Regulation is aligning incentives - companies dont want to pay a fine so they do what you want them to.

What doesn't work is setting things up so the company benefits from the thing you don't want them to do, and then being surprised when the inevitable happens.
> As someone who grew up in the 80s, this type of minimization of personal suffering was the norm. “You don’t know how good you have it” despite real mental and physical health struggles.

That's not what I was suggesting. My point was that many people do have real mental health struggles (I mentioned nothing about physical health at all), but that the trend is to elevate minor struggles into much larger issues.

The book associated with the linked video has drawn heavy criticism among psychologists for this reason. It's an inherent tradeoff in making a book appeal to a mass market and targeting the best-seller list. You don't get there by writing about how extreme trauma is rare and extreme. You get there by trying to normalize the concept and stretch it to apply to as many readers (and therefore, customers) as possible.

> I remember the first time I saw a therapist she thought I may have PTSD. I thought she was nuts and never went back. It took me another decade to realize that ...

I'm sorry for your experience, but I didn't mean to downplay your particular mental health struggles as nothing. I don't think anyone would argue that what you're describing is not deserving of therapy or treatment, and I certainly didn't want to imply that.

What I was trying to describe is a new phenomenon where some people read books and recast their own minor stresses on to the level of what you'd described. For example, some students described merely having lived through COVID or the Trump presidency as severely traumatic experiences for them. At one point a group of them that it was inconceivable that society just expected us to continue operating during a pandemic, which to them was the most traumatic thing they could imagine.

Another famous podcast-circuit psychology influencer (Dr. Gabor Mate) pushes a theory that being born is a traumatic experience that incurs some level of PTSD.

Once the threshold for "trauma" has been lowered to the point that literally everyone who has ever existed qualifies, it starts to lose meaning.

> HTML is not the mother language

Personally I just don't like when people go too much into "<lang> in <lang>" mentality. HTML is decent at describing what's there. CSS is sort of fine at describing how it looks. And JS is ok for describing what should happen.

My second guiding principle is that everything should be split into composable components, without anything being privileged. So I don't like page components being special in any way.

I can excuse some violations of the first principle in the service of the second one like putting a bit of HTML into JS file instead of keeping separate HTML template file for each component. But I don't really like any CSS in JS. The only connection surface between CSS and JS (and HTML) should be selectors that say what is addressed. CSS classes should identify elements. If you want some classes that describe groups of styles (like tailwind) you can have them but don't cram them directly into HTML. Include them in styles for given element using SASS (or LESS) include functionality. HTML (or JS) shouldn't describe how things look.

Also all the frameworks that claim to be almost pure HTML but they cram the adhoc behavior description into fake HTML attributes rub me the wrong way. They remind me of what was there 20 years ago.

And any reactive bindings between arbitrary stuff is just ordering whole bowl of old time spaghetti, after Redux (and React) shown that it doesn't have to be like that anymore.

I agree that additional challenge of keeping the flow of state centralized and unidirectional might feel unnecessary for simple projects, but it's worth it if the project survives more than few years and grows.

You didn't get agreement from over 90% of people. That's not at all what it says.
You agreed with the majority 90% of the time.
If you don't understand the huge difference, let me illustrate an easier to understand example.
Suppose 1000 people answered 1000 questions, and all answers individually are in a 50.1% vs 49.9% split.
There's essentially no agreement at all in the group, but you got a 90% score yourself, simply by siding with the 50.1% majority on 90% of the questions.
Suppose also all 1000 people each choose a unique set of the 100 to dissent about.
So, you're in agreement with exactly 0%, the group itself essentially agreed about nothing, yet you still scored a 90%.
> Like the question isn't really "is X bad in an objective way" but more "did X create a bunch of problems for so and so that make their life harder in terms of emotions, psychology, etc."

From the book itself, trauma is more closely defined as “what causes the sympathetic nervous system (fight or flight) to overreact” which then causes the body to have to deal with the excess cortisol released by the overreaction. This can be the accumulation of micro-stressors or individual major events. OP’s dismissal of things due to being “common life events” is simply ridiculous.
A converse to this is "Don't be the person that gets a new rule named after them." I find this one interesting. It's a meta-rule that actually aims at the spirit of the rules. (And requires a violation or meta-violation to come into effect.)
I also don't get it. I worked there for 8 years. I'm southern european and there was always a "half joke" about our lazyness. But we worked the hardest. My local colleagues were incredibly entitled and produced very little value.

In my opinion, Germany was at some point at the top of the world in most aspects, and the people became complacent over time. Which leads us to where we are today. Enshittification is palpable in every single aspect of society. No one cares about doing a good job anymore. Getting something done takes months where it should take days. And then that thing you got done breaks in a few weeks.

It's a pretty unreasonable request. Unless parent, after noticing the trend, began to keep track of each instance in order to write a blogpost or something, they're not going to recall any unless there's a particular stark and irksome example that they still can't access.

