The way this was phrased made me briefly wonder if something could come crashing through my roof in the next hour.
Singapore got this right with everything up to capital punishment for white collar crimes.
I agree with disincentivizing white collar crime with more severe punitive measures, but if you throw capital punishment into the mix you’re just trading one ethical dilemma for another.
Nearly free speech for me is one of those services still (excellently) run by nerds.
Its no-frills, functional UI reminds me of the old internet before services and sites began coalescing into bigger, faceless, soulless monoliths. I didn’t know about this policy before today, but now I love them even more.
If you’re looking for a place to host your next project or domain, I can’t recommend them enough!
A very poignant and well-written piece, which only gets sadder as you realize the scale and extent of these systemic issues landing people in such places, and it’s only getting worse.

The article, for all of its other faults, also manages to breeze over another crucial point:
“Research shows that blue light suppresses the body’s production of melatonin, the sleep hormone. This can be helpful in the morning, when you want to wake up…”
I find this to be a much easier habit to maintain, at least during summer: as close as possible after waking up, get as much light as you can, and at a regular time if possible. Sun lamps are an expensive but effective option during darker months, but they generally aren’t covered by insurance.
The first I heard of this was when I spoke to a sleep doctor, and it has worked much better for me than melatonin ever did.
Does that help?
