Some anti-smoking drugs are actually just antidepressants sold under a different brand name. It’s literally exactly the same drug with a different name stamped on the pills, but it’s easier to get people to take the drug if they think it’s a “pill to help you quit smoking” and not an “anti depressant”

The founder is the very first guy in China who used malware technique to prevent his own IE search enhancement plugin, 3721, circa 2004, from being uninstalled. It was a pain in the ass to uninstall this thing because it hooks so deeply in the system. Now it's sarcastic that this guy is running a security business.

The most recent case is that they broadcast the footages captured on the so called security cameras on a website that it positioned to be something like Twitch but with daily life content. So you really got to see inside other people's house! Supposedly this needs to be enabled by the user as an option, but I'm not sure why so many people enabled it. They have stopped this 'service', without admitting that it's wrong.

That was a really enjoyable read! Thank you for this. Do you have any other recommendations?
Idea - make a website that lets you compile and test any open source program. For example, I should be able to clone, compile, and run gedit (a stagnating text editor included with many linux distros). This would let me quickly experiment with and edit a variety of programs and tools within the web browser without needing to get a development system up and running. I bet open source projects can get a ton of new hackers to continue development on their programs if everything could be worked on quickly within a web browser.
Basically the most desperate and cheapest available out there. Also the paywall causes the article to end at this quote, which is perfect because I have no desire to read any more of it.
You know what at this point I have no incentive to further engage since my attempt to elucidate was also downvoted. Each post that I submit is a further cost. Such a silly game.

Let those who havent worked with SIMD reject an authentic attempt from a vet to elucidate err and be happy with that click. Whatever.

If you can drain my remaining few hundred karma I'll have an excuse to stop clicking another Bitcoin rehash article every day and will thank you.
> possession for personal use should be decriminalized while drugs should remain illegal in large quantities

Your objection is correct, a fundamental issue with "decriminalisation of personal use" is that it's still quite trivial for officers to charge "possession with intent to distribute" for people who don't make a business out of dealing drugs. Talking about giving drugs to a friend / having a scale (to measure your own doses) / whatever else -- the police still have plenty of ways to threaten people with hard time to get you to plea guilty to a lesser offence. Hell, people who share drugs have been prosecuted for homicide after someone OD'd. It's still prohibition, just with better PR.

Such a state of affairs still cranks the iron law of prohibition (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_law_of_prohibition, the reason so many people die of fent overdoses), this still leads to police having legal authority to stop and search your car if they claim to smell weed, it still leads to people involved in the drug trade having no options for dispute-settlement outside of violence (https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/how-the-war-on-drugs...), it still leads to police focusing on the impossible task of ending the drug trade to the point of trashing the homicide clearance rate (https://www.themarshallproject.org/2015/04/02/why-are-americ...).

Getting people to download and install traditional software is a substantial point of friction. Average users hate managing software installations, updating, fixing broken installations, dealing with malware, et al. The problem spans from the enterprise down to normal consumers.

Browsers as a better software platform, will significantly accelerate the rate at which software eats everything.

Most software should ideally just work, no installs, period. The browser can act as that platform and it can go a lot further than it has so far. More to the point, there is no other future outcome than the browser becoming that vehicle, nothing can stop it from moving that direction at this point.

You don't need something equivalent to maximum native performance to do what 99% of users want to do. The rare edge cases that need extreme performance will remain native.

That the religious right have latched onto prohibitionist dogma for centuries is not in question, however your comment doesn't appear to take into account that, at least in the US, said dogma has been spun up specifically to vilify one minority group or another to pander to racists for political gains consistently since the country's founding. Anti-chinese leagues' anti-opium rhetoric circa late 1900's being a prime example.
> "drugs of abuse" may actually be the only thing keeping some people alive

First hand, I can tell you this is true. I may not always be taking something, but if I am, I'm pretty sure it's better than being dead. Which is an alternative I have both considered and pursued in the past. Whatever you may think of me for it, I mean it.

The vast majority of my experiences with mental health professionals - particularly psychiatrists - have left me almost pitying their dearth of comprehensively effective models or tools. Talk therapy usually went better for me, but it's the wild west and the luck of the draw there, too.

