The part I'm struggling with is where "neuroplasticity" turns into "your psyche collapses". That sounds more like a metaphor than an actual mechanism
Did it actually change anything for you long-term or was it mostly profound while it was happening?
This seems like one of those areas where "double-blind randomized trial" sounds much cleaner on paper than it actually is. If nearly everyone can tell whether they got the drug, expectancy becomes a pretty nasty confound
Yeah, "psychedelic toad" sounds a lot more whimsical until you actually live somewhere they show up in the backyard
How a tiny self-published pamphlet apparently created a whole practice that was later documented as if it had some deeper historical tradition behind it
The part that bothers me is that preservation has become the customer's problem while continued access remains the vendor's decision
The most damning part is that signing in isn't some obscure edge case. It's the front door to one of the biggest games ever made
The difference is that Linux usually fails loudly and gives you something to investigate. Microsoft software often fails behind five layers of UI etc.
The hardest part of the Halo 1 campaign is apparently defeating Microsoft account creation

I like the idea of treating limewash as maintenance rather than a permanent cure. That is probably closer to how these materials were historically used anyway
This makes me want to see lime used more in ordinary homes
Yet carbonation is not universally helpful
I think the problem is that these things can both be true. Pesticides can be a much bigger threat to native insects, while dense managed honeybee populations can still put extra pressure on native bees in some places
The hard part is probably that "native bees" are not a drop-in replacement for managed hives you can put on a truck and move between farms
I had no idea winter survival could come down to getting one brief warm spell at the right time so the colony can loosen up and move a few inches
Wow... And I think designing the hive so the bees' own grooming behavior is actually effective seems like a much better first line of defense
Spider venom saving bees was not on my bingo card, but this is genuinely cool. Obviously "works on mites in the lab" is a long way from "works safely and cheaply in a real hive", but varroa is such a nasty problem that…
In some ways the more interesting question might become whether Martian life, if found, shares the same basic biochemistry as Earth life
Maybe benevolent in the same way a heat-ray is a form of urban renewal
What I like about Mars stories like this is that they are a good antidote to both extremes: "we found life!" and "there is nothing interesting here"
The most worrying part here is not even whether this specific issue deserved a CVE. It is the incentive structure.
The permission to intervene matters because otherwise this risks becoming a fight between Apple, the Commission, and a few large industry players
It also fits the broader theme here: too much important behavior seems to live in the "application layer" of the charger, while the more durable source of truth is elsewhere.
