I realize this is a site about the past, but I really hope this is the future. I want an internet of specialty sites, browsable curations, diversity of offering, freedom of choice, and full of the quirky/unusual. It might have to do with growing up in the 90s and experiencing that kind of world wide web, w/o walled gardens.

Several years back, perhaps even via an HN post or comment, I came across a blog, hosted on a university network (IIRC, perhaps related to media studies). The page consisted of a group of possibly graduate students contributing some of the weirdest and most obscure media I've ever seen online. Nothing obscene and nothing seemingly new/current, so it was rather hipster in that sense, but I kick myself for not having saved the URL.

Nothing says I need to use walled gardens or get my news from the big networks, but I often feel I'm being pointed that way. In the end, I just want something different than what's usually being served up.

(It doesn't escape me that this 90's TV site is full of walled garden/big network type content of the time)
I thought I'd seen it all. Advocating for racial equity is now considered racist. You heard it here first, folks.
Yeah it wasn't until after I moved from C++ to other languages that I changed my mind on this (ESE appears to be primarily C++).

When you can 100% rely on your IDE to give you the metadata about a variable using color and/or hover pop-ups, storing that same metadata in the variable name just feels heavy and unnecessary. With C++ IDEs, you will never get 100% accuracy, so you might as well give in and go with Hungarian.

Your narrative describes alcohol and cannabis usage, on the one hand, and work achievements on the other hand. I understand that you are using that latter as a way to establish the benefits of the former, or at least to show an absence of detrimental effect.

But can you can identify why you might be reaching for psychoactive substances in the first place? Did you experience depression, anxiety, or trauma that you have been troubled by and need to blank out?

You mentioned "group pressure", but that on its own doesn't seem pervasive enough to warrant a lifestyle. Do you have any ideas about why you want to consume psychoactive substances chronically? I'm not saying you have to have a reason, or that you have to be aware of one, or that you have to share it here. I'm just curious for more information as context for your anecdotal narrative.

Does anyone else in your family use psychoactive drugs as a lifestyle choice?

They are a skeleton because they were not a tech culture and so totally missed the online travel boat. And online maps boat. And online review boat.

Most people book their hotels and flights online, and not by calling an agent. No one needs a trip tic, they have google maps and a host of other on demand guides in their pockets. There’s no way Aaa could provide it’s old services in a cost effective way when there would be so little demand.
I would love to see how irrational the market can get. I think we will see the limits of what is possible pushed in this century. I’m bullish!
It's a pretty varied group defined around a negative. That's like asking whether atheists believe a specific positive statement about the world. That said, to try to answer your question, my guess is left anarchists would say "absolutely not, capitalism is full of unjust hierarchy and the profit motive is bad news altogether", and right anarchists would say, "there's no such thing as the collective interest, but nobody gets to violate the individual rights of anyone else for whatever motive".
I agree with you. I've worked at several startups and they start with 'productive' languages like python, ruby, and PHP. These are great for getting something up and running easily.

Everything looks great at the beginning. They have features, customers and a growing codebase full of technical debt. Debt that I think would be greatly reduced if the code was compiled.

Maybe it is the price you need to pay to be successful but I doubt it.
I don’t like the term myself, but I think it is fair to acknowledge that plenty of people are disadvantaged due to their skin color, race, religion etc.

For instance I know I have more opportunities because I am white, belonging to western culture and culturally Christian (I am an atheist by celebrate Christmas and all that), than I would have had if I was black or muslim while living in the West.

But this is not uniform. My opportunities if I looked Asian would likely be very similar to looking white.

It isn’t a mystery that a culture favors people looking like themselves. Had I grown up in Japan I am sure I would have been at a disadvantage for not looking Japanese.

Which ironically enough, seems to be the definition itself of "personal experience".

>To treat people differently you would have to start basing income tax rates on characteristics of a person, such as race, sexual identity, age or height (like in your previous analogy)

Characteristics like their marriage status, the number of children they have, the status of their home, their status as a student, or even the specific example you used of age which is tied to all sorts of taxation issues?

Although I'm not sure there is any point to continuing the conversation if you are going to nitpick any analogy and refuse to recognize that your views on taxation are an extreme minority opinion.

