This is strikingly similar to the downfall of Quora that's on the frontpage right now and I agree with the answers on that discussion thread. The solution, to me, is to establish more moderation. Which is to say, incentivize reviewers

If I may ask, which meds is this with the short half-life? I've heard some ADHD meds take a lot to wear off and thus, result in sleep difficulties.

It's difficult to take this list seriously given that it doesn't have War & Peace in it. Probably the only book that I'll never finish.

This is an unfair comparison imo. Just because Dewalt (or similar) sell a comprehensive toolbox does not mean people won't pay for a standalone screwdriver. It all depends on what people feel they need.

Perhaps because they just made it public?

I'm sorry but what? Do you have any references for this?

I don't necessarily disagree with you, I just don't see the connection between what you said and the subject matter. As far as near 80% cases occuring in developing countries is concerned, developed (US) and developing (India etc)

A simple "yes / no" would probably be valuable even for being a single token.

Nicotine is a stimulant but weirdly enough, it has always improved my sleep (even when taken close to sleep). I never really understood why.

Alas, it's not always about what you care. It'd be way too useful to treat this platform as an exploratory tool, and enjoy contents of different variety as opposed to what you expect. This would help expand your horizons and add n

Have not read the paper yet but why do they only cut the decoder and not the encoder?

I remember reading this chapter and being blown away by the "construction" of the entire Mathematics (for me at that time) by Feynman in what seems like a barely over an hour lecture. In particular, the successive "expansions

Maybe related but Alchohol severely affects sleep quality and adverse sleep quality is known to be linked with inflammations.

They probably mean dynamic.

Terrible is using a dynamic programming language and expecting static features from it. Besides, linters and type hinting have come a long way.

Anonymity is one of those things that if you do not fight consistently for, will be eventually taken away from you. I fail to envision a society where anonymity doesn't really matter for most people because as long as there is a societ

I would rather have an untracked janky web experience. I think you should think it through before speaking for others.

People who are generally ambivalent on TOR are the ones that we need to convert. I believe the message needs to be that anonymity is not only desirable but mandatory as well, especially because of the rise of platforms that literally track

The bit about expertise overlap is curious. After all, why hire someone that can eventually be your competition? Academia is viciously competitive on the inside and it just doesn't look rational.

Have you tried nicotine patches? It's popular for a reason.

Don't overthink it. Just write what you want to write. So what if someone has already written on the same prior to you? It'd just be an evidence of the merits of your thoughts.
