Wikipedia is a good start, if you are open to the idea of being proven wrong. There is in fact quite a bit of evidence suggesting that many children with ADHD benefit from getting medicated with e.g. methylphenidate and amphetamine.

Of course ADHD medications come with risks, but the question is if they are on the whole beneficial for the patient or not. Brain surgery has risks, Ibuprofen has risks, exercise has risks.
I've heard the exact opposite thing, i.e. people from my age-bracket (late 30s - early 40s), saying that they won't deplore in the least if many of the old people were to die, especially those old people voting the wrong way (presumably not the way those people in their 30s and 40s were voting).
Absolutely a game changer. I'm using the same stack (minus Diesel) and I love that if it compiles it almost always works. Not so with JS/TS.

With server functions (and of course client/server in the same codebase/language) I also finally get why anyone would be attracted to running JS/TS on the server side.
OK here is my attempt at intuition:

Here is an approximation that captures the main effect (the 23.5 degree tilt of the earth's rotation axis) and overlooks secondary effects.

Consider the equator. Imagine a circle on the X-Y plane centered at the origin. Angle the circle up 23.5 degrees, rotated around the x axis. The projection of this circle back onto the plane is an ellipse on the X-Y plane, with the vertical axis about 92% of the length of the horizontal axis. Now, consider a series of vectors in the X-Y plane starting on the X axis, with angles in steps of 0.986 degrees. (This is approximately the angle the earth progresses around the sun each day.)

Where each vector hits the unit circle, move the point up or down so that it hits the ellipse. The angle will change a bit for most of the rays. In some cases the angle will be a bit smaller, and in some cases a bit larger. These discrepancies are the variations in time of day of sunrise and sunset over the course of a year on the equator.
you're confusing the issue and the solution
> In every place I’ve worked, outside of independent contracting, the sales person didn’t do the trench work.

Because they were not "elite salespeople"? Jokes aside, I guess the best salesperson is the one whose title is not "Sales".
I know it is in the nature of probabilistic neural network outputs, but it almost feels like these commercial models are built to make those mistakes (making up functions/parameters) and it is all a big conspiracy to hide the real useful stuff from general public.

I started giving the models api docs and headers before interacting with them and it seems to work a lot better.
just because that aircraft was doomed (maybe?), that doesn't make it a good idea to have the concrete wall there
I like this idea of setting a theme. It gives you a compass for if an action is in accordance to the theme or not.

I still like to drill into the concrete quantitative details of how I’m going to achieve the theme though.

This year theme for me would be: Freedom.

How the heck does he have time to post all that amazing stuff, AND be coding open-source, AND have some kind of day job?

Yeah, Perplexity also. Linking sources is probably the way to go, maybe linking people too.
There’s a lot of good advice here, and everyone I know is different about how to overcome executive functioning issues. But one bit I’ll add:

ADHD can be incredibly lonely. Not even in ways you are aware of until you are older. It’s easy to see the places you aren’t like others or adjusted for in school. There are minor imperceptible ways you might be reminded of this and in all likelihood, those closest to you don’t have it—e.g. teachers, parents. And often it’s framed as something to overcome.

So remind your nephew of what makes him different in amazing ways. And take time to value the things he cares about and excels in. I know that’s good advice for any child, but it’s so important when the world is telling you that you aren’t the same.
Smithy can likely do all you need: https://github.com/smithy-lang/smithy-rs

Since it is used on production in AWS, some versions are lagging behind, however. Server generator is based on hyper/tower and works with axum too.
What kind of Data Team should I join?
Yes, I've seen that too. Then I said "well, you're hiring me in part because of my opensource work. It looks like this contract wouldn't allow me to continue doing any opensource work once I start working here. That would be a huge problem for me." I think the managers involved hadn't read the employment contract itself - or didn't understand the implications of a clause like that for opensource devs. They didn't want to stop me writing opensource code when I felt like it. So we figured it out.

Contracts aren't written in blood. They're just an agreement between two parties. You don't have to agree to whatever crappy, one sided terms are waved in front of your face.

And remember, its common for companies to spend 40+ hours of work in sourcing, interviewing candidates, hiring panel discussions and so on before they finally give you an offer. Especially in the era of AI generated resume spam. It would be extremely silly to throw all that work away over a grabby IP assignment clause added on a whim by one of their lawyers. Now, yes - some companies are absolutely that silly. But most people have a lot more negotiating power than they think. Especially when it comes to ridiculous clauses like this. At a minimum, its always worth raising.
I love what Valve has done to make gaming a better experience, but I can't see everyone just dropping everything to install Linux on their computers.

