Agree w/the other poster. It really can depend on the person. And not everyone has the self-awareness / background knowledge to prepare themselves well.

Not unlike how some people don't handle alcohol well.

Because of the shift in perspective caused by psychedelics, I think beginning, if nothing else, with a friend is a very, very good idea. Plus the benefit of an informed outside perspective is one of the pluses of therapy.

Forget the dirt road. Rural solutions for water/sewage/power work because their viability is not dependent on close geographic proximity. Its apparent that the urban solution being applied to suburban areas is not viable, so why not flip things around the other way?

Was born 1980, Started programming in the 80's - ZX Spectrum and later PC.

Friend introduced me to Linux around RH4 days so 1997 - was love at first sight and it became my primary OS by 1999 (when I got my own desktop) and has been ever since.

Programming wise I started selling code in 96, worked factories, trained as an electrician, worked retail for a few years doing stuff on the side for extra cash, someone I'd done work for recommended me for a job (though I didn't realise that it was a job interview, I just thought they wanted some development doing, true story), accepted that job worked my arse off and changed job ever 2-3 years until I was a lead developer where I'm happy (turned down management roles a couple of times over the years).

Funny path I guess.

Pros and Cons?
I've read this paper in the past. Like many papers, it has some powerful results, but I think it overclaims on correlation vs causation.

What is true is teachers overrate girl's performance earlier in school compared to boys, then girls catch up and overtake, often approaching their teacher's predictions. This might well be a case of matching expectations. Another, to me reasonable, explanation for the results is that teacher's grading includes potential, based on their experience. It's hard to know, and would be very hard to ethically test.

This area deserves more research, and less sgouty arguments, but there isn't a clear cut answer.
I met someone who's best friend committed suicide while sober. Those stories of suicide on psychs usually turn out to be fabrications, exaggerations or miscalculated cause and effect.
> There has to be more to the story here. With the law starting in 2006, why are authorities just now going after these bars?

The law states that businesses must keep some log in case an investigation about patrons' net usage requires it. It's not checked every day, but when an investigation happens and you got nothing to show, you get prosecuted.

Pretty similar to accounting, the minute details of your accounting won't get checked every year, but you must keep them available for the tax service.
Yes.

Just a comment from the late great George Carlin in regards to environmental issues like this;

"Besides, there is nothing wrong with the planet... nothing wrong with the planet. The planet is fine... the people are fucked! Difference! The planet is fine! Compared to the people, THE PLANET IS DOING GREAT: Been here four and a half billion years! Do you ever think about the arithmetic? The planet has been here four and a half billion years, we’ve been here what? 100,000? Maybe 200,000? And we’ve only been engaged in heavy industry for a little over 200 years. 200 years versus four and a half billion and we have the conceit to think that somehow, we’re a threat? That somehow, we’re going to put in jeopardy this beautiful little blue-green ball that’s just a-floatin’ around the sun? The planet has been through a lot worse than us. Been through all kinds of things worse than us: been through earthquakes, volcanoes, plate tectonics, continental drifts, solar flares, sunspots, magnetic storms, the magnetic reversal of the poles, hundreds of thousands of years of bombardment by comets and
asteroids and meteors, worldwide floods, tidal waves, worldwide fires, erosion, cosmic rays, recurring ice ages, and we think some plastic bags and aluminum cans are going to make a difference?

The planet isn’t going anywhere... we are! We’re going away! Pack your shit folks! We’re going away and we won’t leave much of a trace either, thank God for that... maybe a little styrofoam... maybe... little styrofoam. The planet will be here, we’ll be long gone; just another failed mutation; just another closed-end biological mistake; an evolutionary cul-de-sac. The planet will shake us off like a bad case of
fleas, a surface nuisance. You wanna know how the planet’s doing? Ask those people in Pompeii who are frozen into position from volcanic ash how the planet’s doing. Wanna know if the planet’s all right? Ask those people in Mexico City or Armenia or a hundred other places buried under thousands of tons of earthquake rubble if they feel
like a threat to the planet this week. How about those people in Kilauea, Hawaii who build their homes right next to an active volcano and then wonder why they have lava in the living room?"

BTW, you people that keep down voting me because I don't agree with your position, trying to shut me down, stopping me from expressing my opinion, you guys, are fascists.

Don't believe me about climate change scaremongering, here is a long list over the past 50 years of failed environmental disasters....

Learning a new language is often accompanied by the very real feeling of your "mind expanding." I think that's because being able to understand/speak another language is almost like experiencing a whole new world; another rich set of culture, people, literature, etc different from yours suddenly become very much accessible.

