet does not have first-class support for restarts in the way that some other Lisps, for e.g. CL, do. Presumably (as it would be in most other languages I would suppose) one could recreate that experience in Janet by tapping into the first-party error handling and REPL primitives. But you'd definitely be rolling your own rather than having it already in Janet out of the box.
This site is served over TLS for me, and I don't see HTTP-only sites as a trend, but there are a couple reasons to forego SSL:

1. Decentralization

2. Better performance

Opting out of SSL is fine for static sites that don't handle any kind of authentication.
Wait.. a headline written entirely for sensationalism, that in fact misleads the reader solely in an effort to gain click revenue, in today's media world?

Perish the thought.
Ask HN: ADHD is ruining my life. Please help
I'm a college senior who historically did well. Straight As in high school while holding down internships. That changed starting in college. Grades gradually slipped. My motivation got worse. I'd always procrastinated but behavior deteriorated to the point that I got Cs in some classes and have little motivation to attend classes.

I should be able to handle the work. My focus isn't even bad. But task initiation is killing me. E.g. I did fine at my internship this summer but only cause I was baseline that much better that I could put off the work and complete it very quickly.

Similarly, I don't reach out to network/maintain relationships like I should. And small tasks tend to slip through the cracks.

Here's the issue:

1. I live in a smaller southern college town where no good or even semi-decent therapists have openings for approximately the next forever.

2. I am deathly scared of the side effects of amphetamines. They really don't look like long-term solutions.

Some other options I've thought about: PPAP/BPAP (catacholaminergic modulators, i.e. instead of raising dopamine baseline they increase the amount released upon stimulation), NDMA antagonists (improve dopamine sensitivity short- or medium-term), and bromantane (increases tyrosine hydroxylase expression -> downstream more dopamine).

Anyway anything y'all can suggest would be hugely appreciated and might help keep me from spiraling nto total failure :/

Edit: re amphetamines, clarifying comment on why I'm so wary: The biggest reason isn't even sides, it's longevity. Tolerance builds pretty quickly and it seems like everyone I know on them is taking a solidly higher dose than at the outset. Almost smacks of the "pseudo-addiction" rhetoric out of purdue.
Correspondence, keeping records and making appointments are attention destroying activities.

For a few year stretch I worked with a team project manager who wasn't technical at all. She'd setup the meetings that I needed to have, diligently take notes in those meetings and then we'd get together to recap everything figure out dates and all that. Then I'd get back to nerding out but with a ordered punch list that I knew Donna needed me to get done.
It was the best.

But the pmo wanted to do things a different way so their engagement model moved from embedded PMs focused on team deliverables to individual project focus.
Now instead of Donna there to assist with correspondence, keep records, make appointments, and carry out similar tasks I had an army of fragmented Donnas each focused on their one thing and each needing oversight to understand my involvement and external dependencies.
The move probably gave the pmo a more modern feel and better reporting but it killed productivity for ADDs like me since a large portion of my time each day became correspondence, keeping records and making appointments instead of cranking out nerd units.
What you are describing is antenna polarization, not phase. It seems another reply covered phase pretty well, but yes you are correct that you can also put more than one signal into the same bandwidth - so long as you are able to disambiguate them from one another. This can be done generally by 1) sending signals at different times but on the same frequency 2) sending signals at different frequencies at the same time (multiple carriers within the same bandwidth) or 3) sending separate signals between separate antennas at the same time and frequency. Using antennas with different polarity is a crude and simple form of spatial multi access, but as it turns out, it’s not the only way. This is the trickery behind how sm-ofdm / mimo and other spatial modulations multiply their spectral efficiency, with current state of the art being around 20 bits per second per hz in 8x8 configurations.
I really don't think this article has much to do with ADHD. Work is work even if you like what you're doing. Nobody can handle the barrage of notifications and being always-online and always-available. Couple that with a job that requires focus and it's an uphill battle. Again, this is for everyone.

Everything in the article can be applied to everyone.
Because when people spend enough time rewriting things, rewrites becomes an end in itself rather than means to an end.
The EU is weird.

When companies spy on their customers/users it's a 4 million Euro fine, when member states want to track the phones of its citizens it's a human rights violation, but when the EU it self wants something similar or worse it's a question of safety.
I dislike this post because medication is only a (meaningfully large part) of managing adhd. It’s not a magic pill that solves it and if the patient doesn’t have a holistic approach that includes mindfulness, exercise, diet, managing other mental health issues, and structure - then they’re still likely to fail.

