I’ll just start by saying it’s bad that you or anyone else ever felt so vilified. That kind of behavior is the first place my mind went to when I saw just how complete this election victory was. It’s a referendum on the rhetorical atmosphere.

Thanks for reiterating that clarification, it kinda got lost on me in the chain of replies. FWIW, I agree with you about the state of discourse today and also feel the heat from both sides (check my comment history to see where I’m coming from) although I’ve been spared any direct vilification of that sort, but I’ve definitely felt my radar spike when listening to nearby conversation in past workspaces.

My best guess is that someone sees the worst rhetoric from “the other side” somewhere on social media and imputes that onto everyone they perceive as being on that side. Then they break after being exposed to too much of it, and lash back out with something equally reprehensible. Then someone on the other side sees that. Repeat ad nauseum…

I’m sorry to hear anyone would seriously suggest forced castration on you, that is just absurdly despicable. I don’t know how this country can rebound from this. Not even one but both or all “sides” have to be vulnerable with the others to apologize and commit to behaving more respectfully. It sounds comical to even suggest that is possible given the litany of things I’ve seen and heard over the last 30 years.

I’m wracking my brain to figure out how I can personally make a difference. Because what Democrats and liberals and those on the far left are doing ain’t working. I say that as a Democratic party voter, albeit one that has to hold their nose too often. Do Republicans have to hold their nose when they vote for Trump, or are they actually voting with joy? If so, color me envious.

> Only very liberal people believe anything in the NYT.

As opposed to what? America is a wholly liberal nation. Including the marginally right! Who embodies liberalism more than trump? Americans are liberal narcissists that care more about opinions and the right to be an asshole than they care about other people. The only difference is that some of them care about trying to grant abortions and others want to not grant abortions. But all care about bullshit rather than shit that matters, like rent and wages and housing development. There is no political constituency demanding economic rights, for instance, nor any party that stands for workers. There is no party that calls out the government for catering to corporations over citizens as the american government clearly does.

I mean if you want to call conservatives "fascists" you can, but fascism is just a degenerate form of liberalism and it's not like the democrats are any less fascist than republicans. It's all right-wing bullshit that puts aesthetics and comfort ahead of anything that people should actually care about.

I guess you could call the rest of the world "communist" if you think the democrats are to the left of liberalism but who would take you seriously
Are you suggesting I can get pseudophedrine via veternary suppliers instead of at a pharmacy counter?
I will echo this. Back around 2000 I recall getting a QNX live CD with a magazine. That was the ultimate in low friction, I didn't even know QNX was a thing but a copy of it landed in my lap so I gave it a shot.

At the time it didn't support my sound card or modem so it was dead in the water for me but it was an interesting experience that earned the platform a near mythical spot in my mind for decades following.

Keep friction low if you want people to try your thing.

While it's true that doing any amount more exercise is beneficial to the average person, they may not necessarily know/feel it. As we so often see super fit people in the media, it's easy to think we need to do hours of exercise daily for any benefit. Easy to then think "what's the point? I'll never be super fit" and do nothing. Recinforcing the narrative (including publication of studies) that no, even a small amount of execise is quite beneficial, is encouraging for the average person.

> If there are outliers, delays much larger than the normal delay, the system is doing real time properly at all.

Just to clarify for anyone reading, I think you meant:

Indeed, I agree that you acquire hardly any fluency in classical languages with formal education. I suppose that I don't express this well, but I was trying to say that a natural language formally taught does not readily give you much fluency in it either, whereas immersion would give you fluency more readily and pleasurably.

My analogy would be more like this:
learning dead languages in the classroom is to playing arcade flying games like how learning modern language in the sterile classroom is to a flight simulator, and immersion is pilot hours spent.

That is, with respect to acquiring skill in flying, time spent in a simulator is inferior to immersion-dominant learning, even with respect to acquiring skill for the simulator. It is in respect to the accessibility of immersion that I say that there is waste in classroom-dominant modern language learning. With arcade flying there is no such thing as arcade physics in the world, so with respect to acquiring what little skill is realistic, there is no better realistically accessible way.
Adderall is a 3:1 dextroamphetamine/levoamphetamine mix.

Methamphetamine is a whole other level of stimulant.

> amphetamine habits in kids that have trouble focusing in school.

1) Do you have evidence that Adderall at therapeutic dosages is anywhere near as addictive as methamphetamine at recreational dosages?

2) Yeah, ADHD makes it real hard to focus at school. I never graduated from high school, and I dropped out of university as an adult student without even completing one year, thanks to untreated ADHD. Not to mention the impulsive behaviour, the inability to stick at boring things etc. etc. It's not great in our society.

You're implicitly minimising the very real impact of ADHD, that's not super great.

In fact, one of the biggest issues for people finally being treated for ADHD as adults is the grieving process around "What my life could've been if my parents hadn't believed that ADHD wasn't real and my issues in school and my 'disruptiveness' was solely due to 'food intolerances', because my Mom read a magazine article about it once, then paid a quack to stick a probe in my ear, one on my finger, and then rub food on my skin while looking at a galvanometer making 'hmmm' noises sagely."

3) You know there's been Adderall shortages in the USA recently due to DEA manufacturing limitations right? So it's not like they're just throwing out to kids like it's a lolly scramble.

Anyway, it's about as ironic as 10,000 spoons when all you need a knife. That is, not at all.

Something that was hard when I wrote a full AST parser in Rust was representing a hierarchy of concrete AST types, with upcasting and downcasting.

