They figured out that autism is actually four completely distinct disease clusters with four completely different symptomologies, with some overlap of symptoms in the middle. One of the disease clusters correlates with Fragile X retardation. The idea that we clump together an actual genetic condition that causes retardation with 3 other disorders is ludicrous.
Therapists need to understand that many disorders can produce "autism-like" downstream effects, just like many things could cause anxiety or depression. Not understanding the disorders doesn't "help patients".
If you say you want to have a retro terminal where you can talk to ChatGPT, instead of telling you to use an LLM CLI in a terminal with a retro theme applied, LLMs will just build you a 500K-line terminal client from scratch uncritically. Even if you ask it to make architectural decisions, it will just riff off of your bad idea. And if you ask for critique, it will tell you bad ideas are good and good ideas are bad. We all have stories about arguing with LLMs until they tell us "Okay actually you're right, I was wrong because I think whatever my training data tells me to think."
Fun fact, there are actually multiple people with the first name Derek. I post under my real name, so if you want to confirm I'm not Derek Thompson (or Derek Jeter for that matter), you can look me up on LinkedIn or the WhitePages. I'm the only Derek Tank out there
Wow, imagine that, 99% of academia is left-wing and they're afraid to have a presence on X because the the "tolerant" left calls it a "Nazi echo chamber" and will come after their careers. BlueSky is totally winning, you guys!
What? Discussing thought provoking news in the political world? No, flagging this thread, which is thought provoking is just insulating those who can afford to ignore it.
If HN is about intellectual curiosity, the heated disagreement in this comment section should be proof of how stimulating this topic is. But we’d rather stick our heads in the sand rather than confront what inconveniences us.
Thank God, so I'm not going crazy. Calling the Northeast (Irish-Italian) and Great Lakes (German) Megaregions a single country called "Yankeedom" because they both lean Left made absolutely zero sense to me.
Applying to 400 jobs is apparently not enough sense of urgency, got it. It's surely American laziness that's the problem and not the infinite slave labor they're competing with.
400 applications in two years is less than one application a day. The last time I was unemployed I was applying to five to ten companies a day all with targeted cover letters. I kept track of every application and followed up. I made it an eight hour a day job to find a job.
You are missing the point that a director level resource, could only apply to a relatively smaller number of roles. Entry level IC might not be worth applying.
So despite what they say, the limitation factor might also be number of posted jobs.
I know they said they applied to anything - but still anything for that profile might be a bit more broad - entry level IC to FANG may be which pays better or a role that is open to leveling or start up or any other combos.
You triple-posted this comment that "The Right cheered when 2 MN lawmakers were killed..." Literally the only thing the Right said was that the killer claimed Tim Walz paid him to kill them and someone else; how did y'all manage to hear about the Right's "celebrations" when y'all never leave your echo chambers?
77% of Republicans believe it is always unacceptable to feel joy at the death of someone they oppose, while only 38% of Democrats share this view (YouGov)
