> I'll never stop being fascinated by how radically different the experiences of cannabis users are

Nothing to be fascinated about. The experience is different primarily from the type of strain they have inhaled or ingested.

Sativa only strain - High, euphoria, very social

Indica only strain - Sleepy, lethargic, somewhat anti-social

Sativa dominant Sativa-Indica hybrid - Not so high, still little euphoric, smooth come down after few hours.

Indica dominant Indica-Sativa hybrid - Not so sleepy / lethargic, little euphoric...

And then there's the CBD dominant ones which don't get you high, and supposedly cure you of various illnesses. Not FDA approved.

I've used https://www.netlify.com to host 100s of static sites for my clients.

It integrates nicely with GitHub and is blazing fast (distributed, geo-cached CDNs).

Best of all, the team at Netlify knows what it's doing, and founder Matt is very smart and their support responds instantly to any questions, no matter how deeply techie it is or how complex.

Ask HN: Corp-2-Corp vs W2 Work in San Francisco / Bay Area

I have over 20 years experience in over 10+ languages, tools frameworks. Active on github and open source also.Trying to make a lot of $$ in next 5 years and quit the rat race.Everywhere I apply for contract jobs, the recruiter / person with job says they can only do W2 and not independent 1099 or corp 2 corp contract.I don't need benefits (have it from my partner) and W2 rates are much less...
