If 10% of the people youâ(TM)re interacting with are willing to risk their career to call out your asshole behaviour, then I can guarantee you that 80% are thinking it.

Yes. Does anyone deny itâ(TM)s use other than toxic maga idiots?

Itâ(TM)s well understood that psychostimulants donâ(TM)t have the same effect on ADHD sufferers as they do on neurotypicals. On ADHD sufferers the increased dopamine stimulates their default mode network which wakes it up enough to be able to get control over all the different things going on in the brain. Thus ADHD sufferers report that the stimulants calm them down. Itâ(TM)s also common for ADHD sufferers to report other substances that cause dopamine release like coffee and alcohol as helping in the same way. Neurotypicals meanwhile have enough dopamine for their default mode network to be in control anyway. The extra dopamine goes towards stimulating other areas of the brain, resulting in more things going on in their head, not fewer.

I donâ(TM)t quite get why you single out depression - âoeADHD meds successfully treat depression in depressed ADHD sufferersâ would be a hugely significant result, especially how poorly depression meds work in general.

At least here in the UK, the diagnosis rate is around 1-2% of population. Given that the fairly well recorded in the literature rate in the general population is 5ish%, itâ(TM)s quite clear that either the UK has exceptionally outlying genetics, despite having lots of immigrant population; or weâ(TM)re actually chronically underdiagnosing. The idea that weâ(TM)re overdiagnosing it just comes from the same place that fat shaming, racism, homophobia etc come from. We all like to feel superior to other people. If itâ(TM)s ADHD, then we canâ(TM)t say theyâ(TM)re just lazy assholes who canâ(TM)t control their emotions, and we canâ(TM)t feel superior to them.

1) no, and 2) no.

If youâ(TM)re taking a dose that causes those issues then youâ(TM)re taking too much. The aim is for a dose that gives you a dopamine boost before any of those effects kick in.

No, itâ(TM)s not the only option. Another option is dopamine agonists, like Pramipexole. Yet another thatâ(TM)s coming online soon is SNDRIs.

No no, you just need the software from Ariane V that thought the rocket was going backwards.

Yes, a single drunk ATC controller, which we already have systems in place to catch is clearly equivalent to all ATC centres in the entire US losing their radar and radios simultaneously, and for multiple hours.

I mean, fair anecdote, but I get 1Gb/s symetric fibre to the premises here in the UK. Without data, it's hard to make the argument you're trying to.

A breakthrough has already happened - ReBCO superconductors. They enable much more powerful magnets, at higher temperatures and lower power levels. This is important for two reasons. 1. It means that a reactor uses much less power to keep itself running, cooling, and operating the magnets that hold the fusion in place. 2. It means the power density of the reactor goes up with the cube of the magnetic field strength. It makes it much much much easier to reach the densities needed to get to break even. There's a Tokomak already being constructed using this type of magnet near Boston, called SPARC. The physics predictions say it will produce 5 times more fusion power than the power used to run it. It is an experimental reactor designed to figure out the last engineering details to make a reactor that actually generates electricity. Its successor (ARC) is well into the design phase, and already has a construction site. ARC is expected to produce 20 times more fusion power than is input, and produce 500MW for the grid.

To be fair to them, the 787 has up until now not had a hull loss accident, and this plane was a long way out of the factory (it was more than a decade old). Iâ(TM)d bet reasonably heavily that this was caused by something to do with the fuel they loaded at the airport, but thatâ(TM)s pretty rampant speculation.

That said, good god, the 737 and anything made recently, I agree with you completely.

Iâ(TM)d insert into your speculation, any of the above causing only one engine to fail, and then the pilots shut down the wrong engine.

The broken character encoding is because slashdot is the one website that has existed for multiple decades and still canâ(TM)t correctly handle utf-8 in its text inputs. A common reason for seeing broken characters is using Apple devices which will by default use more interesting characters than just ASCII.

The information about the compressor stall comes from eye witnesses who both saw and heard the engine banging, and ejecting big flashes of flame out the back around V1.

Well, we do know some things. We know that it had a loud bang and compressor stall roughly at V1. We know the pilots issued a mayday as they left the ground. We know that it descended in a controlled manner with no engine noise into terrain with the RAT deployed.

While we donâ(TM)t *know*, it looks very much like it suffered a dual engine out situation. Iâ(TM)d bet itâ(TM)s one of:

1. Engine no 1 failed, pilots shut down engine to stop vibrations and/or fire⦠only they shut down engine no 2. Once you deploy the engine fire handle, thereâ(TM)s no restarting the engine, and youâ(TM)re screwed.

2. Plane suffered dual engine failure (most likely due to external factors like birds, because the GE GenX engines have so far been bulletproof).

Frankly, having played with some of the supposedly better reasoning/coding models⦠no they wonâ(TM)t. Good god the crap that stuff produces is terrible.