The Wittgenstein adage

> The limits of my language mean the limits of my world

rings true for me.
Wi-Fi 6 Explained: The Next Generation of Wi-Fi
LSD induced psychosis is stronger and pretty much overrides any bipolar psychosis I've ever had. My bipolar visual hallucinations typically lasted seconds to minutes, typically only happened during deep anxiety, and could be shooken off. LSD hallucinations last multiple hours, are very strong, happen in any mental state, and can't be shooken off.

Bipolar psychosis is a lot weaker, feels more like religion, can last many weeks. The scariest types of psychosis are the ones that are hard to distinguish from the real world. Talking to trees while in psychosis is easy to talk yourself through. Believing someone wants to marry you is a much harder psychosis to reason through, and can result in badly damaged friendships if you don't figure it out in time.

LSD psychosis is strong and warped and pretty much always dispelled easily as soon as you are in a calm frame of mind.

I've found that in the weeks following a trip, bipolar cycles are much more tame and manageable.

I know other bipolar individuals who also found similar relief in LSD.
If I had a time machine, rather than killing Hitler, I'd go back and convince them to make the ethernet header 16 bytes rather than 14 in order to keep things nicely aligned.

A 14 byte header causes lots of alignment issues.. I first encountered this on DEC Alpha, pre-byte/word extensions. When using network drivers not designed for alpha, the kernel would take an alignment fault when accessing 4-byte IP addresses which were aligned on a 2 byte boundary.

Many decades ago, I made some of this stuff in the chemistry lab at school at lunchtime—although, obviously, it wasn't an officially sanctioned experiment!

(Those were the days when black powder was not only made in the lab and the teacher demonstrated the method and we tested the result but also we had to know the chemical equations and work out the optimal ratio of the three ingredients as part of the chemistry curriculum.)

Now, you perhaps think me a lunatic or at least stupidly reckless. Perhaps so, but I did give it considerable forethought and I'm still here complete with all my bodily bits.

No, I'm not going to go into explicit details for obvious reasons but I'll say this much. I made the smallest amount that was practical to make and I achieved this by measuring the reagents out with an eye dropper. I chose the narrowest test tube I could get as the nitro separates out into a layer and I had to have sufficient product to cover the CSA of the test tube (so I could see its meniscus). Oh, and the lab gear was very clean and I used BP-grade reagents to stop any contamination. (In those days, we had important/key reagents in BP-grade at school as we budding chemists were expected to know their taste (but only BP-grade was used for this purpose). They were diluted to a weak N/40 or so and we tasted them! Can you imagine that ever happening now? Not likely, oh how we overprotect our poor little darlings these days.)

I carried out the reaction in winter which meant the reagents had to be heated to the recommended reaction temperature which was only a few degrees above the lab's ambient (it was easier to heat up the large bottles of regents rather than cool them). I was careful to hold the recommended reaction temperature as accurately as I could but it wasn't difficult with the reaction being only a little above ambient.

Everything went according to plan and it was done according to book (this included even cleaning (neutralizing) the final product with sodium carbonate to eliminate residual acid (from one of the reagents).

Did it go bang as expected? Yes! Was anything damaged? Nothing during manufacture, and nothing of any consequence during testing. Did the chemistry teacher find out? No! Did other kids participate? Yes, two others (but for some reason they quickly left the lab when I mixing the reagents). How did I know what to do? The procedure was well documented in a large general book on organic chemistry of about 800 pages given to me by my father. It described dozens of chemical processes in detail such a Haber's nitrogen fixing and how to make various nasties, such as HCN, in industrial quantities. Whilst it may not seem like it, I was reasonably responsible around chemicals and I still am.

Your take is completely incorrect, unsurprisingly, given you haven’t even seen it.
Wrong Again. 50 Years of Failed Eco-Apocalyptic Predictions
There are various initiatives to attract more male teachers, but research suggests that the low status and pay of teaching deter men from entering education.

Raising the respect and salary of teachers would be a good starting point. Preferential hiring to balance the gender ratio of role models in a school may be helpful as well.

> For the smaller cafés, even if they knew they had to, I'm not sure they would have the technical know-how to maintain logs.

There are cheap off-the-shelf solutions marketed specifically for bars to setup public wifis.

> If torrenting or some other form of piracy happens on a network, ISPs send letters to that IP's customer, giving them a warning. Perhaps these café owners were repeatedly warned to enact stricter measures against piracy (i.e. logs)

The thing that happened here is not related to HADOPI, the worst that can happen to you with hadopi is losing your internet service or having to pay a fine.

The likely thing that happened is that some patron did something illegal enough to warrant a court order asking the ISP to provide logs, the logs led to the bar which couldn't provide their own logs. ISP rates for court orders are expensive, so the police is unlikely to enjoy this dead end.

The "garde a vue" was probably unnecessary, but this kind of overreach is common in France.

