With psychedelics some refer to a "museum dose" — that amount you can use that would allow a person to visit an art museum and enjoy the experience. There are similarities with cannabis and other drugs (including alcohol of course).

That said, sometimes a little dab is enough to throw things off — fun story: I was practicing the Filipino Martial Arts and my teacher had a hit off a blunt some fellows practicing kinda-wushu in the same park were passing around. His ability to count out our drills went to hell, but in generally all other ways he was fine. It was very humorous at the time.

Daycare apps are insecure surveillance dumpster-fires
I’m not sure I understand the value of an allocator that doesn’t reuse allocations, as a bug prevention thing. Is it just for performance? (Since its never reused, allocation can simply be incrementing an offset by the size of the allocation)? Because beyond that, you can get the same benefit in C by simply never calling free on the memory you want to “protect” against use-after-free.
Potentially stupid question, would it be reasonable to use SHA-256 truncated to the first 40 digits?

It seems like that could ease much of the migration problems if it's not a problem?
Just piggy-backing on this comment; a great book about sleep is Why We Sleep by Matthew Walker. The author does seem to fall into the "everything is a nail when all you have is a hammer" trap, but they do know a lot about sleep and the points in the above comment are backed up in the book with solid studies and references.

The article does address that:

"Given the threat that the SHA-1 hash poses, one might think that there would be a stronger incentive for somebody to support this work. But, as Bjarmason continued, that incentive is not actually all that strong. The project adopted the SHA-1DC variant of SHA-1 for the 2.13 release in 2017, which makes the project more robust against the known SHA-1 collision attacks, so there does not appear to be any sort of imminent threat of this type of attack against Git. Even if creating a collision were feasible for an attacker, Bjarmason pointed out, that is only the first step in the development of a successful attack. Finding a collision of any type is hard; finding one that is still working code, that has the functionality the attacker is after, and that looks reasonable to both humans and compilers is quite a bit harder — if it is possible at all."
I socialize almost daily outside of work. I also socialized a lot with my coworkers at my last job. Then covid hit, and we were on happy hour zooms each week and happily.

It may be a luxury to enjoy one's coworkers. Maybe I hit the jackpot. But it seems weird to me that people don't socialize at all with anyone at their job.

In any case, I agree - work isn't ideally the only social outlet for people. The point is that for a lot of people, that was/is the only time to get interaction with others, and yes, people should be forced to interact with others a bit (not by law, but by good habits and social norms).

I'm lamenting a larger social trend that is riding the WFH wave. My broader point is that, in my opinion, the online trend of "being a loner is cool, humanity sucks, why would I ever want to talk to people" is bad, and I think the group of people who think that way is a subset of the WFH advocacy crowd.

Like I said, WFH has benefits, some of which I currently reap, and perhaps I am overreacting or projecting! I haven't formulated my ideas into a paper, I opened them to discussion.
I do the same, but search really sucks.

Rural areas are actually cheaper because they do NOT have paved roads every 500 feet or so. The local county pays for all of the rural roads (maintenance, plowing, etc) and the little town pays for the roads in town; federal funds are only used for the interstate and some connecting ramps, etc.

What may not be sustainable is city-like road patterns with suburban densities.
This is an absurd take on social relations. It's equivalent to declaring that you're owned by "society" from birth, with an unchosen obligation you can never escape, because everything you do with other people is done "on the back of society".

Society, as such, doesn't exist. There is no corporeal "society". The only reality is other individuals, living their lives, interacting with you or not. In a civilized society they're able to interact - or not - by mutual consent.

The belief that every individual exists only to serve the group is false and evil.
I've found the secret to marijuana not taking away from your personal fulfillment is to limit it to the end of the day before sleeping which would already be spent consuming passively (such as watching TV).
You may not care about licensing or copyright, and I imagine many others who create code under an attribution license don't. That's still not the same as saying "copyright and licensing are bad." Too many businesses depend on them to exist for me to have that opinion.

If an AI takes a copyright work and makes its own version-- say combining two novels by popular authors in a way that is unique but keeps large parts of the text intact, can I sell that? I think if I were the authors I would be unhappy.

