Is it illegal to grow your own? It's the easiest way to get something low THC. Hell, you can even smoke (or better, use a dry herb vape) the leaves of any plant if the buds are too strong - from my experience, they have a more relaxing effect.

these are with a low voltage high current winding, instead of the standard 2000v winding, though, which is much safer. The danger of the unmodified microwave transformer isn't really so much that it has exposed mains voltage (although obviously you should be careful around that, too), but that it has 2000v+ and it's galvanically isolated, meaning no GFCI/RCD will save you (and obviously the 2000v will also do a much quicker job at passing lethal current through your heart/other organs)

Comparatively, a spot welder is "just" as dangerous as any other mains-based experiment. Not safe, but you have a pretty good shot at surviving, even if you get zapped.
I thought it was just annoying that they're often on the top results of searches and thought of them as just digital clutter.

But for people to post outright dangerous and deadly instructions is negligent at best and I would say more accurately in the realm of manslaughter at least.
I'm a fan of ElectroBoom, but I have to agree, some of them are pretty horrifying to watch. The Jacob's Ladder video sticks out in my mind - I still can't decide whether it was staged. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_g1z47U_kZQ
Banning tobacco is plausible because it's somewhat difficult to grow the plants. But you can't ban alcohol. Anybody can produce it. You can literally produce it by accident.
There are lots of weird stories behind famous dishes. Like the Pu Pu Platter that is seen in American Chinese restaurants. The version everyone knows comes from Trader Vic's, which basically had (Americanized) Cantonese food like char siu and spring rolls with vaguely Pacific islander names. Then it started appearing in American Chinese restaurants.
Great approach when trying to go into the weeds of a technical problem. I try to first build a conceptual diagram if it is about a process and then fill in the gaps. If it's a more logic based, coding (can be pseudo code too) has helped with understanding
> the London Underground

Just going with the parent comment and I'm asking when did you last use the Underground and what station do you think has accessibility issues? I found that the London system is pretty much accessible with aggressive retrofitting on older stations, but I'll acknowledge that if you have used it say more than 10 years ago then I understand.
True, my point is only that it's far from free and therefore has limited purpose... You gain highly reliable interception signalling at the cost of significantly increasing the probability of interception.

As you suggest, if your use case is so sensitive or critical that you can afford to send 10 laptops and only use the ones that arrive in tact then fair enough - however for the more common scenario of just being a privacy conscious individual who would like some degree of ability to determine tampering in transit - this is a non-starter.

It's not unthinkable that a method exists with as much resilience without attracting unwanted attention.
You can’t transform the area and expect it to remain cheap.

I lived in the Olympic Village for 3 years and they did a great job:

In the wake of the admissions scandals, I'm not so convinced that the Ivy elite are really as special or gifted as you say. If anyone who gets in on a golfing coach's bought recommendation can complete the coursework with all these supposed high achievers, then something seems off. If you define high achievement/accepting challenges as devotion to the institution and a willingness to do whatever it takes to enter and graduate, then I think the picture comes into better focus. Just my take - I'm certainly not Ivy material myself.

Thank you for the feedback. I will definitely think about this.
Plenty of people hate this shit and still watch it because they got tricked. I watched (skimmed) like 12 videos yesterday trying to find a hack to locate my empty AirPods case. There’s apparently no way to do it but each video had a more infuriatingly false title than the last.
I mean, anyone who believed the bullshit back in 2005 was being hopelessly naive, to put it mildly.
There's only so many videos a single reasonable person can watch. And once you scale it it's no longer a single reasonable person but a vast army of low-paid content watchers.

I live in Marseille, famous for being home of the illegal traffic. In the poorest suburbs, there is dozens of 'drive through' spots, where the criminals are very friendly to the customers, almost like regular business, while being well alert for any police raid.

It is a cat and mouse game, where the police only manages to catch kids, and the sell spot just spawns at another appartment-building.

IMO, the french government is blind to think it can fight cannabis traffic by trying to stop the ilegal offer. France is number one consumer of cannabis in europe, so the demand will always create another traffic, unless you counteract with legal, and regulated offer.

I just don't see how you can say society always evolves towards more freedom and less centralization.

