This company is awesome, their integration into online mortgages and various third-party platform home purchase listings/offerings makes them especially suited to take over as things continue to progress in purchasing and closing homes entirely online. I recently closed on a home through better.com and lemonade is integrated quite well there as one of the options. Much of their revenue comes from new homeowners and it definitely shows why.
I get this sentiment.

I also think that the problem is misrepresentation then, and not authorship.
Maybe because psychedelics don't teach you any new "objective" information but rather a completely different (and convincing) way to interpret the information you already had.

"Our perception of time flow is just an illusion". Any smart person understands what that sentence means, but the default state of your brain is believing the illusion, so you don't really feel it, you only understand the concept.

When I was on LSD, time flow being an illusion was the default state of my brain. No need to make a mental effort to understand anything. It felt as natural as breathing.

But it's hard to explain these natural things without sounding line a crazy person.
Wow! What are the problems you encountered upgrading Node releases? I noticed how they removed tail-call optimization, which broke Lamdu.
Probably a better explanation is everything is whole. The problem is you are trying to envision it from the perspective of analysis, when what they are describing is a visualization of their feelings, emotions, and perceptions sometimes we don't understand our feelings, psychedelics given the right circumstances can change the perceptions of our feelings and emotions, rewire our inputs and cause us to visualize/hear/physically feel them. That is why it sounds like gibberish when someone tried to describe them. It would be akin, to all the sudden you vision and touch where reversed, how would you describe touching blue, or seeing cold, how would anyone who has never experienced it relate.

This is also why, it can be an effective mental health tool, because it rewires inputs and outputs and allows different parts of our brain to experience our feelings or our thoughts. Sometimes profound ideas come from it, sometime it just a bunch of dumb gibberish.
at least sometimes they've done blind experiments with an "active placebo" - give the subject something like Ritalin that makes you feel like you've taken a drug, but no psychedelic effect
>Upgrading between node releases has been painful to me

This is surprising to me. What kind of deps do you have that are changing? From my view starting around Node 4, only Buffer really went thru big API refactors, and otherwise going LTS -> next LTS is seamless

MIT startup wraps food in silk for better shelf life
Definitely. I need something different because I have some sort of treatment-resistant major depression that cannot be addressed with anything but medication, regardless of life circumstances, mood, health, or exercise. Although I'm not all that keen on psychedelics and disassociatives, I've tried at least 13 antidepressants and only 1 of them has done anything. The only one that's worked has been mirtazapine* with the caveats of partial GI paralysis and major weight gain. I was on it for 9 years. I tried others as my cognitive faculties and alertness have been declining over the past 2 years.

* Which is also a powerful antihistamine.

I'm beginning to wonder about the medical establishment's depth of understanding and nuance on treatment of serious depression and inability to address so-called treatment-resistant depression. For example, genetics, inflammation, auto-immune issues, diet, GI flora, and other factors that don't seem to be considered clinically. And then there's psychiatry, which is one of the few "medical professions" that doesn't directly test or examine the organ or systems they claim to treat. Psychiatry in particular seems unscientific, arbitrary, and crude.

I don't think there's any panacea, even shrooms, ketamine, or LSD, but the neuropharmacological field has a long way to go and depression is only going to become more commonplace.

Yeah there's definitely a lot of entitlement from people in open source/volunteer projects. I will just say that as programmers we're far better equipped to handle the frustration of errors and have the patience to solve problems on our own. These things do often get out of hand though as I've seen in many GitHub issues.

Anyone who cooks Sous Vide knows the value of the Maillard reaction. You can cook perfectly rare meat in the water bath, but the taste is mediocre. Hit that steak with a torch, broil it briefly, or drop it on a piping hot cast iron skillet and it turns into magic. We just did some ribs last night for about 90 minutes in the sous vide and 4 minutes each side on the broiler and they were amazing.
Agreed - although we should still heavily support the alternatives because a healthy ecosystem for search does not mean having one near-monopoly.
The best way I can describe it is, before you experience anything like that, you are only aware of the normal/sober extents that your mind uses, and afterwards you realize that most the dials/knobs/gradients/ups/downs you've experienced are only within a small threshold of what your brain is capable of. Experiencing that allows you to have a better understanding of where your thoughts/emotions/experience fall on those spectrums the rest of your life. It puts the range you normally operate into perspective.

Think of it as a kind of messy recalibration, a jostle of the box of your mind. Jostling your box occasionally can help you sometimes break through a local optima to a more global optima, shaking the fuck out of your brain all the time, well, it'll probably make you creative but no guarantees anyone else will understand you.

You can't really do a double blind trial.

The therapy in question isn't replacing your prozac with magic mushrooms, it is a series of brief intense therapy sessions where the patient is given a dose and talked to while they are under the influence of the drug.

It's just really obvious to everyone involved whether the patent got psilocybin, LSD, or whatever else. Double blinds would work to an extent with dosages, but still limited.

You can't do a double blind study of the effects of lighting someone's hair on fire on their ability to solve math problems, that's about the realm of the situation here.

Pseudo-patronage, or charity-software, it's the new model being pushed by GAFAM (and Palantir) in order to access to digital public services markets in the EU. It's quite certainly illegal though - procurement regulations, etc., but nobody seems to care, especially not in the local software industry. No wonder the EU are so much behind when it comes to digital industry. They don't even try to fight.
My first "trip" I came away with the following insights, which I would not describe as particularly profound.

First, that I could sometimes be too hard on myself, for no benefit.

Second, that I had a tendency to drive my body around like a crappy old station wagon I didn't care about, some kind of hand-me-down; I realized "I am the station wagon, when I wreck this one, that's it."

