Conclusion for those who read the title and read it as an implied negative effect on use.

Drug treatment for ADHD was associated with beneficial effects in reducing the risks of suicidal behaviours, substance misuse, transport accidents, and criminality but not accidental injuries when considering first event rate. The risk reductions were more pronounced for recurrent events, with reduced rates for all five outcomes. This target trial emulation study using national register data provides evidence that is representative of patients in routine clinical settings.

Actually AFIAK most of the US has moved to electronic filing, but that has actually made things more expensive. Typically courts hire out the electronic filing part. The hired companies typically collect money from both the state/county and the end user. Larger court systems like LA, NYC, and Cook are big enough to force concessions, or even fund new companies, but others have to buy into one system or another.

It would be great if a bunch of courts could band together to setup a shared open source solution, but courts at the state level are pretty fractious. And the legal system is both pretty slow and pretty reluctant to change.

Maybe; They should have still been able to file amicus curiae but likely they would have to appeal the remedy instead of attempting to become a co-defendant.

The case was Google illegally using it monopoly power. The Remedy was to prevent some of the anti-compitive actions. If the agreement was to split up Google, or for it to sell off chrome it wouldn't make sense for Apple to be a co-defendent.

I've found its helpful to divide notes into two separate categories: notes & logs. Anything that is not a log is a note. This includes recipes, people, tools, reading list, etc.

Logs are meant to serve as a labnote book. Each entry is saved in a daily journal & with a date and simple description header. What I'm doing, why, how its going, checklist, etc. Basically a dumping ground for everything I could possibly have a use for re-using later. This help eliminates entire categories of notes(e.g. call with mechanic), and give you a chance to leverage smaller notes with backlinks to the individual experiences using it. The effort to keep notes evergreen is very difficult when the content keeps changing.

This is a motte-and-bailey fallacy that got brought up a lot by gambling proponents early on. The biggest difference is that by design investments on average will return a zero or net positive potential for return. Gambling will always return an average negative return by design.

EDIT:

There was a study that came out a month ago that showed that state by state when online sports betting became legal, there was about a $20/month reduction in retirement investments. Considering only ~12-20% of the population has taken part in sports betting, this is not an insignificant reduction in retirement investments.

Should the same rule exists in more authoritarian countries like China, North Korea, or Belarus?

If so should the government be allowed access to non-nationals outside the country? How about if a non-national is inside the country communicating with those outside? How about if those folks are journalist reporting where journalism is illegal (see Russia's laws on "fake news" on Ukraine).

I'm not saying your point of view is wrong, but I think its easy to jump to that conclusion as this is probably the least sympathetic case to set principle. But this _does_ set principle.

They are to an extent. Cirrhosis is permanent. Other conditions such as fatty liver are reversible-ish.

The issue is that the liver is basically fully functional until after you’ve destroyed ~88% of it.

For a tortured analogy it’s a lot like a DB. Most of them time you’re well under your total capacity. Even short spikes in queue length aren’t an issue. But once you hit the tipping point there are cascading failures.

This also isn’t the first issue. Ignoring the stock maximization issues & issues like the Dreamliner mess.

This reason this is real real bad was because the 737 Max. The C suite said it was real come to Jesus moment. Now we’re finding out not only is the culture not fixed, but it has such mismanagement that there’s no effective QA.

It's a lot easier to review Movies then it is Products. A movie is a finite experience, and you have a large frame of reference for comparisons.

At what point do you review the product? You're relationship with the product will change over time, and probably will skew negative as it gets older.

There's also the relative exposure issue. I've seen probably a ~thousand movies in my life but have had like 3 Air Conditioners. I'm barely equipped to say what I thought about LadyBird.

My mother did NGO environmental policy freelancing in the 00's. She would land a contract for 40k for two months of work, then spend the next 4 months looking for more work.

Being a subject matter expert means that you can be paid well for your work, but the numbers of jobs that require expertise in the Kura-Aras river basin can be few are far between.

Shrink is a significant problem. I'm not saying that its not. Its especially an issue when you're already being squeezed by inflation while trying to keep prices low. And year on year numbers are up. But most individuals take on this is vibe based.

According to NRF's numbers both shrinkage & external theft are at not historically high, and are still down from pre-pandemic numbers.

There will be cases like Cotopaxi where a store goes under, but

1. The plural of anecdote is not data. 2. These types violent smash and grabs & resulting closures are not new, they are however going viral.

Yeah the PD numbers seem pretty crap universally¹.

But I was referring to the the self reported shrinkage numbers produced by National Retail Federation shows that shrinkage caused by external theft. Numbers are only slightly up year but are also way way under the 2019 numbers.

1: My wife works in the DV grants field for a while. PD numbers have always been pretty abysmal.

Its worth mentioning that this is somewhat a manufactured moral panic.

The Rite-aid referenced in the article cited shoplifting as the reason for closing but provided no numbers & the numbers of reported shoplifting incidents have been pretty much steady. Its worth mentioning that about a year after this happened the company filed Chapter 11.

There is no good data on this, and the data that does exist shows that shoplifting is down from 2019. Its only up it you compare to during the pandemic.

There’s two options that comes to mind. One is to get better results by avoiding SEO.

E.g. try using “site:Reddit.com Mac text editor”

The other is to use some GPT based system. I’m not a ChatGPT booster, I do think this type of thing it does excel at. Using your query on ChatGPT 3.5 I got the following result.

Some popular Mac text editors for writing include:

1. *TextEdit*: Comes pre-installed on macOS and offers basic functionality.

2. *Sublime Text*: Known for its speed and extensive customization options.

3. *Visual Studio Code*: A free, open-source code editor that's highly extensible for writing and coding.

4. *Atom*: Another free, open-source text editor with a strong community and numerous plugins.

5. *BBEdit*: A feature-rich text editor for more advanced users.

6. *Ulysses*: A writing app with a clean, distraction-free interface and organization tools.

7. *Scrivener*: Great for long-form writing projects like novels or research papers.

8. *iA Writer*: Known for its minimalistic design and focus mode for distraction-free writing.

The best one for you depends on your specific needs, preferences, and whether you're writing code or prose.
