> Some people fight with depression through their whole life. Just as with ADHD.

See I just don't think they're even similar. How is being sometimes (and sometimes is the operative word in ADHD) unable to follow instructions, forgetting things, having social anxiety, putting things off etc anything like the depression from being abused as a child?

I think a lot of the symptoms of ADHD are just underperforming "neurotypicals". Struggling is not an illness. Finding things hard doesn't mean you have an innate inability to do them, in sorry to tell you

I never get an answer to any of those points

Euphoric? Yes. Same for opioids.

What might the difference between between ADHD and ALS though? One is a neurodegenerative disorder and the other is indiscernible from some ditsy airhead who can't be bothered to do things

> These results are politically unpalatable so the enquiry is I think currently being run for the third time, but signs point to ADHD overdiagnosis being a hoax/fake news/whatever you call it.

And here's one for you: hundreds of thousands of scroungers and workshy young adults are saying they have ADHD to get pip and other perks... Because this is even less of a charade than back pain used to be, you can legit go on holiday with ADHD, they even give people mobility passes in the UK for ADHD, screwing over people in actual wheelchairs who really do suffer in society

> In fact they often have a calming effect.

That's clucky addiction mate same reason opioids can make addicts chatty and full of life again if they've been struggling to score all day

Oh it was fuckin you twice lol

> In my case, I had depression for no apparent reason, and I went through dynamic psychotherapy, which is basically about finding that reason.

What was happening with you at that point, where were you at? Riding ecstatically high with your wife kids and large circle of friends, the constant socialising and good times?

> Even if there aren't, what's so terrible about a temporary improvement?

Is it temp though? ADHD is a list of symptoms with no verdict on the cause. What exactly is the plan beyond the amphetamines? A lot of people I see simultaneously want diagnosing but not curing. It's like the double think required to say not having a symptom can actually be having one. As in, "Despite what I can achieve, I still struggle, and that counts as not being able to do it at all". Why do people never mask a language delay for instance? If masking is something all AuDHD people do, why is it always faculties largely intact but they find stuff hard (harder than whatever you feel, despite not having such a great theory of mind they seem to be aware of how other minds work just fine)

> ADHD medications are generally safe

Just like methodone is considered safe, doesn't mean you'll become a clucky mess after doing it for two decades.

Two different people gave that same Churchill example, it's obviously a common example that gets bandied around

He was raised by the nanny, parents were known to be distant. I'll rest my case

Obviously not.

Link it then

Cassius couldn't shut his mouth cos he was scared, real men don't need to constantly prove their worth to everyone like he did. Watch him try to antagonise Joe Louis who just pulled a gun out and shit the ceiling, Ali was off like shot

Is it? I can't find a list of job titles but I saw it included manufacturing industries...

Probably the most aspiringly poncey of all the commonwealth nations, rich given that "cunt" is more popular in Australia than han any other English speaking nation

> I am a musician but I, never in my life, have any idols whatsoever.

Let's hear this music then.... What's the guessing it's not very good.

But why do I have be prohibited from it just because you have an unintelligible feeling it's bad somehow?

Why is nobody suing them if it's such an open and shut case?

> For example, changing a nozzle on a bambu printer is a 15 second job.

Unless it randomly blocks itself.... I spend so much time on that shit

They are better than all the other tripe at that level

Horses as a pet obviously weren't affected by the internal combustion engine lol you can't swap out a two stroke for old long features

> Blacksmiths, wheelwrights, and wainwrights transitioned to auto mechanic or carpentry work.

Not the same as the horse and cart operator, for various reasons... Maybe the wheelwright? But even that seems like a specialism of carpentry

> It really was the horse people that lost out the most. That's why the idiomatic reference is for buggy whips, not so much for buggies themselves.

.... Had you forgotten what I'd wrote by the time you got to this point?

> Entry-level jobs are an obvious place to look things that can be cut to create an AI budget.

Kitchen potwasher, day labourer, apprentice welder etc none of these entry level jobs are affected by an LLM. But nobody on HN works in those industries.... connection maybe?

> But individual companies don’t have aligned incentives.

Be realistic. Would you start a business and risk it's viability giving away free training to the public? No, and neither would anyone else.

Did horse and cart operators ever get their jobs back?

Send them some subsidies from those large American coffers then, and they won't need to

> Now you want me to go back to the office every day, losing that two hours, for no more money?

If that's the choice probably not, but fuck me, just move or get a closer job if you hate the commute. Sounds like you live somewhere with no jobs, which is an adjacent issue, not every job is miles away.

I'm not saying it's not better than working in an office.... Clearly not having to smile, have clothes on, be polite to anyone are all benefits but a job isn't meant to fulfill you. If you had skills that were in demand youd be calling the shots, but as like me youre just a peon, you take what you can get. Wage slavery is shit full stop, why would anyone want to work for a living when there's this option called being rich and not having to lift a finger?

Complaining about the fucking commute just gets to me. Your grandparents probably worked twelve hour shifts six days a week and would get the sack for being legitimately ill, our slog doesn't even compare

Virginia, TBF it was years ago maybe they've all slimmed down