I’d encourage you to read more about adhd because a huge symptom of it is lack of long term perspective in decision making. It’s like one of the defining characteristics. Trying to dismiss that as someone being lazy or undisciplined is a damaging stereotype to spread. It’s the equivalent of telling someone with depression to snap out of it or get some sunshine
I disable the `pop up` notification and just let the counter in Ubuntu dock tick up. This lets me see that there is a message without the distracting words in my face.
Hi, author here,

> This is great! So many people in the ADHD community don't dig in enough into the 'superpower' side of it, so I'm super glad you covered that here. We can't get rid of the bad parts so I think it's extra important to lean into the good parts too.

Thanks for your comment, that's what I wanted to express. We can't run away from the bad parts, so let's try to deal with it and find some stuff to help us.
The other option is "Right To Choose" through the NHS - you ask for a referral by your GP to a private ADHD specialist.

The NHS ADHD waiting list in my region was over 6 years but using RTC, I was diagnosed in around 6 months with no extra cost and prescriptions costing the NHS standard. Places like ADHD360 and PsychiatryUK focus on high throughput / low cost so the amount of time and qualifications of the practitioners won't match hand-picking a private psychologist but you can't argue with the cost.

This is a good example as I’m sure many holocaust deniers see themselves as more informed than non-holocaust deniers
Part of that is due to how the platform plays games with appeals.

Who wouldn't be pissed off when legitimate content gets taken down, and the platform's response to evidence to the contrary is dumb looks and blank stares?
Before you start a Deleware C corp, discuss the idea with your lawyer. If you don't have a lawyer now, you will almost certainly wind up with one if you start a Delaware C corp because Delaware C corps have sophisticated filing requirements and non-trivial fines if you don't meet those requirements.

And honestly, a Delaware C corp would be "playing house." The hard work is finding customers/users not filling out forms and writing checks.

Good luck.
Still not worth it for the price tag of "free".
I mean the author in the article uses a to do list
Modern era was cannons and muskets starting with the taking of Constantinople and ending with WW1.

Postmodern era is machineguns, high explosives, tanks, planes, and now atomic bombs. Especially the last one plays a huge role in what wars even get started (think about the recent Ukraine/Russia and Israel/Palestine + Iran, and how they would (not) have happened if the ownership of the atomic weapons was reversed) - so Atomic age seems fitting ?

But then I am not sure why you would want to separate them : for instance I don't think that the postmodern relativistic physics and the ideas of moral relativism common in postmodern thinking are unrelated...

I think that one issue is when people say "modern" to mean "current", rather than "more than a century old".
The Rudge Coventry Rotary Tricycle from the Late 19th Century
james Starley – considered the “father of the bicycle.” He left Coventry Machinists Co in 1870 and, with William Hillman set up their own business. In 1876 James Starley patented the ‘Coventry Lever’ Tricycle as depicted on the Starley Memorial in Coventry.
Other hack I will put out there -- I find if I do cardio exercise 30-45 minutes or more it gives me more constant focus for a couple days.
Do you have a recording? Do you have reliable witnesses who can't be made out to be anti-cop radicals? If neither, you won't be able to do anything. If yes, talk to a lawyer.
Why the decision to release it as OSS?
People suffering from tinnitus constantly hear high-pitched sounds. For a minority of them the sound is really present (produced e.g. by the blood in the vessels near the ear), but for most of them it is an illusion produced by their brain. The latter category have no means to prove someone else they are really hearing the sound.
>But I think it's pretty clear that humans are generally invariant to this kind of prompting as well (given that they have the knowledge. More in a different comment).

I think anyone who's used Anki to learn anything will tell you reversal is by no means free.

There is no single solution to reduce the massive amount of energy subsidizes. We could however start to demand a bit more efficiency and targeted approach that more align with political will of the citizens that pays the taxes.

To put down to facts, Europe paid 172 billions in 2021 on energy subsidies. This is 54% increase since 2015. 76 billions went to renewables. Between 2019 and 2020 the amount going to renewables increased by 7%, while between 2020 and 2021 it decreased by 3%. The second largest recipient of subsidies was fossil fuel energy with 50 billions. Subsidies for nuclear has remain mostly stable since 2015, sitting at around 4 billions, but with Germany closing several plants last year it has now increased to 7 billions. (The report do not consider R&D to be subsidies, so ITER is not included).

We should not try to make things "even". We should cut fossil fuel subsidies and decommission the fossil fuel plants that operate as reserve energy. The cost of high variability in the grid should not be carried through tax money. Market forces can't be applied correctly when taxes are being funneled to fix a problem caused by using high variability energy production.

Subsidies to renewables are slowly being reduced. It is no longer a given that grid connections will be given out for free and paid by taxes. Both nuclear and renewables should also carry their own weight and not have price guaranties. Companies that need those should have the cost baked into the energy price.

