   I’m not surprised in the least bit. I keep my credit locked constantly since I’ve had my SSN leaked multiple times (by US government agencies). Every time I go to unfreeze it when I apply for credit at least one of the big 3 credit reportin

    I use VS Code for my day job because I can't be bothered to sink that much time into configuring my editor these days. But I recently setup NeoVim to play with Clojure since the most popular VS Code Clojure plugin (Calva) interacts poo

    Apropos of nothing you can easily buy Psilocybe cubensis spores by mail as they do not contain any psilocybin. Of course they’re only intended for you to look at under a microscope ;) https://sporeworks.com/

    Last time I looked into switching the vim mode in zsh was better by enough of a margin that I didn't switch, but that was years ago. I've been meaning to give fish another shot.

    Coming from TypeScript, having an explicit discriminator field (like "type") is a lot easier to deal with[1] (which to be fair is compatible with the last example given in the OP where they have a "type" field and a gene

    The pill was put in place to prevent a hostile takeover, not to prevent any sale. Twitter accepting the offer does not constitute a 180.

    I don't think even the most hardcore pro-drug advocates would claim that using MDMA multiple times per week is ever safe, but is there any evidence that that kind of abuse is remotely common? On average taking ecstasy is safer than rid