To me, it is very saddening (but still it is reality) that organisms have been forced to evolve with a "kill or be killed" biological wiring.

You'll see that on certain Galapagos islands, where no natural predators exist for the iguana, the iguana is completely docile to all other organisms around it. What's even cooler is that the iguana also only eats seaweed and algae, which means it does not need to kill other animals to survive. It has developed evolutionary adaptations to subsist on this diet as well, such as nasal glands that remove excess harmful salt from their bodies.

I am a firm believer that all of the war and crime you see in the world is driven by some biological wiring that most of us continental organism possess, from ants to humans.

If we had all evolved to be more like iguanas, I wonder if society would have made more (or less!) technological and societal progress, given that a lot of technological advancements come from the demands of war--

but war is not a necessary condition for technological advancement now is it?

Long live the Galapagos iguana!

British teaching unions shot it down - said it was misogynistic to hire men as it implied women weren’t doing a good enough job. This logic of course doesn’t apply to tech.

I'm not a well expert, but from what I've read is that chemical runoff could get into shallow sandpoint wells, but if you drill a 200ft deep well, that water is millions of years old.
It appears to cost money to access the actual paper and the abstract does indicate the means by which this bias is applied. Without that important detail this only points to speculation and assumptions.

Incorrect. Netflix does not attempt to change your real world behaviour.
>>Compared to the fact that this is not an issue of a lack of resources?

It is an issue of a lack of resources; places with fewer resources have more poverty.

Assuming the resources of humanity are collectively owned and should be equally shared is not realistic. The very resource expansion you allude to has depended on private property rights - people keeping what they earn. There is no realistic alternate history where wealth increases as fast as it did, and is equally distributed.

The private property ruleset has resulted in the massive increase in productivity and decrease in poverty that we have witnessed. The progress is more rapid than during any other period in history, and other periods of history are all we have to compare to.

>>Extreme poverty in the midst of an extremely rich world.

On a per capita basis, the world is not extremely rich..

The last 40-50 years have been pretty stable. But even so I’d guess that 20% of world governments have functionally gone out of business.

If you pick the 20th century, then the number of governments that have “failed” is really large as a proportion of total governments. We think of countries like France as having been around for hundreds of years, but their current constitution is only 62 years old. Romania had three different governments in about 50 years. Japan, China, and Vietnam all replaced their governments. Czechoslovakia came into being and disappeared.
Thanks for posting this. Good timing.
1. Going into this, you need to research a ton.
2. Know someone that sells it. Or look for a field for them and go hunting. Or grow them, spores are legal and you can buy everything you need online.
You do for an AGI, because human-level intelligence is too complex to describe in a specification.
It's too late now I suppose but I also offer 30 days support for using the product including this free demo. You keep the disks and manuals. It is a give away. I am surprised people don't want a free Samsung FIT drive 128GB. It's a nice drive! I guess the demo result I'd like to see is whether the demo'ers decide to format over OEM Studio for their own use or not.
It's also available for Linux. If the developer doesn't already own a Mac and have a paid Apple developer account they are probably not going to make back their money buying those things in order to make a Mac build.
> Like maybe not EVERYBODY has their own well/septic, but maybe every 5 houses or whatever share one?

Anecdotally, it seems fairly common for people to have municipal water and their own septic system in more "exurb-y" areas. Two of the people I work with (different states) have that setup.

It seems to be common because water treatment facilities are more efficient at scale, whereas a septic is pretty easy to maintain yourself.

I share your curiosity. It’s funny how this article uses “Greedhead,” “packaging,” and “ata” as if I should know what this is.

There’s lots of “fuckfaces” so Simon seems really passionate.

I found this definition “in which agencies collect fees from the production studio behind a project.” [0] So I guess it’s when talent agents get kickbacks from studios.

So I guess it makes sense as any money the studio pays agents means less money to writers, but it’s funny to me such an issue that would make a really good writer and journalist totally suck at describing a situation.

I’ve heard from a friend whose a special ed teacher that there effectively is a strong desire for male teachers in these grades. But there’s also so much need in this space that there’s a desire for any credentialed teacher.

It’s not really like software engineering where people have to know algorithms and do whiteboard exercises. It’s about credentials and desire.
Well, to be technical, it says in the Factorio about page that it's heavily inspired by a Minecraft mod called Buildcraft, so you could trace the genre back to there.

>If we want to give AI a Asimovian ethic, we're just concerned with making it do what we want it to do.

Isn't that the whole point of most "safe AGI" research? Not that it's necessarily a good thing, but I imagine that if there was a chance that the most ethical option was in fact to destroy all humans, most people would prefer AI to have "do what we want it do" ethics than "do what's most ethical" ethics.