Also, how hard would it be for copilot to include a comment saying "// I got this line from x repo" when you are copying from a new repo? I am guessing not hard at all. Then at least the user would be aware of where their code was coming from and could be expected to make a judgement. If the line is "let a = b" then probably no worries. But if it is hundreds of lines of a simulation, all from the same repo with no changes, then I think some attribution is good for both parties.
Something can be simultaneously effective, and also fail at least once.
And I really don't mind.

I want every line of code I've ever written to be used as much as possible.

I find "intellectual property" to be dubious to the core. I'm not confident enough in my feelings to be a zealot, but if I had to pick sides then I know which side I would pick.
Too many HN threads just seem to be people arguing about the appropriateness of the title. The article addresses a significant and interesting issue that's going to have major negative effects on business models, as well as some positive effect on space junk. I think they did a decent job, at least for an article intended for the general public, and I'm glad I read it. And yes, the word "plummet" is an exaggeration. But that isn't a big deal.
I have shown imagen (and dalle2) to a number of people now (non-tech, just everyday friends, family, co-workers) and I have been pretty stunned by the response I get from most people:

"Meh, that's kinda cool? I guess?" or "What am I looking at?"..."Ok? So a computer made it? That seems neat"

To me I am still trying to get my jaw off the floor from 2 months ago. But the responses have been so muted and shoulder shrugging that I think either I am missing something or they are missing something. Even really drilling in, practically shaking them "DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND THAT THIS IS A ORIGINAL IMAGE CONSTRUCTED ENTIRELY BY AN AI?!?!" and people just seem to see it as a party trick at best.
Show HN: My 5/3/1 App is now available on Android
Hi HN!

For those of you that remember, I recently posted about my 5/3/1 app making about $500/mo on iOS and made it the front page [0] (still stoked about that).

I'm happy to say the app is now available on Android [1]! Please check it out and let me know what you think! I'm really curious to see how it performs vis-à-vis the iOS version.

As a person living with complex PTSD, my experience is the polar opposite of what is described in the parent comment.

I could not have relationships or work at all without medicinal cannabis, and there is really no difference between it and recreational cannabis in terms of efficacy, as long as the strain matches somewhat closely.
...and if you're merging commits from a developer who, unknown to either of you, had their laptop compromised and their repo corrupted? Remember that the compromise of kernel.org happened via a developer's laptop, and it was only the security of the hash chains that preserved confidence in the repositories stored there.

As noted in the article, an SHA-1 collision attack does not appear practical now, but that is a situation that can change.
This late 80's PSA style ad covers that perspective as well. This style of ads were easy to mock even in the 80s - but I always thought this one had a point.

Like I said, dosing becomes difficult because the drug is so potent. Even if you know you only want the smallest hit, it doesn't always work that way in practice (especially if you're not a frequent smoker and aren't familiar with using pipes and vapes, etc).

Plus, a lot of casual smokers think they're supposed to smoke the way they see in movies, or how they did in high school, which is usually not a single, carefully measure toke and then wait 20 minutes.
So how do you install it?

>It's quite telling even the most pro-EU people are very opposed to creating anything resembling a real country.

What makes you think that? I'm pro-EU and ideally I would like to see it turn into a full fledged country. The issue is that the general population doesn't want this (yet).

>Once it's dissolved or enough countries quit, you'll probably see more real integration but on a smaller scale.

It won't be dissolved.
>It's quite telling even the most pro-EU people are very opposed to creating anything resembling a real country.

I am both of those things and I am not sure what it is telling you?

>Once it's dissolved or enough countries quit,

There was quite a strong anti-EU stance here in Denmark until Brexit. As things are now, suggesting Denmark leave the union is political suicide. I imagine that trend is similar in other countries.

