Even ISPs will do all sorts of obnoxious things like this, although some public wifi is horrible. I got a $15/year ramnode VPS about a year and a half ago and removed all services except ssh on port 80 with chacha/poly1305 and pu

1) There is still always the question of where to start when looking at evidence. In terms of the question that started this thread, different people find it worthwhile (or not) to spend time considering particular questions based on past

Does any language have as a feature blocks that you must pass variables to? I tend to prefer larger functions but agree with your point. If I ever write (or extend) a language I am going include huge numbers of ways to make assertions or

Thanks, I'll look into it more. I forgot to mention that it does seem like uridine causes increased B vitamin usage so adding an extended release B vitamin at bedtime is an interesting idea.

"Not a medication, but a natural neurohormone, melatonin is Nyx in a bottle." So taking a hormone isn't a medication? Not only is it a hormone, but we take it at many times the natural level of that hormone. There are a fe

On the suggestion of someone here I tried Phenibut for sleep earlier this year. What I've found with it is that it works best taking it 4-5 days a week with 2-3 days off, otherwise my tolerance builds up. The first day I take it afte

"Snap is the equivalent of static linking". So why not statically link? Encouraging software to work with static linking would be helpful for unikernels also. With delta compression, I think my weekly updates on Arch are at leas

Much nicer article, thanks. Maybe the link and title could be changed to that? Even as clickbait titles go, "Holy Grail" is quite bad.

Thanks for the perspective. I haven't investigated that far yet :/. You might be right that it will just be a hard surface when you are laying on it. I have had good results sleeping on hard surfaces using pillows under most of

The particular brand I used for a couple of years seems to no longer be in business, but one good option is Mayan hammocks where you sleep perpendicular to how it is hung. Usually they are not fabric, but the threads are thin and close tog

If this is a real effect, I wonder how many calories a persona can eat and still get the fasting effect. I have a non-24 hour circadian rhythm (although some thing still seem synchronized to light), which causes all sorts of negative effec

Yeah, gnunet.org wins the single highest coolness factor to website quality ratio in my opinion (they have other projects besides GNS that are even less well documented), although there is stiff competition. Here is a short paper on GNS:
