This is not correct. At least not in the U.S. as a whole.

It may of course be true where you are.

The DSM does not even suggest an IQ test as part of the diagnostic.

Knowing 6+ people in several states with ADHD diagnoses (some as children, some as adults) none have had anything beyond questions with their physician… or diagnoses by a psychiatrist after starting therapy for a different issue.

Isn't the first step to problem solving, identifying the problems? What you perceive as whining may be people trying to wake Americans up to the issues in the country, since "America best" propaganda is incredibly widespread. I have plenty of friends back in Texas that believe the existence of the Houston Medical Center means America has the best health outcomes in the world. It does, for cancer, for a certain income class... but mostly, it has some of the worst in many categories among developed nations. As an example of the blindspot many Americans have.
Awesome blog, I just loved the way wrote it. And I am totally agree with you. We don't need to be perfect or try to make perfect at first attempt, the more important is to enjoy the journey and honing the skills.

The thing is, it never makes sense to fulfill the demands of a blackmailer. The reason is that no matter what you do, the blackmailer either wants something from you, or keeps collecting more blackmail material until he can get something from you. They don't actually care about leaking your stuff and even if they do, they want to maintain leverage so they don't do it all at once.
IQ tests being useful and IQ bragging or judgement being stupid are not mutually exclusive
The best systems are the points based systems where fans are rewarded for being fans. E.g. people who had seen all Chiefs games for 3 seasons would be allocated a higher chance of getting a Superbowl ticket. What you don't want is people flying in for finals and paying $10k to see just the final game.
Hamas did not kill 1200 civilians on October 7. There were ~1200 victims total in the attack. There were 274 soldiers, and 95 police or other security officers, and 764 civilians [0]. At least a few of the civilians were not killed by Hamas directly, but by IDF firing on Hamas terrorists holding them hostage [1].

Of course, each and every one of these victims is a tragedy. There are also an additional few hundred people taken hostage, another war crime by Hamas. I don't intend to minimize the hurt or excuse the terrorists. But just as much, every civilian being killed in Gaza is a tragedy and inexcusable. And there are many times more civilians killed in Gaza, even by the most conservative estimates, than the victims in Israel.

Also, while the 30+k victims in Gaza (which also include Hamas soldiers) are indeed coming from Hamas itself, there are no better numbers. The Israeli media and even official sources sometimes quote these numbers, and all external organizations that have looked into them consider them credible. Not to mention, these are only those confirmed dead, each of them identified specifically (the Hamas Palestinian Health
Ministry is publishing a list of the exact names of every victim, and not including unidentified dead or those who are missing in the numbers).

Israel has not published any list or even estimate of the casualties, except their claims for Hamas soldiers killed.

I defiantly do not want to see people's typos move the language forward, especially when it's native speakers always making the same silly mistakes, for some reason (could of, they're/their, your's, etc.).

Woa this is a great thing to hear actually. She got sick January 2022 so a bit over 2 years now. Our current fear is that this is the kind of thing where either you recover within ~2 years or it’s forever. Appreciate your story and will share with her.

Her other symptoms, particularly the fatigue, do seem to improve (though the weather and being about to be outside impacts it a lot, so she had a huge setback 2 winters in a row now), though very slowly. I like hearing that for you the brain thing has improved over time too, thanks!

Eh yes, and no. A lot of precincts don't have cybercrime resources and can't do much. Especially in the US, you'd be surprised at how little cooperation different agencies have.

Best to contact a cyber division of some sort, especially sexual harassment task forces and non-profits. They're usually able to get the ball moving. Local PDs, especially in Metro areas, simply don't have the resources. It's a sad reality.

AFAIK there's no "certifying body" that would be able to provide an external "certification".

In any case Filip Skokan has essentially made a career out of building open source OAuth stuff, so even if it's a bit humorous that he certifies his own stuff, it's likely that this implementation is one of the most compliant out there.

> Mercifully, you don't really start forming strong memories until you're about 3-4

You do. It is just childhood amnesia kicks in at some point, and you lose an access to those memories. There is no accepted explanation what happens, I personally prefer the idea, that your memory qualitatively changes in spite of language acquisition, you get another (upgraded) way to access your memory, and then you forget the old (legacy) way. I like this explanation because my own memories from the time I was ~3 yo are strange (conditionally on I could reproduce them well and not to invent things), they are almost eidetic.

But it doesn't matter to be frank, because your memories were active and accessible at some period of your life and they influenced your development already, maybe changing the development track completely. Father throwing his kind into a pool? Kid was terrified? It is a very emotional experience which is a betrayal of kid's trust, which probably will never be without limits again. It may destroy any trust to other humans as well. Though it may pass without any long term consequences also. People are unpredictable in this regard. But you'd better avoid such experiments with your kid.

