    Cool project! Looking at starting a group of people to lobby my small city to invest in muni fiber. Would love to see what you have if it ends up on GitHub. Quick typo fix on the m…

    This is possibly the best description of my development process I’ve ever seen. I’d add “staring into the distance” alongside the mumbles (yes, when pacing, that often means I run …

    Yep, pretty much this along with some guessing at the stuff that was obfuscated (mostly response structure and the meaning of some of the data).

    Mostly recording and replaying the network request logs through Chrome and comparing diffs as I clicked around, looking at headers and URL params generated from clicking to get a h…

    One of my favorite spa/hotels for a weekend retreat for my wife and I has absurd waitlists — takes a few months typically to reserve 2 nights. However, they have a 7 day cancellati…

    Crazy that it’s been 5 years already. Time flies.

    I’ve been developing in Crystal a lot lately, and it’s a very interesting middleground. You can still monkey patch, but having type safety and compilation gives you guarantees that…

    Ironic that the current trials will take 5 years, given how many times T1s have been promised that a cure is “5 years away” (seriously, it’s a running joke) — but this does look pr…

    Same here. I’ve enjoyed many of his other books (including the sequel) as well, but Children of Time was an absolute masterpiece.

    She even entered a drag contest for the best lookalike. IIRC she came in 4th place.

    There are some interesting hypotheses around microtubules and their potential role in consciousness; this directly ties in with your comments around anesthesia - I've certainly had…

    I don't believe it was in bad faith; that said, it was very much an interpretation, and your use and perception of language differs from mine, so we may just have a different readi…

    It’s not - it’s your responsibility (IMO) to be civil and constructive, which I’d argue your second sentence wasn’t. Your first sentence — while the subject isn’t hard to research …

    There are numerous, due to the receptors it activates. Look into research on fenfen or if you’re just looking to take a quick but detailed survey of the info, there’s a lot here: h…

    LSD isn’t still fully understood there, but from what I gather Psilocybin is probably a greater concern (more agonism on HT2B than LSD). Neither show long term correlation with low…

    It's the same as Novolog, not 70/30 though. Novolog 70/30 is a mix is a mix of two insulins - an intermediate acting & a faster acting insulin.

    I think the "outside of mental illness" is a pretty important qualifier here. I've never hit the point personally where I'd prefer death to diabetes, but I've certainly been close,…

    Cheap insulin works. For long-term outcomes, I'd certainly argue that it doesn't work "fine." But it's definitely better than death.

    You only covered the bolus requirements. You also need a basal insulin for Type-1 diabetes (unless you're on an insulin pump, which is an entirely different class of expense), so s…

    For whatever it’s worth, anti mask movements were popular during the last global pandemic in 1918, so I don’t think it’s that people have changed. https://untappedcities.com/2020/0…

    They aren’t toxic or poisonous, but psilocybin does have a nauseating effect on many people. The cell walls of the mushrooms can be hard for some to digest as well, which is why ma…

    Same, 30lb when I was already a skinny kid, and 21lb of that in the last 3 weeks prior to diagnosis.

    I’m in the US, and all of the advice I’ve recovered from every doctor and nutritionist is to limit carbohydrates. You can “cover” as you put it, and you’re trained to be able to do…
