For each "wave" of crypto techs (currencies, smart contracts, nfts), I've thought to myself, "That's a neat primitive! I wonder what useful thing people will build on it!"

And each time, I've continued to wonder more or less indefinitely as... pretty much nothing useful comes out of it. Lots of scams, speculation, and investor money, but nothing I'd actually want to use.

The one I'm still most hopeful for is smart contracts. Maybe the only thing preventing people from building useful things on them has been high costs. Maybe all they really need is a widely-used, cheaper smart contract system like Base!

That said, I'm not terribly hopeful at this point.
Perhaps this is the new university, we're not a post-idea economy, and once unleashed, commodity software is immutable.

This is the only advice that worked for me. Before you settle down to watch TV for the night (or read a book, or whatever it is you do to unwind), prep yourself for everything you want to get accomplished the next day. Pack your gym clothes, put your car keys and gym badge next to them, find the time on your calendar when you're gonna go and block it off.

I do this for things that aren't the gym too. Need to grocery shop? Write a list, grab reusable bags and lay them down next to your keys, etc.
The bit I'll add about potential fraud is this is what a reused password from a password dump looks like.

Great read, and lead me to "When VLA in C doesn't smell of rotten eggs" https://blog.joren.ga/vla-usecases and this:

int n = 3, m = 4;
int (*matrix_NxM)[n][m] = malloc(sizeof *matrix_NxM); // `n` and `m` are variables with dimensions known at runtime, not compile time
if (matrix_NxM) {
// (*matrix_NxM)[i][j] = ...;
free(matrix_NxM);
}

Well, that makes much easier a few things I'm doing atm, really glad I read it.

There is a limit, but it depends on the materials and transistor geometry because those shape the potential wells, which affect tunelling. For example, high-κ dielectric materials. From Wikipedia:

> As the thickness [of the gate insulator] scales below 2 nm, leakage currents due to tunneling increase drastically, leading to high power consumption and reduced device reliability. Replacing the silicon dioxide gate dielectric with a high-κ material allows increased gate capacitance without the associated leakage effects.

In other words, the limit hasn't been reached yet.

Also bear in mind 3nm is a marketing number which has a tenuous connection to a technical feature of the lithography. These days it's really just a number which shrinks with each generation to indicate which generation. The transistors are not actually 3×3 nm in size; they are larger.
A rollup means instead of putting transactions directly on Ethereum they go to a Coinbase-managed chain that later commits those transactions and their results to the Ethereum chain in a cheaper way than executing them on-chain directly. "Optimistic" means there is a period where people can prove to the chain that Coinbase lied about the transaction results and after that period it's assumed they're correct.
Exactly, there's no difference between Coinbase and Bank of America.
Dark pattern: a user interface that has been carefully crafted to trick users into doing things

The 'interface' (tool availability) has been crafted such that users are likely to favor Snap over Flatpak... because Flatpak now takes a step that only serves to prop up Snap: installation of the runtime

I don't want to overstate the significance of this -- it's about as dark as dawn-break. Canonical is still maintaining/offering it, and I can get behind supporting Their Thing.

The worst thing about this is the messaging. If they had just done the thing and said nothing, I'd have nothing to complain about.

It could be taken as curation -- the messaging aims to convince that fewer options = more better.

edit: Some irony to this is we'd be closer to their idealized state of 'one way to install' had they instead chosen to adopt Flatpak over insist that Snap has to happen.

I've been in the same boat.

Here's the strategy that worked for me for more than a decade now:

1. Getting the chemical baseline right: Make sure you have enough Magnesium, Potassium, B-complex and Vitamin D. Without these, everything else, including therapy or spiritual explorations, will likely fail. If you have trouble sleeping Mg Glycine + 5HTP are a great combo sans the side effects of let's say melatonine or benzos. Eat LOTS of meat, at least a dozen eggs a week, fish oil and seafood in general.
2. Nootropics: Piracetam + L-Theanine + Black seed oil (pills) + Alpha GPC have significant effect over time. You won't feel the immediate boost like with Adderal but small increments that will change your life over time.
3. Being hyperactive means no carbs. Nothing makes me more hyperactive than an insulin spike. Staying on low carb, keto and one meal a day is the best way to maintain mood stability.
4. If 5HTP and Glycine are great for boosting serotonin, L-tyrosine is amazing for boosting dopamine. I've discovered it last year and it's been a gift that keeps on giving. I've tried Modafinil and ended up in super weird mental states (mild paranoia, anxiety etc). L-tyrosine has been nothing but wonderful. Complete game changer.
5. Sports&hormetic stressors – make sure you have enough physical activity and healthy levels of other physical stress (e.g. cold temperature). Your brain will thank you for those endorphin releases post workout.
The first part you wrote is the answer to the second part.

Well, standard policy for cryptographic keys is to have 256 bits of entropy, with the paranoid number being 512. So if they're using ascii-printable characters, uniform random 48-char passwords have ~315 bits of entropy. That doesn't seem too far off. Basically this means you don't have to trust your key derivation function as much.
Yeah, my parents at one point had their 5 adult kids living in Ohio, Oregon, California, North Carolina, and Brazil. Really doesn't scale.
Meaning is never external. We project meaning as an outside entity through the looking glass of ego: desire for recognition, power, love, and so forth. Meaning has always been internal: "Whoever will be free must make [themselves] free. What is freedom? To have the will to be responsible for one's self" [1], to have the will to give yourself a meaning.

Exactly. I have a full fledged emacs inside termux. With a Bluetooth keyboard, it is a surprisingly good solution. I bring this set up with me when I am on vacation and may have to do some emergency interventions for work. The only thing I have not figured out is how to re-bind the cap lock key for ctrl on the BT keyboard. BTW, I install emacs via Termux via their package utility. Termux itself is installed via F-Droid on my Android phone. One last thing: I also have tmux running inside Termux. Again, I am always surprised by how well this works.

> Monoculture, where we remove the countryside and plant only one crop in a whole field, which then needs hundreds of tonnes of water and tonnes of pesticides spread all over it is inefficient, and killing our environment + natural diversity.

Industrial farming (single-plant fields, though hopefully with crop rotation) is actually much more efficient[0]. Pesticides, (artificial) fertilizers, and irrigation drastically increase yield, both per unit land and per unit labor. It's generally worse for ecosystems and long-term sustainability, but that doesn't mean it's inefficient.

As far as growing things locally - I don't see why this would matter much. Transporting food usually accounts for <10% of its carbon footprint, while for foods like beef it's more like 0.5%[1]. Local food makes the supply more resilient to foreign political/environmental issues (for obvious reasons), but I doubt it's the biggest issue or should be a priority.

Trying to switch to local organic food is mostly just going to serve to make food less affordable to the average person. Alternatively, we could change what we eat and subsidize, and therefore make more meaningful changes while also keeping core nutrients affordable.

Combining SBOMs with Security Data: Chainguard’s OpenVEX
Optimism is an Ethereum optimistic rollup, which means it batches transactions off-chain and then publishes the batches on-chain periodically. Optimistic rollups are said to be 'optimistic' because the assumption is that all the transactions follow the rules and there's a 7-14 day challenge period where anyone can submit a fraud proof and challenge the history of the chain. If fraud is determined to have occurred, then the sequencer who batched the transactions is penalized and the fraud verifier is rewarded. The benefits are two-fold: 1) The off-chain transactions are cheaper because the gas fee is split among many participants instead of one 2) Users of the rollup can exit the rollup back to Ethereum at anytime ensuring full custody of their funds, even if the rollup was malicious or if the rollup halted.

Optimism has open-sourced their optimistic rollup stack which allows anyone to fork Optimism and create their own rollup. This is what Coinbase has done. So Coinbase will now have a rollup of their own where they will be responsible for the sequencer (batching transactions) and anyone can deploy EVM compatible applications, like all of the other Layer 2 rollups currently in production. So Uniswap for example may deploy to Base, which will allow Coinbase users to easily use cheap defi.

