Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe that there is no actual forum or discussion board on that site? Sure you can leave comments on [self-promotional] posts but it doesn't seem like you can post a question to other devs.

Whenever I get my cholesterol tested I have low good cholesterol and high bad cholesterol, is that hyperlipidemia? Any recommendations on how to get high long chain omega 3 and low omega 6 in my diet? Any supplements or brands I should take? Any books that you recommend I read?

Has that helped your crohns? Or other stomach or autoimmune issues?
You may be interested in the book The Keystone Approach by Rebecca Fett. It goes over research into the connection between pediatric strep throat and psoriasis. IIRC(from the book), if you are diagnosed with psoriasis before the age of 40, there is a 90% chance that it happened shortly after a... bad case of strep throat? Tonsillectomy? I forget which. Pretty eye opening book with some good diet-based advice on reducing symptoms of psoriasis, if you are looking for relief.
Confessions of an Economic Hitman by John Perkins
One of our biggest complaints is that in the USA it is super hard to make friends as everyone is super stressed, doesn't go to parks, and work long hours
Where were you experiencing this in the US? I have felt it from time to time but not always, curious if this was in the Bay Area or elsewhere.
Very negative, if nothing else. Bit difficult to read their comments when the amount of ego oozing through their words is palpable.
Were you working at an hourly rate at those companies? A salary at reduced hours/pay?
This is appropriate for Reddit, not HN.
HN jumped the shark (to be too much like reddit) around the holidays of 2020. In a few months I'll have to start looking for the next good discussion place.
For used books you could try thriftbooks.com

I've battled gut dysbiosis for years. To try to improve your mood, you could take some probiotics marketed as helping to do that. I used to take Garden of Life brand mood+ probiotic (you can probably find this at your local Whole Foods or regional health food store), but started having constipation and symptoms of excess histamine. Now I recommend a probiotic by the company LiftedNaturals that doesn't contain any histamine-boosting strains:
Why not ship-pocalypse?
If more revenue really is the answer, I'm not opposed to bumping up taxes more in certain ways. I'm definitely for ideas that make taxes less regressive, for instance getting rid of the lower long-term capital tax rate is probably good idea and a simple way to raise effective tax rates on the wealthy in a massive way.
So you agree with my point.
The rest of your comment, I think you're making things a little too black and white. You make it sound like people can either bring attention to the wealth inequality that exists today("demonize those at the top"), or they can buckle down and do "the hard work of making real, tangible improvements in the lives of those at the bottom," but not both. I think both of those are possible at the same time. Either way, could you please share a specific example of the hard work of making real, tangible improvements in the lives of those at the bottom? It seems to me like you're echoing the old pull-yourself-up-by-the-bootstraps argument, in a third party sense? Because I'm really not sure what sort of hard work for making real, tangible improvements wouldn't require some kind of money.
Having just read the earlier article about him, that's totally fair. That first one is a much more substantive (IMO) and scholarly scathing takedown of PG. This one is certainly more personal and political in nature.
Having nice things is a ethical crime-in-of-itself now? Even if he did lots of nice things?
What? Nice strawman there.
main issue is that he had a nice life and once said something a bit weird
What? No, the main issue is that this guy is so far removed from reality for >99% of the rest of the planet, and yet is preaching all manner of conventional capitalist advice.
I really don't care either way about the guy, I'm not envious of him. I generally just like playing devil's advocate to get people to see things from other perspectives. Its certainly interesting seeing your reaction when all I did was highlight one sentence from the article:
He got to experience what most of us wish was the real world, as the real world.
It's sad to me that any discussion of inequality has started to be so much more focused on bringing everyone at the top down rather than empowering those at the bottom and helping to bring them up.
Is there any way of empowering those at the bottom that won't take considerable energy, effort, or cost? Where should the resources come from to empower them, if not from the top?
You don't think that any of the points rang true? Not even
He got to experience what most of us wish was the real world, as the real world.

I’d attribute my positive results due to inner work, personal-development (hundreds of books), countless podcasts (Tim Ferriss, Naval Ravikant, Farnam St), and Mindfulness/meditation, and intense periods of obsessive hard work, and deep work processing and learning from missteps.
Any chance you could expand on some of this self-work? I'm a big fan of self improvement books, and I certainly struggle with attentiveness. Any insight would be much appreciated.
If you don't mind me asking, what is the name of this second hand clothing business? I will likely be in Poland next year and wouldn't mind checking it out.
Logged in just to say this, echoing several others in this thread. Offer them autonomy (trust them), and offer them flexibility -- I am planning to negotiate a 4 day workweek for myself at my job at a tiny company.
I believe its called reddit
Why do people care about "valuable things"? Status
Any additional evidence (either for or against) the claim that government pays for tech advances, while the private sector is who sees a return from that?
