Meanwhile there are places banning tobacco.

We're just swapping burning one herb for another.

Personally I don't smoke but having tried both, nicotine is hands down better. It sharpens the mind, unlike cannabis which always just made me feel like I'd lowered my IQ.

They're both obviously hilariously unhealthy.
I think that they should change the font, other than that it would be ideal.
This is one of my big concerns with T-mobile acquiring Mint (or any other provider). T-mobile has a terrible track record for security, and companies that it acquires will likely inherit some of those vulnerabilities.
They're not trying to pass it off as real though, the YouTube description is “An AI-generated look into the country's possible future if Joe Biden is re-elected in 2024.”

Basically, it says "this was cheaper then conventional film making techniques."
One thing I noticed from VR is that it is exhausting. Something about it just drains me. Even just sitting and using a joystick. This is aside from even the weight of the headset. Just having my brain process the vision part of it isn't super sustainable. I've found, flipping up the headset every 10-20 minutes helps a lot though.

I mostly play flight sims so I don't use the motion controllers or anything, but I can't imagine having to work all day in VR.
They should have just used standard R7RS small. Creating a variant only serves more confusion.

Run BioGPT on Google Cloud Platform Using Pulumi
Yes - some of that is due to Firefox blocking trackers by default but most of it is real, and it dates back to when Google stepped up their anticompetitive practices like promoting Chrome on every site as more secure or faster, not to mention being very slow to fix issues with their sites like YouTube or Meet which broke or slowed usage for non-Chrome users. Unfortunately regulators haven’t shown much interest in those activities so I’m sure it’ll happen again.
Given the widespread availability of cannabis prior to it being legally available for purchase, I would assume almost all of it is positive.
And how much does juvenile-use cannabis deliver in tax revenue? ;)
Are you using GPT 4 ? It is far superior when compared to GPT 3.5
devault had a similar post like this a little over a year ago[1]. if only we were all floss practitioners - seemingly, maybe naively, the most ethical ground in software

People make mistakes and many people are generally stupid.
I used to love magic squares when I was a (nerdy) kid so I’ve now built a little fun game around them. Enjoy!
Same can be said about alcohol, tobacco, opiate painkillers, flu medication and low energy entertainment though.
Meanwhile the UK has got it's thumb up its ass and is happily maintaining a status quo of the worst of all worlds

1) The police are still supposed to arrest people who are caught with cannabis (It's a class B drug - in the same group as codeine, ketamine, and ‘spice’ - whatever the hell that is).

In reality they typically let people off with a warning but it's still a drain on our already hamstrung police force

2) Drug dealers who sell weed tend not to declare and pay tax on their earnings. Depriving UK Gov of some seriously needed income per this article's headline.

3) Drug dealers tend to sell other drugs, usually harder drugs. Thus exposing people who want to get stoned to a plethora of other drugs that they might otherwise not have come in to contact with.

4) Those people who are hooked on weed (or any other non-prescribed drug) are criminals...and cannot seek help from anybody including their doctor. This keeps them trapped, and over a long enough period of time will do mental and potentially physical damage to them that our NHS will incur costs to fix. And when I say NHS, I mean the tax payers, and when I say tax payers - I mean me.

All of that is to say - fuck UK drug policy. I remain hopeful that it will change though...
silent.link appears available in most of EU. I do not know which VOIP providers are available to your country, but VOIP.MS expanded to EU recently. It is cheap and friendly for consumer users if you can deal with a little technical setup. It requires KYC, but if that is a problem, check kycnot.me.
Here's a video of the flight, where you can see the charges activate and venting start at about 15:12, the linked time: https://youtu.be/NCYSVmSPM7E?t=663

You can decide how long that is before and after, though I'll note that it may be complicated to determine what's not nominal: Starship has an unconventional staging maneuver that's basically a spin.

I'll also note that "they" didn't send anything; the FTS is autonomous, and will trigger on violation of its conditions, which is probably (1) departure of the instantaneous impact point (where the rocket will hit if all thrust stops now) from a safe ground corridor or (2) indications of disintegration of the vehicle. "The vehicle is doing something weird" is not a condition for flight termination.

What's old is new again!
Err, no sh*t. If it did, it would be conscious.
I wonder how much revenue is displaced. This isn't necessarily an increase in tax revenue.