A solution that is acknowledged by the European report but often overlooked is energy usage reduction and increased efficiencies.

Kevin Costner ruined the JFK story for me.

Every time I hear Kennedy's name, all I can think of is, "back and to the left...back and to the left...back and to the left....back and to the left".
In the same way fire was discovered by an anemic woman, maybe. It seems most popular among my lawyer/paralegal friends, though, and "low working memory" is not a harbinger of success in those fields.
Why is a lack of SSL a form of centralization?
Nothing in the solar system has a relative speed different enough to earth to make common timestamps different - the difference is well below leap second impacts.

As for simultaneity we already have to deal with that at the millisecond level. An event logged at 16:00:01.000 as far as LA is concerned maybe logged at 16:00:01.080 in London, or maybe at 16:00:00.920
That's me too (except I was diagnosed as a kid). Only thing that has worked reliably with me is Dexmethylphenidate, but it messes with my sleep, so I get to choose between my brain feeling like mush in the morning or playing the focus-lottery for the rest of the day.

P.S. Nice Mitch Hedberg reference
Every once in a while I grab a water cup, usually at a coffee shop, and I notice the cups smell a bit like bleach. Always struck me as weird, but I figured they wouldn't put them out that way if it wasn't safe

I might be more careful now
Can you explain more about how nutrition is an issue for you?

Would you ever consider getting your serum B6 levels tested? It’s pretty cheap and you can do it without a doctors prescription if you’re in in the United States.
Google's reverse image search was actually great until several years ago when they nerfed it. I heard they were forced to at the pressure of stock photo companies who were upset that people could find unwatermarked versions of photos with it.

There are currently no versions of reverse image search existing today that are as good as what Google was offering several years ago.
So isn’t it just a problem of measurement then?

Say you had a massive array of billions of perfect sensors in different locations, and had all the computing power to process this data, would an N year daily forecast then be a solved problem?

For the sake of the argument I’m ignoring ”external” factors that could affect the weather (e.g meteors hitting earth, changes in man-made pollution, etc)
Such a minor part of your comment, but I simply cannot focus on anything if my apps aren't all fullscreen. I have two monitors, and two applications visible at any time. Right now I have this on one screen and a non-work YouTube video on the other (Your Mom's House is a great podcast btw, especially if you already have YT premium).

I have trouble focusing, I don't think quite to the level of ADHD, but it would be so much worse if I had 4 or 5 apps on each screen.
ADHD has little to no physiological markers. As the floor of expectations for attention and executive functioning continues to rise, the rate of diagnosis increases.
I think it’s really easy to underestimate how the cards fell just right for you. It often feels like one’s own experience is common enough that successes are all our own. It leads to folks misunderstanding things like institutional racism, or the way increasing housing and education costs have fundamentally changed the experience of American dream.

I really appreciate the simple examples you give that show how the author’s timing (1965) was a great “hand” to have been dealt, and had all things been the same 50 years later the game may have played out differently.
You basically summarzied the reasoning of a Soviet working group investigating Chernobyl. The investigation is needed, because people, being occupied with the clean up, are reasonably scared and have no reason to believe government claims without a proper investigation.

Yes, I spent some time today reading official reports on Chernobyl, again. Hell, even the Soviet reports are damning for their own nuclear industry, calling out organizations, people and structural defficiencies. As is the IAEA. And none of those groups can even remotely be accussed of being anti-nuclear.
Severe adhd here. The book “tiny habits” has been life changing for me. It hasn’t solved all my problems but it’s made a massive difference
Witches do exist. Anyone who “practices witchcraft” is a witch.

That witchcraft may not work. But you could still trial someone for practicing.
>I can't imagine being so specialized that I only ever work on difficult problems within my niche and nothing else. There's always some extra query to write, some API to interface with, some tests to write... it's not a matter of being able to do it myself, it's a matter of being able to focus primarily on the stuff I need to do myself.

there might simply not be enough literature for LLM's to properly write this stuff in certain domains. I'm sure a graphics programmer would consider a lot of shader and DirectX API calls to be busy work, but I'm not sure if GPT can get more than a basic tutorial renderer working. Simply because there really isn't that much public literature to begin with, especially for DX12 and Vulkan. That part of games has tons of tribal knowledge kept in-house at large studios and Nvidia/intel/AMD so there's not much to go on.

But I can see it replacing various kinds of tools programming or even UI work soon, if not right now. It sounds like GPT works best for scripting tasks and there's tons of web literature to go off of (and many programmers hate UI work to begin with).
I asked for a list of Federal Chancellors of the Federal Republic of Germany and GPT4 included Scheel ("acting"), which makes Schröder the 8th. I often troubleshoot GPT4 replies by asking it for more context. "Is" vs "was" is interesting an find!