They bought a Windows laptop, for Windows things... People would rather go to Best Buy and get a new laptop than try something different.
I tried Axum recently and had a fairly bad experience. Incomprehensible trait errors, generics all over the place, and mind-numbing async glue code. Salvo wound up being way more straightforward for my (admittedly simple) use case.

I haven't written a Rust web server since before async/await, back in the Actix days. Axum is definitely an improvement on that. But I think the async ecosystem still has a long way to go.
Oh no: https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/sites/duolicious-4chan-dating...

The Know Your Meme article, linked from the post page, is the best anti-review for this app.
The highlight for me is the distinction between being reckless and being 10x. It’s not about ignoring rules entirely; it’s about getting the right sign-offs and aligning the team, then going full throttle. Really resonates with how I like to work. There's something about having total urgency on delivering something that makes us rethink the existing process like nothing else.
Thus, the advice to not run the red light..
I’ve always loved Haskell as well, although the most I did with it was writing a small language interpreter for a CS class.

It’s amazing how much better major languages could be. They’re slowly getting better - I started out using PHP 5 at work, and the improvements since then (eg PHP 8.4) are HUGE. I’ve used modern C++ extensively as well.

I love Rust more than either.

If you like Ruby, Loco RS is really neat as a(n immature) Ruby on Rails replacement.
Having been locked up, I was regularly the only white guy in a whole building. It's completely normalized for Black youth to go to jail. I hesitate to say it, but it's practically considered a rite of passage. It's really sad. Some of these kids are absolutely smart as fuck and could do anything with their lives if their environment hadn't failed them.

When they get to jail, every one of their friends is there already, so it's way easier for them to process and deal with than it is for some random middle-class white dude.
Imagine if models were trained for this purpose using OS-INT and reinforcement learning instead of repurposing a general model and using generic prompts from a somewhat safe guarded LLM?

That's where we're headed. Bad actors paying for DDoS attacks is more or less mainstream these days. Meanwhile the success rate for phishing attacks is incredibly high and the damage is often immense.

Wonder what the price for AI targeted phishing attacks would be? Automated voice impersonation attempts at social engineering, smishing, e-mails pretending to be customers, partners, etc. I bet it could be very lucrative. I could imagine a motivated high-schooler pulling off each of those sorts of "services" in a country with lax enough laws. Couple those with traditional and modern attack vectors and wow it could be really interesting.
So... the degree of control they have over the plane on landing suggests they have some degree of hydraulic control. It's possible they throttled down the wrong engine, but this is speculation at this time.

Landing gear has a manual gravity release by the first officer that doesn't require the hydraulics. (But does take some time.)

Ground effect was certainly involved (why they glided so far before touching down) but the bigger factor was their high speed, lack of flaps, and lack of gear.
I wish that was true. But the corporate world runs on MS Office. The alternatives to that just cannot keep up :(
> What’s the gender ratio on Duolicious?

Admitting this was brave.
> just used for scripting...

AKA writing games. Many people writing games with Unity go far beyond what anyone reasonable would call “scripting”, writing code that consume a significant part of the performance budget.
I'm a quiet slow advocate for small half shipping container sized battery packs every 200 houses or so (in Australia) with forward capital loans amoritised over the local connection charges.

There are a few examples in the wild already.

From both a network and a OSHA PoV it's robust, the fire dangers are concentrated and professionally managed, outages are localised and contained, excess can be routed into the grid, shortfall can be drawn down, etc.

Supply companies need to be restructed into grid connection and management companies .. this transition may take a decade or so.
The only hitch was figuring out how to get server side includes not to break the WASM compilation (the solution was adding #[cfg] and #[cfg_attr] guards around the diesel use and derive rules). Other than that, it just worked - it’s so damn easy!

I always thought WASM would be difficult to use. With Leptos, it’s easier than JavaScript.

>The Manhattan Project was different because it was during a World War

We were in a mass fear-inducing Cold War (that anyway became 'hot' at times through proxy wars like the Korean war) for 45 years from postwar onward.
That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard. SSE is just a response type for normal HTTP. Explain exactly what you mean cause that's like saying that are removing response types from HTTP.
I think loco.rs, which actually builds on axum is the closest thing right now.
Last time I toyed around with it though, I found it to be pretty verbose, particularly because it uses SeaORM
The contact information policy is a pain, though I don't get any calls.
My experience, for decades, has been that ems / rems are almost always preferable for scaling anything that's relative to text: body width, margins, padding, etc.