My personal anecdote is I've replaced social drinking with social cannabis use now that it's legal. It feels good and I don't have to worry about the hang over. The cost is fairly similar for a night of drinking or a few joints.
Traditionally, you are supposed to write with less pressure and even hold the pen with less pressure. Once you teach yourself to do this, it is much less tiring than writing with a ball point pen. I write a lot. It's how I think. I'm orders of magnitude better at thinking when I use a pen and paper to jot and doodle than when I do not.

I also find that writing to take notes is much better than notes taken electronically. You can't write fast enough to transcribe. So you are forced to pay attention, process the information, compress it into nuggets (that may only make sense to you) and write those down. The notes aren't the point. The process means you retain more and understand better. If I wanted a transcription (which is certainly easier with electronic methods), I'd simply record.

I injured my wrist and hand a few years ago and simply would not be able to write as much as I do if I had to use a ball point pen.

Give fountain pens another try. A lot of the things that make them "impractical" is only an issue with bottom of the barrel, cheap pens.

Better takeaway is actually:

> For the first time in the U.S., adult-use cannabis tax revenue declined across legal states in 2022.
> To those saying "Oh I can tell it's fake, obviously!", consider: will your parents/grandparents?

Doesn't matter. The best propaganda isn't fake, but truthful. It emphasizes true stories that further its goal, and de-emphasizes or buries stories that hinder it. E.g. https://ifamericansknew.org/media/nyt-report.html
IntentSeek helps uncover hidden intentions on any website, giving you greater clarity and control online.
Well, you say

> Saying that DevOps tooling changes every year is absolute nonsense.

And then you list 5 technologies with an alleged lifespan of half a decade, which sort of hints at the idea that someone would need to learn/update a new tooling skillset once a year.

In that light, GP's comment doesn't sound so wild.
I read this book when I was learning functional programming. Since I started learning fp with Haskell, I couldn't figure out in the beginning how you create any meaningful programs with it. All I had were small toy programming problems from the Haskell book I was reading. This book hand-held me through learning fp and the two things that, for me, helped connect the dots were the Space Invaders type game that you build in one of the chapters of HTDP2 and Scott Wlaschin's Domain Modeling Made Functional by Scott Wlaschin. The Space Invaders game showed me how you can create a bigger program that actually is of moderate complexity by composing little functions together!

However the book is an introductory book, so there is a lot of basic stuff if you already know programming.
> Technology should theoretically be able to help reduce the influence of propaganda through things like new types of decentralized news distribution.

Why and how? Maybe I don’t know what “decentralized news distribution” means, but whether or not it’s decentralized seems irrelevant to me. People pick sources to follow and share news with others; if those sources are producing propaganda, then people are amplifying propaganda.
>more like a poetry

More like Vogon poetry to be exact...
He is not directly doing this. He is using Forefront.ai that offer GPT4 for free in their service. So, the guy is ripping off some VC money, not directly OpenAI's. The question remaining is what is Forefront.ai business model?
I could not agree more, I've never met Musk but he's probably always been kind of a jerk. My-way-or-the-highway people with Asperger's usually are, however social media seems to magnify the worst traits of someone's personality and expose it to the world over a megaphone. IMO if he'd just logout of Twitter things would get a lot better for his companies, including Twitter, but social media got him. Very few people are immune to social media's grip.
IBM got to this point for a very basic reason - they don't pay well.
Probably positive change in tax revenue, since cannibis is extremely tax-inefficient. (e.g., https://www.irs.gov/about-irs/providing-resources-to-help-ca...)

Probably, does it have a GUI on its own, or is this something every company needs to implement themselves?
This might be true but without question cannabis is the safer recreational drug. If you don't want government involved at all I can see the argument for both but if you have to choose one it's cannabis every time.
Not sure if it's everywhere yet, but where I live, QFC and Fred Meyer have started scanning IDs for every alcohol purchase, which is a bit disturbing because that block of data on the back of your ID has a lot more than your birthday on it. I have a passport card that doesn't scan but is still valid ID, but I wonder if there's any legal issue with printing your own barcode that says "mind your own business" or something and sticking it on there.
And in some of them driving with expired registration is a misdemeanor. Hardly seems worth risking having to pay a lawyer, court costs, plus the time & aggravation versus just getting the plates.
They dont usually know formal arithmetic multiplication but they well understand the concepts of repeated addition and subtraction. Most places in the world do start teaching multiplication at age 6/7.
I guess the question is - is there an open source software that forces the cellular modem to communicate only to one tower (of your choice)? this way, the exact location will never be known?
Isn't the issue here they are abusing the free service? This project will probably justify the end of the free service.
> Does an ant on the right drugs not hallucinate?

