Happy Gandi customer here. Price is fair, good docs for a smaller provider and friendly service.


Stories like these and the bobby droptables xkcd are the reason I ended up with this plate, https://i.imgur.com/O7KEFrn.jpg It gets a lot of compliments and attention even if most people don't know what "null" is


Steroids generally prescribed for disease (corticosteroids) are not the same as Anabolic steroids. Same class/grouping but different molecular structure and it's worth making the distinction when talking about the legality of them


Testosterone is used to treat hypogonadism and probably other conditions, so I'm not sure what your point is.


I just thought in the legality discussion its worth making sure people are talking about the same class of steroids as they are already treated and classified differently under the law.

Anabolic steroids are a Class C drug in the UK so in general are illegal to possess and distribute unless prescribed.

  Steroids are not legal lol 
  They are legal medicine
So both these statements are true and false depending on which class of steroid you are talking about or if you are talking about the group as a whole. So to have a productive discussion on the legality you need to be specific about which class and not group them together.

Anabolic steroids are illegal in the US and UK (unless otherwise prescribed) whilst most of the other classes in the UK at least are not illegal to possess or even distribute


> Anabolic steroids are a Class C drug in the UK so in general are illegal to possess and distribute unless prescribed.

So they are legal - only access is controlled (prescription from doctor).

Alcohol and cigarettes are legal - only access is controlled (age).

Violence is legal - only access is controlled (police).

Tortures are not legal - no one has access to do that.

Capital punishment is not legal (in some countries) - no one has access to do that.


Exactly. Testosterone is just a medicine and it's even prescribed to old ladies if their condition need that (I know one such case). Testosterone gives a lot of power when your body is weak after some other treatment. As a side effect (or maybe desired when due to disease you're losing your muscles) is getting more muscles and energy.


Stellar is a postgres database under the hood and its just the stellar concensus protocol (SCP) that determins which queries/transaction to apply to your database in tandem with all the other nodes


They support SQLite as well :)


Exactly! That's the best part. :)

As to how they achieve it Amber has a good blog post over at http://amberonrails.com/move-fast-dont-break-your-api/ but it means it really is integrate once, and never touch it again :)
