I’m quite depressed. I think the world I live in makes me depressed. I would take a treatment that made me not care about dismal and grim things, if that would make me stop feeling so much pain.

This is really interesting - could you share a source on how Valve/Icefrog make balancing decisions?
Further, provide documentation and support for, and sell spare parts to, users who want to fix their consoles (at least, in the case of procedures that a user could reasonably perform) I'm a home bicycle mechanic, and…
Your comment reminded me of this video of ravens trying to hide food from each other. They clearly demonstrate a robust theory of mind. Each is keenly aware of the other's goals and capabilities. Seeing this, I could…
Hi! What's the best way to get in touch about the junior engineering role?
This is a straw man. There are absolutely people who are concerned about both overpopulation, and individual overconsumption. I am one. I limit my personal carbon footprint. I do not own a car (and hopefully never…

Often, tests aren't announced until just before they happen. Musk's twitter seems to be the primary source for this kind of information from SpaceX. Otherwise, some unofficial/fan sources[0] have pretty good…
I rode the whole TransVA 550 this summer. The route is beautiful, breathtakingly rugged. And logistics couldn't have been easier, as the route is very well planned, with great resupply points, camping, water, etc. It…
Mine has an additional tell in the printing on the face: a tiny, precise U under the word RESIST. On fakes, which are usually poorly printed, the U is much bigger.
If you're getting rid of something and it doesn't seem worth selling, give it away. Platforms like Craigslist and Facebook marketplace are great for this. ime you'll find a taker for anything that's not complete junk.
Triage is built for this: training and evaluating giant grids of models & hyperparameters using cross-validation. Similar to igel, it abstracts ML to config files and a CLI. It's designed for use in a public policy…
Can you recommend readings about the Buddhist take on this?
This is a repulsive take. It’s so upsetting for me to read this that I’m feeling unable to articulate why. Not to mention the fact that you’ve posted this in the context of a story where a child’s life was harmed by…
Seconding - my X1 Carbon 7 runs Ubuntu with no tinkering whatsoever.
I've seen a lot of people claim this. But it reminds me of what was said about the Falcon Heavy before its development got underway. That rocket turned out to be much more challenging than expected, despite being "just"…
I am not willing to spend $250 to solve a problem that Apple willfully introduced. I am also not willing to spend $250 on a product with a usable lifetime of 18 months max. I hear a lot about the inconvenience of wired…
I think this is what inspires me about spacex/musk, too. I'm not convinced there's a rational, utilitarian justification for settling Mars. But is there anything wrong with doing it solely for the purpose of having a…
This is a long-contested debate in the field of international development. The model you propose is called microfinance, and has been attempted for decades. Here's a summary of the issue:…
By this logic: A large portion of roads are low-demand and have few drivers. Why do my taxes subsidize the upkeep of those roads, and not just the major highways? Low-demand, niche routes are necessary for a public…
Can you talk at all about what they do to develop writing skill? > I'm convinced it's a major reason they've been so successful. I'd be interested to hear why you think this. One guess I've got is that a high standard…
Does anyone know why Amazon engineers always seem to write so well? Any time I read technical content from Amazon, I am struck by how clear and concise it is.