I liked it but it also made me think the text of the article was probably AI generated as well.
Nice. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the intellect and time it takes to adequately capture a concept or whatever it wants to communicate, but there's like a supervillainy aspect to the Bush legislation. It feels weirdly manipulative and autocratic, like they put a gun to the words/lettets' "heads" and demanded they assemble themselves correctly and extra-judicially ;) and then waterboarded them once they were in place as an extra... yeah
Maybe, that would be funny. ~7 requests per minute would be a more dev-friendly way of enforcing the same quota.
We progress towards a mix of renewables (wind, solar...) deployed at continental scale ( https://www.imperial.ac.uk/news/180592/european-cooperation-... ) , backed up by V2G ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vehicle-to-grid ) and green hydrogen ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grid_energy_storage ).

That's pretty cool.

VBA is terrific for glue code. Back in the day, before the Internet opened up the security hellmouth, ActiveX was pretty great for use cases like yours.

Early '90s, I made an in-house cost estimation app using Access 2000. It'd extract data from our MicroStation (belch!) CAD drawings to generate budgets and bill of materials. Huge time saver.

Here's a modern example:

https://softwareconnect.com/construction-management/planswif...

Cost estimation apps rely on a database of SKUs, assemblies, etc. Every entry can have dependencies, equations, etc. Like "for every 10ft of X, add 1 widget Y".

Super easy to implement with dynamic languages like LISP, where data can be code (macros). Not something Visual Basic is known for. My "one cool trick" was using VBA's built-in "eval" function equivalent.

All planets (in the same plane of relativity) agree on the length of a second. The length of a day varies - both on earth and on mars, and is meaningless for people in orbit, but a second is a second.
More irony:

- Forgetting to look at the calendar

- Forgetting to look at the to-do list -> Make a different to-do list

- Have 10+ to-do lists

- Forgetting what the to-do even refers to

- Discover emacs org mode, it can link everything together -> constantly forget emacs key bindings

- Use logseq/obsidian instead -> forget which names/links refer to projects -> have 10+ aliases referring to different perspectives of the same project

I need static types, logic programming, graph search algorithms, and a bit of AI, to help save me.

Also, it'd be nice if modern software was easier to interface with. Needs more support for deep linking and syncing. The "walled garden" approach is anathema to solutions that can help ADHDers.
I went back to RCS ($Id$) for my blog text files, so by default I get it all in UTC. That is the one thing I hate about git, it does not allow you to tag the file with ci information. So RCS tags my entries automatically.

But a non issue to me these days, I moved away from git due to changes Microsoft made after it purchased github. I am back "home" to RCS and anon ftp.
I’m surprised that people don’t taste that in the food/drink they consume off their soapy dishes. It’s a distinct unpleasant taste that I tend to over rinse somewhat just to avoid, especially with cups/mugs where transfer is maximized.
If you started using water in, like, industrial or agricultural quantities I guess the town would eventually get curious what is going on.
I assume that is how most people get through high-school and university? Intense focus on the couple days before finals / final projects. I too did that. Is that not the case or is that warning lights for ADHD?

High school you can get away with it because the course content is easier - college is much more challenging...
Just one data point but my psychiatrist said that in his in clinical experience he’s never seen the non stimulants help

That sounds like you actually might have the executive function problems that I consider ADHD. I would really reconsider being deathly afraid of amphetamines. Taking 15 mg of instant released mixed amphetamine salts is going to affect your body most likely less than a cup of coffee but it will affect your brain positively in a pretty strong manner. I'm not a doctor I'm just a person with really debilitating ADHD that mainly has issues with motivation and symptoms one might consider more depression than ADHD but I assure you it's my ADHD and it's not depression, it's a chicken and egg kind of thing, if I could stick with getting things done and being motivated then I wouldn't appear to be so withdrawn and down.
At the same time, when you let that influence you it may contribute to make the situation worse for those actually affected.
What you're describing is probably a net positive for those actually affected. More awareness and less stigma.
You can say "I consider Scheel to be Chancellor", but that isn't the same as Scheel having been a Chancellor.

I honestly don't understand why in situations with a clear ground truth there is a need to debate and why we would want machines to bungle that.
Unless you build and release on your own dev machine the local cache will usually not help you.
Hi,

Sure, I'm using Agile Task Note (https://github.com/BoxThatBeat/obsidian-agile-task-notes) for the Jira sync and for Google Calendar, I'm using obsidian-google-lookup (https://github.com/ntawileh/obsidian-google-lookup) and obsidian-google-calendar (https://github.com/YukiGasai/obsidian-google-calendar)
