Paragone

I'm interested in seeing an answer to this, too.

For terpenes, please try Ajwain seeds. or pine-needles.

I prefer pine-needles: the ajwain seeds are just too strong.

Oh, maybe search PubMed for the specific plants you're considering?

That might provide some medical research papers..

I'm of a kind of Vajrayana ( Tibetan AwakeSoulism/Buddhism ) which apparently died-out centuries ago.

( I've earned Soul/CellOfGod/Continuum memories from previous lives, in meditation: only 1 of those previous incarnations was human, the rest were mostly insects, like a hornet/bee/wasp probably in central Africa who saw a few humans )

it's abstract.

All material-forms, all rituals, etc, are misleading, fundamentally.

OceanOfAllAwakeSouls/Brahman/G-D/EmitterOfUnconsciousSouls hasn't any form.

The old testament had something on that: "commandment that no-one ever mistake any form for G-D".

Carlos Castaneda's guru "Juan Matus" spoke of the real Universe being abstract.

Basically, it's Science/Engineering of one's Continuum's future-condition.

Want to be crushed under suffering more? Then crush others under suffering, & wait for the action->reaction, of the meanings emitted by one's continuum eventually are forced back into one's continuum.

Want to be liberated from reincarnation/Universe's-recycling & all the perpetual cycle-of-birth-life-sickness-injury-death-bardo...birth..?

THEN all one has to do, is earn shedding SurfaceMind/ego duality ( which Castaneda's tradition called "Crossing Over" & Buddhism calls realizing of Zen: same thing: ego-annihilation ), so only the 2 more-fundamental minds still are in-play,

then earn the dissolution of one's LifeMind, which is our unconscious & our dreaming-mind, but it can be made fully conscious & capable..

Earning the dissolution of that leaves only the Soul/Continuum/3rdAttention ( as Castaneda's tradition called it ).

Once that's done, then one only has to purify it enough so that not-only is it free from Universe's containment/perpetual-recycling, but it eventually gets from inside Universe to outside ( which is Enlightenment: dissolution into OceanOfAllAwakeSouls/GreatSpirit/Brahman/G-D/etc )

There are 3 kinds of mind which obliterator-force can't understand, from our perspective:

• Wisdom-seeing-through-phenomena's-lack-of-inherent-nature
• Faithing ( surrendering-to, relying-on, & being gratitude-for, LivingSpirit, one's BuddhaNature, or other LivingInfinity/SoulGuru )
• Bodhichitta ( immeasurable compassion for all sentiences, incapable of insecurity. It's what Yehoshua "Jesus" benJoseph meant when he said "be born in spirit", as NOTHING else comes close to that sentience. I experienced it only for 1-1.5seconds, some years ago )

Anyways, it's all self-evolution, eradication-of-the-ego/self, sublimation-from-ignorant-matter-to-pure-spirit, & that kind of thing..

Just providing this for a bit of perspective: most assumption-rivers/religions don't hold that there is some mathematical-form/judo required for a someone to get from their current-condition to their desired improved-condition, but that's essentially how mine works.

Current condition, desired condition, what is the geometry-of-intent which produces the alteration-of-one's-unconscious-mind that one wants..

He understands.

So, East Germany, basically, with tech.

I'm suggesting you invest in reading a book on https://www.LeanPub.com called "Algebra-Driven Design".

the reason I'm suggesting it is that the complex-requirements you're being persecuted-by, are exactly the sort of thing that that book can help with.

( I'm presuming you code )

By creating the domain's algebra, & using meta-programming, you can prevent whole categories of bugs.

I only got part-way into the book ( I'm braindamaged, & have beenfailing to learn programming since the 1980's, when I lost 1/10th of my brain-volume ), but being able to create an APi with ZERO bugs in it, is part of what I'd seen in that book.

I'm a huge believer in keeping requirements divided into dimensions, & keeping those dimensions orthogonal, because once you fail in doing that, you're fscking doomed.

Isn't BeeHaw a virtual 3rd-Place??

To the best of my knowledge, back-propagation IS learning, whether it's happening in a neural-net on a chip, or whether we're doing it, through feedback, & altering our understanding ( so both hard-logic & our wetware use the method for learning, though we use a rather sloppy implimentation of it. )

& altering the relative-significances of concepts IS learning.

( I'm not commenting on whether the new-relation-between-those-concepts is wrong or right, only on the mechanism )

so, I can't understand your position.

Please don't deem my comment worthy of answering: I'm only putting this here for the record, is all.

Everybody can downvote my comment into oblivion, & everything in the world'll still be fine.

You don't have to do ANYthing in order to have copyright on your images.

That is standard throughout the Berne convention & has been for decades.

Registering makes court-cases easier to win, but having copyright on one's renditions isn't in any way requiring that one have registered anything with anybody.

Wasn't there a competitor named Mattermost?

a FLOSS competitor?

Consider trying lots of washing-soda in your water-based cleaner: if it's alkali enough, rust shouldn't be happening..

Isn't Signal an option??

IF they've the horsepower to run it, I gather there is a reversal of Whisper, called WhisperSpeech, or something like that, which uses an LLM to convert text to speech.
