Yes absolutely, I'm all for giving addicts the help they need. I just don't think haphazardly making it available OTC without a prescription like the GP suggested would be the right decision in the current situation. People already abuse OTC medications with a lot less recreational potential, stuff like whippits and DPH. Adding Suboxone to the mix would, in addition to helping the addicts that want to quit, raise a new generation of buprenorphine addicts.

Despite its miraculous efficacy for addiction treatment it certainly has some recreational potential and the long lasting opioids used for maintenance are a bitch to quit. Many people stay on the stuff for life because while you can taper down it's really, really hard to drop the last bit. While milder than with the fast-acting opioids, the physical withdrawals go on for weeks. With heroin or fentanyl they're over by day 3 or 4 and it's all mental after that.

In my ideal gay luxury space communist world most drugs would be available for anyone after a doctor's consultation where you learn basic harm reduction and such. Currently people abuse OTC medications or buy fentanyl laced stuff of the street to get high even though they're absolute trash for that. Safer options exist.

Addicts will find a way. Buprenorphine is the most abused opioid in Finland. Which by the way has the most youth drug deaths in Europe[1]. Granted it's usually Subutex (just buprenorphine) rather than Suboxone (buprenorphine + naloxone) but there's not much difference unless you're using intravenously because buprenorphine has such a high binding affinity.

I agree that there's a huge problem with opiates and am in favor of legalizing everything, but it's good to realize that buprenorphine is not a magic candy that fixes everything - you're just replacing an addiction to a deadly feel-good opiate with an addiction to a slightly less feel-good opiate with a larger therapeutic index.

Non-geeks dislike the hassle of 2FA enough as it is, having to enter their phone number every time too sounds like it would hurt adoption quite significantly.

I was surprised to see so little about Oracle Cloud on this thread. I also use their free VMs for personal stuff and for that they are amazing. For actual business needs I would never trust Oracle in the slightest but their free tier is the best among all providers I've found.

In the end I ended up signing up with a paid account for Oracle so I could host my domain's DNS on their cloud thingamajig, but it's the only paid service I use while the VMs are free. For the last months Oracle has been billing my card 0.01 EUR/month for the DNS which I find hilarious as it's probably less than their transaction fee. Also means I can file support tickets if I need to, which I think the free tier lacked.

That must be it then, I wasn't aware. Thanks for correcting me.

rt.com does not show up in your search results when searching for either "rt" or "russia today".

I agree it's gotten a lot worse recently. Especially wrt the already seen videos. When playing a video it's disturbingly common to not have a single fresh, unseen video in the related/recommended sidebar.

Nobody really knows with the new vanity TLDs. They probably won't just disappear into thin air, but price hikes or other dark behaviours from their owners are possible. Delivering mail from them might be a bit harder too.

.io already raised their prices once it became the hip and cool TLD. .ai will likely see the same fate. On top of that there's the possibility that ccTLD's might impose restrictions on foreigners getting their domains.

I'd say go with the traditional ones like com/net/org, or your own country's ccTLD.

Thanks, changed it to hopefully ease the load.

Seems down, here's a mirror: https://web.archive.org/web/20220419110330/https://www.mattm...

Really? This is contrary to what I've heard from friends who've worked at Lidl. Admittedly my sample size is just 3 and all local to Finland, but over here Lidl seems to be regarded as a good employer, and when you factor in the various bonuses, they pay well above market rate.

That really sounds like worse to me.

Turn it into a function:

    rip() {
        curl -G -H 'Accept: text/plain' \
        --url https://dontbeevil.rip/search --data-urlencode "q=$@"
    }

Now `rip hello` works.

Even worse. On MacOS the scrollbars are invisible by default, and only appear while you scroll, plus a second or so after stopping.

So to grab a scrollbar in MacOS you first have to scroll the document to make the scrollbar appear. Then you have under two seconds to move the pointer on top of the narrow scrollbar so it expands allowing you to grab it before it disappears again.

Why is fortran so much more efficient (or easier to optimize)?

Not yet, but soon. CEO said that in the coming months everyone is expected to transition back to 80% office work and 20% remote at most.

Which is why I'll be looking for a new remote job soon.

Is this as bad as it looks?

We're on the process of migrating from LastPass to self-hosted Psono[0]. I've not yet used Psono enough to say anything except that it seems better than LastPass, but that's not a hard goal to reach. With LastPass the whole UI/UX seemed awfully complex and cluttered and devoid of many handy QoL features like copying a password straight to clipboard. Their Chrome extension is also a true heavyweight[1].

`[object Object]` is my favorite thing to fill out these forms with. I'm hopeful it's made at least a few devs go "Ah what the hell is broken now?"

I tried to buy a property, they took my money but I never got anything for it. :(

This is the only mention of pricing that I can find on your site unless I sign up. I wonder what the cost is for >25 MAU.

My main gripe with any non-WhatsApp chat app on Android is the same: notifications never "just work". I don't know if it's just my Samsung or what, but I can't get Telegram or Signal to reliably deliver notifications to me when they are closed or in the background, only when I open the app.