> your brain is gloriously plastic until around 23, so, to say 'that's the kind of trauma that stays with someone for their whole life' isn't really the case.

Some things a sticky. If they are strong enough to change behavior at once, if the changed behavior becomes a habit, then habit will enable trauma to resist any brain's plasticity and ability to heal.

And you know, it may be a very rational thing for a kid to stop trusting his father if the father can throw the kid into water just so without any thought of how kid will feel. Probably the kid should be wary around his father.
Very cool life advice that I can personally resonate with very much. I also kept these damn scrolls, and managing the inventory was a task on its own, due to them taking up so much space.
Erh, where in the world?
That's what we do here in Norway. They introduced a law saying you can't resell tickets for more than the original purchase price.
When the pandemic hit airplane manufacturers, suppliers and airlines feared a future of limited air travel, leading to them reducing capacity.
Ironically Airbus, being a European country operating mostly in Germany and France can't fire people as easily as Boeing can. This, at the time, must have been quite a pain point for them, but ultimately gave them a great edge over Boeing, which has a much easier time reducing capacity.

After the pandemic, there was a massive jump in demand for airplanes. Leaving Airbus in a mich better position and now they are hiring massively in order to fill demand.

Increasing capacity is very hard though and both Airbus and all their suppliers have to do it, for it to lead to a meaningful increase in productivity. Again, ironically, this is a massive benefit for Boeing as Airbus has a very full order book, buying planes from Boeing becomes much more attractive, because the alternative is no airplanes.
Show HN: Privacy Manifest CLI tool for iOS apps
I have created a simple CLI tool to help me go through the codebase of my iOS apps and detect those 'required reason' APIs and SDKs that Apple now requires developers to disclose on a separate manifest file.

I have also added the option to generate a simple Privacy Manifest file based on the findings and on the responses that the developer will give.

Even though it's a bit too niche for HN, there maybe iOS devs here that might find this tool useful!
In theory a reasonably skilled individual should be able to recreate your invention from the patent. In reality patents rarely provide sufficient details to do so. The fix is to bring reality back in line with theory.
That’s only a matter of time and advertising though.
I think the suggestion is, maybe there is a shared mechanism of action, like perhaps Covid damages your ability to uptake zinc. (I have no idea if that's the case, I only claim it's a more accurate reading of GP.)

Out of scope

The following features are currently out of scope:

CommonJS

Can’t be the best if CJS support is not offered. I know everyone’s hot for ESM but the fact of the matter is that there is an endless supply of legacy projects that will never migrate to ESM. Deliberately eliminating huge swath of potential users is IMO hostile. Especially because there are tools like tsup that can cross build out of the box.
I prefer later. As nuclear weapons are the great equalizer. A country with larger conventional army won't be able to bully smaller one... And you really need that sort of capability for equilibrium.
> Orienteering – a sport that combines cross-country running with map-based navigation – is popular in Nordic countries. This may be one reason why people from those countries tend to be better navigators than people from elsewhere.

Or it's the other way around - orienteering is popular there because people who are good at navigation enjoy orienteering. (I was never a super fan, but like to think I'm fairly good at orienting myself in my environment.)
Google will pump more than $100B into AI says DeepMind boss
Every once in a while I try to become an Amazon seller through FBA. I sell quality goods without a huge markup.

My latest attempt resulted in 1/3 of the goods being returned because they could be sourced cheaper elsewhere (eg AliExpress) after they were tested, or they were swapped by the buyer with defective goods purchase elsewhere returned (they had heavy wear). In the case where the goods were still functional, the packaging was damaged and I had to pay for the returns.

My conclusion is that amazons liberal return policies only allow something to be sold profitably at a 2-3x markup. Hence everything being garbage.

I won’t attempt it again.
One nuke in the right place (around 400 km up) destroys a power grid, meaning oil isn't getting pumped, delivered to the refinery, turned into fuel, sent to the troop carriers, so the mechanised infantry are now limited to foot travel, and even simple bullets aren't going to be mass-produced and delivered to the front lines.
This is the correct answer, in the U.S.

A sales discount is not income, nor is it a gift (which are not taxable to the recipient, but are possibly taxable to the giver).

In dsign's example, where the pizza is from your employer: in the U.S., it would generally be de minimis if it's a one-off or infrequent event. If it's a regular thing though, it generally is considered income unless it's very low value. The I.R.S. ruled long ago that any single item over $100 is not de minimis, but as this was a fairly old ruling, with inflation most practitioners think the modern threshold before the I.R.S. cares is somewhere between $250-$600.

