cloudkilla··on Ask HN: The Anti Metaverse
Thanks for the video, Erika is really speaking my language.
cloudkilla··on Ask HN: How did you stop drinking?
Psilocybin!

Now I prefer sipping tea.

cloudkilla··on Ask HN: Is it okay to just bootstrap it, even when VCs are knocking?
I'd also like to hear an elaboration, but here's what is driving me right now:

My father taught me that when you see work that needs to be done (before anyone else sees it), it becomes your responsibility to see it done.

Think of all the people who will benefit from your work. If you were to let them down, could you live with it?

Are we talking MOAT as in moat, or is there an acronym here?
cloudkilla··on Edible insects role in transmission of parasitic diseases to humans (2019)
I was thinking of raising insects for my cat to hunt in the apartment, and had the idea that maybe an indoor farm could become parasite-free after a generation or two of treatment with ivermectin.

I searched the article (didn't read) for the words "ivermectin" and "treatment". Nothing specific, but it did have this to say:

> The high prevalence of selected developmental forms of parasites in the evaluated insect farms could be attributed to low hygiene standards and the absence of preventive treatments.

I kind of assumed that bugs raised for reptiles, etc. would be treated, but maybe not.

What do you think?

( But glass or ceramic might be nice, too! )
