We're starting to see the beginning of the backlash that the psychedelic community has been dreading since the start of the so-called Psychedelic Renaissance about a decade ago.

Everyone in the field knows that there'll inevitably be some adverse effects among some (as far as we know, small minority) of participants in these studies and users of psychedelics as a whole. We also know that both the media and many media consumers love sensationalism and mud-throwing, whatever the facts may be.

So far the overwhelming majority of psychedelic studies have been enormously positive, but we also know that can't last forever and realistically speaking there are bound to be some negative effects. This was crystal clear long before the Psychedelic Renaissance even started.

We've been lucky that since the beginning of the Psychedelic Renaissance the media attention has been almost completely positive and curious. But that too will likely change. These Cover Story podcasts are a recent example of the start of this change.

The question is whether such negative media attention will derail the Psychelic Renaissance and whether we'll go back to the dark ages of complete prohibition and mainstream terror at the prospect of using psychedelics.

At this point that doesn't seem likely, and stories like this will probably just cause the scientists and organizations involved to get more serious about safety and the general public to stop (erroneously) regarding psychedelics and the people involved in the scene as panaceas that can do no wrong.

At the same time, I don't think we're at the peak of the hype curve, and as more people try psychedelics there'll be a lot more influencers and true believers who'll hype them to the sky. We might even get another Timothy Leary or Ken Kesey.
If your data is "mostly a tree but has the occasional back reference I can easily identify as a back reference", that works great and I've used it in other languages.

But in the limit, as your data becomes maximally "graphy" and there isn't much you can do about it, this ceases to be a viable option. You have to be able to carve a "canonical tree" out of your graph for this to work and that's not always possible. (Practically so, I mean. Mathematically you can always define a tree, by simple fiat if nothing else, but that doesn't help if the only available definitions are not themselves practical.)
Some have even bought the entire newspaper to make sure it stays on message.
My impression of the medical system (both here in Germany, and through reports from the US) is that it's very much like everything else: much is crap, much is mediocre, some good, and a very small, excellent sliver.

This goes for doctors, drugs, surgeries, devices.

If you want good results, you really have to take matters into your own hands, search for possible treatments yourself, evaluate several doctors until you find a competent one, research possible adverse side effects yourself etc.

Example: somebody in my family had two different surgeries by non-standard methods that gave her significant advantages over the regular methods; one of them offered (to our knowledge) in only one hospital in Germany, the other in three. In both cases her regular doctors didn't know about these methods, and were really surprised to hear about them afterwards. In both cases, she learned about these methods through some non-medical channel (a relative read about it in a newspaper, stuff like that).

If you just go to the next specialist for the field you need, chances are you don't get the optimal treatment, and the rarer the disease, the less like you get a good treatment.

>the complete lack of enforcement of what goes in supplements

I agree with everything you said except for this. If resources are finite to approve and regulate drugs, 3rd-party supplements are the first thing I want tossed before any other more critical medication.
The CCP has very specific influence on companies in China, that has no parrallel elsewhere. Specifically they require companies to hire CCP members that have internal positions with oversight, the CCP will remove leaders as they see fit, require arbitrary censoring as they see fit.

This is obviously much more of a concern for companies in the information domain such as social media or finance, than others such as manufacturing.

Donald Trump for example, could not remove the Google founders by any means.
Weak pointers don't create a strong reference, correct, and that is exactly what is needed to break a cycle. Since it is a cycle, there is some other "owning" strong reference out there. Every use case I've seen generally has an obvious strong and weak reference (usually parent vs child). I'm sure there are trickier corner cases, but that is the typical IMO.

For everything else, Rust has no need for a tracing GC, as it has "compile time" GC via static lifetime analysis which is much better IMO already and often avoid heap allocation all together.

Where are the breeder reactors in current use? This has been "just around the corner" for decades now, and if it finally materializes I would hope they would be put to better use than power floating resorts.

Nobody needs huge mega cruise ships. Rather than continue to burn fossil fuel or wasting the resources and trust on them by making them nuclear, there's a simpler solution: ban them. You want a ship holiday, there's plenty of sail ships available. You want to lie in the sun, go to movie theaters, pools, restaurants? Go to a hotel. None of these huge companies are paying the external cost of their wastefulness, and it needs to stop, not be enabled by tech pipe dreams.

The developers probably test it using beefy machines and very small latency to their dedicated test servers in the same building. On the other hand, their users probably use old or slow machines connected to busy oversubscribed servers halfway across the world causing significant latency.
Fair point - so far I've been lucky enough to avoid such use cases
I mean, the prize for passing the actual practical test is now you're a person.

I like being a person, but seems like some people I know don't so much, so maybe whether this is a good prize is a matter of opinion.

