I've done plenty of drugs and also have hobbies like backcountry skiing and mountaineering, having climbed some of the highest peaks in North America. They really aren't the same thing, but what I can say is that the high I had after a 3 week Alaskan expedition has never been matched by substances or anything else.

Unfortunately I can't go on a 3 week expedition every weekend.
The fact that a small black market will still exist does not negate the argument that legalizing drugs would end the gargantuan black market that currently exists, and most of the ills that come along with it.
The drugs used for microdosing are not considered to form physical dependence. Nor have I ever heard of anyone become addicted to psychedelics. Is there a reason your response hinges on addiction?
The issue with microdosing is the lack of ritual. Taking a precut strip before getting started on a task. Compare this to the ritual of going to nature, it's an aberration from your usual ways. You get more benefit, or maybe just meaning from psychedelics by creating ritual. Compare taking an MAOI consuming DMT, vs traveling to a new place and consuming ayahuasca.
> It matters what everyone clicks like on. So you need to be careful there, and also help others be careful.

The OP's title, "Don't Let Social Media Think for You," applies in this context too. Now you can't even click "Like" without being careful -- to be fair I avoid searching political topics and other sports teams on Google unless I'm incognito.

I feel like we're increasingly trapped in a box by these algorithms and the need to keep them appeased.
That's because parents are afraid that their child won't be competitive enough to have a decent life. If only parents were relaxed, if only they knew that their child can live full life without grinding through exercises. Then child just would pursue what they love, interested (unless it's unaffordable to their social strata). I wonder what we can do today to make this happen sooner.

On the side note. There is a great book which makes easier for parents to make piece with themselves: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/35457692-the-self-driven...

> Why shouldn't someone be allowed to take it if they want to?

That's the standard libertarian argument and we have an actual A/B experiment that shows what happens.

People used to be able to market any old thing (such as "snake oil") to cure whatever they wanted to say. A regime was built up over time (culminating in 1963) that you had to demonstrate both safety and efficacy in order to sell a drug, and you could only describe the drug in ways you had demonstrated (which included manufacturing).

In 1994 Orrin Hatch (he of copyright maximization and senator from a state with a lot of "natural" scammers") got a law passed to say that anything "natural" was exempt from any FDA rules and sellers could say whatever they want. And as a result unlocked a huge snake oil business that preys on people when they are feeling most vulnerable. Fortunately most of those things are harmless nonsense but sadly not all.

If you decide there is no need to prove efficacy than nobody would spend time on it. And thus drug had its trials halted because nobody was being cured (not only do you not want to spend money on them, but it's unethical to expose people to side effects of a drug that doesn't help them.

The FDA is saying that even though it's unethical to do in a trial it's OK to do in the market.

Pretty obvious that insurance companies would make a killing here, providing "asset retention" riders.

You get to declare a reasonable value, and if someone wants to buy, but you're not willing to sell at that time, the insurance company negotiates a substitute payment, and works that cost into your retention rider rate going forward.
IBM had massive style guides put together by committees and based on things they'd done for decades before. Some of what they wanted out of the PC was as a poor man's mainframe to potentially get more sales of their mainframes. They wanted DOS to look like the solid, stable System/360 and OS/360 they sold (well, leased in most cases), not some weird upstart UNIX clone from IBM's competitors.
Because this would absolutely shaft everyone other than the well off?

Because there would be no way at all of scaling the tax based on income / wealth? So someone earning almost nothing with no wealth would be expected to pay the same tax as a billionaire?
The general idea is average people don't make 500k/yr. What they might do though is have a one time event that earns them 500k in a single year, like selling a small business or a house. In that one year where they finally did well the tax system comes in and hits them even harder with laws intended for someone who makes 500k every year.
UI refresh, SSO/persistent sessions, and because this crowd might care, the whole app was rewritten from scratch to transition from Angular v1 to React, which simply had to be done and retired an enormous amount of technical debt.
Also reducing frustration. At this point in time its no longer about having the most usage time on a device, it's about quality happy usage time.

If your device annoys the daylights out of you, you certainly won't love it. This is doubly true when you think that there is an entire ecosystem here to think about. You can get messages on your computer, ipad, iPhone and Watch. If you want to focus and can't because it takes several minutes to find and mute notifications on every device... that's very frustrating. Oh and then you might not remember to turn them back on and miss something important later. More frustration.

This makes no sense to me, why is $100 different than a threat to the wife?

Is it because the amount of money is too low?
Certainly not capital gains of the order of "all the spending money I need, without any worry about repaying it on time even if the asset goes back down in price."