It's also possible to scale text itself to the reader's own preference if any by setting the body font size to "normal". Assuming the reader has set that value in their browser, they get what they expect, and for the 99.99966% percent of people who go with their browser's shitty default, well, they can zoom the page as needed.

(Most people don't change defaults, which is one key reason to use sane ones in products and projects.)

Sites which use px or pt (o hai HN) for scaling of text or fonts absolutely uniformly fail to please for me.

(See my HN madhackery CSS mods links in my profile here, that's what I'm looking at as I type this here. On my principle e-ink browser, those aren't available, and I'm constantly fiddling with both zoom and contrast settings to make HN usable.)

Making pixel-based styling even more janky by not being actual pixels any more seems ... misguided.
It's an interesting suggestion, but not a good analogy. In many areas schools actually begin the prison pipeline. Children don't stay in school longer or continually cycle in and out. In poor areas they go to jail.

It's clear you hate people. Most people in jail haven't even been convicted of a crime. Nearly all plea, and rarely any go to trial.

I just registered a .re domain at OVH, and the first thing they did was provide me an account I cannot log into and cannot password reset. When I contact their support, they can't help me unless I call an international number.

The whole ordeal gave me such a bad taste, I've postponed using the domain and am thinking of just letting it expire. Such a bad service, when you're used to Porkbun. Domain registrars, on average, are just glorified domain sharks. I really hate how poor the service is when you come from a country where the NIC has been trusted through decades and their CEO comes to schools to lecture about the history of the open Internet.
Out of interest, which country are you in? Is this something your country's government made your ISP do?
Yes, but in basically every single circumstance if you have room for 1000m of dirt, you have room for another 1000m of runway, which is even safer.
I've deeply internalised that with flexbox, when using rows or columns that I need to visualise a row that holds multiple columns. And for a column, it's got multiple rows inside it. I literally have to visualise this in my head to remember the correct property.
And then when they did start replacing all their pneumatics, they used bio-safe wire insulators... That degraded inside the car. Caused unbelievably massive problems.

The 1987 W126 is often regarded as the last truly overbuilt car available from Mercedes. In sizable part because of the switch to electrical systems.
Organizations dealt with certain "weirdnesses" (the great Firewall) for a long time. But my sense is that over the past few years there's been an increasing sense of pulling back from all this.
I work in a certain niche. The older I get and the longer I get, I realise I have to use less crutches and abstractions because intimate knowledge of my code is more important than supposed speed.

LLMs lead everyone in the opposite path and that to me seems to ruin everything.
Yes, sorry, my comment is specific to the USA. A lot of countries have better and/or different (China) ways of dealing with recidivism.

It's horrible that if you go to prison once, then that's basically your whole life from now on. Most people will never escape the revolving door.

Every single person I know who has been to prison is counting down the days until they end up locked up again.
holy crap, nothing is safe.
It's mostly:

- "flex: 1 1 0px" for fill available space

- "flex: 0 0 auto" for sizes to content

And then arguably every flexbox item ought to have min-width (and/or min-height) set to 0 because flexbox has a "min content sized" automatic minimum size built-in, which is rarely what you want. But if the content isn't overflowing or can be compressed in some way then you can get away without this.

The browser version is lacking several features compared to the Windows and Mac versions.
Damn this is a wickedly awesome response.
Cause of death was landing halfway down a runway at high speed with no gear. Why were they cleared to land if they hadn't set flaps and locked gear? There was ocean in front of them both before and after their turn: landing there would have been more survivable than landing fast and hard with no gear. They were below minimum turnback altitude, and wouldn't have been able to complete the planned turn without the same power that could have been used to stay aloft and sort out their problems.

Nothing about this crash was normal, and talking about a thing past the end of the runway is misdirection.
The web version of Office apps still is not the same as the full-featured fat desktop version, which only runs on Windows and Mac OS.

You can't use the web version offline, they are not a PWA, for instance.
Remember your nephew is still a kid with a brain that is developing for some more years.

Taking medication _now_ may be counter intuitive for future development, as the brain never gets a way to fully (under)regulate/calibrate dopamine release on it's own until maturity.

