fwiw I work 9-5, i just like being more productive during that time.

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 productive when I'm on strong stimulants. All of my most effective coworkers are medicated.

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 switch to an earlier routine: can't go to bed at 10pm if you're not tired because you woke up at noon; best way to be tired at 10pm is to get up at 6am; caffeine helped me get up at 6am.

Cycling your caffeine intake is a great way to still reap the benefits of caffeine without building up a tolerance.

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. In 10 minutes I'll be right back up and ready to go to the gym and go about my day. I've started dialing back the modafinil since it seems unnecessary to get up anymore and I have some ethical concerns (see comment below.)

I'll also +1 the friction removal concept -- laying out my gym clothes the night before really helps me get out the door as soon as I'm up in the morning. Otherwise, I'll tend to want to go back to bed.

I didn't know that, thank you!

or spring for some good non-homogenized whole milk, way too pricy to drink instead of normal milk but super cheap when you just use it for coffee!

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 alternative that makes this useful. Although ultimately if the customer goes with the standard deduction they'll still feel like they overpaid. What percentage of your target demo takes the standard deduction because it makes sense for them financially?

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 polyfills for chrome-specific features (I think, based on some googling one time, take this with a grain of salt.) What troublesome websites does Chrome work better on in your experience?

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 describing web apps and not anything that has to do with any sort of inference.

Feynman knew this and claims to be the only person to have watched the Trinity test with naked eyes, rather than through welding goggles:

In Surely You’re Joking, Mr. Feynman, American physicist Richard Feynman speculates that he may have been the only person who watched the Trinity Test relatively directly, using a windshield to exclude ultraviolet light. Everyone else, he claims, was looking through something akin to welding goggles.

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 just one flavor.

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) will need to do everything in their power to prevent anything from ever going online that may be an unauthorised copy of a work that a rightsholder has registered with the platform. They will have no choice but to deploy upload filters, which are by their nature both expensive and error-prone.

Why will they have no choice but to deploy upload filters? Why are new/tiny sites exempt?

I wasn't asking anything. The web is ephemeral and the information on that page became superfluous.

Change starts at home.

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 the PyPI team have written a good guide on how to do it: https://packaging.python.org/tutorials/packaging-projects/ . If you're reading this and wondering how to create a python package, follow that. Everything else is going to be wrong, or out-of-date, or worse.

That would be weird, good thing you are not required to get examined in order to buy glasses. I don't know why you think you are required.

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 corporate policy is to avoid chasing down thefts. Do with this information what you will.

I just bought my first pair of glasses from the eye doctor – previously been using EyeBuyDirect. There's no difference in quality but they cost literally 10x ($250 vs. $25). I guess it's nice to be able to try them on in person and have a nice woman tell me I look good in them, but that's the only appreciable difference in the entire process.

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.

I'm glad that you had a good experience with GoDaddy; I also used to work there, I think they've done a really good job of turning the culture around and making the place better.

Are there forums / collections of Russian ultra-unrealism? Ideally with English transaltions -- would love to read some but I don't understand Russian.

Is it ok to steal from the rich (nation-state and ultra-wealthy investors) to help the poor (me)? If I could steal a million dollars out of YC's checkbook I would do it in a heartbeat, wouldn't you?

Can you explain why Browder would bury this film, and how he's done so?