I would say the total opposite. The natural equilibrium is no freedom and complete centralization but we have just been in a far from equilibrium state recently.

I imagine over the next 100 years "freedom" will be completely redefined. It was only 40 years ago in the US that you could go to a bar, get incredibly drunk and then drive home without a seat belt. This was normal behavior that is now 100% illegal. It is hard for me to imagine a future that doesn't look like modern day China but with monitoring of blood and brain states as well. Society has already spoken that we will trade freedom for safety. With pooling resources for health insurance we are going to have to know collectively about early warning signs in your blood once possible in order to keep us all safe.

We are going to have to monitor your brain state once possible for early warning signs of people becoming unhinged to keep us all safe.

I mean you don't have the freedom to travel west and claim 160 acres of land anymore. It wasn't that long ago people had that freedom but it is laughable by today's standards. I think this is how people in the future will feel about total surveillance because that is kind of how it is now anyway.

High amperages are really only dangerous (in terms of electrocution) with higher voltages. As voltages get low enough, our bodies' resistance means that there won't be enough current passing through you to hurt you. The dryness of the contact point makes a big difference (several orders of magnitude), but even with wet hands, it is pretty much impossible to hurt yourself with < 12 volts.

The risks with low voltages and high amperages are from shorts causing rapid heating.
>US prisons are absolutely packed with young marijuana dealers/users with effectively lifetime sentences.

No they aren't. Only 20% of inmates are in jail for drug offenses and only a tiny fraction (if there's even one) is on a life time sentence for dealing weed.
The article sounded more like whining because the author does not like the present currents of thought in Harvard and elsewhere in the academia.

I'm not intimate with Roland Fryer or his research, but the phrase the author chose to quote from him ("no racial differences in either the raw data or when contextual factors are taken into account") does make him seem like an apologist of racial oppression.

Not to mention the closing quote (by the author) "truth is the first casualty of progressivism".

Harvard may need to fall, but for completely different reasons.

>Even if it's not most of the strains you buy today are hybrids.

I've never had an ounce of difficulty finding Indicas or Sativas at dispensaries. Maybe there are more hybrids (never took the time to count the options), but if there are quality options available for all three, I don't see how it matters. And, within hybrids, there are Indica-dominant and Sativa-dominant strains.

I think that's a very important point: if you invest time in writing software to solve domain-specific problems, it is a lot better if you can do that in languages that have a hope of making it out of the lab and into software you can run as part of a processing chain or in applications.

A library written in a language usable for implementing whole applications is far more useful than, say, a Matlab project, which you then have to translate into some language before you can actually use it in software.

Python is indeed such a language.

(That being said, Python is a poor language choice from a software engineering point of view because it doesn't have a decent path-of-least-resistance to properly distributing software without burdening the user. I do a fair bit of embedded programming, and it has lead me to the conclusion that Python is a terrible tooling language. I've also had colleagues struggle with what happens when data scientists who are more scientist than software engineer write stuff in Python. It is messy, time consuming and frustrating to actually use the resulting software.

But from a language perspective, yes, Python is a better solution than languages that are narrowly scoped)
I agree on it being a problematic word

As far as I am concerned, if one actually cares about the debate they should just replace "mature" for what they think it means or implies for the behaviour of the individual

Replacing the symbol for a definition is quite handy. People get all defensive over being called privileged, but change "privileged" for "having good circumstances" ( or similar ) and they don't feel called out for it despite having the same meaning

IMO it's something of a shame how much the human cognition is crap at that kind of stuff

You actually have that right in any sane country. The limitations are on the frequency you can broadcast or the volume if you do your broadcast through sound systems.

Actually, only on extremely crazy dictatorships you will have police storming you before you finish your broadcast. On most places, you can be sued but the police wont try to silence you as if your words are a spell.
A couple of things that I'm sad about:

there are medications better than cannabis for anxiety and depression. But no one talks about them. They're on the same level as alcohol and weed when it comes to addiction potential and harm. Just make them legal ffs.

I'm really happy I can get them from pharmacies in my country because they're not on a restricted prescription so they just give them to you if you pinky promise that you have/had a prescription. That said, it's technically illegal.