Finding ways to learn that help him.
Ex:
- Short attention span? short repetitions of digestible chunks that he can relate to.
- After school classes where someone is available for questions and some 1-on-1 help gets a long way.
The US military will never be the "biggest customer" of a fab. The only true volume products the military needs are bullets.

For reference, Intel CPU sales are on the order of 50 million units per year. As a comparison, Apple is selling on the order of 232 million iPhones per year. This is why missing the entire mobile market has hurt Intel, and there's no way the US military is buying more than 232 million of anything other than bullets (and maybe paper products).

The subsidies being paid to Intel and other manufacturers aren't a substitute for volume manufacturing of semiconductors. The more volume you can push through a fab, the more information you can collect and use to understand how to tune the process. Without the kind of volume that TSMC is pushing through its fabs, Intel doesn't have a way of getting the data it needs to tune its fabs. Less data on the process means that it's harder to develop and tune the next generation process. This means that the longer the negative aspects keep feeding into the next iteration, the harder it becomes to pull out of the negative feedback cycle.

Intel needs volume, and if it doesn't find something to run through their fabs in the hundreds of millions of units, then things can only get worse for Intel.
I think this might be like those static analysis tools.

people run their code through it, and it finds a LOT of problems, some of them serious.

and then you fix them and you feel good.

But after that, you have a bunch of problems that aren't real. You either ignore them or the tool starts creating more work exponentially.

I suspect AI will be like that. It will help you a bit, but don't get caught up in it because you'll spend time distracted doing AI things.

The weather thing is interesting: Ottawa, e.g., gets 3/10. I've lived in the area since 1990 and, other than a week or two in the summer and a similar span in the winter, love the weather here.

Office 365's web version is pretty dreadful.
There's two possible interpretations here.

One is that Dell wanted to use stay at home as a filter for promoting people that believe in it, the other is that Dell was using promotion as a stick (as in carrot and stick) to get people to come into the office.

We can't really say which of these they're doing, but my vote would be the former.
I’ve always figured those guardrails wouldn’t really hold up, but hearing that AI-based phishing can be 50 times more cost-effective than manual attacks is a serious wake-up call. We might have to rethink everything from spam filtering to overall threat detection to step up our AI defenses game.
I have an .org address that very rarely bites me, but usually works in large majority of cases.

I'm not a fan of the market model for utility functions and it probably shows. That said, I think your idea is good. It would improve resilience in the system. The problem right now is that community battery funds are dangled in front of the public without the "cui bono" being stated: it's the supply companies which benefit mainly, especially in the income side.
"One strategy I use for my relationships with foreigners is to gently pat them on their heads if they understand me. That way, there is positive reinforcement and they are encouraged to improve their understanding." - this may very well be one of the most condescending and disrespectful things I've read on hackernews ever. Also, my wife has a PhD in American History from Yale and teaches at SUNY, I don't suspect she misunderstood the question.
I’m worried about the ocean all the time, so it’s weird to think that’s actually the best kind of scenario.
There's some progress on that proposal, just happening elsewhere. https://github.com/tc39/proposal-esm-phase-imports defines machinery for importing a ModuleSource object which you can instantiate as a Worker, and once that's done module expressions would just be syntax which evaluates to a ModuleSource rather than needing a separate import.
> the idea that google are particularly careful with users data is pretty laughable

Either you don't know what you are talking about, or we attach very different meanings behind some of these words. Let me rephrase : of all companies, institutions or associations that I've been able to glance from the inside in my already quite long carrier, Google was by far the one where user data was the most secured, from unlegitimate access from the outside world or from the employees alike.

Also, of all the big internet corporations, I've read many stories about facebook or microsoft (amongst others) cooperating with the most repressive regimes. On rare occasion where I could read about some big corp prefering to loose a market rather than user trust, each time it was either Apple or Google. Granted, it was many years ago; But already after Google was regularly presented by EU "opinion makers" like the most evil of corporations.

Witnessing this and the ensuing downward trajectory of morale in big IT corporations, I half-jokingly developped the theory that maybe corporations are like little children: they behave just as well as they are expected to. If you constantly tell them that they are immoral and stupid, then they become just that.
How are you liking Leptos? I've been on the fence of trying Leptos vs Dioxus for a new project. They both seem great, but when I look for things like "charts" or "plots" or other components I don't see much support. Even though I am not a fan of TS I'm not sure if I really want to make those components myself.
