Thanks for that I was mistaken about how the vouch process worked. I thought vouching could work for flagged as well since fagged can lead to removal.

Yea, I have re-read things for goals as well. I also re-read things for the mental approach it may instill for a period of time while and after reading it, to enjoy it (like you said), or to see how the perspective fits to my new mental models a few years later. Three fiction books I constantly go back to at different times are Brave New World, The Alchemist, and Prey.

I'm curious what books others go back to over time.

I would love to see dang weigh in here just out of curiosity AND see how many people or if people are using the vouch mechanism if they can. Because this post doesn't have an insignificant upvote count and has actual conversation happening in the comments.

It makes sense people are going to LLMs for this but part of the problem is that a therapist isn't just someone for you to talk to. A huge part of their job is the psychoeducation, support and connection to a human, and the responsibility of the relationship. A good therapist isn't someone who will just sit with you through an anxiety attack, they work to build up your skills to minimize the frequency and improve your individual approach to handling it.

I'm not really sure if this is what you are getting at but it is using physical properties associated with QM to create the random numbers. Not just a mathematical model.

"This is the first random number generator service to use quantum nonlocality as a source of its numbers, and the most transparent source of random numbers to date."

Something that is nice with MoS2 and the others are transition metal dichalcogenides and have some beneficial physical properties like a natural electronic bandgap, unlike silicon.