And 2: holy shit eastern European states are dumb. They are missing out on billions in sales and tourism by not legalizing cannabis alone. And now western states will legalize it and reap all the benefits. Watch how eastern states just keep complaining about the brain drain, workforce drain, money problems while doing nothing effective to combat it. Just cheap places to build factories and buy homes for retirement. Great job.
What I don't understand is the posting of these videos on Facebook by seemingly fake accounts. I'm in a bunch of yard sale groups and random unrelated accounts are constantly posting these hack and engineering type videos that are like 20 seconds of 50 different useless things with no explanations or other information. There's no ads displayed, there's nothing being sold or promoted and no links or way to find out more about the video.

Does anyone else experience this? How are they making money or why is this being done?

I guess my theory is somehow facebook rewards total views and then they are monetizing some other content.
I meant 10 years total. 2018-2028.
> That wasn’t on the list of measures available under the Clean Air Act.

There's a whole bunch of wrong rolled up here. The regulations were about how to stop CO2 from polluting the atmosphere. From there, you try to play Senator CS to shift this into some sort of weird "delegating an industry" language.

But in the end it was all about regulating CO2.

If the EPA had acted outside its authority, in what you term "delegating an industry," lower courts would have said that.

Instead, in order to stop the EPA's actions, the Supreme Court had to change the scope of the law that was passed.

Regarding the US: We already experimented with alcohol prohibition. It failed for the same reasons that marijuana prohibition failed. (I believe Europe did the same thing, but I'm less familiar with its history.)

You're advocating for a "nanny state" law. These are difficult in democracies.

In the US, we see debates about similar issues: Some people want to ban guns, some people want to ban abortion, some people want to ban bad drivers, some people want to require helmets for XXX.

Nanny state laws only pass in the US when the politicians who pass them know they will get re-elected. (IE, the US has some areas with very restrictive alcohol laws, because the people in that area believe drinking is a sin.)

I'll steelman it. In the context of the Khemer Rogue and the wonton destruction of anything seen as cosmopolitan (eg, art), laundering it into foreign collections is a great way to prevent its destruction. And those "peanuts" you're paying the looters are actually quite valuable in a famine. The Cambodian government that came after that was obviously not nearly as bad, but it was still lacking in political stability and the old guard was still there as an insurgency for many years.

Look at how many cultural items ended up destroyed by the Revolutionary Guard in China's cultural revolution. If only Latchford had been there to loot them, they could be on their way back to China right now!

Your understanding misses that there are secular and philosophical arguments to be made against both of those things, no need to invoke religion or go on an antitheist tirade.
It's right in the legal sense. Until someone with a smart lawyer proves it wrong in a court and gets the judge to agree. Ideology does not factor into the interpretation of the law by judges in court cases. Only in the making of the law (by politicians).

On balance, you are distributing software that is copyrighted (nothing you can do about that). The GPL gives users some limited permissions that undo some of the restrictions that come with copyright. Fair use applies to copyrighted material regardless of the license and is not something you can actually restrict with a license. That kind of is the whole point of fair use. So, the GPL, it's (supposed) intentions, and idealism don't factor into the equation here. That's just not how it works.

Sorry to burst your bubble.

Surely that's not the only factor.

Wealth still seems to be a key factor in admissions. 67% of students at Harvard are from the top 20%, just 4.5% from the bottom 20%.[1]

And various forms of discrimination remain. Asian Americans, in particular, have sued because Harvard discriminates against them in admissions, and:

"Harvard’s internal statistical analyses, released over the course of the lawsuit, revealed that the [subjective] personal ranking carried the most weight and the academic ranking the least."[2]

I lived in London between 2011-2014, just before I left my internet connection was upgraded from an extremely unreliable ADSL that wasnt strong enough to open twitter after 5pm and would randomly drop entire internet prefixes: to symmetric 1G FTTC with IPv6.

Why? Because the Olympic infrastructure investments were being sold off and providers were just paying for the last mile.

Internet is an insane economic multiplier and the City would have suffered massively during the pandemic had this infrastructure improvement not happened.

Should it have happened independently? Definitely. Would it? I wouldn't bet on it.

So, I think its easy to overlook these second order effects, but I witnessed it first hand- I was seriously considering leaving the capitol due to the inability to be on-call effectively; I didn't have mobile data in my apartment either.