But yes people have offered prizes for numerous toy protocols similar to Alan Turing's "parlour game" idea, many Cognitive Scientists doubt this is an effective protocol for testing personhood, not all of them in ways I agree with (e.g. Professor Harnad and I disagree vehemently about whether his big-T test is necessary) but clearly at some level "passing" as a person is satisfactory because that's all everybody else is doing.
Not satire at all actually, and to be a counter movement would suggest that there was more movement behind PDAs than there actually was. The name maybe a little bit of a joke, but this was a legitimate system that Merlin Mann came up with and used in his job at the time that served functionally the same role as a PDA at a fraction of the cost. About the only things it wouldn’t do is synchronize with your computer or tell you the time; but it also didn’t run on batteries or depend on an idiosyncratic pen input method or tiny keyboard.

How is this "dangerously close to toxic"? Extra strength is 500mg. Adults should not take more than 3000mg in a day. Taking 7000 more more can lead to liver problems.

https://medlineplus.gov/ency/article/002598.htm

Common dosage forms and strengths:

Suppository: 120 mg, 125 mg, 325 mg, 650 mg
Chewable tablets: 80 mg
Junior tablets: 160 mg
Regular strength: 325 mg
Extra strength: 500 mg
Liquid: 160 mg/teaspoon (5 milliliters)
Drops: 100 mg/mL, 120 mg/2.5 mL
Adults should not take more than 3,000 mg of single-ingredient acetaminophen a day. You should take less if you are over 65 years old. Taking more, especially 7,000 mg or more, can lead to a severe overdose problems. If you have liver or kidney disease, you should discuss the use of this drug with your health care provider.

> They were cheering it on a week or two ago when it was against Russians.

Also celebrating that Google was ‘on their side’. Until they are not.

> My favorite was when they were licking their lips and reaching ecstasy over Parler getting deplatformed but then throwing a tantrum like a week later when Terraria dev got banned by Google.

That was my favorite one. Basically the chickens cheering on the wolves eating the other chickens that disagreed with them. Now the wolves are eating them as well and they are complaining why they are ‘not on their side’ anymore.

They thought it could never happen to them. Just use the same ‘private platform’ logic towards them for everyone else that is getting banned after Parler and now they are all crying in the comments here.

These companies are not on anyone’s side and these bans can happen to anyone on their platform. They won’t change.

LOL, I graduated with a degree in graphic design and an emphasis in illustration, and even got a couple of jobs in the games industry.

I had to change into software because I couldn't get fulltime work anymore and needed the benefits (I'd been coding for fun since high school - started with Flash). It was all gig jobs. Plus I make substantially more coding because "I don't get the pleasure of having the dream job of making art for video games".

I'll give that paper it's claim, that "DCX+ dentate granule cells are a dynamic cell population that undergoes progressive maturation" but I don't see new evidence from that paper suggesting they actually make it through the complex, multi-step, evolution of granule cells to neurons. There are a lot of stops and pitfalls on the way. The evidence from the 2022 paper I linked at the start of this thread shows the gene expression profiles of adult human dentate granule cells are very different from other mammals.
Many are compelled from within to create and they have progressed and developed to the point where their art appeals to a large audience — they do not produce out of competitive drive, but out of an intense inward force that they can only satisfy through creative expression. They are those who create because they must, not just because they can.

Your dislike is probably more due to the configuration setup in your instance.

As others pointed out, you can require matching a pin in the app with the one on the screen.

With many of the MFA apps I have tied to Microsoft products, they typically store a session expiration where they don't have me re-authenticate with MFA until the next day.

I've worked with many enterprises where the security group implements awful policies in an attempt to lock things down but instead create more risk by creating to much burden on employees which results in them finding clever hacks around the security.

Just guessing, but probably not the tool here. Though they maybe could improve their defaults, docs or UI/UX.

> My U.N. passport=NO.

I wouldn't blame a regular store clerk for not knowing what a UN Lassiez-Passier is, especially since it doesn't have the word "passport" in the name. But a passport, especially one from their own country, definitely ought to be recognized.

Come on, just say you want back your Win98/Win2K look'n feel ;)

While I personally like my windows less decorated and more Mac OS-like, I'm quite impressed by the determination and progress of the SerenityOS team. Are there app porting guidelines, or maybe POSIX/LSB, X Windows, or other compat statements?
> The tricky thing is GC works most of the time, but if you are working at scale you really can't predict user behavior, and so all of those GC-tuning parameters that were set six months ago no longer work properly. A good portion of production outages are likely related to cascading failures due to too long GC pauses, and a good portion of developer time is spent testing and tuning GC parameters. It is easier to remove and/or just not allow GC languages at these levels in the first place.

Getting rid of the GC doesn't absolve you of the problem, it just means that rather than tuning GC parameters, you've encoded usage assumptions in thousands of places scattered throughout your code base.
> Each time Dagger runs your pipeline, it can produce telemetry about every aspect of your supply chain.

To me, that still doesn’t seem to go to the core of what value it brings to table. I understand that Dagger can do all this, and that businesses would like to know what runs where and how everything interacts, but… it doesn’t explain to me the CI / build pipeline angle?

