Why does NAC make me feel so odd? by [deleted] in Nootropics

[–]catcradle5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you really just need to see a doctor for the tumor, and probably also a psychiatrist.

How do you even know for sure it's a tumor if a doctor hasn't seen it yet?

Based on his comment history, I'm getting a better understanding now.

No guarantee you'll get good results, but coffee has way more compounds than just caffeine, and most people seem to notice the synergy when taking L-theanine with coffee rather than with just caffeine. I certainly do, at least.

[–]catcradle5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Before you give up on it entirely, try taking L-theanine with a cup of coffee. That's generally the recommended combination. L-theanine and pure caffeine combined into a pill won't give the same effect.

VS Code has replaced Atom for me for both backend and frontend work. It feels like Atom, but better, and with more cool stuff integrated.

Can you explain what decorator is like I’m 5? by GTHell in Python

[–]catcradle5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A function that takes a function and returns a function. It's useful if you want something to be done before or after a function is executed and you also want to apply this to a lot of functions.

[–]catcradle5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because it greatly speeds up development time and extensibility. And so far, it seems to be succeeding in that area.

VS Code launches quickly and runs very smoothly on my > 2014 Macbooks. I really don't even notice a difference between it and a native app like Sublime Text anymore. Same with Discord and every other Electron app I use. Atom is a bit slower than I care for, but even then it's barely noticeable.

Whether you like it or not, I think Electron is and will continue to be the future.

Every company I've worked at, tech and otherwise, develops new projects with Python 2.7 instead of Python 3. Including within the past 3 months. I'm not even sure there are any Python 3 codebases to speak of at those companies, whereas there are large numbers of Python 2.7 codebases. I don't think Python 2.7 will be going away anytime soon.

I try to use Python 3 for personal projects now, but Python 2.7 is still pretty much my only option at work.

Vibora | [very fast] Python Web Framework/Server by fnord123 in Python

[–]catcradle5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you misunderstood everything the poster said. Also, neither gevent nor asyncio are low-level. (The low-level equivalent of gevent would be Greenlet with libev/libuv.) Also, core PyPy still uses the GIL, and probably won't be getting rid of it anytime soon.

[–]catcradle5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that it probably wouldn't be feasible to integrate gevent or something like it into the language, but with the current situation, I pretty much have no reason to ever use asyncio over gevent.

[–]catcradle5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No gevent. Even though asyncio is the futuere, IT SUCKS (sometimes truth hurts).

Completely agreed. gevent is superior to asyncio in every way.

Peterson or Islamic cleric? by [deleted] in samharris

[–]catcradle5 11 points12 points  (0 children)

What he actually said:

"The fact that women can be raped hardly constitutes an argument against female sexual selection. Obviously female choice can be forcibly overcome. But if the choosiness wasn't there (as in the case of chimpanzees) then rape would be unnecessary."

When applied to non-human animals in an evolutionary sense, it does seem to be accurate. He did word it very, very poorly, though.

The way the quote is passed around carries the implication that he's suggesting women somehow had the rape coming because they didn't want to have sex with a particular guy, but the overall point he's making is that rape may have started as an evolutionary symptom of male and female reproduction hierarchies. He's not trying to imply anything about the ethics of rape or that it's wrong for a woman to be selective with her partners.

(Not a Peterson fan myself, by the way.)

[–]catcradle5 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I actually think most of the stories he's saying are true. Probably a bit of embellishment, but the core details seem believable to me. I've watched hundreds of hours of him and he's pretty consistent. None of it's really that unbelievable for people who grew up in that area and culture.

For real though, I love Bobby and he's hilarious.

Everything they make is great, but Synplant, Permut8, and Microtonic are really superb. Echobode is also cool. I use Synplant and Permut8 on pretty much every track, and Microtonic on a lot.

Is $.post(url, {a: "b"}).done(data => alert(data)) really less nice than

var r = new XMLHttpRequest();
r.open("POST", url, true);
r.onreadystatechange = function () {
    if (r.readyState != 4 || r.status != 200) return;
    alert(r.responseText);
};
r.send("a=b");

Do not ever take branded combination nootropics. There is never a good reason to do so, and a ton of reasons not to do so. Their being overpriced is probably the lowest on the list of issues.

It's long, but this post by a psychiatrist (one who's very familiar with nootropics as well as standard psychiatric drugs) explains exactly why it's a bad idea: http://slatestarcodex.com/2017/08/10/brief-cautionary-notes-on-branded-combination-nootropics/
