This is not surprising. Pretty much anything that we experience subjectively can be affected by willful projection of our mental intention. Placebo effect is another name for this phenomenon. Meditative states and specific focus in those meditative states can cause cessation of pain, states of euphoria, tingling, out-of-body sensations, etc.

I previously worked for a startup that did denormalization of healthcare data for the ostensible purpose of data "freedom" and interoperability, with a future focus on ML funsies. All the issues we had (besides ones we created) were around the healthcare providers fear of pissing off EPIC, Cerner, Meditech, Allscripts etc. They didn't like their EMRs---in fact they often hated them. The fact is though that there really is no viable alternative, and the data is kept behind a gate and essentially "owned" by the EMR. FHIR was supposed to solve the interoperability bit, but all the EMRs would still own the data, and their lawyers aren't keen to share.

Use Vaultwarden. I use that, and it works wonderfully.

I have been using Vaultwarden for all my home needs for some time and I love it. I host it on a raspberry pi in a docker container and have had no issues whatsoever.

I own kubernetees.com, because that's the way my former boss used to say it.

If you enjoyed this, check out Tasting History on YouTube. He had a whole slew of ancient Roman recipes that he faithfully reproduced.

Delayed choice quantum eraser.

We are hiring, not sure where you are but we offer relocation. For now we are working from home, so for now that probably wouldn't be an issue.

My parents have a concierge medicine relationship with their physician. It's fantastic. He is a complete professional who cares deeply about all of his patients (he works nights and weekends, does research outside of business hours, works around insurance and exploits every legal loophole possible to help them) but holy crap is it expensive. They are paying for their normal insurance plus this service ($3000 annually). This is what it's come to in the US---to be able to have a semblance of a relationship with your physician you need to pay a premium on top of the gouging that your "insurance" already charges you.

Note: My parents are not* rich, they scrape by on social security and my dads part time work fixing sprinkler systems.

Howdy. So, you're not wrong. The promise of psychadelic use in therapy is not that it "cures" the patient of their depression, or even gives them relief. The drug is not the drug. The "drug" is the experience that they allow the patient to have. You talk about modern humans lacking connectivity, proper diet, connection with nature, meaning---the psychadelic in question allows your brain to observe it's own memories, emotions, desires, and traumas more objectively and allows a perspective where change is possible.

The default paths your brain takes when making decisions are obscured or flattened out, so you have more possibilities. If someone has depression, guilt, and ruminates on trauma psychadelics allow you to confront that trauma without the manufactured personality our ego has created to deal with the trauma. Viewing something objectively, or even subjectively but from a different perspective can vastly alter your "sober" perspective of that trauma / event / emotion.

tl;dr: Think of psychadelics as a tool that can allow the mind to introspect objectively

Both of them have reasonable competitors and are hardly anti-competitive. What is your reasoning here?

You really have to factor in the labor costs of infrastructure and operations into that as well. Running your own private "cloud" isn't cheap. And no matter what you do, you aren't going to get even close to feature parity with the public cloud offerings (or even speed, if you are using virtual-machines). There are a lot of trade offs that you have to weigh in that don't always come down to bare dollars and cents.

I'm a huge fan of Illumos and SmartOS and think that Zones + LX Branding are a far superior technology than the hodgepodge of cgroups + namespaces + userland container technology. HOWEVER---the amount of driver support in the OpenSolaris forks, the awful package management system, the ancient IPF system etcetera make it a non-starter for most environments. I have used SmartOS in production (along with the Triton ecosystem) and found it to be well thought out and compelling, albeit woefully immature and buggy.

I think that these reasons, plus the EOL nature of Solaris "upstream", would easily put off most people in charge of making a long term technology commitment. I know it did for me.

I work for a company that uses mostly Node.js for their production microservices. It works very well. Joyent wrote their entire private / public cloud in Node.js. https://github.com/joyent/

It is definitely production workable. It's "LTS" cycle is insane, but it's workable.

We are moving toward container-pilot and it's A+. We have been using an adapted autopilot pattern for some time now with our thick VMs and it's been great. There is no one system that solves all problems and fits all paradigms, but it seems like container-pilot / autopilot as a pattern is very successful at delivering simplicity.

BTW, we are also using Triton (formerly SmartDC) from Joyent and are absolutely loving it. It's not without it's rough edges, but it is by and far the best public / private cloud option we have found that supports containers and VMs.

At work, we are using Vault and have nothing but good things to say. It is a pleasure to work with. Use Consul as the storage backend and it is instantly highly available. There is a bit of a learning curve, and common implementation strategies aren't very well spelled out. However, this is all fairly easily deduced from reading the documentation. A+, would recommend.

pfft, fluxbox ftw

I work for a Healthcare start-up, and we use Consul and Vault extensively. We did find Terraform to be troublesome though, and rather difficult to work with (error handling, corrupted state files etc.). Vagrant is used sometimes for development and testing, but the Developers prefer docker (faster start up, lower footprint) and who am I to argue with progress.

I will continue using Consul (it's DNS interface for service discovery is awesome) and Vault, but most everything else seems like it's a bit too ambitious and ultimately lacking.

SGI brought us so much that we still use today. I use XFS as the default filesystem on all my machines (the AMI's I use in Amazon even use it). I hope HPE finds a good home for the best of the best that still stuck it out at SGI all these years (through the downturn, the Rackable years, and after).

A company I worked at previously bought a bunch of Rackable systems JUST after the SGI acquisition, and we insisted that they include SGI badges with the systems because, in my words, the logo was just way cooler.

A former colleague wrote a tool for just such a thing (Encrypted UDP tunneling) http://nardcore.org/ctunnel/
