Has anyone read Infinite Jest?

The whole book feels like Chekhovs gun but it is fun to read!

(I haven't finished it)

No idea, but he does for some reason promote ZCash instead of Monero, and won't even speak of Monero, which is certainly odd.

This one has connected with me recently on that more tribal level!

I was just thinking about this I think you're right. Such small differences in phrasing can have a big difference.

I think a great response would be "That sucks, do you THINK if you spoke to them something would change?" Rather than "have you tried to speak to them?"

The first is a question, that will prompt them to think and then maybe act. The second is a question that is a little accusatory (you should have already spoken to them about it)

Conversation is hard!

I wonder if the DOJ will try to indict the man behind Signal for similar reasons.

I really don't think these types of restrictions will succeed in western countries when you have people like Elon Musk and Jack Dorsey heavily involved.

If crypto only had the underground attention it had 5 years ago, maybe.

I have to agree it does feel more like a forum. I wonder how HN achieves this.

Those three things are not hard to do or unenjoyable.

You feel better for doing all those things and want to keep doing them as a result usually. I love to lift heavy weights and sleep. Eating healthy not so much but life isn't all about having what you want all the time.

I do differ with the no caffeine past noon though. I don't have too much trouble with caffeine and falling asleep though.

Apart from sleeping well, fitness & diet are tough at first but once you get in the flow they're easy and actually become a part of what you love to do. Just got to find the right workout for you.