Note: I do taxes for a living. While I don't do individual taxes, I deal with gifts to employees, etc., all the time.
No, they meant "it is [the act of making] little fuckups". It's is correct.

The approach's limitations are pretty well-known, though the results have always been considered estimates rather than absolute values. The "Reliability and validity" section of the wikipedia page for Intelligence_quotient is actually a pretty solid and well-written overview if you're looking for one.

In the beginning Firefox was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and was widely regarded as a bad move.
Good article, there is a certain level of being tied by what others might think while they don't give a damn actually. I guess this is somehow inherent to the US society (I am from Central Europe and don't observe this things at such scale) and it would be actually interesting to scientifically track the origins how it went this way
> The idea that there is a control arm of people who haven’t gotten Covid large enough to power a real control here is farcical.

Why? Whether someone has ever been infected is testable. About 20% of the US population had not had COVID as of some point in 2023.
Depends on the mistake, some constructions just fail to do what the author wanted them to. Those are unlikely to catch on.
Living in the panopticon, it's really hard to take this advice to heart. You have to self-censor all the time as if in front of large audience, the leap to believing that audience is interested in the positive aspects of your output, to make the constant vigilance worth it, isn't large, however delusional it may be.
Do you claim that NATO means nothing? I don't think so. Of course all international treaties in the end are the act of good will and nobody can force Americans to fight for Poland if the need arises. But still it seems that Russia afraid of meddling with NATO countries so far.
No need to question the previous comments experiences. Is there really anything which is "certain" when it comes to memories?

I'm not a memory expert, but as I recently read a book on the subject I think I have better than average understanding of it. If you can read Swedish or Finnish I do recommend it, the title is "Minnets Makt" by Julia Korkman (freely translated "The power of memory", official title is "Memory Dependent")[1].

The book taught me a lot about how memories work, how they are formed, recalled and modified during the years. And as memories are a core part of everyone's life, I think it would be good for more people to understand them better.

I did find a youtube video where the author, does a short lecture meant for law enforcement to teach them the basics of how memories work. As for them it is even more important to understand how meories, especially the recall of memories work when they interview people.

Disclaimer, I haven't watched it yet, only skimmed it but it does seem to cover the same concepts as in the book.

I recommend spending 27 minutes watching it for anyone who's curious about how the memory work. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qSyEs6feH0M&t=442s

You're right. And when that happens, let's remember that it is the path the Western countries have chosen by deciding that their immediate quality of life is more important, and skimped on military spending and foreign military assistance during an active invasion of a country that specifically surrendered its nukes in exchange for safety guarantees that were ultimately not honored in spirit.

And it is still not too late to do something about this, but the clock is running out fast. Luckily, every single one of us can help it by making that clock run slower with donations directly to the Ukrainian military effort (not some wishy-washy "non-combat humanitarian aid" stuff). Every dollar spent on buying drones for Ukraine to blow up Russian tanks with buys that many more minutes on that clock.
If you can get a copy of "100 money-saving tax tips" for $1.99, and the preview already sounds promising, wouldn't you? Even one good tip would easily save you the price of the book.

(Also: to me, blaming demand is a bit victim blaming - these scams are deliberately set up to entice as many readers as possible.)
I would be careful with some of the self-help groups. They can reinforce symptoms rather than improve them. A case in point is a friend of mine who thought she had post-covid symptoms and cognitive decline. She went to a similar group and found a lot of very miserable people with depression. When talking to them they had similar stories of lost relatives, lost jobs and general social decline. But all had a common thing which was they weren't dealing with those issues in a healthy ways. It was turning into a drinking club pretty much after the event was over. Even if you had problems this would exacerbate them over time.

There was a hefty dividing line among my friendship group after covid which was people who went down that route and people who went down the health and fitness route. The latter seem to be doing much better in all aspects even if they started in the former group.

I was running 10km once a week before. It knocked me off my feet entirely and I don't run often now which got to me for a few months. But I fought it and can do that again now if I need to. It hurt that it did that to me but it taught me how fragile things are. Also to note I'm a qualified mathematician but some days to months I can't add numbers together and this turns out mostly to be I'm tired or not in the right state of mind rather than anything persistent. Lots of causes - best to look for the obvious ones first.

Cam relate. After a month of being floored by COVID in 2020 (thankfully without a need for forced ventilation), I had pretty terrible brain fog. After a year, the fog was gone, but to this day many mental tasks take more effort and time, even though I can still do them again.
