This reads, lightly, like a clinical psychosis situation, presenting a kind of mania with delusion. It can have different diagnoses, of course. As I understand it, there is _almost nothing_ short of medications that will deescalate it. There are people who manage their reality breaks successfully without.

Calling the professionals is 100% the right thing to do. I would also move unless you and he commit to you being a live-in psych nurse. I don't recommend it. I would not break contact, but this is a sharp gap in shared reality that is going to be very dicey to live in the same space next to.

I have lived with a family member with very serious mental illness, and it is no joke. I do not recommend without a major personal commitment.

Same as Perl, nobody wants to maintain it, but it's extremely fun to write. It has a lot of expression.

You can see that in Raku's ability to define keyword arguments with a shorthand (e.g. :global(:$g)' as well as assuming a value of 'True', so you can just call match(/foo/, :g) to get a global regex match). Perl has tons of this stuff too, all aimed at making the language quicker and more fun to write, but less readable for beginners.
Addressed to GP.

This resonates with my experience. When a friend is having their first manic episode, it’s hard to get them to recognize that and get the help they need. But after the aftermath of a couple manic episodes, my friend wanted to get help. Even when he had a hard time complying with meds, he was able to recognize when he was heading into another manic episode and get help proactively.

My friend’s family do a few things to mitigate some of the bad decisions that a manic episode brings on. 1) the family has location tracking, 2) the family can pause credit cards, 3) the family can take away car keys.

I don’t expect any of those mitigations will be able to be implemented today in your case. But if your friend is currently going through a bad manic episode then they will probably want to prevent future manic episodes from spiraling. Having a conversation about how to achieve that, and having a mutually defined set of warning signs, will help address the problem.

Ask HN: Are there strategies for content creators to prove their location?
With a looming snap election in Germany, there is revived discussion in Europe and Germany on regulating internet platforms and social media to make foreign election interference and misinformation campaigns harder to carry out.

Regulating or moderating digital discourse to combat misinformation is notoriously difficult on many levels, but one model that has seen some adoption is offering additional information and context to consumers of digital information. For example, YouTube displays contextual information under videos that discuss certain topics, and Twitter/X has the community notes feature.

To mitigate foreign misinformation, a potentially powerful piece of context in the run-up to elections could be whether or not the content was posted from a device located within the European Union (EU). For the sake of argument, assume that the goal is to offer social media users the option to verify that their social media post was sent from a device physically located within the EU. Unverified content could appear as before but could be labeled as "may not originate from inside the EU", much like email clients may display "sender is not part of your organization".

Independent of the merits of such a feature in helping to mitigate foreign misinformation, my technical question is whether you see a practical way to implement a protocol that allows end users of digital platforms to prove that they are physically present within the EU without revealing their actual location to anyone.

The verification would not establish where the post content comes from since it may be relayed to the posting device through the internet, but verified posting should require some physical 'last-mile' EU hardware. In other words, foreign actors intent on pretending to be European would have to acquire/hack a significant number of in-EU devices to relay their messages from overseas. A rate limit on posts per verified device could further increase the cost of verified content posts from foreign imposters.

The solutions can assume that social media companies, ISP providers, or what have you, are cooperating to a reasonable degree to implement a solution. To illustrate this, consider that during the COVID pandemic, the EU with help from Apple and Google, implemented a tracing protocol that used Bluetooth proximity technology to detect nearby devices of users while preserving their privacy [1]. Could an approach like this be used to establish plausible physical EU presence of a device that would be hard or costly to spoof for a foreign actor? What are protocols that would make content infiltration a little harder than jumping on a VPN with ChatGPT from somewhere in the world?

In other words, are there practical strategies for opt-in, "zero-knowledge" proofs that your location is within a relevant jurisdiction?

It's interesting how major airlines competing with them has made things worse for everyone. I have many times seen passengers ignorant about what "basic economy" means (or at least feigning ignorance) and it leads to passengers trying to negotiate seat swapping on their own, or gate agents getting involved when it's a young child getting separated. All of it leads to boarding delays, which leads to delays pushing back, which leads to sequencing delays for takeoff.

Yes, its great to see progress in the tooling [1] so that the component building is easier. Although I do like to think of the component model as the "ABI linking model". You can only bind one implementation to an interface import.

When people's brains run low on energy (ATP) they start to exhibit 'mental health' symptoms - depression, psychosis, etc. Sometimes a person just needs a better diet and they'll snap out of their spiral.

Chris Palmer MD wrote a book [0] about how he discovered 70+ years of research establishing that mental health conditions are caused by metabolic deficiencies. Dr. Palmer's book documents his patients responding well to a ketogenic diet, but there are plenty of other interventions that can improve metabolism.

Emotional stress is a significant drain on the brain's metabolic outputs (more stress -> more need for ATP).