> ... because computers aren't Turing machines and have finite memory, so all programs are guaranteed to halt.

Is this simply wrong or am I not understanding? With finite memory, the halting problem is solvable, but that's different than all programs halt.

while True:
pass

The program doesn't halt even with finite memory. Unless he means eventually the world will end, or the power supply will die, etc.

> If the halting problem was solvable, then anyone with a computer could prove Goldbach's conjecture in an afternoon.

Why does he say "in an afternoon"? Maybe it would take 10^100 years? The halting problem be solvable or unsolvable is not a question of complexity or efficiency.

I read this and was puzzled, until I realized that you are talking about the pills. The nasal spray is effective, although probably not more effective than a saline solution.
> Maybe license people to buy meds and take it away if they abuse it? That's better than the draconian system we have now.

I sympathize with your broader point, but... how is that better? "Sorry, you were buying too much nasal decongestant a decade ago, so no cancer medication for you"?
I read a study here in Australia a little while ago that showed that removal of easily accessible pseudoephedrine had done nothing to either stop the proliferation of clandestine labs, nor curtail the availability of crystal meth. They just switched to different syntheses, and there are still large-scale imports that sometimes get caught, sometimes don't.

People were still trying to claim the program was a success because they had stopped gangs getting pseudo as a precursor.

But so what? it's done literally nothing to stop criminals profiting, nor to stop people getting addicted to meth, with all the associated public health and petty-criminal consequences of that. And now it's harder for ordinary people to get effective decongestant.

It just seems that nobody is willing to admit the whole thing was pointless.
A lot of people’s personal sites are still like this. The trend never really bucked for that.

Although it’s more the websites for designers and artists rather than developers.

There are also websites that showcase these types of websites, although I don’t know any anymore.

I have to say, building these kind of websites is more fun now in HTML than Flash because you aren’t constrained to a fixed viewport. And HTML has surpassed in Flash in features and you have WebGL and WebAssembly and other fun things… well, except a nice IDE with a timeline.
> no driver I know wants to hit someone and injure them

As a cyclist I don't think this is completely true. I've been in cars with drivers who do dangerously close passes on cyclists and the common excuse is "oh I just want to scare them" or similar.

So while I guess it's technically true that even these drivers don't technically want to hit the cyclist the distinction is somewhat moot.
You are not sure what they meant, yet you think you know what they are looking for?
Thanks for your reply! I started Codebuff without being aware of Aider. I actually have not yet tried Aider (though I plan to try it soon!).

It's totally true that a lot of the development of Codebuff is merely me (and Brandon) working through a lot of the problems that Aider already solved! That makes sense.

Partly, my thesis is that if you start after Sonnet 3.5 is out, that you design things differently. For example, I started without manual file selection and worked to make it more like an agent that has native access to your environment.

Needless to say, I'm a fan of the work Paul has done on Aider, and I've appreciated the benchmarks and guides he's created and shared publicly. And Cline is also an amazing project which I want to try out soon as well!

With respect to privacy, we have pledged not to store your codebase, and mainly store logs that we use to debug the application. When seeing users use Codebuff, I mean I literally watched them use it, as we've done many in-person user tests, plus the Manifold Team has been using Codebuff for a while.

We also intend to release a Privacy Mode, like Cursor has, where we will not store anything at all, not even the logs of your interactions!

It makes sense to be a bit skeptical of Codebuff, since we are so new, but I intend to not let our users down!
Sure, but look; if this were a discussion about people making irresponsible decisions that result in themselves getting killed, I can sympathize with the philosophy that we can simply encourage people to voluntarily avoid those things by making other choices preferable. But when people make irresponsible decisions that result in third parties being killed, this is when we make laws and ban things. This is why, for example, there is a ban on intoxicated driving. Not because of the risk of harm to the drunk driver, but because of the risk to everybody else, who want to stop volunteering to share roads with drunk drivers.
> you don't just need a decent government ID; it needs to be from the state you're purchasing the Sudafed from

The FDA rule on this [1] doesn't appear to be quite that strict: it says the ID can be "a photo identification card issued by the State or the Federal Government or a document that is considered acceptable by the seller". It doesn't explicitly say it has to be from the same state as the one in which you are buying the medication, and it leaves the seller some latitude in what to accept.

Possibly some states have more restrictive rules. Or particular sellers might be more leery about what they are willing to accept.

I see drivers regularly perform dangerous overtakes. They do these stuffs and expect the other person to avoid them instead. To me that is very much not "drivers are very adverse to hitting people".

Most of the cats I have had were extremely intelligent... a couple more than any dogs I've ever known - but they're just so damned lazy. I think they just consider whether it's worth their time and just go back to napping.

Bear in mind that cats are highly trainable, but most people don't understand how. They aren't as easily trained as a dog because they (cats) have different motivations.

I'm saying intuition in a complex space we don't understand is less reliable than intuition in a simple well understood space.

Yes. Crypto is absolutely toxic. Just go into any crypto sub on Reddit. Any.

The only thing people care about is the price going up. They'll do anything for it to go up including lying to their friends and family. They'll do free marketing for the crypto they bought, hoping to get more people to buy into it. After all, crypto has no utility so the only way they can make a profit is if they entice more people to jump in.
It is absolutely not the job of a pharmacist to make decisions about which drugs are being overprescribed, and IMHO it's a dangerous thing to suggest. The pharmacist should assess for drug interactions, but we can't burden pharmacists with knowing the details that went into a prescription, and we shouldn't have them second guessing the diagnosis of a doctor. Down that road lies madness.
