I didn't say it wasn't :)

I jest, but mostly I took reasonable precautions and stuck to things I was reasonably sure weren't harmful, or at least toxic. I've had some very bad times with the synthetic cannabinoid, though, and I don't wanna go into it other than to say: I was hella lucky not to have my brain fried. Happy to say I've gained a healthier relationship to drugs since then.
If you live in Canada, and specifically in Vancouver, there are de facto legal operating dispensaries for psilocybin [0]. If you don't live there, but live in the USA, some of said shops will ship products to USA. Now, I don't know if this hits your threshold for "safe", but seeing as the doses involved are quite low, one could argue that it would be safer than, say, starting a new (SSRI) antidepressant if you take into account long-term effects [1], side-effects, etc [2].

I got one years ago to be able to read technical eBooks in a manner that felt closer to reading a real book (ie, a 2 page spread). It's been amazing for that, and ended up being my primary personal computer until very recently.
I'm working on https://liminal.market

It brings the stock market to the blockchain. Like money (USDC, USDT) you bring into the blockchain it needs to be represented by some token, so when you buy stock you get token(AAPL token when buying Apple) with the shares you bought. You own the shares, get dividends and voting rights.

First version is only buy and sell, next is to allow services to use the smart contract, allowing defi services to provide not only crypto tokens on their exchanges but also stocks.

There are currently over 5.600 different companies available for purchase
April-May in the US has following benefits:

-out of pocket maximum expenses are capped per calendar year. Typically, healthcare expenses for births happen in the latter half than former, and so you can potentially save a few thousand dollars, and even up to $17.4k (legal max). Post birth complications are plenty, and pelvic floor physical therapy does wonders. Not worrying about costs for these is a huge benefit.

-new resident doctors start in June, so you have less risk of a brand new doctor in April/May when they would have had 10 months of experience

-kid would be 6 months of age by winter season, so eligible for flu vaccine, and now Covid vaccine too during their first winter

-lots of schools have hard cutoffs at Aug 31 or around there. Birthdays before then, kid is in school, and after that, kid has to wait another year to start school. This could mean 6+ months of fewer daycare expenses, easily worth $10k
Did transition to complex societies in the Holocene drive brain size reduction?
There's plenty of cases - remove the people who have attribute, then aggregate them, then filter the aggregate.

Find me the list of non-deleted users who have more than 50 dollars worth of transactions in the transaction table.

Technically you can always subquery and use a where instead of a having but its nice to ... have.
Does "if it works for you" also go for things like aspirin, antihistamines, antihypertensives, antibiotics, etc? I've never heard anyone say "if aspirin works for you then take it, but it doesn't work for me". I've only heard this kind of thing said for things like homeopathy, astrology, accupuncture, osteopathy, and microdosing, of course. Hence, I'm very skeptical.

[Edit: OK, I've heard people say that aspirin doesn't work for them, but what they meant was that they had pains that were too strong to respond to mere aspirin.]
Being this disproportionately negative makes me think you have an interest in keeping the expensive-textbook business model from being disrupted.

Interesting that one of the main collaborators on the movie, Janusz Kamiński, was Polish.

Polish sci-fi from the Cold War period was full of tech dystopia with a dollop of absurdity: Stanislaw Lem is well known in the Western world, Janusz Zajdel less so, but he was no less talented. Even Andrzej Sapkowski, the author of the Witcher, dabbled in SF dystopia in some of his less known stories.

It is likely that Janusz Kamiński was influenced by them at least a bit. In Slavic dystopias, you cannot laugh at the tyrant, but you can at least grin at his minions, who are usually as stupid as they are mean.

It is nice to notice from here in Central Europe, a tiny thread of a shared Cold War experience in a world class movie that is ostensibly about a very different world.
And the actual vendor website (linked midway through the article) is basically unusable on my iPhone.

Yes, a "no" is basically what I think was missing from that example response. Something clear that makes the requester feel like they got a response to their request.
Chris Sawyer's Locomotion was branded similarly.
I'm in US, so that's all I can speak to. Psilocybin spores are legal to purchase in most states, though growing/possession are illegal. Once you have the spores, you just grow your own. Techniques(teks in the magic mushroom world) like PF Tek and Uncle Ben's Tek are pretty easy. Uncles Ben's is especially popular, because it takes out the sterilization step.
This is amazing, instead of censorship being something the state does, you've talked yourself around to a position where the state can't possibly do censorship.
Do mushrooms make you write incoherent ramblings on Facebook about how you are God and how everyone else is stuck in the matrix? Because I have 3 different friends who all started doing that after dabbling in psychedelics
The reconciliation is simple: Monads don't allow side effects in pure functions (in Haskell). I know it's a very popular idea but it's also just wrong.

(Yet another in the long list of Very Popular But Also Just Wrong ideas surrounding this not-that-complicated concept.)