I think we have no way of knowing, just like we don't know if an ant has consciousness or not.
Thank you.

Cripes, someone else actually bloody said it! I second it, vehemently.

All punishment does is cement the us vs. them line between the wielders of the enforcement mechanism, and the people it is enforced upon. If you can't get the populace working with and alongside you it's a losing prospect.

This is anathema to leadership/power hungry types, who believe they are the bearer of the One True Way, or the Anthropromorphic manifestation of Common Sense; but show me a crime spike, and I'll show you rampant loss of faith/confidence in the system as a cause, not merely a symptom.

This is why "Good enough for Government work" as a perjorative is a bloody terrible thing.
It's a temp work visa specific to those trades. They said H1B but maybe they meant something else. There are thousands of them in the bay area alone. In each parlor only 1 person spoke english. It was hard enough to get them to use more force. Oh, I should share that lesson learned. Whatever you do, when trying to get the parlor owner to translate "harder", don't use the phase "make me cry".
From your comments it seem you're in Germany where the legal drinking age is 16, so it's not surprising
1. Apps seem to be a useful tool. They help a lot of people who either won't use or are not helped by traditional therapy. Think of them like workbooks - they're an alternative that may be better for some.

2. There is no country as far as I'm aware that can meet the demand for mental health services, from the most socialized to the most open market. None. Therapists are always full, most people don't want to be therapists, and the demand for them is super high.

I have no idea how to solve this. A lot of therapists also tend to stop being therapists pretty early in their career or radically reduce how many patients they see. Basically it just sucks to be a therapist no matter how much we pay and we can't make it better.
> fuck UK drug policy

And UK policy on (potentially) crypted data.
There's always the possibility of a rocket blowing up during launch, which is why self-destruct devices are installed on all of them, so that range safety can prevent destruction to populated areas.

But with the launchpad being in the state that it was in, disaster was a certainty.
Tobacco is highly addictive and carcinogenic. Marijuana doesn't cause physical withdrawals, and while certainly isn't good for your health, it does not cause lung cancer and emphysema anywhere close to the rates of tobacco.
You wrote about me deriding bald people in this thread (telling me it's bad "to deride people who have no hair"). My response above was about that: that I did no such thing. I mentioned bald people vs people with hair as an example of a sorites ("no clear boundaries") problem. Not to cluster them with hype-promoting developers (that doesn't even make sense).

As for the others types that you mention, sure: the very purpose of the original comment was to deride people promoting hype.
And non-opiate painkillers, anti-anxiety medications, antidepressants, stimulants.

"What if people were happy and content with life but its actually bad" is such a puritan view of the world.
This has been my experience too. I think of Github as more like a social media platform that incorporates git as a convenient feature. Large corps use it as a marketing/PR forum and regular people use it to connect to other people interested in programming.
"Populism refers to a range of political stances that emphasize the idea of "the people" and often juxtapose this group against "the elite".

Applications should not be able to register themselves as the default handler for file and uri types.

Google should be forced to open the system settings panel that allows users to change the default browser, not do it for them. If this window unfairly favours one browser over another, I'd say that would be anti-competitive, but requiring to go through said window is not.
Just curious, what's the penalty if it is used for training or other things (purposely or accidentally)?
Chrome does not automatically set itself as the default browser.
According to the article this does not seem to be the case:

> Gizmodo was able to replicate the problem. In fact, we were able to circumvent the issue just by changing the name of the Chrome app on a Windows desktop. It seems that Microsoft threw up the roadblock specifically for Chrome, the main competitor to its Edge browser.

> Mozilla’s Firefox has its own one-click default button, which worked just fine throughout the ordeal.

so no, this doesn't appear to be about an app using a backdoor API, it's specifically targeted at Chrome.
it's a different kind of 'beauty' :)

In some strange way it reminds me of Koyaanisqatsi, now 40 years old (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35764584)

I saw it in a movie theater a long time ago, the images where exiting, the music unlike anything I had every heard... It was stimulating and at the same time uncomfortable, I remember I was glad to finally see the credits after 1.5 hours of a bombardment of sound.

Still it made a big impression on me and made me discover a whole new genre of music and composers.
I just replaced the credit card on my up my account with a Privacy.com virtual debit card with a monthly spending limit for that card equal to my bill. It seems to still be giving me the AutoPay discount but I’ll wait and see when my May bill comes in a few days.
>My best guess is entering "personal or company related information into the services"?

