    I'm deeply uncomfortable with it too, and that's why I'm probably going to taper down to a complete stop. It's just hard to want to do that when I'm much more focused and productiv…

    I'm surprised that you're commenting about the caffeine and not the modafinil! Caffeine has lots of wonderful effects on the mind and the body. It was essential in helping me switc…

    The way I've switched from a 'wake-at-2-pm' kind of person to a 'wake-at-6-am' kind of person is setting an alarm, popping 200mg caffeine + 200mg modafinil, then going back to bed.…

    Looks interesting. Not sure "refund if we don't find you savings" is all that consumer friendly -- "we charge x% of your savings with a max cost of $product_cost" might be an alter…

    I use both regularly, and the only differences that I've noticed are related to Google web properties (particularly gmail and youtube), where Firefox has to rely on inefficient pol…

    In what sense is this AI? You can of course call any computer technology AI in that it is "artificial" and "intelligent" but this looks a lot like a domain specific language for de…

    Practicing regularly to increase self-knowledge, thinking spiritually, reflecting on your relation to the world – do you not consider that a religion? Organized Christianity is jus…

    I don't know why you were downvoted, this is right on the money. There's a reason we've all heard the phrase "crisis of meaning."

    The website you link to doesn't explain anything with evidence either. All I see are assertions. For example > In addition, all but very few sites (those both tiny and very new) wi…

    It's funny, I used to have a very popular (~2k pageviews a month, 1st or second search result on google) tutorial on how to get a package onto pypi. I deleted it because since then…

    I have a friend who used to load up shopping carts with cases of beer and then slowly roll out of Walmart back when he was underage. They're not legally allowed to stop him and cor…

    Out of curiosity, do you subsidize your siblings? I'm going to be in the same situation and I'm not sure what I'm going to end up doing but I think I'm going to end up doing it.