In the before times, I commuted to work by bike every day. So I'd check the forecast on weather.com. I learned over time that if the chance of precipitation for the day was >30%, I should bring my rain gear, otherwise I was probably okay. I live in New England, which means there's always a chance of getting caught out, but this worked pretty well.
Wish there was a double upvote button for this. Far too often we assume ignorance when malice/sadism is a more correct diagnosis. (reversing the common adage of not attributing to malice what is better attributed to ignorance)

For example, many of my friends don't understand why Americans like to watch biased news. Many think that it's not a concious choice from most Americans. The reality is that most Americans know that they can watch C-SPAN to avoid being lied to - they just don't do it because it's so fking boring. Americans want to be lied to, much as Twitter users want to mob and destroy "bad people"...
> How did none of the criminals get to see this blog? Did the police intervene and had him remove the blog?

I mean, it's pretty clear to me that (a) criminals are highly unlikely to see this blog and (b) if they did, so what, they wouldn't have understood it/believed it anyway. Half the comments on HN don't give it any credence because it's written by someone whose first language is obviously not English and who likes hyperbolic ALL CAPS, despite the fact that the underlying analysis is valid.

Eh, I imagine this matters a lot more at the lower income levels, due to marginal utility.

If you're living in a trailer park because that's all you can afford, if you treble your income there's a good chance you'd move out right away.

On the other hand, if you own two $150,000 Lamborghinis and a guy moves in next door with only a single $100,000 Ferrari, are you going to be moving out because the neighbourhood is going down hill? Probably not.
Tools like this are great because they give you access to in-context example sentences.

About 3x the number of homeless individuals in New York (state) vs Florida despite roughly similar overall populations, and I don’t think it’s because of how nice or not the weather is in NY!
Right, like in Oregon they recently decriminalized "personal amounts" of all drugs. Crack, heroin, meth, fentanyl, etc. Whatever you want...it's now just a misdemeanor offense like a parking ticket as long as you're under some limit. So personal amounts are "ok," but how does one obtain a "personal" amount from someone else unless they have more than a personal amount? In other words, on one hand it's illegal to deal the drugs, but after you've obtained them illegally it's ok. That logic doesn't square.

> Just because small amounts are decriminalized, it doesn't apply when a person has more than is specified under the law.

> "Possession of larger amounts of drugs, manufacturing and distribution are still crimes," Fox said.

Interestingly, the principal of legality in Brazil has two different meanings:

1. For regular people, it mean that they can do whatever the law doesn't forbid.
2. For public officials, it means they can only do what the law allows.

Funnily enough we are targeting the browser AND FPGAs, and I think the latter is the much more interesting use case for a distributed reactive CRDT-like database.

Datalog is actually trivial to incrementally materialize in open world semantics.
Which is why datomic (while a great foundation in theory) turns out to be non ideal. TxnIDs and retractions are essentially nonmononic negation in disguise, and CALM (consistency as logical monotonicity) a.k.a. distributedness, doesn't go well with that.

Seeing that we're not the only ones dreaming of this gives me hope though, that we might get out of the tar pit someday.
> If all current hardware (i.e. OOO and caches) is vulnerable to speculative side-channel attacks, how they dare to say that is secure?

The software is provably secure. That doesn't mean a complete solution consisting of software and hardware is necessarily secure, and it has never meant that.

PM does not state that the E2EE they provide requires use of GPG. Like I said to others in the thread, it's lying by omission. It's made to sound like a 'it just works' feature when in reality 99% of your emails will never be E2EE secured because nobody uses GPG.
"California homeless are crazy" narrative is tiring and excuse. They are still people and need basic life necessities: toilet, shower and food. Periodic showers improve mental health, there are studies to prove it! After that is solved, we can focus on other issues. And frankly California invented drug culture, it glorifies drugs, why shame homeless?

If Jordan can accept 3 million people, so can California.

They seem to be rather orthogonal. Microdosing is certainly more controllable in terms of how much and what dose so you can optimize the level whereas walks in nature is more akin to drinking herbal tea for an upset stomach. You hope it helps but you don’t know how much of the active ingredient you’re getting for the effects you want and in that sense it’s more of a crapshoot in terms of repeatability but they’re also just enjoyable in their own right regardless of follow on benefits.

I think of Hacker News as a community, but it's still large enough that you don't really notice who is posting.

You're basically describing a margin account. If you have a portfolio on a margin account at the broker, you can just withdraw money from it up to the amount that your margin allows. That automatically starts a loan for that amount, collateralised by your portfolio.

The problem is that this is not nearly the same as selling stock and withdrawing the sales money, because you keep the risk that the stock will go down thus force liquidating your portfolio. You're conflating selling and borrowing, they're not identical except in these very vague tales about the ultra-rich.
London is a bit of an outlier. It's high on the list of major cities with the most green space, at about 34%. It has more green space than any city in the UK, and it is the world's largest urban forest at over 8 million trees.

By comparison, Los Angeles is the only major US city with as much green space (the next is NYC at 27%), even though the US is 40 times bigger than the UK.
I advocate for higher taxes on myself and others in my position. I vote that way. I worked on a presidential campaign that focused heavily on economic policy and social programs, all of which involved raising taxes.