Each subsequent trip did leave me with a kind of refreshed feeling, like I had the vents blown out and the floor scrubbed. That's about as ineffable as I got. Perhaps I lack imagination.

I guess I installed Alacritty right away on this new computer, so I have just found and tested the GNOME Terminal option. You just open Preferences from the hamburger menu, choose Shortcuts on the left, and find "Copy Ctrl+Shift+C". Double-click the Ctrl+Shift+C part and press Ctrl+C.

And I should say I'm not sure if it's sending SIGINT or actually Ctrl+C (or if that's even different). I learned just enough of this to make it work :-) But before, if I started top, I could press Ctrl+C to quit it. Now I can press Ctrl+Shift+C to quit it, and pressing Ctrl+Shift+C on a bash prompt prints "^C" and I get a new line.

For Alacritty, here's what I've changed

- { key: V, mods: Control, action: Paste }
- { key: C, mods: Control, action: Copy }
- { key: C, mods: Control|Shift, chars: "\x03" }
- { key: W, mods: Control, chars: "\x04" }
- { key: N, mods: Control, action: SpawnNewInstance }

The xkb option for PCs is altwin:ctrl_alt_win, I think it's the "Control is mapped to Alt keys, Alt is mapped to Win keys" option if you use GNOME Tweaks, under Alt/Win key behavior. For a Mac keyboard, ctrl:swap_lwin_lctl,ctrl:swap_rwin_rctl, "Swap Left Win key with Left Ctrl key" under Ctrl key position.

I would say that I struggled with depression for a good chunk of my life. Then I tried some psychedelic drugs, very low doses in a safe environment and things changed dramatically very quickly. It is as close to night and day difference I think I have ever experienced. I still have my issues but they are much more in line with just the challenges of life as compared to before when just getting out of bed was nearly impossible.

This article is not about whether white people can wear kimonos. Author Richard Russo wrote a well received story about a Belgian nun, with details drawn from a nun that he met in real life. He is not, nor has he ever been, a Belgian or a nun. He is not apologetic about writing a fictionalized life of someone quite unlike himself, but he ruminates at length about the power of an author's imagination, the limits of that power, its wise exercise, and the ways it seizes authors as well as being seized by them.

Russo also wrote a book that revealed very private details of his late mother's life. Did he owe her still-living friends and relatives silence until they too were gone? The conclusion is: no, authors write about what seizes their attention. But he doesn't really seek to absolve himself. It's more like an addict talking about addiction: "I took another drink, because that's the compulsion I felt."

The well-received story about a Belgian nun was received mostly among his English-language readers in the United States. Not nuns or Belgians. What was the Belgian nun reception like? Russo doesn't know. He suspects it would be less enthusiastic, because they would spot the cracks in his story more readily. The closer the readers are to the life experience of the characters, and the further the author is from his characters, the more the author risks readers' trust in trying to write those characters.

There's also a characterization-gap risk regarding authors and other authors as well as regarding authors and readers. If Russo sells novels with characterizations of Belgian nuns or black men, what does that do to the literary prospects of actual Belgian nuns or black men who are trying to sell their first manuscript? Can he end up non-maliciously but thoroughly quashing their publishability just by showing up first, even if his nuns are less authentic than those written by an actual nun? Quite possibly, yes. Russo posits that the struggle for position among authors has become more desperate in recent years. Publishers aren't as patient about investing in new talent because they are facing more financial pressure. That means that established authors like himself can casually, even accidentally, displace authors who could draw better portraits of certain kinds of characters. That's unfortunate for those would-be authors and for the reading public.

Those eggs are not being levitated above the surface. I guarantee it. The pan would need be to be red hot to maintain the leidenfrost effect with a pan full of eggs. As anyone who has played around with the leidenfrost effect knows, since there is essentially no friction the little droplets of water skate around like pucks on an air hockey table. When you put your eggs in your hot pan cooking an omelette they do not float and flip out the side of the pan as they would if they were experiencing the leidenfrost effect.

I really dislike this type of argument (not yours, the one you describe).

The idea that nobody but East Germans could write a fiction involving the Stasi is ridiculous, as is the idea that only East Germans are objective about it. And it’s not like it was a documentary any more that Doctor Strangelove (which also nailed it despite being imaginary) was. It’s fine that different people have different views, and I’d actually be very interested in an East German point of view.

But viewing History from outside is actually very valuable as well. There have been some American films on some historical events in my country, some of them good, some of them bad, but most of them interesting and instructive thanks to the foreign perspective.

How are you supposed to develop any form of empathy if you’re not allowed to put yourself in someone else’s shoes? How are you supposed to distance yourself and get a broader perspective if your point of view is the only one you accept?

Ultimately, malice is the problem, not the fact that people write about others. Some have Americans playing as foreigners. What’s the problem? There are lots of English playing Americans.
They are more expensive because they generally have higher quality components and are not made to be disposable, and commercial applications have a higher price tolerance than consumers.

It might be small _because_ we freak out about it. Kind of like New Zealand's COVID-19 numbers (or other countries with aggressive prevention / mitigation methods).

Idea Inclusion and Team Thinking for Scale
How often is it that we dismiss the uniqueness of a problem, over-simplify and jump to actions, only to be found out later that we acted incorrectly? When you are moving fast this can be the default, but it doesn’t have to be.

Last week I talked about starting with scale in mind to ensure that when we do achieve product<>market fit, there is a path to scale instead of toiling for incremental gains. This week I shift focus to a theme of inclusiveness for ideas and rewards that encourages talent to compete as a unit, not as individuals, towards a common external purpose.
