It’s regressive because banning a vice does not magically make harm from it disappear. The addiction issue needs to be addressed in a meaningful and direct way.

The other problem is that many advocates for a ban on pornography use this argument without actually caring about the issue they decry, otherwise they would have engaged in actual awareness or harm reduction campaigns. Instead, they choose to engage with this argument in bad faith because in actuality pornography just does not align with their morals.
We’re also seeing super slow dev build times with Next.js. It takes around 12 seconds for the initial page and then 2-3 seconds for other pages.

I always thought it was an inherent issue in this app due to the many dependencies (9000+ modules for each page) but I’m going to try what the article suggests.

Does Rsbuild or any other build tool provide an alternative to Static Site Generation with automatic code chunking? Because this part of Next.js is great. The production app is super fast to load.

Edit: looks like Rspress does exactly that.

How does age verification break privacy? I have to show ID to get into an adult "bookstore," to enter a bar, or purchase alcohol. I have to show ID to check into my hotel, get through airport security, drive my car, buy Pseudo. Are you saying there is absolutely no way to perform this action online in a way that respects privacy just the same as all of those operations? No way at all to do a verification that's immediately tossed in a privacy preserving way?

If so, then it sounds like maybe things that require age verification shouldn't be allowed to operate on the internet.

Well, if most people can’t suss out legitimate (keyword) porn is bought and paid for (as in production) that’s a larger problem.

Legitimate porn has some semblance of testing, paperwork, and a script/shot list. If you force people to fuck via whatever means and record adult content that’s just a crime - not porn
> especially to teenagers

An honest conversation, sure.

Porn is a hyperstimulus, unrealistic and so reality seems bad in comparison.

This may be why teens these days are having fewer accidental pregnancies.

Those missing accidental teen pregnancies, according to a comment I saw on Hacker News recently and never checked the veracity of, are a big part of why fertility rates are now below replacement levels.

The dichotomy that won't be believed: Ban the "adult" content to force the teens to grow up before they need to; or let them be "corrupted" so that they can keep their innocence. (Scare quotes because I remember being a teenager, even if it was the 90s).
This is misleading. Wooden-handled, six-shooter pistols and pump-action rifles were easy to get back then - true, but high capacity, semi-automatics were definitely not easy to obtain. I grew up in the Midwest back then, probably the most gun friendly state besides Texas; people generally recognized that some guns should be available only to the military.
> Creativity and thought going into accounting ought to be illegal

Our society is poor at creating scales and then selecting a cutoff point for illegality. There are 0b10 types of people: binary thinkers and grey area thinkers.

All-or-nothing thinking (often also referred to as ‘black and white thinking’, ‘dichotomous thinking’, ‘absolutist thinking’, or ‘binary thinking’) is a common form of cognitive distortion or ‘unhelpful thinking style’. People who think in all-or-nothing terms may also act in equivalently extreme ways. They may veer, for example, between complete abstinence and ‘binges’, or between extreme effort and none.

Dropping birth rates are just because kids are a burden these days. With both parents needing to work to pay for a house it's a huge hassle. I'm glad I never had any. My life is much freer now.

And we're not going to go extinct. Plenty of people want kids and have them. Maybe we'll reduce the population a bit which would be great. Less pollution, less pressure on the overloaded housing situation.

No, I'm talking about the need to have a discussion around moving access restrictions to before a crime is committed, while still ensuring individuals have access to due process.

The NRA's blanket opposition to red flag laws is simply one example their willingness to ideologically fight even the simplest approach to a priori restrictions.

> So what's the solution? What's the optimal outcome?

In my ideal world, the US would lean more heavily into universally-accessible but universally-required certification for access to dangerous devices.

Similar to motor vehicles, the default should be that no one has access to these things, but everyone has a right to obtain certification to have them.

As an example, that would look something like national "must issue" concealed weapons permits, but contingent on completing a non-trivial safety course and passing a background check (to ensure the individual isn't spending their free time talking about murdering people online / to their neighbors, appealable ofc).

