Why do we need a white list in our project?
To create a limited community which can form a clear opinion of our project and test updates. To be surrounded by people who only want to move forward!

My on-stage interviewer in NZ asked my views on their ridiculous science education policy. Spectator happened to ask me to do their Diary same week. The Times picked it up but my NZ friends are betting local media wonโt dare. Can Kiwi readers help?

On Pausing Alcohol
"Always carry a flask of whiskey in case of snakebite, and furthermore always carry a small snake." -- W. C. Fields
About six months ago, I stopped drinking alcohol. I feel much better, and Iโm mad as hell about it.
I never really drank through my 20s and 30s, but grew to really enjoy whiskey through my 40s, coincident with โMad Menโ, and roughly a thousand academic studies that proved that alcohol is actually good for you. Win/win!
I had read that the sure sign of an alcoholic is someone who drinks at night, by himself, at home, so I decided to only drink at night, by myself, at home.
I was even scurrilously quoted as saying โthe perfect day is 10 hours of caffeine followed by 4 hours of alcoholโ, which I did indeed say, and which is still indeed true.
Unfortunately, in recent years, itโs become clear that most or all โ probably all โ of the scientific studies on the benefits of alcohol are fake, the scientists unwitting or witting victims of selection effects. As Michael Crichton says, โwet streets cause rainโ, or rather wet streets donโt cause rain. It turns out that sick people often donโt drink, or subjects just lie to researchers about their consumption outright. There go the studies.
It is now pretty definitively clear that no amount of alcohol is good for you. Andrew Huberman recently summed this conclusion up on his podcast; the topic made me so enraged I never listened to the episode, but I did read the notes.
Andrew says โthe best amount of alcohol to drink is no alcoholโ โ imagine someone who both hates and loves humanity that much.
Since I stopped drinking, I feel much better. I donโt need as much sleep, but my sleep is better. Iโm more alert through the day. Iโm cogent and focused at all times. I have more energy when I exercise, and itโs easier to control my diet.
Itโs great, and I am super mad about it.
I feel like the color has drained out of my evenings[*]. Spending time with people is still fun, but now itโs hard to sit still and watch a movie or read a book and unwind at the end of a hard day. Iโm more prone to just work until bedtime. Grump grump grump.
Frankly, I donโt know what Elon is doing farting around with cars and rockets and Twitter, why doesnโt he solve THIS problem[**].
And one of these days, I am going to get deeply, seriously, hammered.
But not today!
[*] A lot of people I know are substituting cannabis or hallucinogens for alcohol. Iโm not, I wonโt touch any of those things โ a topic for another time.
[**] Iโve been trying all the alcohol free whiskeys, wine, and beer. So far, no luck on the whiskeys. For wine, Sovi is pretty good. For beer, there are quite a few good choices; Iโve become partial to Hopwtr, which is zero calorie hop-flavored sparkling water. Iโm still not drinking either at breakfast, though I am tempted.

The growth of e-commerce globally has freed people from the confines of physical stores. Customers now have access to stores miles away and marketplaces with multiple brands. If online merchants fail to keep up with trends, they risk failure. #skaflic
