That’s a good question. I’m not sure what the implications are yet.

It’s a complex system of cellular receptors and substances that activate them, and the receptors can become upregulated and downregulated. Histamine is also a pro-inflammatory substance.

I do better with my insomnia and autoimmune disorders if I am… attentive towards carbohydrate intake. Less sugar is better, slower carbohydrates are better. (I can reliably induce an insomnia awakening at precisely 05:30 by eating dessert after dinner. I’m not yet sure why or how exactly, but the histamine connection makes sense. It also has to do with cortisol I believe.) However, I am also more alert and sharp if I get enough carbs – including sugar. At the right time of day.

Here’s my source for histamine being involved in glucose metabolism: Histamine metabolism in diabetes mellitus and vascular disease, dr. Dalvir Gill’s 1991 PhD thesis:
https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/eprint/10120875/

Regarding histamine as an alertness neurotransmitter, I point to early antihistamine medication being sedative. This is because early antihistamines were molecules small enough to cross the blood-brain barrier. Histamine receptors in the brain regulate alertness. As well as the hunger response, interestingly. Old allergy meds make you hungry and then you pass out.

I was a sceptic about ADHD until I read Adrian Chile's articles about his adult diagnosis [1]. I was then encouraged by those close to me to go and get checked out, and sure enough I was diagnosed (at 52). Then I learnt more about it.

The shock for me was when I filled out the screening questionnaire and mentioned to the psychologist when handing it over that "this is a waste of time, everyone would answer all these questions the same way". She gently disabused me of that notion and it turns out my answers were very different to the mean. As I became aware that most other people experienced the world very differently to me, it rocked my world.

I find the label ADHD unhelpful, personally - as you seem to. It has gone from being a pejorative label for energetic kids, to being shorthand for "I can't concentrate at the moment, give me a break", to being a middle-class lever to help your child get extra time on exams. I can't fathom this one - at school I would either finish my exam in half the time allocated, or you could give me 10 hours and it wouldn't help. What good is 30 extra minutes?

Anyway, the diagnosis has been great in helping me understand myself and others. ADHD is simply the current label for a chunk of the bell curve. There is much variation within this chunk. Neurotypicals are the big bit in the middle of the curve. I am sure that over time the definitions will become more specific and nuanced.

I don't suffer from depression anymore, seems it was simply a side effect from struggling with ADHD and "why am I incompatible with normal life".

> “ compared to a lot of the rest of the world, almost every US politician is conservative.”

As someone from the “rest of the world” I don’t know what people mean when they say that. I think this claim is based on a broad misunderstanding of, let’s be honest, Western European politics by people who’ve never voted in elections here.

I live in Switzerland, have lived or worked in the Netherlands, UK and Czechia. The liberal parts of the US are far to the left of any of those countries.

(Yes, healthcare is cheaper, except in Switzerland. It’s not a 1:1 mapping, but on questions related to drug use in the public square, I think you’d find it’s a lot less lenient here than you think.)
I do quite a bit of 6502 assembly (hobby only). And the only types of multiplications I’ve needed were either multiplying by a power of 2 (often if I’m using a data table where an entry is 2 bytes long and I need to calculate the index into the table), or multiplying by a known constant, which is solved by shift and add or a lookup table if I only ever need to multiply a small number of known values.

these kinds of details about x64 and x86 make it so hard to build something from intel or amd docs. what do you use, what do you omit, feature and instruction wise. so many ways to do the same things.. it takes a lot of experimentation and measurements to see whats efficient and whats simple to implement etc. you can peek at nix and other osses but i suppose tbat defeats the purpose of the excersize :d. anyway, nice blog all in all =) always happy to see people translate more complex constructs into the basic instructions. helps understand a lot what the cpu is actually doing.
this is probably field dependent, but I would say:

- don't focus on individual studies but try to find meta-analyses.

- if not available, then review articles.

- if not available, then individual papers.

# of citations is probably a closer proxy for influence rather than "good" (if you mean quality). Of course, one hopes that there is a strong correlation between the two.