I'm not really familiar exactly on how ChatGPT works but does it get trained on input data(search queries)? People are also "leaking" their personal information to Google when they search for something personal like health issues, financial issues, family issues etc.

What is the privacy policy of these chatbots afer-all?
Breaking it for everything would be one thing, but in this case, the update only impacted the application when it was named Chrome.exe. Changing the name or doing the same thing with Firefox still worked the way it had with Chrome. This would point to a deliberate action on Microsoft's part to stifle one particular competitor.

I wonder if the opioids crisis had a hand in changing the approach to pot, to provide a manageable alternative comfort drug.
My entire point was that there are two different types of 'love', yet the left wants to talk to grade school children about LGB people 'loving' each other constantly. And since theyre not talking about family or platonic love, were talking about romantic/sexual 'love', I don't think that's an appropriate subject for school children.
Totally anecdotal but I personally reallocated spending away from alcohol and nicotine after receiving my medical cannabis prescription and working with my therapists and doctors on monitoring.

My life is so much healthier and better in every possible way and I directly attribute cannabis to being a major part of addressing severe trauma, PTSD, MDD, and anxiety (after 20 years of federal affiliation prevented it).

Also, note that the recreational (and medical) market has enough options of tinctures, oils infusions etc... that it's trivial to avoid combustion smoking.

I am unaware of any long term studies that show medical risks to consuming THC, CBN, CBD in a non-combustion way.
> The cognitive dissonance is astounding.

It really isn't so bad if you put a bit of good faith in your reasoning
I'm not even criticising that website which honestly isn't that bad, but the trend.
People don't (generally) want to stand next to a 13 year old while looking at what porn/sex toys to buy, but beyond that it's pretty much the same argument. Alcohol/drug sale restrictions are probably the more interesting half but I'm not so sure drugs and media are fungible. After all, there are valid places to draw the line beyond "no government involvement on anything whatsoever" and "government involvement on everything moral because we did it on one thing".
Oh yeah, all of that's very much undefined. Every attempt at a "humane" interface inspired by Raskin's post-Macintosh work always stops well before getting to that point.

There may be a much better world of human-computer interaction lurking in these sorts of ideas but getting out of forty* years of refinement of the window-icon-mouse-pointer paradigm, and forty years of building all sorts of tools and toys within it that are not designed to be decomposed into separate actions usable in any context, is a huge effort.

Or there may not, I feel like people have kept trying to do stuff like this over and over again and we just keep on ending up back in the world of monolithic apps that are entire toolsheds worth of tools, each with their own way to do the same things.

* or more, I am counting from the release of the original Macintosh, please feel free to add on sixteen more years if you'd prefer to count from Englebart's Mother Of All Demos, or forty more if Vannevar Bush's Xanadu feels like the place to put a stake in the sands of time and say "modern computing methods began here".
*Has delivered. This is since 2014.

What a strange title to mask the actual first line:
" 2022 tax collection dipped from 2021."
Likely similar to as Juvenile-use alcohol use. Your snark is cute, but your reasoning flawed - people buy drugs (alcohol, tobacco, firearms, weed); If there's easier ways to get it that are taxed, those channels tend to get used.
im pro cannabis and i agree with your points. Just an observation

So like almost every news website they added a title picture to every article to drive engagement. The problem here is that they used a picture where a face was visible, they have to use some generic image instead.

The whole trend of adding stock pictures to everything only creates distractions. It's bad for the reader, good for the publisher. The pictures are either useless or misleading.
becoming a grail should be a amazing accomplishment.
Totally agree. Properly restored vintage pens are absolutely awesome. You don't have to go as high end as a vintage Parker 51. Try an Esterbrook. They were the BIC of their day and are amazing.

Very important warning regarding Parker 51s or any modern Parker. Do not buy the modern Parker 51!! The brand Parker is now owned by a company that is choosing to take advantage of people who remember the Parker brand and foisting total garbage on them.
Can you also use cartridges with the TWSBI Eco? A first pen should give you the option.

I haven't tried the Pilots, but the standard cartridge could change my recommendation to them.

GrapheneOS has a network permission that you can toggle.

I'm still hoping for an application firewall that will also let me use my real VPN, or hoping that my VPN provider will integrate this functionality directly so I don't have to choose between one or the other. I find trying to do everything over Tor quite limiting due to the number of web admins blocking it entirely. Even VPNs are starting to get frequently blocked, unfortunately.
