Where I come from, we used to grow cannabis plants and use their seeds to feed birds kept in cages, in captivity. Birds liked the seeds and were singing a lot when feed on them. My garden and that of many others was fully of over one meter high cannabis plants. We had no other use for it. I learned it was a drug only when capitalist world reached us. Now, it is illegal to grow it.

Related: My grandma, now 93, used to say that tea made out of poppy seeds was good for babies that cried a lot. When given that tea, babies slept quite well. No adult I know, ever made use of that. I am not sure about that now.

Seeing 12000 years ago cannabis plants via current lens could lead to incorrect interpretation.
Great to see SQL being used more for such use cases! (I really like SQL)

This looks nice, especially with the charting!

It's good to know though that there are a few similar open source tools already:

- q[0] - SQL on CSV and TSV

- TextQL[1] - SQL on CSV and TSV

- Datasette[2] - Running SQL on various datasets in various formats, by (if I understand it correctly) importing it to sqlite and running the query there. This one's the closest one to the posted project I think, with interactive data exploration and publishing built in.

- OctoSQL[3] - SQL on files like CSV, JSON as well as non-file databases, endless streams with temporal SQL extensions and joining everything together in a single query.

The performance numbers of this tool however are impressive if they will check out with real data. 1GB in 10 seconds is fast. However, looking at the documentation it looks like most of the heavy lifting is done by SQLite under the hood. From the docs:

> Under the hood, Superintendent loads CSVs into a SQLite database.

Disclaimer: I'm the author of OctoSQL. Still actively developing a rewrite on the redesign branch.

Yes they are prescribed medicine and have weekly counseling from a counselor. We limit the medication for school and special events as it’s not perfect, has side effects, and they can become tolerant. The counseling is for prior trauma from neglect not for ADHD.
> Especially for older people that don't need $500+ flagships, a $150 Xiaomi is more than sufficient

Let me rephrase that for you: Especially for people who realise they don't need $500+ flagships, a $150 Xiaomi is more than sufficient.

It has nothing whatsoever to do with age, my 16yo daughter is more than satisfied with her Redmi Note 5 - she wanted one when she saw mine. Good battery life, good screen, more than fast enough and plenty of memory, 3.5mm jack, can take an SD card. Show me the "flagship" phone which offers this combination.

Phones have been fast enough for years now, screens, memory and storage have been big enough. Add LineageOS and you have a device which can easily last for 6 years, longer when you change the battery. I'm using a Samsung SIIIneo from 2014 with LineageOS 17.1 (Android 10) as a second device, it receives weekly OTA updates (which I generally do not install, but still - they're there). With a new battery it lasts for 2-3 days between charges when used for audio streaming through bluetooth or the speaker.

A big reason why people buy iPhones is the Apple ecosystem and status signalling. A $300 Xiaomi phone also isn't as good as a flagship iPhone, but it's ~90% as good for 1/3 the price. For people who spend several hours per day on their phone, it isn't irrational to buy an iPhone. Americans spend on average 5.4 hours per day on their phone. Over two years, the savings from a Xiaomi phone come out to less than 20 cents per hour use. For these people it may well be worth the 20 cents for an hour of better phone experience. I think Samsung should be way more worried than Apple.
I've often done the same thing! My phone is often on do not disturb as well, so alarms are the only way to get on time reminders. My apple watch has helped as I can hit snooze quickly and a lot more easily.

Todo apps tend to get filled with so many things, so I've been using CheckYourList to keep track of things like you mentioned to keep them away from my overflowing todo inbox.
The child needs to talk.

And an adult capable of listening.

Deepening your empathy is totally within your control.
You might be right but your argument rests on an awful lot of assumptions that weren’t detailed in the article.