Instead, we've spent ~60 years wringing our hands to try and square the circle between {everyone deserves access to dangerous things} and {some people are too irresponsible to have dangerous things}.

Why not just start with those facts and craft a viable system from there?
> Conveniently? "The population itself" won't be a serious problem for a long time, which was my point.

You are deeply, deeply misunderstanding the problem.

Maybe when Western-oriented, China would have been able to escape the middle-income tier despite their demographic trends. But with the dual gut punch of being excised from Western technology and an economy that will be in a tar pit due to growth crashes (real estate bubble for example), no chance in hell.

Don't get me wrong. It's amazing how many people China has lifted out of poverty. And yes, they do take "100 steps forward" for every "2 steps forward, 1 step back" that the West does. But this is because they came from very low, where there is no ossified infrastructure and plenty of low-hanging fruit to pick.

For example, being in Shanghai and having nothing but quiet streets because virtually every motor vehicle is electrified feels like being in the future. The same goes for massive amounts of high-speed rail being built per year. But this is possible because A) there is no legacy infrastructure and B) the state can just crush you without any recourse.

It is quite well-known that the more free a nation is, the more it prospers. Make of that what you will.
A truck full of ammonium nitrate, which trucks occasionally carry, could do a lot more damage than 150 handmade explosives.

There is occasionally discussions if we should ban trucks that carries dangerous materials from driving near large cities. The main counter argument is that the number of people who has access to trucks with dangerous goods in them is so few compared to the number of people with access to a car. Thus the more logical solution to mitigate risks is to address car access to areas with crowds.
"easy"? ISP can only apply the rules per-connection, so it's not great for parental control. It also can't enforce any filtering past the domain, so sex subreddits are still open. It also creates a list of people enabling sex sites. It would still be a problematic solution.

"How do you effectively influence lawmakers on policy?"

You don't. You either need to know someone at the top, or organization a collective. It's tough to get meetings with reps at the state level or higher as an individual. Emails, calls, letters, etc are answered by other people and usually are just a canned response, sometimes they're even about the correct topic (I've had them send canned responses that were only tangentially related at best).

The fact is, the politicians represent too many people to give even the small percentage of engaged constituents any real attention.
You're doing the moral equivalent of that when you're setting up on bare metal.
At the risk of sounding insensitive: an ounce of prevention is worth more than a pound of cure—this is one of those things that if it's a problem someone is experiencing, that thing is not their real problem, which is a deep failure somewhere else, way, way back.

The unvarnished truth is that the answer to your question ("how do you stop your wife and/or kids interrupting you every 30 seconds?") for many people is "I don't". They don't stop them, that is. Because they don't have to. Because they didn't marry someone who interrupts them every 30 seconds and then have kids with them and then raise those kids to be the kinds of kids who interrupts them every 30 seconds.

I've been making that argument since the late 90s, when, owning to the UK's age of consent being 16, I was allowed to perform acts I was not allowed to witness recordings of — but seeing someone getting outright murdered was (so long as you didn't see blood) in cartoons rated as "fine for kids of any age".

> Work on the problem from some other angle. This is just puritanical politicians throwing their weight around.

Sure. But if I look at this objectively, I am not sure it is going to be solved from another angle by liberal societies any time soon. And religious societies, or at least those that are puritanical in this regards will get a significant and likely sustainable demographic advantage as a result. I think this speaks to the larger issues of why religion has persisted and why atheism has yet to be a sustainable endeavour, rather than a demographic sink. Truth doesn't actually matter, viability via demographic sustainability is how things are actually judged.

Using server-side templating is another layer of complexity on top of your stack, that just glues together your output. These template languages are not easy to learn. Custom code for loops, escaping, template inheritance etc. Sometimes these are also hard to debug. The documentation of Jinja is huge.

Things get worse when you bring Javascript into the mix. You need to create Javascript code with your template engine without any Javascript toolchain.

Hard no to the string concat approach for me.
