Injecting chemicals just so you can have sweet things power your muscle performance without buildup of acetone doesn’t seem insane to you?

Sugar is a chemical, you dumb fuck.

The whole comment would fit into literally any time period.

Oh, German automakers are way ahead of the curve in this regard.

The market can stay irrational far longer than you can stay solvent.

Right. Discredit the whole notion of presidential pardons!

How exactly does discussion of failures of a society help those who struggle right here right now?

When you see a burning building, it’s not a good time to start a discussion on merits of various building materials. Here’s a bucket, start hauling.

Oh the fucking irony!

Did you lose track of the written words after the first question mark perchance?

Not voting is a vote for the winner by default. I highly doubt that every single person that didn’t vote did so due to being unable to.

That’s everyone’s brains. Emotional (and physical) intensity is the strongest reinforcement signal to any learning.

What is wild is lack of factors commonly assumed to be normal.

E.g. it’s fairly normal to have a timeline of your life available for recall at the moments notice. I, on the other hand, sometimes randomly remember a year I totally forgot I lived through and just sit there overwhelmed with no clue how to deal with the revelation.

ADHD is also a designation for a lifelong set of conditions that manifest early in life.

You can end up developing ADHD-like symptoms later in life, but the „late bloom” itself is a good reason to seek and treat underlying conditions.

And to correct a misconception, moving leg is a self stimulation thing. It’s not a hyperactivity manifestation, but a self-grounding action. On its own it’s entirely neurotypical.

„Attention deficit and hyperactivity” designation sits somewhere in the ballpark of „diabetes means your pee is sweet”. Technically correct, easily observable, but ultimately describes symptoms, not the causes underlying them.

No.

And the music is amazing.

If you tar the contents of the two, you’d be unable to attribute the archives to any specific one.

Every bit of code a maintainer accepts becomes their responsibility to maintain. Considering that half the time „improvements” don’t even have tests to help maintaining them, feel free to maintain your own fork.

The wave of „just accept it” is belittling and harmful. It actively segregates, it denies access to professional help, it leaves people who could easily be self sufficient with no tools for self sufficiency.

And most importantly, the way brains work, for something to be recognized it needs a (preferably named) category. Orange was bright brown before we decided that it’s a separate thing.

„How do you know” is such a powerful question.

I especially like the Electrolux one. It’s simple, memorable, and once you see a butt and bikini, you can’t unsee it.

Thanks, I hate it!

I’ve been hoping for it to become widely available since first reading about it somewhere south of 2010. But I guess it would need to become easily manufacturable in local pharmacies for procedure to become widespread.

Agile is ADHD coping mechanisms application to groups. Small steps, frequent measurements, body doubling, regular reminders about the actual goal, etc.

It wasn’t even a project management tooling originally, but a way to ensure bidirectional information flow and continuous course correction. When goals start deceptively simple and get adjusted as data emerges and feedback gets collected, you can either sit in paralysis or start checking off tasks you know about. Applies to cleaning and developing a payment system alike.

One of us! One of us!
