tl;dr: we need an open source browser & infra, and there are candidates.

How c[u]ome, with all the power of open source we still do not have an open browser with an open sync infra?.

emotions aside, this is dumb (some words cannot be used). Why can't we, as a group, stop complaining, and actually devote real time hours into developing the serenity browser to work as chrome / brave / firefox?

Why can't we, use the knowledge we have gained from IPFS and actually work on a distributed no server sync platform?

Why can't I, simply stop using the mentioned above software and devote myself into something more hopefully reliable?

I think it is hard to lose your daddy and leave home, but it's something we all have to do in order to actually grow.

I don’t know if we need a new one. Firefox is still a good (the best?) browser IMO. Developing a new one is really difficult and many more intelligent people than me have failed doing it.

But if you feel like you have to act, do so and do a show HN; I’m always willing to give a new browser a try :-)

It's a bit sad that we still see these kind of posts (no offense to OP, we all need to eat), but linked in is a cesspool of spam, and relying on it or even being eerie of not using it is demeaning.

How did we get to rely on a _platform_ in order to feed ourselves and our possible children or cats? (with so many options available)

the recruiters which _rely_ on a linked in link or on a PDF are usually generic anyway, mostly...

Because it’s convenient for 99% of people 99% of the time. OP’s case is an exception. Moreover, we don’t know why OP has been really banned, it could have been justified.

That aside, you just go to Indeed and apply to a job. It’s that easy. LinkedIn isn’t a requirement.

exactly, this _convenience_ is a bit alarming, to me. but i guess, if it works, it works, until it doesn't.

I've done the same but for ~8 years thinking it helps me to deal with my PTSD. unfortunately while _calming_ it actually increased my paranoia, anxiety and stress.

I feel stupid to realize this after so much time, but quitting completely and focusing on a more healthy diet and exercise did the trick for me. it took some time but eventually I am weed free and feeling normal again.

it was a really strange feeling to realize how bad it is for me personally.

currently I puff on some occasions, with friends, but never at home without a reason, no paranoia, no stress and no _out of nowhere_ anxiety.

What a bunch of corporate nonsense...

it seems that many people in the west always try to find the _magic pill_, something you can swallow and forget, but in reality what's need to change is the way of living. You cannot expect working 16 hours a day, being stressed whole day, take acid on the weekend and make it go away.

in addition this article is evil, since psychedelics are not for everyone, it requires a specific state of mind to actually benefit and learn from them in the long run.

I am an avid user (LSD), was an abuser, I had lost 4 friends to crazy...

also, Ketamine is not a psychedelic and is bad for you in non small usages.

Ketamine is a psychedelic, just not a "classical" one that operates the same receptors as LSD/mushrooms. Or rather, whether or not it is a psychedelic is a semantic argument, and it still makes you hallucinate. MDMA is another "non-classical" psychedelic.

Me personally, and many others don't count ketamine and both MDMA as psychedelics, because there is no _mind manifestation_.

LSD, DMT, psylocibyn, salvia, mescaline, and probably more, these are psychedelics.

Not quite sure what you mean by "mind manifestation"? MDMA has significant impacts on your emotional and mental state, and also causes strong audiovisual hallucinations, disorientation and loss of self. What extra experiential effects would you ascribe to a classic psychedelic that aren't found in non-psychedelics?

Generally there's either the experiential (e.g. do you hallucinate?) definition, which regards MDMA, THC etc as psychedelics or the receptor-based definition, which excludes them.

hallucinations are different from mind manifestation which occur from using psychedelia.

you can hallucinate as bat shit crazy from alcohol, does it mean it's a psychedelic? you can "hallucinate" in deep states of meditation, does it mean you took something?

I think that the notion that MDMA is psychedelia, is something which sprang up quite recently.

when I mean mind manifestation are the visions, patterns, realization, interventions, strong sensory "signals" you are getting by taking a decent amount under the correct circumstances.

personally, I don't like to speak about this subject, "this is psy and this is not psy", to each is own, but I strongly disagree about the term.

in any case, if it does good for a person, it does not matter what it is... it's just a problem confusing the two, since these are different groups with totally different outcomes.

edit, comment:

you will never see a full blown circus with upside down clowns juggling skulls and candy going on unicycles on a short pink white stripes roller coaster showing you the finger but in the other hand are very happy you are there, when using either MDMA or Ketamine.

I call the place shpongle land, been there several times, always happy to be back.

Ketamine is a dissociative not a psychedelic in any sense. "visions" on Ketamine are more akin to sensory deprivation tanks than to LSD.