Personally I agree. This is getting harder and harder to do. Often there's a way to finally find the rss if you dig enough, but I remember cracking out a web inspector in the last year to do it.

This is effectively blocking 99% of people from pulling these things out of walled services, which is the important question, not whether it is technically feasible to retrieve.

Even ignoring that anecdote, if someone has to find a "convert iTunes link to RSS" website, it relies on them even knowing what RSS is, knowing that iTunes podcasts have an underlying RSS feed powering them, etc.

RSS used to be something that only the marginally more literate than usual understoof how to use, and was ubiquitous. But if this trend continues, it'll be more akin to plan files.

> Some other people lose their favorite toy as an kid and it really does become a deep rumination pattern of traumatic loss for them.

In this case, the "trauma" is virtually irrelevant, though. The issue is the rumination and pattern of overreaction, which should certainly be addressed.

For some, the obsession with "trauma" becomes a way to move the focus to something external, which is therefore out of their control. In your example, too much focus on "trauma" as an explanation for everything could mislead someone into thinking that the loss of the toy is to blame for their situation, whereas they really need to accept that their reaction and pattern of rumination is what needs to be addressed.
Not sure if we’re talking past each other; I’m not arguing that “all” cases can be covered, nor whether rules have to be interpreted. I agree with you that simple rules are better, which is why I tried giving an example of one that is much simpler than your example (“no motor vehicles in the park below 400 ft AGL”). Yes it’s clear that you can, if you want, construct a very long and complicated list, but that doesn’t prove anything, right? Most parks and swimming pools and gyms have a longer list than your example. What would be interesting, and what I wish the ‘no vehicles in the park’ author had done, is measuring how much better adding 1 word or 5 words or 100 words is compared to leaving the rule super vague. I would predict there’s easy low-hanging fruit with just a few words that would correct the majority of their trick questions, and then diminishing returns with a longer and longer list. A carefully worded middle ground is probably going to best balance trying to maximize conciseness and simplicity and clarity while minimizing confusion.

That said, your example rule list above, if it was used for ‘no vehicles in the park’, would undermine the author’s point and answer most of the questions definitively without confusion. Your example would demonstrate that adding rules increases clarity and reduces confusion.

No, Git's object store was not designed to hold large binary blobs, and no implementation of Git in any language can change this. It's a reasonable request; I mean, Git doesn't even deal with "pretty small" binary files very well, either. But it's all simply a consequence of its design that was thought up all those years ago.

The core object storage model and data format (and many, many things on top of those) have to be changed/extended/fixed first, but it's realistically an immense change, so git-lfs and other various solutions are about as good as it'll get in the mean time.

> there were tons of college students enjoying coffees and beers and pizza.

So what are High School students supposed to do? They often don't have the money to go spend to hang out someplace, and even if they did, can they actually get there? Maybe with an hour of transit time each way or with a friend's parent who can drive them.

The complaint of "I don't have anything to do without my phone" is probably coming from a younger group than College Students in general.
I think this is overstating the problem by comparing unique bundles of policy opinions, rather than looking at agreements on a per-policy basis. Out of 27 policies in the game, 20 policies had overwhelming support (>70% agreement) one way or another [1]; those are obvious candidates for moderation rules. And of the seven controversial policies, there was still >60% agreement on five. There's certainly room to disagree on the controversial policies, but I think painting this as meaning there's less than 10% agreement overall, or that moderation is impossible, isn't really accurate. Most people agreed on most things.

After all, we live in a society where we have ambiguous rules like these all over the place. Occasionally someone will get a weird-seeming enforcement action, or a weird-seeming lack of enforcement (compared to what the rules say — for example, while it might seem weird that SF does not punish thieves for under $900 of stolen goods from a common sense perspective, it isn't weird from a letter of the law perspective: that's the actual law); but in my opinion that's fairly rare per-capita.

But maybe I'm biased since I had 100% agreement per-policy with the majority ;)

> Someone I think who does a really good job of distinguishing actual trauma (something that disrupts development) from acquired entitlement etc is Gabor Mate

Gabor Mate is extremely charismatic, but IMO he's part of the problem.

The last time I listened to a podcast where he was a guest, he pushed the idea that being born could qualify as trauma leading to PTSD in adulthood. He told a story about a patient with mental health issues where he was unable to identify overt trauma until despite going through her life in fine detail. Eventually he concluded that it must have been the experience of being born that was her trauma.

This is what I was talking about when someone pushes the "trauma explains everything" angle: When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail. Some of these pseudo-experts may be good at treating trauma, but they take it too far and start trying to describe everything big or small as a trauma.

It's html plus adhoc behavior description language. Behavior does not belong in HTML. You shouldn't have full programming language in HTML. And if you do, at least use existing language not make your own.

Since all of this is client side (and display: none; is the best you can do in terms of not revealing everything to the user anyways) you don't even need any behavior language in HTML. Just set classes to elements and manipulate them with the framework from outside.