More in the weeds would then assess the impact factor of the journal that an article is published in as well as other 'altmetrics'.
Could it not tell if it's actually managing to play and keep up with time? Similarly to how (I believe) it'll degrade if the network is such that it's not loading 4k say quickly enough, it'll switch (if 'auto') to 1080p or whatever.

> Detecting if the device has 20 cores or whatever like he says if possible would be more invasive of privacy.

What he claims though is that they do already do that at least if it's not aarch64:

> Quality 1080 by default. If your machine has 2 or fewer cores, quality 480. If anything ARM, quality 240.
This has brought back many happy memories of Machiavelli the Prince (or Merchant Prince as I believe it was called in the US, where presumably no one does European history), a late 90s DOS game in which you ran trade routes around the world. One of the key parts of the game was political intrigue in Venice, where you could bribe people to vote for you as Doge, giving you the power to hand out (or not) lucrative jobs to other players.

The big plus point for it were the extensive multiplayer options, ranging from taking turns on one computer, through to proper TCP/IP support, and play by email with the save game being passed on after each turn.

Exactly, the post even mentions that Chromium pretends to be AMD64 to get around the limitation.

In most cases this detection is "good enough", but with Asahi a new edge case has emerged. Ideally the device would be able to tell the server about it's capabilities, but that could be seen as an invasion of privacy and could quickly turn into a new metric for profiling internet users across sites.

Check out this new-ish extension for VSCode:

https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-vscod...

...IME this is a lot easier to setup than the Chrome extension (the problem in Chrome that's easy to overlook is to allow Chrome access to your source code directory, the VSCode extension doesn't require such brittle details).

The blog post I posted in a sibling comment above details how to setup VSCode so that debugging works by just pressing F5 in VSCode like it would work for natively compiled code.
This was part of the 'efficiency' drive. Many cities added or merged with lots of the subburbs. And then those subburbs control policy.

Torronto is a perfect example. It was merged into Greater Torronto, and those new areas are what led to Trumpist style Rob Ford being elected.

And its also zoning. Its always surprising to me how in the US people don't live in the cities. In Europe, the city center are very lived in. The downtown can't turn into a ghost town, even if everybody works from home.
You can debug the original code by providing a map file (compiler generated) that allows you to let the WebAssembly runtime know how to map WASM bytecode to the source code. It works really well.

I've seen the TSA pre-check line be longer than the regular TSA line recently. I think there has been a big push to get folks into pre-check, including opening up more interview places and making it less of a pain in the ass to get. It's all a money grab at the end of the day.

It's not exactly "cancelled" per se, and you need to look at the correct place (which indeed takes time to learn...).

At the beginning there was an Internet-Draft [1] proposing the use of invalid UTF-8 sequences, with an initial intention to be used in the Application Configuration Access Protocol (RFC 2244). Take a look at that---it is really horrible if you think about that. Nevertheless the proposal was significant because it demonstrated needs for "lightweight language tagging" and a more reasonable proposal was developed in the Unicode Technical Committee [2], which resulted in the current Tags block.

Since they were meant to be used only when there is no other markup method, though, it was "born 'strongly discouraged'" from the beginning [3]. The current "deprecated" status is rather a formal confirmation of this position---[3] even clarifies that they are "indicated as 'strongly discouraged', but reserved for use with special protocols", and Unicode never removes once allocated code points, so Unicode can't do anything more about deprecated characters. Still, the intent is that you should use correct `lang="..."` attributes whenever applicable.

[2] https://www.unicode.org/L2/L1997/97255r.pdf#page=4

[3] https://www.unicode.org/L2/L2001/01301-deprecation.txt

> Don't get it, you'd have different rules apply depending on the language tags, why would you need multiple codepoints?

That means you need to first locate all language tags before doing anything, which is wasteful. Almost all Unicode operations are designed to function with only local contexts in comparison.
Public drug use is something that I've never seen in Bavaria. Altough you'll be able to find it if you know where to look.