How does knowing the telemetry around my build pipelines translate to better software, or cost savings, or other improvements?

If there’s a registry to exchange “components” of a build pipeline, what does that bring me what a regular python / java / etc package can’t?

Don’t get me wrong, I think there are plenty of problems with CI (I have a ~200 job CI pipeline on fire in front of me), I just can’t seem to connect the dots here. :)
Well, at least it was still a true statement.

> doesn't get you high.

this is the big one. Phenyl-epinephrine doesn't work at all, it's consistently failed to outperform placebo, and the only reason it's on the market is because the FDA doesn't like pseudo-ephedrine (sudafed) because it can be used as a precursor for meth. Same reason they've required individual blister packs for sudafed (if only there was some illicit drug which gave you the focus and drive to perform repetitive tasks for hours on end...)

Same thing for imodium. The reason all of a sudden it's in blister packs? People found a way to abuse it and the FDA is going to ruin it for the rest of us.

In the case of acetaminophen, the FDA actively uses it as a poison to "discourage" addicts from taking large doses of painkillers or cough syrup. The point is explicitly that if you take too much, you'll burn out your liver, the FDA is actively inserting poison into the medicine to "discourage abuse".

In all of these cases, the common factor is that it makes things much more annoying or even dangerous/lethal for average people, while addicts are completely unaffected. No opiate addict in the world is going to get clean because of individual pill blister packaging. Meth addicts will just pop some pills and churn through the sudafed blister packaging, etc.

I am waiting for the other shoe to drop on imodium, now that the FDA is targeting it, it can't be too long until it's behind the counter or pulled entirely. And as someone who (TMI warning) suffers from what I'd term as moderately frequent IBS (never diagnosed but maybe I should) that's really going to suck for me.

The FDA is simply an instrument of drug-war policy, they're not oriented towards patient care and outcomes at all.
There seems to be a recurring sentiment in the comments that we're losing artists to tech, but you know what we lose even more artists to? Commercial art.

Earning a living as an artist is tough. Most won't get their work seen in a gallery, so they turn to commercial art or graphic design. Now they learn to create art for a client that fits a brief. They do this every day for years until they lose the ability to make art for themselves. I know this happens, because it happened to me.

Learning to code was the best career decision I ever made. I now make significantly more money than I did before, which enables me to fund my own art projects on the side. I'm learning to get back in touch with why I wanted to make art in the first place. Like it or not, we all need to earn a living. In my opinion, doing so in an art-adjacent field is not somehow morally better than doing so in tech.
> The difference in the code I’m working with is being able to handle 250 req/s in node versus 50,000 req/s in Go without me doing any performance optimizations.

Your node code should be in the 2k reqs/s range trivially, with many frameworks comfortable offering 5k+.

It is never going to be as fast as go, but it will handle most cases.
That's easy. Earth is basically very large capacitor (could think of about 1 Farad).

If you will feed AC current via smaller capacitor, it will just have larger resistance, but will also conduct.

And with higher frequency need smaller capacitor to achieve same resistance.
Practically, antenna size for 50Hz is about 10th of kilometers, but for Kilo-Hertz, need much smaller antennas and smaller capacitors, and in hundreds Megagertz band, current electronics could easy make radio of match size or even smaller.

Just to say my part and my opinion, to give my perception from a country of the "west"

I don't think you're an infiltration force or any others are.

I don't think Russian people are to blame, eg. definitely rural areas seem to be very indoctrinated. They are victims, wether they know it or not.

I've seen Russians, where i live, to be one of the most active for gathering support for Ukranians. I think a lot of Russians abroad feel embarrassed about Putin ( and his enablers), you're definitely not alone and i can't describe/know how that feels.

I hope most people are smart enough to know the difference stated, but i don't think all people are. For that, i apologize.

I wish you the best of luck.
in the US Robitussin DM is the one you get if you aim for disassociation(?) - NyQuil is explicitly a sleep aid with some other stuff mixed in, I'd have to go dig a bottle out but i think the active ingredient is an anti-histamine (diphenylhydramine i think) - as a sleep aid, mind you. It is true that NyQuil used to have alcohol, and didn't have DXM or acetaminophen. If the liquid you are looking at is Orange, that's the "daytime" stuff, and that's overpriced garbage.

One could buy generic "tussin DM" (or pill form of dextro), mucinex (for guafenasin), and benadryl (or generic diphenylhydramine) to get the same usefulness that a bottle of liquid NyQuil has.

First off, I'd recommend you explore art on a personal level before you start looking to apply it outwardly. What mediums do you like? What's your style? Where does your inner drive to make art come from?

Art can be incredibly rewarding just doing it for yourself, and from my perspective I'd find it hard to have an artist career without first knowing my own artistic expression.

I'd also be interested in figuring out how I can utilize my tech experience towards a more artistic kind of career. I paint outside of my day job and I wish I could bring the things I love about it, open-ended creativity, curiosity, etc, to my career.