It’s just as likely it was intended to scale the way it had and it was just poorly implemented from the outset. I’ve seen this happen plenty of times in the past where an extremely rudimentary POC is rushed into production and the official workaround is a scary chain of kludges. It was especially common in the era this BANCStar originates because compute time was expensive so it was often cheaper to code by hand and then hire typists who’d input your code and compile it, passing you a print out of any errors raised. Starting again from scratch if your basic premise sucked often wasn’t an option. Man do I not miss those days.
As someone who was on the other side of that growing up, the worst thing you can do is see them as you seem to. I promise they don't mean to do this. They're a child. They are literally doing the best their knowledge and experience has prepared them to do with something their brain is doing to them that they don't understand and didn't ask for, and having adults take the frustration out on them will only make it worse. You might think you don't let it come through in your interactions, but I guarantee they'll pick up on it if you don't change your attitude.

Coping with a hyperactive child can be tough, but foremost you need to do your best to understand them and meet their needs. And “shutting them the hell up” is working against that. Truly, the best route here is probably to find another caretaker who is willing to take the time to help this child…

Anecdotally, I had similar troubles as a kid and after a battery of evaluations they found I had slightly diminished verbal language processing (despite passing common tonal audio tests just fine). Understanding this equipped the adults in my life to better accommodate my needs, and in turn, I’m sure, mitigate the hassle I made for them.
> We’ll also code reviews. Lots and lots of code reviews. Like, all the time. The algorithm will have to be kept in check.

This is a repeated theme of the article. I think it’d be simpler to write the non boilerplaty code, no? Plus who’s going to be excited to have a job as “AI code reviewer”
We should have AI tools to aid software engineers understanding of logic chains, and assorted visualizations like CAD, but for logic and the code creating that logic. And not UML nonsense, but some type of AI tool that begins where Doxygen ends and simply keeps going with various means of aiding the developer's understanding as they construct hierarchical logic systems.

After using RealMe phones, I am finding them superior to Xiaomi at similar price points. I don't know why they aren't more popular.
>I like weed as a productive drug, it's stronger than caffeine for me, but I develop tolerance and addiction quickly. Any solution to the tolerance problem? Quitting/breaks is obvious.

This is not something I've solved but are you consuming large amounts? I can stay high for months on end, using every hour and while it's not going to hit me like the first hit, I say up. I'd like to be more regular in consumption (every 4 hours), but your guess is as good as mine

>Is investing in weed stocks encouraging drug addiction/use? Is it ethical to promote drug use?

Is investing in any US-based company encouraging war? Is investing in any company that uses Chinese production promoting slavery? Caffeine is a drug. We take lots of drugs. We are in the infancy of understanding many of them because we're young and because we've been prudes.

I'd rather see companies and people I'd trust pushing and producing drug products of any kind rather than abusers. You can see this happening in the hemp adjacent markets - lots and lots of shady fly by night companies have popped up but slowly the good ones are rising to the top. 3chi, for example is a popular and I think solid d8 company.

But as I told my dad, every single person that was selling pot on the street is trying to get into the drug business and has been for more than a decade...good luck picking winners.

>Has anyone been able to convince a fortune 500 company that they need(medical) marijuana for work? As mentioned I'm significantly more focused, but I don't like the social stigma. I already have the job, it's purely a cultural/social problem.

This is my main concern (and lung damange). I do notice lapses in short-term memory (though I am high when this happens, I haven't noticed a huge drop). The literature sugests it's relatively small over decades IIRC. Willie Nelson and Snoop (sample of 2) are doing ok.

> Most work in this area is unadulterated quackery

Citation needed: please say, exactly, to what or to whom you are referring.[0] In my experience with the study the work is precisely opposite of quackery: integrity, veracity, forthrightness.[1] My favorites are rivals Searle and Dennett, and though I believe Churchland(s) are incorrect, their work provides deep insight into brain and neurology for an excellent foundation for students of Philosophy of Mind. The point here is, even those that are incorrect (such as Descartes and other dualists) are not quacks: only through dissent do things move forward. Please give us examples of "quackery" in Philosophy of Mind. Because from where I am standing, any of them that rely on reductionism, which I expect a physicist would, are likely in error, because no matter how you slice up brain, you will never find mind.

I'm not sure that Norway is special in any way. I think the western democratic countries just all hold each other in high esteem and don't criticize each other on underlying issues such as this.