Seriously though, leftist cities like Berlin have the same problems as the US, although on a much smaller scale. It's what D. Trump would call an shithole. Bavaria is clean, because we enforce a restrictive drug policy.

As for homeless, we've got some, but they're voluntarily so. The shelters don't accept alcohol, drugs nor dogs. They gather far away from any business/residintial area. (In my local town, under a bridge between a river and an animal shelter.)

This. It isn't productive to think about this like "Google lost, Epic won" or "Google lost, Apple won".

Hacking Happiness by Doing One Small Thing a Day
That's nothing. I once lived next to a colony of industrious critters, who practically carpeted over a millennia old habitat to lay down refined rocks that they periodically dug up and relaid just so that they could haul more refined rocks through the habitat without stopping, usually on these large wheeled containers that sporadically would kill everything in sight. Was a nightmare to live there.
We don’t have to get lost in philosophical questions of human worth here. We’re talking about addicts, not stay-at-home moms or other non-tax payers.

Maybe pathological addicts are also productive in some ways that we don’t appreciate? In any case: saying that addicts are “non-productive” does not imply that stay at home moms, poor artists, or retirees are unproductive (etc. etc.).

Brain Out Cross Logic
I'm rephrasing another person's statement to clarify what (I believe) they meant.

Separately, that's kind of a gross choice of comparisons.
Figuring out good defaults for this is really hard. In general, "Linux + aarch64 = lower performance = let's do lower resolution by default" seems like a reasonable thing, although not fool-proof obviously. Also note that the "is_arm()" is followed by "|| is_android()"-bit in his screenshot.

Asahi Linux is a comparatively small project with few real users. It's pretty arrogant to assume Google is intentionally targetting them specifically.

If anything, the bug here is that Chromium uses x86 on arm systems, although for Asahi specifically that's probably the right choice, it's a lot less clear to me that's the right choice for all systems.
Cargo Cache Cleaning
I rarely carry my cell phone. I often even don’t know where it is. For telling time, I have an F-91W. It does a great job at that (except for when it’s dark, the silly light only barely illuminates the left side of the screen). I don’t know how long the battery lasts, but it’s been working for years.

Christ, I’ve been visibly publicly intoxicated with hard drugs on a number of occasions (many years ago) while holding down a respectable middle class professional job (and being good at it!). If I’d been forced into months(!!) of rehab I’d have lost my job and had to move cities and/or change industries (it’s a small world and people talk).

And the scariest thing (for me personally) is that even if I knew that was a potential outcome, I don’t think it would have stopped me. And I wasn’t a junkie or hopeless addict by any means.

You might argue that it's the alcohol doing the zombification but I posit that surely the tobacco also has something to do in this equation.
Yes, but you'd want your per-frame code to be called as early as possible after a swap so that your code has as much time as possible to do work without missing the next swap (YMMV of course if there's a pipeline of buffered frames waiting for presentation - but this should be kept low to reduce button-to-screen latency).
The programme in Portugal requires people to check in with the authorities, seek treatment and move off the street corner. It by most accounts worked ok for a while, but downtown Lisbon started to look pretty bad recently, and I think they’ve been backpedaling a bit.

In Amsterdam, the drug tourism made the city hard to live in, and the authorities have largely cleaned it up now. Weed is a special case, but using anything else on the street will warrant a check-in from the cops.

Barely related. I set out to do this year’s advent of code in Turbo Pascal in honor of its 40th anniversary (there was an HN story a few weeks ago)

TP was my language for AP computer science in high school and I felt good about it. The current FreePascal implements features a dos-looking IDE that worked almost seamlessly over SSH and gave it a nice retro feel.

But the retro feel got old after a few days. I found my TP solutions to advent of code verbose. Just the amount of typing you had to do to achieve what can be a python 2 liner was astounding in retrospect. I don’t often think about the programming efficiency of languages themselves but man I didn’t have time to do AOC in TP but I do have time to do it in python.
