What do we care more about? The present? The current generation? Or future generations? Our children, grandchildren, great grandchildren? The perpetuation of human civilization? The perpetuation of human civilization with a set of values that that supports the growth and happiness of all?
That's the first question, right? Alignment. Sustainable alignment.
From there, it's all about sustaining those shared values, and minimizing risk. Build bonds: keep your friends close and your enemies closer. Or establish trust. It works out better in the long run; people don't usually Like to stab each other in the back Trampling starts cycles of revenge, and that's no fun for anyone involved either Exploitation prioritizes short term gain and screws you in the long run, more often than not.
Being successful from winning the lottery, versus being successful from working hard enough such that you qualify for a lottery with significantly better odds.
Sure luck is Involved, the outcome is determined by luck, but work is putting a hand on the scales. And in that sense, your prior comment of it being 100% luck is exaggerated
I'm not saying that AI now does this, nor that billionaires all have this experience either. It's seems like billionaires only get the upsides of this kind of this behavior without enough of the pushback. Or any of it. Which might be your point.
But too many people just don't get anything like this. Helpful critical feedback or positive encouragement and support from relatively knowledgeable sources is an unfortunately scarce resource.
Your comment also seems to imply that this treatment involves consuming ibogaine habitually or regularly
The protocol for ibogaine treatment, according to the article and the experiments being done, do not have this requirement.
Like other treatments involving psychedelics and hallucinogens, the protocol here is that a one-off treatment, a single dose, results in meaningful improvements in both addictive behaviors and PTSD symptoms a month later and potentially longer
This is not the same as something like methadone or naltrexone, which _are_ what you describe: replacing a more harmful opiate with a less harmful one.
[Unison](https://www.unison-lang.org/docs/the-big-idea/) content addresses every definition. Kinda interesting.
A [Code Property Graph](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_property_graph) takes a codebase and turns it into three graph representations: it's AST, a Control Flow Graph, and Program Dependence Graphs. These graphs are overlaid and shoved into a single property graph. It's a structure mainly used by some static analysis tools like [Joern](https://joern.io/)

This has been a topic of a lot of interest and research for me. I've been experimenting with figuring out a system inspired by these ideas, among others, to apply the same idea (shoving multiple graph representations together) to a broader set of information
Surface feels a bit fairer in that sense. Or at least, easier to measure.
The moop map, and community holding itself accountable, seems to be a decently functioning system.
Not to mention the administrative overhead, at the org level and at the camp level.
Frankly being a camp of 100+ people, not just taking dues but also handling this Deposit, and distributing the cost fairly?
Running a camp is enough of a pain in the ass without adding on this kind of thing.
Monetary incentive systems like what you're suggesting are just a way of enforcing culture. If culture spreads organically, why bother with the overhead of bringing money into the picture?
Like if people can put in this much time and effort in a remote desert environment to meet regulatory requirements, and document their efforts so thoroughly, why can't corpos?
2023 was a weird one, because of the heavy rain and so many people not being used to it.
But it also seriously churned the Playa, revealing what was hidden for a whiiile
Yes this may mean that there are pages for common words like "and"
Yes this may mean that there's a page for letters like "x"
Filtering what ends up becoming a hyperlink becomes a problem that I think can be solved with regex/whitelisting
I think articles should have a backlinks drop down. Might make consistency easier As well as generally just plain text search to pull relevant articles or context when generating a new article.
I feel like a permission list is kind of a superset of a block list and an exclude list. Or they're all different perspectives/solutions to the same kind of problem, that a permission list is the more generalizable solution for.
Or it's a way of framing the problem that doesn't embed the "exclusion" idea in the naming.
And it kinda bridges over to the idea of Access Control Lists a bit better?
Contrasted against using words where the Primary definition is the one that matters.
Imagine an alien culture encountering the word. Blacklist versus Denylist. The latter requires a lot less context to understand the meaning, because "Deny" has a single pretty consistent definition.
I may have been a bit too pithy/I sufficiently clear with that last statement I made.
I meant it in the sense that understanding the word relies on a lot of contextual/colloquial/cultural understanding that's typically gained via time and exposure. At least, more of it than allow/deny requires.
Imagine an alien culture encountering blacklist vs Denylist. The latter requires a lot less context to translate, because Deny is used a lot more consistently.
My argument is mainly one about _clarity_, not hurt feelings.
Sure blacklist was already an English word, but it's not necessarily _common_, and the distinction between blacklist and whitelist is kinda arbitrary. If you'd like to explain Why the word means what it does I'd love to hear it
Allowlist and denylist are clearer, in that the meaning is in more clear alignment with the words it's made up of.
The old terms just make more sense to those who are old enough to be used to it.