What the monadic interface to the IO type (very carefully phrased) in Haskell allows is building up a value to be interpreted at run time with a convenient API that looks very like it is an imperative programming language. But it actually constructs a large, complicated value that (per the linked article) is really just a big data structure, which at runtime Haskell lazily walks through (laziness being key here since the vast majority of programs have effectively infinite loops which mean the data structure representing the program would be infinite in size if strictly manifested in memory) to run the program.

In practice, you don't need to think about this distinction and you program with the IO type in the top-level IO context as if it is "really" an imperative language that is really doing what you tell it to do.

But "monad" has nothing to do enabling side effects. Monad is just an interface. Interfaces lack the power to fundamentally rewrite the nature of a language. If you just hacked out the place in the Haskell base library where IO declares that it is an instance of Monad, you could still do everything Haskell does today. Nothing about IO itself would change. What would change is that all the generic functions that have a Monad constraint would no longer work on IO, and you'd have to clone all of https://hackage.haskell.org/package/base-4.16.3.0/docs/Contr... into a new specialized set of functions that work on IO. But that's all that would happen, and a whole lot of code would have to be mechanically translated to use these new non-generic functions. Haskell would not break. Haskell would not suddenly become unable to speak on the network or read files. It would merely become less convenient to use for no benefit.
I made a PDF diff tool for myself for one of my internships >10 years ago.

One of my responsibilities was to get sign-off on any changes engineers made to schematics. (It was a really bad internship! I ended up automating a bunch of stuff for them because my actual job was mind-numbingly boring.)

After the first few times comparing PDFs of schematics by eye, I said screw it and wrote a tool to export to PNGs and then compare them pixel-by-pixel. It saved me a ton of time and my sanity.
Many differences to my attempt:
Luminance is kept different between colours according to some subjective “individuality”, I touched on why I decided against this in another comment. This has rippling effects as instead of being able to just make chroma uniform, one now needs to subjectively adjust both in tandem to get the same apparent brightness, which will never be as precise as doing it mathematically (which would require a full colour appearance model like CIECAM16). But then, luminance and chroma are still different across colours, so this still appear somewhat uneven. Compare the colour swatches here https://codepen.io/rguiscard/full/OJvZLpd to those of Selenized and you should see the difference.
Same things goes for the choice of hues, they’re further apart on what appears to be an HSL-based colour wheel, but by no means optimally spaced (at least there’s no mention of it).
Plus for all of this they used CIELab which simply isn’t as perceptually uniform as it claims to be, especially with respect to hue, so optimal spacing wouldn’t have even been possible.

It definitely improves on some of the same issues I had with Solarized, but in a non-rigorous way, with more of a “good enough” approach.
Not a huge fan of Microsoft but the TSQL documentation is solid. If you're not using CROSS APPLY to tear apart things and put them back together you've not lived.

Amazon's "try before you buy" encourages people to do just this, so I'm guessing Amazon has figured out how to make this shopping pattern profitable.
David Cage has marketed some games in this manner as well
I mean, possible feels like an understatement, iRobot was making maps of customers homes, Amazon now owns this data.
Before the introduction of permissive action links (PAL), nuclear weapons could be operated and detonated by almost anyone.

> The exact details are hazy, but the broad contours are clear: the inspection team found the control of the forward-based nuclear weapons inadequate and possibly illegal. In Germany and Turkey they viewed scenes that were particularly distressing. On the runway stood a German (or Turkish) quick-reaction alert airplane (QRA) loaded with nuclear weapons and with a foreign pilot in the cockpit. The QRA airplane was ready to take off at the earliest warning, and the nuclear weapons were fully operational. The only evidence of U.S. control was a lonely 18-year-old sentry armed with a carbine and standing on the tarmac. When the sentry at the German airfield was asked how he intended to maintain control of the nuclear weapons should the pilot suddenly decide to scramble (either through personal caprice or through an order from the German command circumventing U.S. command), the sentry replied that he would shoot the pilot; Agnew directed him to shoot the bomb.

The 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s were a wild time. Tens of thousands of deadly devices in the hands of two superpowers armed to the teeth, and not a single rogue general. Not one single device sold to terrorists on the black market. It's a miracle we made it out alive.
No. Schizophrenia does. Probably a few other things.
As far as I know it is a possible side effect of psychedelics indeed
And so another suicidal terrorist sect will be born.

I am flabbergasted that you lack the selfawareness to realise you are part of the very evil you decry.

Not in the suicidal way, thinking that you need to be destroyed allong with all others, but in the way that instead of choosing to oppose evil, you choose evil and then claim that evil is inevitable, and then complain noone is opposing evil.

I confess I also sometimes lose faith in humanity and my own powerlessness to change things at a sistematic level. And in those times I basically think that "Thanos was right" but if I were ever given that kind of unlimited power i would probably rather use it to make the problems be nonissues rather than erase sentience. Destruction often feels easier to achieve, yet once one has the power to achieve destructive effects at a certain scale, nondestructive effects at the same scale are equally achievable.

