Apparently Amazon puts the same generic item barcode on all of the items
This really doesn't make sense.All extra processes in logistics need to increase accountability and not reduce it.And simply adding a UUID to a QR is hardly an expensive task.This outcome is pretty much their intention.
A lot of my work has been making programs to help prove custom communication protocols, before they are used.
So I am making:
A simulator for some device that sends data, like a sensor of some physical phenomenon.
The data would either be decided by the user or from logs of a real device. It could be some GUI that lets the user vary values on the fly
A receiver of said data in the given protocol. This would then decode and display the data, which can then be tallied with original input data.
These were essentially only made to show that the protocol works and then used to test actual equipment which would be fabricated by some other company and as per the contract, the devices would need to be able to work with the simulators.
So once the actual devices are ready and deployed, little programs have done their job and are no longer required.They do end up being shown to future junior devs though, as examples to learn from.
Repeated use of the same drug will bring marginal gains.Companies will evolve to create lower cost (lower impact) figureheads.
Cruelty works best when it is used all at once.Operant conditioning, as stated by EldritchFeminity above, is better applied in a case where you have higher levels of control over the subject's environment.
If you do want to continue doing so slowly, then you need to accompany this with other operations...like using the shock period to gather opinions into a voice gives a clear-ish indication to what behaviour caused the event and what change in behaviour would prevent further repetition.One might think that it is something very obvious and everyone knows the difference between what they are doing vs what they should be doing, but sometimes just saying it out loud makes a big difference.
This is one methodology where an authority would excel at. And this particular methodology would horribly fail with a non-authority.But any authority needs to be trustworthy, which requires consistency. And considering how all pre-established authorities are collectively deciding to fall towards inconsistency, I see authorities failing and hence, the methods that work with authority.
It would definitely be milder and slower.Safe? Nothing is.
If you want to fuck with your brain, then doesn't matter whether you choose poppy seeds or IV its refined chemical. You will still fuck your brain.And coffee is pretty much an addiction.
The difference is that with the former, you would at least know what is happening to you before you turn yourself into an invalid.And for those who said they didn't know what was happening... No. Your body gave you the signs and you decided to ignore them.
Allopathic drugs are measured in mg and some even in µg, while you will see ayurvedic stuff being talked about in grams or tens of grams, simply because they are less refined.
While marijuana and nightshade (and coffee) would be herbal "medicine" substitute for MDMA, DMT, nicotine, cocaine etc,the others you mentioned would be a substitute for Chlorpheniramine Maleate, phenylpropanolamine and the likes.
So if a herbal medicine doctor is prescribing you marijuana for cough and cold, you can perhaps consider it being a quack. Same for someone prescribing SSRIs to a functioning adult that works 40 hours a week, on their first visit.
Vaccines are not medicine. They are a more refined form of older (much dirtier and dangerous) practices of sharing sick people's blood to create group immunity. I'm pretty thankful of not having to do the latter.
No, herbs are far from factory produced, chemically engineered medicine.
Most usages of herbs are defined in a way that it acts much closer to cooking. Also most of the herbs used in everyday cooking have medicinal and detoxifying properties, which is 1 of the ways food recipes have developed the way they do.
Herbal medicine is much milder than the extremely refined medicine produced using modern methods
Hence, they are much slower to act and you need to be using them much earlier than what you can manage with modern ones
Hence, there is much less overdose related problems
Most herbal medicine tend to have multiple effects. This is in contrast with modern medicine, where extra effects tend to be mostly undesirable and detrimental
Hence, herbal medicine is a better choice for regular, low intensity problems, like the flu and what-not, rather than popping Paracetamol every time your temp goes 1℉ over the baseline.
Herbal medicine works along with nutrition. This means, it is much harder to develop a tolerance to it in a way that would make it harder for it to work in the future.
What did you just say?
