No, my complaint is: I am very annoyed that this professional workstation runs Notepad ten times slower than my old 486.

What counts is the final user experience.

For what is worth Electron could solve all the problem in the worlds. My point is that in order to display rich text, images and basic UI elements (what Notion and for instance Slack need) it requires an abysmal amount of memory with respect to a native implementation.

Let’s just say that the fact that Electron needs to allocate hundreds of MB in memory to display a single “Hello world” text does not depose in Electron’s favor.

Compare it with the few MBs needed by an equivalent native app with exactly same functionality.

By any standard and by any metric, Electron is bloated. Some applications (like VSCode) can disguise it quite well and give a an acceptable user experience.

Explain please. What does the M1 do to IO loads?

All of this can be done quite efficiently on a native widget. The problem with Notion is that it uses Electron.

> So the victims of a cyberattack have to prove their data has not been manipulated?

No, but if they do claim it has been manipulated, then it would be nice to show proof.

No idea what you are talking about, sorry.

Anyone would say that a leak is doctored...

Even the Clinton team tried to say the Wikileaks were doctored, despite the vast majority of them having a DKIM signature confirming their authenticity.

The ball is in EMA’s field now: they have to demonstrate the leaks are doctored.

There’s pretty damning information in there, it’s in their interest to demonstrate it’s false.

I don’t think you did anything wrong, sorry if my comment came out as a bit aggressive.

That’s very good, I am glad your health improved.

However 1) correlation does not mean causation, less so with one data point 2) people who radically change their diet often do some other lifestyle change out of the same concerns.

For instance is not uncommon to switch diet and start exercising at the same time, or switching to a more regalar sleep schedule. Did you?

Jain can drink milk and eat dairies, which are a good source of B12.

One of the major criticisms of a vegan diet is the a almost complete lack of B12.

> The accreditation form requires applicants to tick a box if they have been convicted for fraud or something similar. Sunde didn’t tick this box, as he was convicted for criminal copyright infringement. This ‘error’ was swiftly noticed by ICANN, which is also uneasy with other parts of the Pirate Bay founder’s history.

Don't get me wrong, Flameshot is a great tool, but this feels a bit like celebrating every turn after reinventing the wheel.

The First Amendment does not distinguish between hate-speech and non-hate-speech, it simply protects any kind of speech.

He lied on the form, everything else is anecdotal.

> BTC's are numbers traded between speculators for no reason other than speculation.

So are all derivatives.

The fact that men and women have the same average intelligence, but with different variance is very well documented in psychological literature. An extremely well established fact, no doubt about it!

Anyone who took Statistics 101 knows that these two distributions will show extreme differences at the tail, hence the large number of male Nobel laureates, chess champions, etc...

Who is arguing with facts?

Not really true.

It’s widely accepted that the average intelligence is the same for male and women, but the variance is larger among men.

Of course women are capable in chess, and there are women capable of beating nearly everyone with extreme ease.

However, when looking and the very tail of the distribution, you will find mostly men due to the higher variance.

Hence, more men Nobel prizes, more man chess champions, etc...

I am not ruling out societal factors, but way too many people today rule out biological differences altogether!

That’s a false comparison.

One can believe that men and women are equally worthy, while also observing that at the same time biological differences (testosterone) lead to behavioral differences.

The mere observation that there could be less than 50% women in tech, or in some business meeting because they might not be interested, does not deny women’s dignity.

On the other hand, (some) feminists believe that each meeting should have 50% of women, regardless of merit.

This is also not very decent, in my opinion.

More articles supporting your viewpoint until your viewpoint is agreed by all? This is incredibly patronizing.

Can’t you think for a second that people can have a different opinion, and that doesn’t need to be somehow corrected/educated out, but just understood?

Viewpoint diversity matters. Not everyone believes in feminism, very decent people believe in different gender roles for men and women.

I don't understand. I am sure the nix repository is quite large, as are Debian's and Fedora's ones. But how would nix help you mixing packages from different repositories, which is Bedrock Linux use case?

Until their hosting decides to block them, or my ISP, or several AS’s in the middle decide to block them and there’s no route to them.

The answers, respectively, would be: start your own hosting provider, start your own ISP, deploy your own Internet.

Just to be clear: I’ve never used Parler.

Wrong. Many accounts here are more or less anonymous, probably a vast majority. Still, one of the things making HN a special place is that we assume good faith.

Many, many thanks for your reply!

> Building and doing things with my hands (like playing an instrument, cleaning around the house, or even playing with LEGO) seem to be the most effective ways for me to overcome it.

Same here, even though LEGO can stress me out sometimes! But playing music is always a great source of peace! Reading even, as long as it's fiction. Asimov seems to redirect my attention to a single target, and that helps!

> Work is also a good distraction for me sometimes because I enjoy what I do

This also is the same for me, but there's a minor part (let's say 20% or 30%) of my job that I don't really enjoy, and that really sets me back, every single time...

I will try following your suggestions, and I will focus more on different activities that can distract me in a positive way!

I wish you all the best, and I hope with all my heart that 2021 will bring resolution to your issues!

From you username I would guess that you like Haskell, I also love it! :)

Hi! Your first paragraph exactly describes my life now. I couldn’t write it any better. It resonated so much, I had to create this throwaway account (my account is essentially my real name, I am a bit uncomfortable discussing mental health on a public space in non-anonymous form).

How do you exit from this state?

I would be so, so grateful if you could answer (if you know the answer) here or at isitdopamine on Gmail.

Psychotherapy doesn’t help much, even though I plan on allowing more time for it, I know it takes time!