You are at the very small scale of murder (individual action) and proselitising murder (convincing others). At that same scale you can attempt any other individual action and attempt to convince others of anything else.
> Now, I'm not saying you are one or that is your intent, but please be mindful that statements that seem to normalise bad circumstances in an offhand way

In case it was not clear, the parent comment I was responding to was mentioning "if we do that, we'd be tracked day and night wherever we go" (I paraphrase) and to me it's amusing that that poster did not notice that it's already happening right now.

That does not say anything about this being desirable or not, again.

You don't have any say about how I should comment on HN.
> Croatia seems rather strange choice. It is not exactly the most popular travel destination.

Maybe you just aren't familiar with it, but Croatia is a very popular summer beach vacation destination for Europeans looking to hit the beach in the summer. The beaches are beautiful, they have old architecture in cities like Split and it's relatively inexpensive to visit. They get ~20 million tourists a year and tourism is about 20% of their GDP.

It saved mine! I usually work with books and sometimes it's really difficult to tell 10 people to check every single page if something has been different to a previous pdf I sent. They will never be able to find all the differences because we're humans, not bot. We make mistakes.

> individually wrapped cheese

Here’s the problem: you’ve confused Kraft Singles (a “prepared cheese product” that can’t legally be called “cheese”) with American cheese, which is a blend of cheeses.
I once was shipped a _very expensive_ server motherboard from Amazon by mistake when trying to buy something cheaper. The customer service agent (Indian non native speaker) failed to understand that Amazon didn’t ship the correct item, and refused the return. I spoke to another agent and they thanked me and I got the correct item exchanged.

I previously posted about this on HN and one of the responses was “who cares? Az makes $100k/min”

You know what? It matters. Doing the right thing fucking matters. Have some integrity, don’t take what isn’t yours, give back what was a mistake. Don’t fall into the trap of relativism.

You don’t know the whole story either... I’d like to think by returning that item I saved someone from getting fired; or a saved a small low margin retailer from losing their shirt. I’ll never know, but at the end of the day I can sleep with a clean conscience.
The actual legal decision we're talking about was quite clear that a corporation being composed of humans was not relevant:
“While these opinions addressed different questions – concluding that neither corporations nor sovereigns can be inventors – our reasoning did not depend on the fact that institutions are collective entities.”

(A collective entity is a technical term that does carry the implication of being composed of humans)

Queue up your favorite good-mood music, or a just a tripping playlist from Spotify or similar. Music has a huge impact on trip feel for me, and I can normally adjust out of a difficult trip with a music change.

Stay in a safe place, with a trust friend that is sober(a "tripsitter"). And start low, 1.75g dosage or so.
My guess is OP is referring to a bad (or powerful) trip.
Well... about that hard place. At some point it was the Commonwealth that dominated the region. A Polish Prince could have kicked off a Russian tzar dynasty:

Unfortunately, this was completely mismanaged by prince's father and, transitively, the Pope, who saw this as a great possibility to expand Rome's rule in the region.

the percentage of people without a mobile phone is becoming vanishingly small, and even if you don't have one, most states in the west have now implemented tracking of cars, face recognition and the like in cities and public places. Let's not forget tracking of any kind of digital spending including credit cards, which can easily clarify where you have been and when.

I guess you are still safe if you go alone in the middle of the woods without any device.
And Russia has lost 20+ 152mm tactical nuclear weapons over years.

Then one day, suddenly all of them were declared "found" somewhere around 1998-1999.

My bet USA just annoyed Yeltsin enough to put up a pretence solution.

Even in the MMORPG case it should be no problem at all if you get a few thousand new players(that would be some insane conversion ratio on reddit/HN traffic). Even cheap servers are fast.

The writer of this article determined Kraft singles to be the second best American cheese… second to a generic version of Kraft singles.

The perceived effects of psychedelics can be very strong. That is why it's recommended to take them with a professional, so as not to become delusional, e.g. being a god.

However, the effects of even a single trip can be quite profound and life changing.
psychoactive drugs are a whole different category. You bring your whole mental baggage with you when you take them, unlike aspirin.

You’re aware that turning on a blue filter at the same brightness level will obviously decrease the overall emittance of the display? Most displays are already way too bright for ideal viewing conditions at maximum brightness, let alone in a completely dark room. Of course it will blind you at that setting and of course mostly turning off a third of the sub-pixels will reduce the issue.
That’s why one should trust science over anecdotal evidence because a good scientist would control for brightness...
Video games follow the software dev model. I mean most software that is packaged does not explicitly name the lead developer on title. There are exceptions like vim by B. Moolenaar.

Two identical keys, is less secure, for those who would otherwise have bought many different keys.

If you instead buy two different keys, then, when you lose the first, you can know it's safe to continue using the second one. And you can block the first one, without locking yourself out.

Maybe getting two different keys would be a good idea