I highly recommend reddit.com/r/NewMaxx as the clearinghouse for consumer SSD news and Q&A. I'm not aware of a similarly comprehensive forum for enterprise storage, where this thread would probably be a better fit.

> Or maybe simply selling tusks is profitable and there does not need to be a feedback loop for elephants to go extinct.

but that's not logical, because if selling tusks is profitable, then more people will want to join in, thus increasing the number of tusks being sold (implying more elephants being killed for it). Until profit goes away due to drop of demand at least.

Secondly Facebook has 11 categories of online harm, 1 of which is nudity.

> https://transparency.facebook.com/community-standards-enforc...

The list is:

Adult Nudity and Sexual Activity

Bullying and Harassment

Child Nudity and Sexual Exploitation of Children

Dangerous Organizations: Terrorism

Dangerous Organizations: Organized Hate

Fake Accounts

Hate Speech

Regulated Goods: Drugs

Regulated Goods: Firearms

Spam

Suicide and Self-Injury

Violent and Graphic Content

Adult nudity is 0.05%-0.06% of all content views. That is the same rate for violent and graphic content. This means people somewhere, are going through millions of pictures of graphic violence.

I did biphasic sleep in high school (1.5h nap at 16:30, 4.5h sleep at 2:00) for my junior and part of senior year, and it was incredible. It allowed me to do nearly all of my homework right when it was assigned while also having time for my hobbies. Starting the homework right after the nap was great for focus and productivity.

A veteran of the 60's here. Silly-cybin was definitely the hallucinogen of choice. Nary a bad time and days upon days of sweetness and light afterwards. I can readily understand how it might be efficacious for depression. LSD however, normally left you feeling like your dog had died.

Create an AI which understands the intent of a piece of content then.

Moderation is the job of editors and journalists being lost to social media and the internet.

All those millions of local news papers and reporters who had to make judgement calls on whether some content should be displayed, or whether it was not newsworthy?

That is part of what content moderation is, that process debt that SM firms don't want to pay for.

Im glad to hear it was effective for you.

Just curious, what were the static aspects of your personality that it helped with, if you’re willing to go into more detail?
I do not recommend this. MDMA is a much better experience socially than by your lonesome - from a ton of personal experience.

You would be better suited to a solo mushroom or LSD experience, coming from someone who spent her 20s doing such things. YMMV, but just from almost a decade of experience, there are much, much better substances for solo healing experiences.

I do not recommend any illegal substances but would not condone the use of MDMA in the appropriate social setting for the purposes of personal healing as I have had positive experiences myself with it. I have also seen people take it way, way too far. Again - YMMV.
I borrowed for 6 years at 0.0% on my last car purchase. Even taking into account the portion of insurance that was surplus to the expected value of the insurance, that was about the cheapest money I could find.
I realized this comment carries more pith than meaning, as it were, and thought I'd expound.

Communities censor in benign ways all the time. Most successful online forums regularly remove posts that are spam, self-promoting, or flamebait. They also remove contributions that are off-topic: completely harmless posts that just don't happen to be what the community wants to focus on. Celebrity gossip on a tech site, say.

Some places are more wild-west than others and that's fine. The point is that while the word "censorship" has a negative ring to it, most censorship is mundane and unobjectionable.

It's not okay (in USA culture) for the government to set community standards, not because standards are bad, but because the organization that controls guns and prisons is already terrifying enough without it being able to control speech too.

Google and Apple (and Facebook and Twitter) are in an in-between space. Their platforms are much too large to be a "community" in the traditional sense, but as private organizations they're still obligated to moderate. And when they get it wrong, the results can be devastating to the individuals affected, both in false-positive cases like this one, and false-negative cases where their cold machinery fails to protect victims of real harassment.

With more, smaller networks, there's no such tension. You can visit a network that lets you post all the hate speech you want. I can visit one that blacklists yours and every one like yours. And neither of us has to give two bits how odious we find each other's spaces.
I'd love to hear more, but I'm not sure what to ask. I guess I'll ask the easiest thing to ask, but the hardest to answer. How do you feel now compared to how you felt then?
MDMA has a very different profile compared to the majority of psychedelics, marijuana changes perception of reality far more than MDMA.

