I dont have a general doctor and last time I tried to get help I got profiled as a drug seeker. Its really turned me off trying to get help but maybe I should try again

Coffee did not help me. A few years ago i was averaging 2 liters of coffee per day it was a real problem. I don’t drink coffee anymore.

This is me. Help how do i do stuff?

The images are not actually the captcha. They’ve used other methods and tools to verify your authenticity, then they force you to help train their image recognition AI under the guise of it being the actual captcha. Its Distributed Forced Labor, and Google has been using captchas to do this for decades. Remeber the picture-of-two-words captcha? One word was always squiggly and the other was not. The squiggly word was the real captcha, the other word was from a scanned book and you were helping to train their OCR algorithms.

100% it is antiquated technology.

Wristwatches are just jewelry at this point tbh. They’ve been rendered completely redundant by cell phones. The only people under 60 who wear them are doing so as a fashion statement.

I’m sure a lot of wristwatch stans will downvote me but I don’t care I’m still right

I thought having grown up with ADD and having developed my own coping mechanisms and strategies would help me raise an ADD child. Holy shit it is so hard.

Ive noticed that low-brain work is a lot easier to get myself to do. Its like my brain is lazy but my body isnt. Last spring I dug up 125 sqft of grass, lined it with decorative bricks, spread several 100lbs of topsoil, and sowed wildflowers. And before that I busted up 30 feet of sidewalk with a sledghammer and spread 3 cubic yards of fill dirt. All required basically zero brainpower. But godforbid i have to concentrate for 2 hours to diagnose and fix a bug at work! If I could get paid a software dev salary to shovel dirt for 8 hours a day I would in a heartbeat.

Uber driving sounds nice tbh. Phone tells you where to go and what to do. No brain needed.

I disagree. The teabag is a welcome replacement to having to have yet another unitasker in the kitchen.

No, that complicates things way too much. Simplicity in design is beauty. A real engineer would recognize the tag on the string not only as a point a confusion, but also a superfluous feature. Simply remove it. The end user will have to use a spoon supplied by themselves to remove the teabag, but thats their problem. At least there is actually tea in the cup at that point.

Shhhh if you say it like that people’s heads will explode

Literally all I want is for my government to manage capitalism instead of capitalism managing my government.

I am certain that Elon will try to co-opt Trump’s cult following and be his political successor when Trump finally kicks the bucket, and that legitimately terrifies me. Elon will run for pres in the next 20 years I’d bet on it.

Here let me try to solve all of it’s issues:

1. Get rid of the vacuum idea to reduce complexity and points of failure.

2. Move track above ground to reduce manufacture/maintenance costs.

3. Make the “pods” longer and chain multiple pods together to increase efficiency.

Wait a minute… 🤔 🚉

Elon has all but admitted that the hyperloop was just a distraction to derail California’s public rail plans, and now that that ship has sailed he doesnt give a shit about hyperloop anymore. The Hyperloop concept is literally just a tool that Elon uses to prevent development of public transport in California so that people will buy more teslas instead.

All metrics are terrible when used for anything other than objective analysis

Ive heard of stories where people would have an imposed test coverage percentage requirement… and they would just have a single dummy method that printed “.” to the console thousands of times. They then have a single test for that one method, and whenever their codebase grows to big, they add more lines to it so that the dummy method has enough lines to meet the test coverage requirement.

One time when I was contracting and my company was in the middle of a merger I had to do triple time keeping; client, old company, new company, all on different systems, two of which were ancient hr software from the 90s for some reason still in use 5 years ago. Its at that point I just started blanket logging 6 hours per day on whatever project I could think of at the moment.

Thats a lot of info, which is always nice! The one time in tried to get help in my adult life i was profiled as a drug seeker and they prescribed me Strattera which I didn’t even bother getting. Im honestly just considering getting adderal through less legal means i feel like it would be easier than dealing with the health"care" industry. I also don’t like the idea of being dependent on medications, and I’m not really susceptible to addiction.

Is it ok to just take it as needed a couple times a week? Sometimes I just cant manage my ADD at work and I get behind then stuff starts piling up and then I get anxious and depressed which just makes it worse. Working from home has been hell on my work productivity I miss the office where I could just be in the zone (literally).

Im unmedicated and struggling, just curious what meds are you taking?

Wow guys, get a load of this cissy over here!

(Jk me too lol)