Many of them are adopting Jemalloc, but they do the Jemalloc integration work themselves because they have the engineering talent and capacity. Fullstaq Ruby is for everybody else: those who can't, don't want to, or can't be bothered to do it themselves. It's for the masses.
Why would you be input data in a way that violates referential integrity? That would be pretty bizarre.

Yes but do you have anything to remind me to check the checklist app?

Even better, some sort of checklist app aggregator app which goes through my various checklist apps that I forget to check? The same thing for note taking apps would be great too.

OTG isn't rare in low end hardware these days it's just really low on the list of things most low end phones think the users will care about. I wouldn't be surprised if it was simply forgotten about and not listed more often than the hardware+software weren't set up to do it.

E.g. the Pi Zero is $5 and comes with an OTG port, it's really not a matter of cost rather focus.
Aww man, I've got an Android phone. Anyone know of any alternatives for Android? I'm currently using TickTick, but daily or activity based repeatable tasks isn't its focus. I was only able to get what I need because of its decently powerful filter.
a lot is made of MAD, but it has to be remembered that both sides' own people (scientists, soldiers, generals) were largely and painfully aware that thermonuclear war would have likely been excessively disastrous, regardless of whether the other side could shoot back. This was already fairly clear after bombing Japan, to people who had the right information, but over the subsequent 20 years it became widely understood. While politicians saber-rattled, their own subordinate hierarchies often recoiled in horror. When even scientists start going "well, we probably shouldn't learn more about that", you know you're on the edge of existence.

Because they aren’t pronounced the same in their respective countries/languages.

As mentioned elsewhere, Iran is “ee-raan”.

Iraq is more like “eh-raaq”.

They have different initial vowels which are obvious in Persian/Arabic script, but harder to translate into latin script with variable vowel pronunciations in English.

Sounds like you went through the same process I did as well :) I was surprised to find a lack of apps that have repeatable checklists.

I did something similar to you with google forms. I had a shortcut set up to launch a google form to go through. Smart idea with using a shortcut the uncheck the items!

Let me know how you go with the app :) Especially if it is missing anything you think you need.

That's not required on A series phones, which ship with a mostly stock Android as opposed to the custom MIUI.

But distrusting the client doesn’t solve the problem. If a user can see through a wall locally how can ‘distrusting’ anything fix that? What is there to distrust? All inputs are genuine.
That's true, but having seen (non-IIT) Indian colleges, I am not surprised if 80%+ students they see are like that. Moreover, intelligent ones less commonly opt for masters degrees because they get good offers in campus placements, especially those from middle class or rural areas are already doing undergrad on loans.

Google Keep lets you make checklists and it's easy to uncheck everything on the list. I use it to make "leaving the house" lists etc.
The world is viewed primarily through the eyes of human protagonists, but this is to anchor the reader in something familiar. The humans are never in charge.

In terms of educational software, it's doubtful. I was teaching in an elementary computer classroom around 2010 and my recollection of the software landscape is of remakes of 1980's software, some uninspired (though otherwise good) software designed for secondary students, and utter garbage that didn't deserve the designation edutainment. The stuff I am describing as garbage was pretty much a game with interludes of learning, which is contrary to what MECC set out to do. While that model may be fine for parents buying a game for their own children, it isn't very useful in schools.

Thanks, the second link looks very helpful and gave me further ideas on how to try to work backwards to get an idea of the recycling processing costs: find spot prices of raw/intermediates that come from the process produced by companies with the black box recycling processes while trying to find those companies volume sold/processed over time (ideally they would process more when the underlying market is more expensive).

For me the greatest value is 2+ days battery and the fact that I'm not afraid to loose/break €200 phone vs €600, while Xiaomi is better in many aspects. Went to it 5 years ago after using flagship Samsung models also for c.5 years, could not stand for abysmal battery and their UI.

I actually took to this view after reading one of Banks' non-culture novels, The Wasp Factory. The ending of that book simply floored me. The betrayal! It was just... unspeakable, an almost Lovecraftian horror that shook my very soul. Afterwards I re-read his Culture novels and saw them in a new light.

PS: Banks is by far my favourite author, and I mourn his death greatly.
