With the number of comments on this post, I doubt anyone will read this, much less the OP, but I feel compelled to say:

GO TO THE FUCKING DOCTOR!!!

If you're noticing something wrong or different with your body, go to the doctor to rule out something medical. Then continue your investigation. A doctor wouldn't try to diagnose you based on what you've written in your original post, so I wouldn't weight too heavily the opinions of a bunch of NON-DOCTORS with zero skin in the game.


What's your preferred medium (one-on-one conversation, book, audiobook, podcast, article, etc.)?


I don't mean to be alarmist and I have no idea what the likelihood is, but one thing you didn't list as a possible cause is something that has changed in your brain. When I was 32 I started noticing an increase in typing mistakes and having some cognitive trouble. Later that year I had a seizure, got an MRI, and found out I had a brain tumor.

You're probably fine, but in addition to asking HN I'd recommend asking a doctor. After having surgery to remove the cancer, I also got a cognitive psych eval (several hours of testing) to establish a baseline. They were able to estimate the degree of decline I'd experienced due to surgery.


He has one on the ICE actually, though I don't have the link handy.



Wonderful! Showed this to my wife who, bless her, hates stuff like this and she’s captivated.


Please correct my math if I got this wrong, but a less click-baity headline would be:

> IRS Says Its Own Error Sent 0.0016 Percent of a $2.2 Trillion Stimulus Package to Non-Americans Overseas

34 million / 2.2 trillion = 0.00005454...


Agreed. Would renaming it vertical-split or vertical-alternating reduce confusion?


Vertical-alternating seems very clear to me. Also consider allowing vertical-alternating to “compact“. Reducing blank space may be of value for some designs.


I don't want to just spread negativity, but I see this so often on HN I feel like it's mean not to comment.

I would strongly recommend anyone considering developing an app to have a list of potential customers before they write a single line of code. This is not a revolutionary idea, but I still see it regularly ignored.

When you launch, you want to be able to send the announcement out to your 1,000/5,000/25,000 email subscribers/insta followers/podcast listeners. Simply writing an app and submitting it to the app store is going to be painful.


> I'm guessing that video is taken in the US since she is planting corn.

Yep, Nebraska. I grew up near(ish) the town on her sweatshirt.


Has the ACLU's stance on the right to bear arms has been inconsistent, as in, changed quite a bit over time? Or they just haven't had much of a stance to speak of? Honest question.


In 1991, they believed it was an individual right. Now they believe it's a collective right. I don't know of any major cases the ACLU brought on behalf of gun owners (but probably wouldn't know if they had).

https://reason.com/2019/04/12/the-aclu-defends-the-rights-of... has some discussion of this.


I can't speak to that - but they also haven't felt as much of a need to devote resources to it as they feel, accurately, I believe, that the NRA has enough resources and a loud enough voice on that topic.


> I would bet that most people who join the military today (at least in the US) do so hoping to avoid ever having to see action, rather than looking forward to killing for their country.

Most of the guys I went to basic with or deployed with could. Not. Wait. To see action.