I did a similar thing to nowify, but I have several multiple-times-per-day tasks (e.g. check inbox for new tasks), so I have time-slicing as well. It works very similar to an OS scheduler, where there are some high-priority low-timeslice activities and other lower-priority, high-timeslice activities. It won't preempt in the middle of a timeslice, so I don't get interrupted 30 minutes in to a one-hour activity to e.g. check my e-mail.

\x is great but I'm even more fond of \gx, which transposes the last query you ran but leaves the setting as it was before. So it's very handy if you don't plan ahead.

You can also use \gx in place of the semicolon, so you don't even need to run the query in the "wrong" mode first. Just say `SELECT * FROM wide_table \gx`.
Not an answer but a question. I don’t have ADHD, so I lack any experience here. What’s the idea behind a system that puts people with ADHD on a perpetually recurring 30 day deadline to renew their pills? Isn’t that a bit like putting the obesity clinic at the back of the McDonald’s?

Without knowing exact implementation details for Base, here is a summary:

Coinbase will run a network which developers can use for storing game state (think in-game items), and the transactions that this network runs are regularly sent to Ethereum a snapshot and anyone can provide cryptographic proof if they see that Coinbase submitted invalid data and force the network to not accept that bad data (though that process probably not implemented yet and its unclear how the economics would work if Coinbase can't be financially punished for fraud like typical layer 2 validators).

This provides good security at the cost of decentralization, but you aren't held hostage by the centralized actor (Coinbase) like you'd be in a traditional centralized system.

This might mean that these games will have the ability to use each other's state and have any level of interoperability that each developer chooses, and we don't have to fully trust that Coinbase isn't cheating the users or devs.

Because this is a network that's secured by Ethereum, assets can also be moved from this network to the main Ethereum network if users want.

Going bottom-up rather than top-down to solve your problem, I'm going to treat your specific problem as "getting controlled substances is hard; how can I treat ADHD chemically while avoiding that problem?"

If so, here are a few leads:

• Buproprion (Wellbutrin) is an NDRI but is not a controlled substance. Its on-label use is for depression or anxiety, but has been used off-label for treatment of ADHD. Many people are prescribed it as an adjunct therapy to regular depression/anxiety treatment when they also seem to have some ADHD symptoms, or when the drug they're taking for treatment of depression/anxiety causes ADHD symptoms.

• Bromantane is a non-scheduled and in fact non-prescription "nootropic" drug (it's a licensed OTC medication in the countries it's produced in; but is just considered a "supplement" in North America) that specifically aims to treat dopaminergic receptor depletion, by — apparently — triggering the permanent growth of new dopaminergic receptors. Some people phrase this as it "healing" your reward system. (It can apparently be used to undo some of the long-term effects of meth use on the reward system.) ADHD is technically a syndrome, in that it has many possible root causes (etiologies); one of those potential root causes is a decrease in dopamine receptivity in the brain, or a decrease in dopamine production. Both of these problems are treated by growing more dopamine receptors. If your ADHD has that particular etiology, then it may benefit you to try this. (In practice, it worked, at least for me. I took some for a while when I ran out of Vyvanse myself, and it indeed treated my ADHD, though in a very different-feeling way than Vyvanse does. When I stopped taking it, and resumed Vyvanse treatment, I found that I needed a lower dose of the Vyvanse going forward.)

• Tricyclic antidepressants are dopaminergic and unscheduled. You'd have a lot of side-effects from these if you aren't also depressed / anxious; but if you are, they're a good solution.

• MAOIs are everything-ergic, and unscheduled. They're also pretty awful. (You can't eat cheese!) Last resort.

> Also, you seem to misunderstand what UNIX Shell does (hint, ls and awk are not part of UNIX Shell, so, forward your complaints about ls and awk to the respective authors of those tools).

Semantics. Nobody uses bash without those, and having different variants on them with different variants of regex is most troubling. Contrary to that, in pwsh it is recognized that those should be part of the shell that will behave the same on any OS. U ofcourse left out tone of those that come OTB in pwsh (like html/markdown/json/csv/sql readers and exporters vs jq,pandoc,usql,whatever)