One of many. I have a close family member who developed cannabis-induced psychotic disorder in teenage years. It is a well known phenomenon. I agree that it can be a chicken-and-egg question in some cases but it doesn’t change the fact that cannabis is generally bad for your mind.
> common consumer protection laws in all areas of business

As an American, every time I buy something directly from a European company online (most recently ebooks, for instance) I come away thinking "wait -- was that it"? Like I was bracing to be drenched in raw sewage and given a black eye. Might be over-generalizing from my limited experience, but I do appreciate the difference. I feel like the U.S. quit even talking about consumer protection in the 80s.

So I'd say these things actually benefit more than just EU citizens!
I agree with the headline not being clear. However, what do you think about this ruling?
On and off daily marijuana user.

I don't feel "dopey and less intelligent" when I smoke weed at all times of the day. It actually has very little impact on me. But it does help me deal with my chronic anxiety issues.

I take breaks regularly. Sometimes I get into a place where I can't operate in my day to day life because of intrusive thoughts. When I smoke I'm able to break out of cycles of repetitive thought and make real progress in my life. I achieve so much more and get so much more out of life. I'm able to engage with the people in my life better and improve my relationships.

You speak with false authority on a matter you cannot possibly understand, because you do not share the life experience of myself or people like me. It's irresponsible and you should desist. If you have relevant experiences, share them and explain that this is your conclusion. If you don't have relevant experiences, don't include yourself in the conversation. Don't speak in generalizations about other people's lives.
> Does caffeine have negative side effects,

Caffeine has negative side effects. It is an addictive psychoactive drug. Its effects are mild, but, to repeat, it is an addictive psychoactive drug.

Even moderate use can cause sever anxiety in some people. L-theanine is a great counter to this. Green tea naturally has L-theanine in it and that is likely why people who drink green tea do not report anxiety (at least in significant numbers) while coffee drinkers do.

FWIW Matcha has even more L-theanine that green tea.

This is one of the things that is so annoying about US public policy; mass transit needs to be built to where people are not yet so that it can support growth in those areas, trying to only shoehorn it in where "there's enough riders already" results in silly systems that don't do anything very effectively.
Yes they haven't paid it forward, or back, but why fight on the occupier's territory. By calling for legal frameworks to enforce this we accept the language and terms of the dominant party. By using courts and the law and creating new law for copyright we actually move further from the goal of abolishing copyright and IP entirely.

Every time we use courts to enforce IP we're strengthening the Walt Disneys and Nintendos of the world.

(I accept I am in a group of like 3 people with this goal but it's my view)

Edit: to expand slightly more on this. People should be able to decompile/reverse engineer whatever the hell they want. They shouldn't have to worry about armed goons kicking down their doors. Every time cases are used to strengthen the enforcement of IP/licensing, whether for the light (FSF) or dark (Micro$oft, Google, etc) the outcome is the same, we move further from that goal.
Nuclear becomes exponentially more expensive the more you add to the grid and thus the lower it’s capacity factor becomes. France was exporting a lot of nuclear power and importing non nuclear and still fell down to 70% cf when the US was at 90%. One way of looking at that is a .9/.7 - 1 = 30% increase in cost per kWh overall. However compared to 90% for 35% the next 35% cost 60% more per kWh. And aiming for 90% would be even more expensive.

If we want a zero carbon grid nuclear simply isn’t viable on it’s own, it needs massive energy storage or peaking power just like wind and solar.

Not them, but IME anything that uses slat-belts is best for minimizing impact on your body (which adds up over daily use).
Good tip. I just recently started tagging my bookmarks because I have too many to easily sort.
Totally agree, application is weak. Don't understand the new listing and task management features. It just seems like a distraction.. why not have a proper table editor before you start adding new features. Also, the time to startup should be much shorter. I suggest they make a simple version of the tool, just list on the left (simplify the notebooks, and tags, etc). Get rid of the homepage. However, I just can't leave that clipper.

Even the simple fact that you can screenshot a part of the screen, annotate it, a toss it on the heap is so awesome. I don't worry about space, I don't worry about finding it. Search is really great on Evernote even picks up the text in images way..... before any tool was doing that.

