That does help of course, but it overlooks the fact that anxiety can be an illogical mental health problem rather than just a logical well-founded concern. By which I mean even if …

I think there's a certain type that you're talking about that does tend towards energy drinks like that, but it's not true in the other direction, as that type is a minority of ene…

I mean, there's more than enough reasons to criticise or laugh at the UK that actually exist, without mocking a country for a hypothetical of someone online that hasn't actually be…

I think it depends on context. If the private subsidiary was doing semi-unrelated stuff to the goals of the non-profit, and using it to fund the non-profit, then your logic could m…

Well, you don't know if they do, or if they were just capitalising the start of their sentence while not feeing that the word needs a capital letter in and of itself. (But yeah, pe…

I agree that the TV part isn't particularly great itself, but over the years I've had plenty of late nights with TV on ( not as many as with music, which would be my choice if at h…

That definitely fits with how I felt about the numbers they reported

It partly depends on whether "time spent on screens" is counting time where a person's attention is primarily on the screen, or time when a screen is actively directed at a person.…

> "more than 6 in 10 people declare they already use AI for mental health questions. 42% of them almost always follow the advice it gives them." If these numbers were "of people wh…

Sorry, what do you mean by "To not own the model is not viable in 2026." I assume I'm misunderstanding you (likely my fault), because the way I read that is that you're saying nobo…

Pedantic correction that doesn't change anything other than accuracy: it was reported over a year ago to be closer to 14% than 15%. https://www.theverge.com/news/627849/auto-draft …

Slow reply, but: good points!

> Life insurance doesn't pay out for suicide. This may vary by country, it isn't a subject I'm particularly familiar with, but at least in the UK that isn't true - many, I think mo…

There definitely are ways that publishers could have avoided falling foul of anti-Cartel legislation (my question was about where the line is, ie if they did it legally would it ac…

I'm not very familiar with anti-cartel laws (in any country), but I wonder if there would be legal issues preventing publishing companies from working together in such a way even i…

I mean, one doesn't even need to read the article to learn that the blame went to both companies - it's even in the title here on HN.

Ah, that makes sense considering a few comments back they said they're in the "Pacific Northwest"! Thanks :)

You thought you were‽ (Unrelated, do you work at Paradox? Or 3 letters in your username coincidental to their abbreviation?)

There have been quite a few punctuations proposed for indicating sarcasm, but interrobang not one of them - that (‽) is literally a combined ? and !, and is (per wikipedia) for " a…

How are you judging the impact of things on your gut/microbiome?

In a similar vein to cobbzilla, I have a couple of family members (and to a lesser extent myself too) who would be keen on such an app for their iOS devices if you ever need some t…

Personally I find the formatting used by the Gutenberg one to be a lot nicer/easier to read, despite (or perhaps because of) being simpler, more plain. At least for the first few p…

Are you just sharing "this is something else on a TV program that amused me", or am I being dense in my failing to spot anything that's similar between the two situations?

Very much depends on the site - certainly there's plenty that are annoying in the way you describe, but there's also plenty (I wouldn't be surprised if either side were the majorit…
