mircea_popescu: that way you don'
t have the problem of snotty 5yo disrupting other people's restaurant meal. because in his reptillian 5yo brain, the risk that the whole stampede of adults beats the shit out of him if he starts screaming is quite vivid.

mircea_popescu: antonosika the idea here is that the constant admin costs aren'

t think you understand how this works. things need a source to exist.
