That's strange that they describe the selling point as being that you can't get high anymore. If it's really attacking and neutralizing the chemical per se, and if it's truly neutralized in every way, that would mean it would stop overdoses. That seems like a much bigger selling point.
Internet users frequently make grandiose claims about trolls, bots, foreign agents, astroturfing, etc. about accounts they simply disagree with. If you have links, I'd be happy to take a look. When we find accounts abusing HN, we ban them—and the threshold for banning is lower when it's a serial abuser. But someone else having an opposing view to yours is obviously not an abuse.

Btw, if you can find a case in the last, say, 3 years where I've used the word "civil" in articulating HN's rules, I'd like to see it. We left that behind a long time ago.

Agreed, but keep in mind this is “access to virtually all available audio” vs “access to one particular channel/library of video”
I think you underestimate how much they hand out Disney+. For example, Verizon has a deal with Disney to give out free Disney+ with many plans. Comcast, I think, was also offering me free Disney+ access. This must eat into margins on some level while keeping the subscriber number up - there's no way that Verizon/Comcast are paying full price for that free subscription (in most cases, it's only a year free).

Contrast that with HBO Max that has never had a sale of any kind except for a single free trial week.

I also think that people underestimate the cost of serving streaming entertainment. It's very compute- and data-intensive. If you architect your systems badly, which I assume Disney did, you will be paying a LOT of money for this service.

The problem is that poetry/conda/etc chose to make their own thing to begin with, when they should've just improved the standard language tool with the features they wanted.

My first encounter with Nix was using it that way to get my favorite tools on the university computer lab without convincing the admins to install them for me.

Today, some Steam Deck users are using Nix to supplement their console's desktop experience with familiar tools without the overhead of Flatpak or the risk of modifying the base system (in which case modifications are nuked on SteamOS updates anyhow).

Determinate Systems did some work to enable and document that, and one YouTuber recently posted an intro/walkthrough of their docs as well.

The great thing about PEX is that they made an expensive* tool that makes joining pipes like 90% less skill-intensive.

I'd love to see something similar done for electric wiring. I'm picturing something like an electrical box that you can directly connect Romex that's been stripped with a special tool, and then a circuit-breaker-style snap-in for the actual receptacle. The parts/tools would cost more but might dramatically speed up the installation.

*relatively expensive, especially in the early days.
I think quite a lot of people ended up addicted to opioids against their will, by starting with being over prescribed highly addictive pain medication which then ended up making them addicted to opioids, and then later on ended up trying to feed that habit from the streets once the easy access to pain meds dried up.

Personally I've been avoiding oxycontin like the plague for that reason. I had two surgeries where the doctors wanted to give me oxy to manage the pain afterwards and I refused to take them. It turned out in both cases the pain was manageable with less addictive options, so I'm not clear why they reached straight for prescribing opioids in the first place.
It's already legalized, requires prescription or license to administer.

Yeah, all these fugly pop-outs that are typical in the "McMansion" style have to take a lot more time than just making a normal, more-or-less rectangular-footprint house.

They do make the house look bigger (on the outside) than a same-square-footage house with a more traditional floor plan, though, so... I guess that makes it worth it, to someone?

Fair enough. All is not well.

What I was more so thinking of are the unspecific societal functions that evolved to the benefit of everybody, but more so to those who could not have afforded them beforehand: Quality health care, various forms of social support, more accessible education and food, better road systems. The stuff that makes the charts on education, prosperity and health go from bottom left to top right and child mortality and hunger in the opposite direction.

The injustices of the day do not show in the most important, most long term graphs. As far as I can tell (and I am happy to hear your thoughts) this can only be true because people have benefitted increasingly from things improving, over time.

A better way to frame the drug legalization issue is, "should pharmaceutical companies be allowed to profit from incredibly addictive drugs?"

Does that framing change your mind at all? Sure, small-time drug dealers are currently allowed to profit from it. Once they get big enough though, they're usually stopped by the DEA.

The idea of giving this enormous profit incentive to multi-million dollar corporations with huge advertising budgets is absolutely terrifying to me.

In part, I think the issue you described is that usually with C++, the correct solution is the more obscure one, and usually much longer and sometime even harder to parse (by a human), while the incorrect (or less correct) solution seems idiomatic and obvious.

I think this would probably not have been an issue if the language shed baggage as it evolved.
Alleged Qualcomm Snapdragon 8cx Gen 4 Specs Leak
I have an 8 hour quota for the time I can spend in a week reading 'news' and use leechblock to enforce it.

I don't read anything on my phone, only on a desktop or my laptop. When I open one of these 'news' links, there's a tiny countdown timer showing me the time left this week. Once the timer runs out, all tabs close and that's it, done for the week.

I'm forced to be conscious of the time spent, so I read fast and am very picky about what I read.
'illegal drugs' is a pretty broad brush, and treating opiods and psychedelics equivalently is silly. Surely treatment, education and research would all be far easier alongside decriminalization?

> complete inability to let a show run more than 2 seasons unless it's a global hit

It just needs to be a slight success. If the show is cheap to make they'll keep it running forever. The only things that seem to get canceled are expensive or complete failures. I'd be interested if you have any examples that this doesn't ring true for.

> My take is that Netflix is hot fucking garbage at determining the quality of their own shows, and that really - they don't have the creative side down at all. It's too much focus on the stats, and timelines that are too short.

Most TV shows are canceled very few keep going forever.

> Some of the most widely watched shows in history had fairly lackluster first seasons (see: Parks & Rec, The Office, Friends).

Go look at the viewership of those even at the start they were good enough and cheap enough for a second season. Shows almost never grow after the first season. This idea that so many shows just need to get there legs under them is bullshit.

> consider the set of numbers that cannot be described using any finite collection of symbols. Such numbers must exist because there are only a countably infinite number of numbers that can be described using a finite collection of symbols, but there are an uncountably infinite number of real numbers. So not only are there numbers that cannot be described using a finite number of symbols, there are vastly more of these than numbers that can be so described.

Maybe you already know, but this argument is wrong, see Hamkins "Pointwise definable models of set theory". It's a triple whammy: 1) You can't state the argument formally, because the property of describability is undefinable (Tarski's undefinability of truth). 2) Whatever your theory claims about uncountability, from the outside there's always a countable model of it (Lowenheim-Skolem). 3) And if you have a countable model, there's nothing stopping you from having a finite formula for every member of it (making it a "pointwise definable model"). All the details are worked out in the paper: yes Virginia, there are models of ZFC whose every member - every set, every function, every real number - is definable by a finite formula.

Also a lot of nice counterexamples in this reddit thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/math/comments/d9sp9h/the_math_tea_a...

For example:

> "Take your favorite real in some model M. We can take a forcing extension to a model M[G] in which the real is coded in the continuum function below aleph_omega. Now it's definable."

Or:

> "There is a computable real that ZFC doesn't prove is a computable real."