Are you sure it's undertones on authority or on corruption and regulatory capture that conveniently lead, misguided government and its powers to demonize what are turning out to be far more effective treatment options than the patentable medications big pharma promotes?
PTSD?
We agree then, the size factor has not been really outperforming since it was introduced in the nineties. Maybe the drivers of the outperformace were things like transaction costs and lack of information which are less of an issue in recent times.

For what it’s worth, the value factor is not doing well recently either...
And still. If I can upload some text document or private picture with a web-browser onto some web host, then that web browser can also send that picture anywhere else to spy on me. Unless I need to give it permission every time I wish to do something such as that, which would be very cumbersome.

But yes, it's true that issues with the cache can be resolved with this, but not saving outside of a single file path, and whatever utility that then moves the file outside of that single path would still need full permissions or be granted permissions.

It can be done, but at the cost of a great deal of convenience and restrictions.

Yeah, nothing about a logical fallacy says it can't be useful just that it's not strict logical proof. As such it's useful to call out that a logical fallacy doesn't equate to/overrule direct evidence or sound logic but that doesn't mean things behind the indirect evidence or unsound logic are inherently 100% useless information in decisions or discussions.

I'm in the same boat as I went through multiple antidepressants with nothing to show for taking them over the last few years.

The way I turned it around was self medication with microdosing THC. Not sure where you are but where I live weed edibles are legal and I can ensure that I always take the same dose. Depending on how I feel I consume 2.5 mg of THC every other day and occasionally do a weekend blast with 10mg. Since I do that no more than once per week I can still get high on mere as little as 7.5mg and it gives me a mood boost for a couple of days and if I hit the funk I'll microdose with 2.5mg once per day. Been doing this for a few months and it's working like a charm. I hope I don't build up tolerance and lose the effect over time.

The aim here is really to get the optimisations for free rather than basically building an ad hoc system that does the same thing - there is a large gap in the compiler literature for optimisations like this - there is a need for a new 1000-pager at the moment, all the books are older than modern microarchitectures now, let alone the more theoretical things mentioned previously.

You can already get some serious performance increases by giving the compiler information - if I assert two arrays have equal length in D, I can then add an inline statement equivalent to GCC's builtin_unreachable and the compiler does s surprisingly good job of eliding length checks that it normally can't assume.
> the rights of rational citizens to get essential health care during a public emergency begin.

The US’ legal framework isn’t really big on Positive rights like that, though. Unless one is a ward of the state or in their custody, no-one has a “right” to healthcare in the US.

I’d love to be wrong about this though.

Wait until you hear about ayahuasca.
The radicalization and deployment of citizens to swarm hospitals and retail stores was a concentrated effort by families like DeVos, who funded the 'anti-mask' protests that led to the assassination plot against my state governor.

I cannot express this enough. In my city of Grand Rapids the DeVos funded Michigan Freedom Fund brought militias to my streets calling Whitmer a tyrant. They stood on stage with law enforcement making these screeds.

Fast forward, thousands and thousands of deaths later, a DeVos facility is going to be used for mass vaccination.

These people are seeking return on their investment and in some cases succeeding wildly. All it cost was thousands of deaths and insurrectionist plots to take over places like my state capitol building.

Later another plot to take over the national capitol building.

This has gone on too far. I literally had militants in my streets. I'm tired of it. I'm tired of families like the Mercers funding things like Cambridge Analytica, raising Trump to power. Then later funding things like Parler, which along with properties like thedonald dot win were apparently pivotal to a lot of the militant's plans.

The people knee-jerk rushing to defend their incitement to political and biological as being free speech are just as tiresome as the gunmen are. And there are plenty of those on this site.
> It's also true that existing power nexus like these farmer brokers who are spearheading the protest. You may ask where they get their money from go continue the protest? Basically from the existing network of exporters of fruits, vegetables, grains etc... These farmering group head ask for bribes and favours and then sell government subsidized produce to select companies who rendered those favours.

Can you please address the issues highlighted by the farmers instead of speculating on where they obtain funding from? In particular how will the passage of the farm bills prevent this practice that you claim exists? As I see it, it would just allow large players to gobble up the competition (ala Jio).
