  Dirk Meulenbelt addressed criticism #4137.

Drugs are a net negative for society.

#4137​·​Benjamin DaviesOP, about 2 months ago

Drugs are too broad of a category. Is widespread cocaine use the same as occasional magic mushrooms? The latter is suggested to have neuro-protective benefits.

  Dirk Meulenbelt addressed criticism #4131.

Getting someone hooked on an addictive substance to get repeat business is predatory. It’s not an honest way to do business. Even if consuming drugs was legal, maybe the selling of drugs should still be illegal.

Subjectively applies to every good product that makes its purchasers want to buy more of it. Like good food, video games, comfortable chairs.

Not prohibited by law.

To produce, purchase, sell, or to use?

  Dirk Meulenbelt addressed criticism #4060.

If they violate rights they should be punished by the law, that applies regardless of if they take drugs or not.

#4060​·​Benjamin DaviesOP, about 2 months ago

If the drug + violation becomes a pattern, it's rational to outlaw it. (Assuming the outlawing works.)

E.g. alcohol is prohibited for drivers, even for drivers who are great drunk drivers.

  Dirk Meulenbelt addressed criticism #4337.

Communities could exclude drug users.

In today's society they only have this ability to a limited degree, and would still have to deal with the drug users in public.

  Dirk Meulenbelt addressed criticism #4336.

Violating the rights of other people depends on whatever their rights are. If we replace it with "desires", or use a libertarian way of saying "aggress on", then it's really just up to the people. I'd rather not live around drug users (depending on the drug), even if none of them physically assault me. I.e. "violation" is subjective, and ultimately decided by the polity that creates the laws.

  Dirk Meulenbelt criticized idea #4058.

All drugs should be legal because people have a right to do what they want, as long as it isn’t violating the rights of others.

Does it exist?

The discussion starts with idea #4335.

Knowledge can exist outside any mind. A book contains knowledge whether or not anyone reads it.

When an empty block is passed to render, it results in an empty tag '<>'

  Dennis Hackethal posted idea #4332.

Some Reagent-like way to make things reactive using proc as first element? And then the server keeps track of which procs have been rendered, which items have changed, and re-renders that part of the template in a turbo stream?

  Dennis Hackethal posted criticism #4330.

Redirects result in two additional requests, the first of which is a turbo-stream request that renders nothing, thus (presumably) prompting the browser to make another request for the same resource.

Is there a way to teach user-built helpers how to process Hiccdown? Or maybe intercepting capture already took care of this?
