Fuck her and fuck all royalty. I couldn’t give a shit…

I don’t known about others, but I really don’t want to watch this show now.

> Each critique is then evaluated to determine whether it’s genuine or a forgery created by a bot, troll or other breed of digital goblin

Look they’re criticizing us! They must be trolls.

Shocker... That's what you get when you politicize climate.

maybe, someone else saying it is not proof though, and either way you're still wrong.

Don't fall into the same trap as the other dude. Those statements are patently WRONG. "Tiny number of people" is millions and millions. "<5%" is the definition of a bullshit statistic that is: a) a guess, b) very wrong with just a google search, and c) means nothing as it can't be proven.

What you're saying is provably wrong. I can't tell if you're a bigot or just dumb.

Never ceases to amaze me how ignorant people continue to make such deranged and wide generations with little or no evidence.

Let me guess, email is dead? RSS is also dead right? Literally no one ever uses them anymore. You probably think that all businesses should just all switch to TikTok and communicate with memes and dance routines.

Israel is an occupying state

That’s all fine, but you didn’t need to straight up lie. You cannot really justify it. Good luck to you with it, but know that you don’t need to lie. It’s not a clone.

> With Anki, I stop immediately. No real world user is installing software like that on their device, the homepage just screams virus to someone unfamiliar with opensource.

That’s a huge generalization. I’m a really world user and I use it heavily. I know many non-technical friends who use it as well. It screams virus for the ignorant. Don’t appeal to the lowest common denominator.

Quizlet’s killer features is that they have text books that are ready to use, and lots of decks that are ready to use. Your app will break if they stop allowing exporting data.

I know you’re 15, but I’ll talk to you like an adult.

I’m no fan of Quizlet, but to call this a “clone” is outrageous. It’s like sticking four wheels on a wooden board and calling it a Corolla clone.

At best you can say that you made a flash cards toy app that can read data from Quizlet.

Also, take a look at Anki.

Intentionally misleading is not marketing, nor is it “hustle”, it almost always smells like a scam even if that’s not your intention.

That’s because this is not art. Contemporary / modern “art” in general is pure crap, and is absolutely NOT art. It’s formed of a circle jerk of people who pretend like their work has a meaning or that they understand each other’s work. Art reflects the life view of the artist, and we can clearly see that this reflects nothing. All people involved know that it’s BS but they’re all afraid to be the odd one out or are directly profiting from people’s stupidity. It always comes down to pretentious elitist assholes who think they’re too intellectual to work for a living.

Two options:

- You really are not familiar with Sam or the topic, didn’t read the thread or watch any of the clips, in which case you shouldn’t have commented with the “yelling into the wind” comment that made it seem like you just don’t agree.

- You are familiar and just trying to find a way out of your comment which you wrote just to stir people up, a basic trolling tactic, expecting a reply such as mine so that you can pretend like you’re taking the high road with the “get better” comment. In which case I think you’re just projecting and it’s you who needs help and you know it, so please -for your own sake- do get some help.

Great! Looking forward to it!

“The individual is in a dilemma: either he decides to safeguard his freedom of choice, chooses to use traditional , personal, moral, or empirical means, thereby entering into competition with a power against which there is no efficacious defense and before which he must suffer defeat; or he decides to accept technical necessity, in which case he will himself by the victor, but only by submitting irreparably to technical slavery. In effect he has no freedom of choice.”

― Jacques Ellul, The Technological Society

Are there any plans to support Linux?

Don’t waste your time reading comments. Each pontification is shittier than the other. People on HN can be extremely stupid sometimes.

Note to author: please for fuck sake, stop with the false click bait promises. “I wrote a note every day” … then … “Ok, that’s a lie; it’s on weekdays and not everyday”… what the hell? You do you you’re writing and not speaking right? ie. go back and edit your text if you’ve lied, otherwise it’s just clickbait.

You just answered the question yourself.

> there _isn't_ any delayed gratification in kids taking a bath, as she said, kids love it once they're in there

Keyword here is "once", kids love it _once_ they're there. The point is that -at the time when the parent is asking the kid to stop what they're doing and shower- they (don't want to / don't understand why they should / etc...) stop what they're doing. Take a look at the Stanford marshmallow experiment[1].

I don't see why it discipline can't be about both though, delayed gratification _and_ routine and requirement as you said. I'd add that routine can help (mainly for kids) in establishing a pattern where the value of delayed gratification can be harnessed.

> discipline is about doing things that need doing,

There's nothing inherent in what the word discipline means that signifies anything regarding doing what needs to be done. It's more about doing what you understand to be good for you later, even if you don't fully (or irrationally) don't want to do now, specifically if it's a small sacrifice now for a greater reward later.

1: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stanford_marshmallow_experimen...

Discipline has nothing to do with whether you think chocolate is good or not, or if you should eat it or not.

That's something totally different. Delay of gratification, the act of resisting an impulse to take an immediately available reward in the hope of obtaining a more-valued reward in the future. The ability to delay gratification is essential to self-regulation, or self-control, aka discipline.

Well, discipline is nothing more really than a delayed gratification rule set. Kids refuse a bath usually not because they’re rebelling against themselves or the parents, but because they don’t get the concept of delayed gratification yet. You make little sacrifices in the present to ensure better future.

This is going to sound slightly harsh, and by no means it’s an invitation to stop thinking or pondering, I think it’s kind of good to be skeptical and think of possible major oversights in the way we live our life, but this kind of hairsplitting wordsmithing is useless, and possibly what is causing this person to neglect that discipline is just a helpful concept. Reading “an embarrassing amount” of self-help books is not a good sign either, but yes, the majority of that crap is just that; crap.

No one can teach you or force you to like exercise, until you do it and like it, then you understand, then you’ll probably fall off the wagon a couple of times, but at least you’ll know that you’re just being lazy, and that’s fine sometimes, but mostly you’ll have to gain experience in fighting laziness tendencies, and it’s probably harder for some people than others depending on many variables I can’t even list.

Biggest factor for people not having discipline (or not wanting to have it, not liking it, etc…) is that they want a quick solution that makes sense, where the answer is that it’s always difficult, you just have to learn to enjoy it and find ways to come to terms with it. Practice more and do it again.

The author is not rebelling against discipline, but really against the self help industry.

The biggest thing cypher wanted was to forget first, that’s the only way he could handle it after knowing the truth. Unreal can never be as good as real.