My friend has the genetic condition where she can't turn the provitamin folic acid into L-methylfolate (vitamin B9). Folate deficiency is associated with alcoholism, but not all mental health conditions are connected to substance use/abuse.

> If Musk remains the CEO, everyone doing business with Tesla understands that they are dealing with a US government official. That's going to be a big business risk, especially outside the US.

It seems like this would be very good for business, especially considering the billions in revenue Tesla already earns from the u.s. government. If I were a Tesla competitor I would be worried.
It has the same whimsy and DWIM of perl, look at Promise having a status of 'kept' or 'broken' which is more fun than 'fulfilled' or 'rejected'. Brings to mind Perl 5's use of bless, calling the filter function 'grep' and local/global variables created with 'my' and 'our'.
Is there any benchmarks for these chips doing like regular 'data-sciency' CPU grunt work? Dataframe-wrangling, inverting matrices, doing large matrix, factorisations, fitting decision tree's, etc?

I wonder - did the US government, specifically DARPA, consider CHERI when laying out their "Translating All C to Rust (TRACTOR)" initiative? The two initiatives could be compatible (memory safety at both the software and hardware level), especially since CHERI might be more feasible when it comes to rewriting legacy software.
How can you differentiate (as in assess your own state of mind) as to whether a feeling that "there is a greater truth that they see clearly now" is mania or genuine appreciation? Like say you have been depressed for X weeks/months and have been mulling over philosophy/turning ideas in your head.

At some point ideas click and you realize something "obvious" that changes your perspective and you no longer feel as empty as you were before – is that mania indicative of the mind finally "breaking down", or a genuine breakthrough? And for that matter how does the feeling "everything is really important and meaningful" differ from the supposed state of "enlightenment"?

What are some tests you can perform on yourself to assess the difference (between mania/healthy appreciation)? If one is e.g. able to meditate and maintain concentration to a sufficient degree, does that rule out the possibility of mania?

Once, I mentioned to a friend that if you were to list all US counties by average income, the two northern Virginia counties would be in the top 5. He said 'that's because the government has never had a recession.' I guess that might finally happen soon, and if it does, a lot of resentful people are going to have schadenfreude at rich bureaucrats losing their jobs.
It does fit the second dictionary definition of gambling: "take risky action in the hope of a desired result". However at that point almost everything you do in life could be called 'gambling' so it kind of loses all meaning. Buying a Big Mac? Gambling that it isn't infected with e coli. And so on.

If B is called, and the language is otherwise reasonable, then it must mean that there's an A variable in the program which is not showin in the above code.

The language must have separate namespaces for functions and variables. But in that case var B = A must be resolving A in the variable namespace; it does not refer to the function A. The local B variable is initialized from some nonlocal A variable, and neither of those are related to the A or B functions, nor have any interaction with the B () call which ignores the variable space, looking up in the function space.

I had a Fuji point-and-shoot with GPS built-in nearly 15 years ago. The problem with GPS built-in to hardware is that it takes like 30-60 seconds of standing still to get a lock on the satellites, it doesn't work indoors, and so on. Phones work around this by downloading ephemeris data and triangulating using the cell towers and nearly Wi-Fi and Bluetooth devices, things that a camera can't do without incorporating a whole phone with SIM card into the camera and burning battery.

The fact that you can do stuff like this with a typesetting system has always amused me.

We would always joke about writing all their simulations in TeX, so that the TeX file for their paper would include all of the simulation code too, and rebuilding the document would run all the simulations and generate the plots.

Finding some hack to democratize&decentralize the indexing and expensive processes like JavaScript interpretation, image interpretation, OCR, etc is an open angle and even an avenue for "Web3" to offload the cost. But you will ultimately want the core search and index on a tighter knit cluster (many computers physically close to one another for speed of light reasons, although you can have N of these clusters) for performance so it's a hard nut to crack for making something equitable for both the developers and any prospectors and safe from various takeovers and enshitifies. Let us know if you know a way.

I see it as a self-sustaining stereotype only prevalent in what people tend to read. Who wants to read about a normal life of a normal russian, frankly? It’s likely not a snark, but it is nothing more than just a complex sort of klukva^ either. Subj is a completely non-standard story of a single person from early 20th century. You can find similar hopelessness in London, Hemingway, Le Guin. The prevalent dynamics in Russian culture is that you get education, skip draft, go to work, have kids, buy some things and die from bad healthcare at 60-70. Pretty normal shit that is too boring for a narrow-font-magazine headline.

Personally it doesn’t offend me, but it’s just cringe(?) most of the time. Off, odd, klukva. Nothing rings true to me in this subthread, which is just a pile of stereotypes. I think that these “and american, but american” comments come from the fact that people can and get tired of it but cannot express it clearly.