It's not a secret that one party in the United States wants to raise taxes on higher earners, which includes many in Silicon Valley.
I did know that. The point is that unlike Unix, MS-DOS had no FHS to go with its hierarchical file system, which would cleanly separate the namespaces of user files from device nodes. (The file system layout didn’t even start becoming standardised until the Windows 95 days.) One could fairly legitimately create a DEV directory in the root of the file system and expect to be able to keep their own files there, naming them arbitrarily. The edge case is now harder to hit, but it’s still basically the same mistake.

DJGPP even has a FAQ item about a similar issue: <http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/v2faq/faq22_21.html> (though that one is caused by DJGPP’s own Unix emulation layer)
Same thing, the only way to eliminating wealth disparity is to eliminate wealth.

The Authoritarian Left that goes on and on about eliminating wealth disparity has no interest in lifting everyone up to be wealthy, not they want to seize the wealth and drag anyone down they deem is "too wealthy"

Which is ironically always someone more wealthy than the person advocating for wealth redistribution, for example Bernie Sanders used to talk about "millionaires and billionaires" until he became a millionaire, now like magic only billionaires are a problem for him

That's kind of the unanswered question, yeah. I think the other answer of "to run a simulator" isn't impossible -- the M1 has virtualization capability of some sort on it, IIRC, which might let Apple create a fully sandboxed environment for development in a future release. (I know that goes against App Store policies, but Apple can change those policies at any time, and of course can give themselves an exception at any time.)

The other, and maybe more likely, answer, though is consumer applications that could use it. On HN we tend to think about development tools when we think of "software that needs lots of power," but there's image, video and audio editing, real time effects processing, animation, all of that.
You'd need a crazy high interest rate to account for market volatility. If the bank could make accurate predictions as to the future value of the stock, they would just invest in the stocks.

Loans against other assets are much less risky, because they are backed by actual things. If the bank screws up in predicting the future value of a house, they can still own the actual house and land if you default. With stocks it would be far more risky because stocks are far more volatile than houses.
It's hard to commit a crime when you have layers of people managing your finances and other layers of people managing the people who write and enforce the laws.

> File management is done by Finder and there is some very strange things. For example to enter a file (open it) you do not use the enter key but cmd+down and enter is for renaming (wtf!).

It definitely takes time to adjust for things. This example I find funny because to me the mac method makes sense. Cmd + Up/Down to go up or down file hierarchies, and Cmd + Down will also open files. For Windows it is Alt + Up to go up, but Enter to go down or open file. I find the symmetry of the mac binding more simple, but that doesn't mean that I don't adjust over time when on Windows.

Another bonus RE keybindings is that there are a number of system shortcuts that you can very easily change to your liking through System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts, without any additional software.

Could you explain what you mean by inequality eats at society at all levels?

Obviously if inequality gets to a certain point, where you don't have a solid middle class anymore - that's problematic. I'm just curious about your stance because I too feel like Jeff being rich doesn't really make my life any worse.
Question? How do you feel about healthcare? Why is this the one place we should follow the rest of the world, wealth tax / VAT?

One might suspect the wealthy are just dropping turds in the punchbowl.
On the other hand, you may get all of these things right, and still experience no improvement.

Personally, I'm starting to feel that most "diet and exercise" advice is just a subtle way of showing a middle finger. Sending someone on a wild goose chase, thus making them go away. In my circles, I've never heard of a single case where a medical problem - whether physical or mental - was solved by changing diet or a more active lifestyle. The closest I've seen was shuffling meals around because of a bad interaction with a drug.

Keeping sleep, diet and exercise truly optimal, against challenges of the modern world and already compromised physical or mental state is a full-time job on its own. Even if it could help - which I doubt - few people have enough time and energy to go this route. Hell, finding the optimal balance in the first place is essentially a full-time N=1 research work.

Pills are good thing. The right ones, administered in correct doses, under supervision of medical professionals - they work wonders. Modern medicine in many ways a miracle. Being able to function again, to feel good, to spend quality time with people you love, can be as simple as popping a lozenge at appropriate time. It's infinitely better than structuring your entire life around managing your condition with "natural" remedies.

To be clear: I'm not saying we should be medicating ourselves for everything. Not all drugs are good, and all drugs have side effects. They're still very crude tools. I'm trying to offer a counterpoint to the (what I feel is) growing trend of rejecting modern medicine just because it smells too much of industry (as if that was a bad thing). In my view, the problem with medication is just that it's not good enough. But it's getting better, year after year.
You are correct. I was going off someone else's list and didn't double-check that. They announced Apple Silicon at WWDC2020, but didn't actually announce hardware!

Would do wonders for the Bay Area housing market! On a serious note, this proposal was originally coupled with a pretty radical (from our point of view) approach to land ownership. Land is closer to zero-sum than many other things (ignoring artificial islands etc.), so this forces a more efficient pricing/land use at the expense of doing away with private property rights for land.
Well that's interesting. I'd be curious what average users see.