Also, you can actually save the content of a page to a note (not just a link with an avatar). This is great for recipes that once you found it, you can never seem to find it ever again on google. Having a copy of that particular recipe with the right mix of ingredients I still have laying around. PERFECT!
I would probably never assume I would never have to (or at least be pressured to) travel at a remote company. Maybe there are examples. But being that person who refuses to ever travel would be, as you say, disadvantageous over time. Heck, for a lot of roles, some amount of routine travel is pretty much expected at most companies, especially as you become more senior.
Thanks for the info; that seems weird, but no weirder than anything else in politics.
I am thinking about a commercial data product to address the situational awareness need here. It feels daunting though, because customers would be the likes of SpaceX and other intimidating entities.

because Europe is and will be for centuries an union of countries at best, look at UK, centuries later England has a lot of problems keeping all constituencies together, being forced to give up a lot of concessions, and that from a clear position of power. Same thing for Canada and Quebec.
In a sense they are distributions. Ubuntu and Fedora can also both do it all, and it's no clear where you'd use one vs the other. You're in the hands of different people.
Thankfully existing Bitcoin ASICs don’t pose much of a threat because they’re only good for sha256(sha256(Bitcoin block)).

None of the supply issues that preceded price inflation have been resolved and the demand destruction that has followed and will continue is what is giving rise to increasing job losses.
I think the EU is focusing mainly on the wrong things. Like the single market, making it easier for big business in the EU.

But things that actually make lives better like standard welfare and healthcare are left to each country. Or a single-standard rail network that could really help reduce reliance on fossil fuels. Or standardised road rules and vehicle checks, taxes.. I've lived in 3 EU countries and it's a mess. There isn't a single anything for us normal people.

I know it started as an economic block mainly intended to attract big business but now that it's a real union they're still focused on ticking off the business wishlist. It's a neoliberal's wet dream. But people with low opportunities like old people in Eastern Europe are worse off than in their communist times, and those are the ones that the populists like Orban are feeding off...
Speaking as someone living in the NLs, I don't see any reason for cycle use/ownership to change much. Folks who can cycle likely already do, and those who can't/don't want to are unlikely to start (with the exception of e bikes making it easier).
All this ruling did was strike down the “may issue” requirements for concealed carry in NY.

Just like most of CA, a permit to carry came down to “do the police like your reason”. Which allowed a few well connected celebrities in NYC to carry and most everyone else was told to “no”. San Jose Sheriff (edit:nope, Santa Clara) was selling carry permits for fat donations to her re-election is another example of where arbitrary decisions were rampant.

The court says screening on objective criteria like risk to public, criminal and mental health background, etc are still allowed.
After years of using a standing desk I decided to up my game a bit. I'm now using an inversion table with a built-in laptop mount.

It makes sense in your case. Curious about Sweden and not wanting to make friends. Is this a trend for close neighbours: Norway/Finland/Denmark. Is it a cultural social norm?
That's our motto after all - in varietate concordia.

We acknowledge that we're different, but that doesn't mean we can't strengthen our cooperation. As a very pro-EU person, I think paradoxically, the only way to sustain our differences is by getting closer together - otherwise we'll all end up vassals of Russia, China or the US.

“Results: Consistent evidence, both from observational and experimental studies, has confirmed the important role of cannabis use in the initiation and persistence of psychotic disorders. The size of the effect is related to the extent of cannabis use, with greater risk for early cannabis use and use of high-potency varieties and synthetic cannabinoids. Accumulating evidence suggests that frequent cannabis use also increases the risk for mania as well as for suicide.”

I've pretty much stopped using bookmarks.

I used to have a large amount of bookmarks, carefully sorted into folders. I didn't use most of them on a regular basis, and the links broke over time. The end result was a bunch of broken bookmarks.

> How many cyclists you've personally witnessed using the lane is irrelevant. Look up the stats from a bike count.

I don't think it is, when it comes to the value of the infrastructure. I can undeniably note that the number of humans going by in cars is orders of magnitude higher than bicycle.

> 43% of Minneapolis bicyclists ride year-round

Compared to how many people who don't cycle at all because of the weather? This is meaningless.
