May I ask why.

> Damned if you do, damned if you don't....

I’ve seen this phrase maybe 10 times in the last week on this site. Is this some new hacker news trend to pull out this old cliché on everything now?

One thing I have never understood about ADHD is that it seems the diagnostic criteria for it are widely different depending on the country. It tends to be significantly over diagnosed in some countries and perhaps under diagnosed others. I always found this rather strange. It suggests there is quite a lot that we don’t know about these kinds of issues.

I don’t disagree with most of what you’re saying, except for one point: I must have gotten a dumb dog, I’m a little jealous…

I mean the post itself is indicating that he did not write any of it and that it was written by AI.

> it’s possible for some candidates to be paired with a company they don’t really like, but it’s considered a stable situation

Thus extrapolating to a dating app, it’s possible for someone in the matched pair to not really like the other person. Sounds like a rousingly success.

> configurations), the applicant is going to have the least favorable one among the different pairings.

I don’t understand why this would always be true. In your example, Google may indeed like Alice, so they both get their top choice.

which societies, which failures, which "every" are you referring to, exactly?

it's perhaps debatable, but the European (and French) legal frameworks do not recognize hate speech as protected free speech, so I suppose the concern (e.g. in the Bardot case) is if it was hate speech or not. Americans also do not support hate speech, though perhaps the way these are handled legally are different. I don't think this kind of exception is fairly applied to discredit what I wrote.

Sounds like a step in the right direction, then.

France has a constitutional right to free speech since at least the 18th century, not sure what you mean. There is a Declaration of the Rights of Man, which is still part of France's constitution. France is also bound by the EU Convention on Human Rights. Why would you compare France to Singapore in this regard? That's strange.

I find this algorithm to have a curious definition of the word "stable."

Why will B propose to X first if their first choice is Y?
