for paradox fans I highly recommend the author's series analyzing EU4's perspective of history[1]. the role of the player is peculiar in EU4 (and Victoria I believe) in that you play as the state itself, unlike Crusdar Kings where you play as an individual holding political power within a state. Brett discusses the narrative of history that this perspective presents.
from what i can tell, the only things here not supported by CL's LOOP is "continue", and there being named exit points with parameters, though I fail to see the usefulness of that when you could just use return.
I'm guessing you use a corporate account and ship international regularly. those discounts can really rack up. try creating a shipment without the account, I doubt its lower than 80. source: I work at a fedex office and process international shipments every day.
My biggest problem with most of these libraries is the complete lack of care for efficiency, and some packages use more of these functions than builtins. eg. -map is identical to mapcar (a C primitive), but instead of defining it as a defalias, its defined as a defun that just calls mapcar on its args. Function calls, especially of bytecode, are very slow, so now instead of just a single primitive funcall, there's a second bytecode funcall that does nothing. this is done in a lot of places in dash and especially in s.el. plus, while the compiler will warn when mapcar is called for effect and advise using mapc, it doesn't know about -map, and ive seen it called for effect a lot.
> Many people experience some of the side effects of ADHD may be a true statement.
I think that's exactly what they meant, since they put it in quotes and then go on to say that ADHD proper is when those complications are debilitating.
Also try Lispy (only for lisps). Works just like SP and Paredit except most commands require a single unmodified key press, but can only be used when point precedes or follows a delimiter or text is selected. Feels like magic.
Note that these are still stimulants tho. Vyvanse is unique in that its a slightly modified dextroamphetamine (adderall) molecule that gradually gets metabolized by the liver into dextroamphetamine, sort of a "natural" extended release and has a much smoother (side) effect curve. Concerts and XR are just cleverly designed pills that release two doses of plain methylphenidate/amphetamine spaced out, so there's two distinct peaks with a small lull between.
Deliriants are fascinating, and the experience sounds absolutely nightmarish. The most interesting thing to me is how the most common feature of every trip of some of the drugs (I think Datura and dph) is repeatedly thinking you're smoking a cigarette, accidentally dropping it then realizing there was no cigarette. And it happens to people who've never smoked.
Because dysfunctional thought when alone cannot be challenged, and becomes self reinforcing. A therapist helps a patient examine the ways in which their thinking is detrimental to their wellbeing.
Actually I saw a ddg ad on TV. I started rolling my eyes thinking it was a Google ad lying about privacy but was pleasantly surprised by the duck logo.
