I work daily in rails and have for years. It's a great platform to learn from. Honestly, I don't enjoy using the front end parts of Rails, and even on the back end side of things there's a lot of non-standard things that ar

This seems really interesting. I was a part of several funded companies and the push for non-sustainable growth frequently contributed to a culture of lies, egos and unrealistic expectations. I'm working for a non-profit right now that

I don't know how the government can claim with a straight face that these substances have no known medical use, and are harmful. That's the criteria I think for Schedule 1, but there are clearly known uses for them, and the harm i

Eh - I find this public over-scrutiny of a company just because it's a nonprofit to be a little offputing. Sure, you want to know your donations aren't being wasted, but I keep in mind that most non-profits where my friends work h

They have around 300 FTEs. It might sound high, but they are the 5th most visited website in the world. Of others in the top 10, I think Reddit is the only other company with under 1,000 employees (at around 250). In comparison, Taobao whic

I've gotten severance (just like, 4 weeks or so?) from the last 3 or 4 companies I've worked for. Just as a datapoint.

Same. Started driving a manual when I was 15. Been daily driving a motorcycle for commuting the past 8 years (not one of those weird automatic ones that Honda makes now either). I never have once wished for an automatic motorcycle. I commut

MDMA was originally patented 1912/1914 by Merck, but wasn't really applied for human usage until Dr Shulgin was working with it over 50 years later.

One of the biggest issues that I see is where the cars pull over to pick up / drop off people. They almost always just stop in the middle of streets, double parking. Rarely do they pull over into an empty spot that's safer for the

None of these work well in houses and apartments in New England, that often have 3cm high door thresholds. Sigh.

I've got a Pixelpusher laying around that in theory drive servos, but I haven't tried it yet. Thanks for the advice!!!

Yea, some combination of that for projection mapping, and perhaps sending directly out to Artnet/sACN for LEDs, servos and lasers? Still trying to piece it together as things get bigger and bigger. My contact information is in my profi

This is pretty great. For my larger LED projects (3000+ lights) I'm slowly moving over to something like TouchDesigner for animations and mapping, but for medium and smaller projects this is fantastic. Will be buying some!

If I recall, there was one set of Python-related conferences that rotated every other year in/out of the US for this reason. While some people would go anywhere, a lot of people really didn't want to go to the US.

Everything on the strip is jacked up beyond anything I've ever seen in Tokyo or NYC. Pizza delivery might work, but otherwise... literally everything on the strip is jacked. I can find $1 slice pizza in Manhattan. Less-good version in

Eh, and Feds aren't state/muni cops either; but both of the latter still have to follow the 4th (in theory). FWIW; at camping festivals, I know your tent also is a temporary residence and requires a warrant for search.

Sooo... if it's possible (I have a Fidelity 401k), is it a good or terrible idea to put a small % of my 401k into this?

I do wonder what it would take to emulate it more properly on a component level. It's definitely a "weird" filter and doesn't behave like one would assume it to.

It's worth noting that people can know what they are taking (within a statistical certainly) by sending their substances off to somewhere like Energy Control, or another analytical lab for testing. Most people don't do it, but i