Addressing the root causes is the hardest work, because it encompasses everything-- relationships, finances, ethics, traumas, personal development (or the lack thereof) and on & on, all tangled together in a spaghetti mess. Sometimes staying where you are for a while is safer, at least until you find more stability or better therapeutic options.

It reminds me of the old way Chrome didn't hide saved passwords. It made sense under the threat model they had for the feature, but it wasn't the security model end users expected would be the default.

A simple UI fix would be to explicitly call the sharing mode "unlisted" like some other sites do including Youtube, with a similar warning about linking to the content.
Not for stories on copyright. Spider Robinson's story is the only one that has stayed fresh in my mind.

This is just fantastic. The "happy 2018!" news i was waiting for.

And how are things ever going to work without standards?

Standards aren't meant for end-users, they're meant for the engineers building the freaking software end-users are using.

Imagine every electrical device in your home having its own distinct power cable. Every device requiring a different voltage (110V is a standard, who needs that?) and plug type. You'd be spending a lot more (as the end user) in converters and adapters and whatnot; the only end result is that you pay much more for much less.
True. I think this would be a project within the open source community. Core libs (libXYZ) would be pre-compiled to WASM, and only the lib / program being hacked in would be modified in the browser. The compilation and linking would include the core libs. Maybe I will work on such a project, I will think about it.
Can you explain this in more detail?

I've never used this construct, but I was unaware of its consequences. You've piqued my interest.

I agree, not sure why the downvotes. The only thing that I see, is that the current AG is not in fact following a Nixonian anti-weed script at all. Which is why the present administration is not going militaristically crazy trying to politically attack states that are legalizing / have legalized.

Trump is crazy right? Sessions is a fascist right? Why haven't they unleashed the US Government very aggressively to raid and abuse the states? Who can stop them from doing that? Nobody. They aren't doing it. As far as comparing versus past AG behavior, Sessions is acting like a libertarian (again, by contrast to how things used to be during peak drug war). When California legalized pot for medicinal use, people all up and down the liberal Clinton Administration tried to argue / fight against it. I don't see the Trump Admin doing much of anything toward California (and the rest, DC, Washington, Colorado, et al) on this legalization front.

The "race plays a huge part" does take it into account. The prohibitionists were not just "the religious right", you're applying today's politics to something that's been going on for much longer.

You're not wrong, but it's also not true that the prohibitionists were racists, either. That's the thing about political movements is they often have wide bases of support.

I'm not sure what's controversial about this. Have you guys not been around very religious people who abstain from all drugs but are not racists? There's a lot of those, it's incorrect to act like they don't exist and it's all about racism, because it is not.

History is nuanced, it's not an all or nothing thing. It's almost never just x.

The information is "real" in that it is information that has been collected from a sampling of browsers of users from over the internet, or particular subset from local users connected to a nearby public network(s). As long as I'm not logging into something that would personally identify me, for all intents or purposes, I might as well be any number of the people around me connected to a network that I sampled. So even if I enabled javascript/cookies/etc, at worst I would be delivered a sampling of the ads the people around me (or the data that I sampled) were being sent.

I'm also, not on facebook/instagram/twitter etc, so I avoid the downsides of the social media bubble all together. If I "need" to use such services, I'd just create a dummy account, and discard it after.

It's not so much to evade tracking (although it can be effective in some instances), but to dirty the waters/avoid the feedback loop from tracking via ads delivered or the parasitic choices (or lack their of mostly) of others who just do nothing and jump head first into the next available skinner box.

Not like it would be impossible for a nation state actor to move against me.

You can only say that without knowledge of the Bernie Sanders campaign. Prior to that I'd have agreed with you. It was tremendously successful at fundraising from small dollar donations by pushing policies that benefit the many over the few. I don't see a reason why other campaigns can't pick that up and run with it.

I see what you did there.

I’d be all for this, honestly, except that the existing containers (yes, even Jetty) are too heavyweight for this use case.

What you really want is a stripped down server runtime that loads and starts your application’s archive, fires it up on a (possibly random) local port and opens a stripped down Chromium instance that loads the app from that port.

Of course, that sounds a bit like Electron.
> but because of having a condition so bad that doctors are willing to give you opiods

I concur. I've been prescribed opioids post-surgery and also for painful outpatient procedures (when the topical anaesthetic just didn't cut it) and thus had a period of my life a couple years ago where I took quite a bit of prescribed opioids (that in 2017 likely would not have been permitted due to far stricter restrictions on prescribing).

I never ended up addicted, nor did I use non-prescribed opioids (even though purchasing them could have been trivial, I had bitcoin and the original Silk Road was around then) nor did I obtain opioid prescriptions under hinky pretences. The reason for taking them went away, and so did my (medically-sanctioned) opioid use.

This isn't to say that opioids are harmless (if they were, they'd be a placebo); but judicious use of pharmaceutical-grade opioids over long periods need not result in any adverse effects.
> I don't see a reason why surrounding some static object (which can only exist once in a program, like a sound module, a network module, etc) with braces and a "class" keyword would somehow increase this vague idea of reusability.

Often, because the assumption that it can exist only once is wrong; this is particularly true of instances of some descriptive class of interface to an external hardware resource, which covers all of your examples.

> It's only a syntactic change.

No, it's usually not; while the syntactic change is usually necessary, it usually isn't the whole difference between the desirable modular code and the bad global-using code that should be made, and quite often if you aren't writing it as a global resource in the first place, you never make the other wrong decisions that would need to be changed.

Using globals may occasionally be justified (either as an optimization or, even more rarely, as “correct” from a fundamental design perspective), but most often it's a symptom of sloppy thinking.

I understand that too much exercise does not do any good. Just that the mere choice of whether that day is workout day or not can be detrimental to setting up the habit. So a 3 days a week can be strength training, a day can be HIIT and other three can be yoga or some other lighter form. That way, I will be there every morning. Helps to ingrain the habit.

Eating raw veggies withing 30 mins of waking up seems to stabilize my blood sugar and control food cravings later in the day. Intermittent fasting does wonders for many people. For me, it is good the first day but soon becomes a drain on my willpower. I will be binge eating in 4 days. If intermittent fasting is a storm, eating raw veggies in every meal seems to be like a calm, relaxing, gentle wave. I probably should just stick to what works for me.
You're exaggerating the case. The biggest prohibitionists circa 1870-1930, were the baptists, who were not motivated by racism at all when it came to prohibition. Rockefeller's baptist circle were the largest funders of prohibition at the time. Rockefeller also did more for black people during that era than any other single individual. The prohibition tie to racism is weak at best, which is to say these contexts differ widely; trying to apply that one cover story to all of them is more than a stretch.
Perhaps this always applies for manual testing. When it comes to automated testing and something like Android, it can potentially take much longer, especially with the architecture that allows easy testing.
Hmm, looks like you may be right. While it’s a different issue from the one I initially raised (since there is no UI offering me to share this URL), it might be a deal breaker.
I also interviewed with Apple in Cupertino and they gave me a clear reason why they passed on me. So either Apple is immune to the US legal system or all this talk about lawsuits is hogwash.
There's a very solid argument. The Constitution explicitly says that Congress has the right to grant copyright "[t]o promote the progress of science and useful arts." Since extending copyright after a thing already exists cannot possibly cause it to exist MORE, it doesn't seem to be within Congress's power. And also, if Congress continues to extend copyrights by 10 years every 10 years, it also is no longer a "limited time."

Both of these arguments were put before the Supreme Court in 2003 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eldred_v._Ashcroft), and the argument lost 7-2. Somewhat unusually, the it was not a party-line decision.

Main issue is memory usage. Running KDE+Kate -
http://vps2.etotheipiplusone.com:30176/redmine/emscripten-qt... - uses 1793MB (htop VIRT), 416MB (Chrome task manager). (Oh, and the renderer process wasn't hosting any other tabs.)

Second main issue is speed. qsterix isn't as memory-heavy but runs all Tetris game code inside KDE JavascriptCore, which as part of the KDE/Emscripten build is transpiled to JS. In other words, http://vps2.etotheipiplusone.com:30176/redmine/emscripten-qt... is JavaScript inside JavaScript, and on my reasonable-but-not-last-week-new i3 box, I experience a small pause that I can't explain when I hit the spacebar to drop a block.

This is one of my biggest complaints with online articles.

If you mention a new research paper making a wild claim, why not share the publication info? By omitting the source, they make it harder for people to verify the veracity of their claims.
