The low ratio of quality original reporting vs political and opinion pieces made stop reading the verge.

Code is less and less the scares resource.... Good documentation is.

I think you just heard that word and use it because it makes you sound like a logical person. It’s not fitting at all here. After all, a straw man would be me taking a general claim and creating the weakest version of that argument. If anyt

Tell me what I’m wrong about? I have absolutely no frustration with my clients. Be it psychopaths, social anxiety, pedophilia, or schizophrenia. I think I currently actually like all of my clients. And I think all of them I appreciate my ap

There’s an underlying pattern to the negative responses. “ how dare you suggest that people should work on improving themselves”

Yes. The terrible ideology of working on yourself not blaming the world! It’s only the core of almost all psychotherapy approaches, self-help book, secular self improvement programs, and religions ever.

There is absolutely no empathy in not helping people with the actual problem. Using ASD protocol on someone who has a personality disorder is going to make things worse. It sounds to me like you have no empathy for all the people who are af

you’re correct. I was just using it to emphasize how all encompassing regulation sometimes feel. I was annoyed and didn’t think; when seeing just another European regulation piling on then endless sea of things you can get fined for here. C

I agree that "sardonic" is a better word. It’s just not used much, and it didn’t even come to mind. It's similar to how people misuse "ironic." But people usually understand what is meant. The general thrust of the

Makes sense. It’s already illegal to even attempt to commit suicide here, so compared to that, this is just another small way the state micromanages your entire life. Sarcasm aside, I wonder if they calculated how much we save by not trashi

As I wrote in the opening. That’s exactly what we do all the time. It’s called case formulation. It’s called hypothesis testing. In this case it’s also common sense about human nature.

Because it’s annoying that people can’t even stick with the criteria that are basically the same across all the major diagnostic manuals. And because I believe that words and concepts should mean somethin. Because it’s proof that they are

Neither ADHD nor OCD have anything to do with communication style, 'being five steps ahead,' or patterns of interpersonal friction. The only symptom that remotely fits here is impulsive speech, and that's sporadic, it doesn&#

The people to who take too much responsibility are not the one that "makes it other peoples problem", unless they are suffering from a dependent personality disorder. And even then, consider rearranging what you just said in your

I'd push back gently on 'just shut up' as the solution. In my experience, people like you are usually CORRECT about the problem, and the anger and annoyance is well funded. It can be annoyance with the bad architecture, the w

I find that there is a big difference between how people that use the fact that they are "A perfectionist OCD person". Some wield it at a weapon. Some use it as an excuse. Some start with the assumption that it can be harness into

Some. I was CTO of a mid-sized firm (~$30M revenue) and have sat on the board of two hospital psychiatric units. Granted, I'm in Norway, so office politics may differ. But let me ask you the reverse: How much time have you spent helpin

For anybody that is interested in a clinical psychologist's take, here is mine… This article triggers an overwhelming feeling that something is missing in the story. Of course, being fired is genuinely painful, and the author's em

No. What you say is obviously true. My question is: Why do, on average, people always make wrong claims in the same DIRECTION? Towards negativity. Let's say we had objective data on things people say that we know are wrong regarding LL

In later iOs versions i started making much more mistakes. Felt i got old or something. But whenever i type on my Android phone, its like nothing has changed. I swear that the iOs keyboard is trolling, I HIT O NOT I! O AM CERTAIN!

This is my favorite field for me to have opinions about, without not having any training or skill. Fundamental research i just a something I enjoy thinking about, even tho I am psychologist. I try to pull inn my experience from the clinic a

I know you think that's a clever comeback, but it's not; it's just a shift in what level of analysis one does. It's an experienced reality indeed, but THEN you create a narrative based on that. Obviously. Experienced rea

This is exactly what I am talking about. Let me try to explain. I am interested in the more abstract and general concept of: "People excessively feel that things are worse, even if they are not." And I see this A LOT in the AI&#x2

I find it hard to care about claims of degradation of quality, since this has been a firehouse of claims that don't map onto anything real and is extremely subjective. I myself made the claim in error. I think this is just as ripe for

I try to make it a point to acknowledge when I am wrong. And after some time, and maybe after the release of Codex 5.3, the Codex App is a VERY good agentic coder. I stand by my initial impression, so far as the claim that it did piss me of

That was a painfull read for me. It reminds me of a specific annoyance I had at university with a professor who loved to make sweeping, abstract claims that sounded incredibly profound in the lecture hall but evaporated the moment you tried

Omg. I dident say my reasons where good. I said that the claim that price vs ground based data center alone made space based compute a no God, was a bad argument. I obviously suck at framing my point
