The flip side to ADHD is hyperfocus on things that draw your attention. This can manifest as a 12-hour coding session without breaks or even noticing the time.

I've been on and off Vyvanse and Ritalin for a decade. Work with your doctor on side effects, I found Concerta to have the least side effects for me (long-lasting, tapers slowly at end of day, and fewer anxious feelings for me than Vyv

10 years ago I had diagnosed pericarditis from a viral infection. I had Covid in 2020 which caused a similar chest pain during elevated heart rate, it slowly resolved over a few months.

Remittances are a significant part of the El Salvadoran GDP. As a percent of GDP, remittances have been up to 21.8% of total GDP in recent years [1]. If encouraging Bitcoin reduces the 5-10% typical remittance fees charged on 20% of GDP, th

That's not true, or is at least making GPT3 out to sound more trivial than it is. I've spent hours "interviewing" people about dragon sightings in Washington D.C., or Elon Musk about a fictional startup, or similar. I&#x

Coinbase provides KYC compliance which then gives it government blessing to be a gateway between crypto and the US dollar financial system. That is the value. Otherwise, there are DApps that allow trading between cryptos and don't requ

I miss _why being out there, producing content. He reminded me of the Beagle Bros books for the Apple II, which were my first introduction to programming in 1990 or so.

I'm interested. I definitely think these kind of things are cyclic. Glassdoor is now owned by the same parent company as Indeed, so if a company is a client of Indeed's recruiting services there's definitely a conflict of int

Seems like a bed/pillow rumble pak is what you'd want for being asleep, and the common strobe light should suffice while awake.

I've literally never heard of that plan except from people shooting it down as a straw man. Mars is a good backup in that a tape drive is a good backup. A catastrophic event on Earth will likely not impact Mars as well. It's a bio

I agree with this comment, but with the addition that sleep quality is very important if you don't have it. If your sleep is pretty close to optimal already, you may not notice a slight improvement.

I would previously really push hard on exercise looking for some magic result, and I found it made my concentration worse because my body is trying to recover from the previous day's workout. It's good for stress relief though. Ju

Yes: Hydration is a little important. Sleep is very important (white noise machine, blackout curtains, melatonin when needed, regular schedule, no alcohol near bedtime on work nights.) Exercise is a little important, but too much is detrime

Seriously. After 15 years of struggling with various self help programs, an ADHD-PI diagnosis and medication fixed 90% of my problems. I feel like that movie Limitless was inspired by someone who really needed ADHD medication and finally go

The Beagle Bros "Big Tip Book for the Apple II Series" was the only programming text I had in 1989, and no internet yet nor did I know anyone who knew about programming as I was 10 years old. That was my favorite book as I though

Two reasons: leverage costs will drag the performance of the 3x to worse than 3x over time, and in big drops there's a chance that the 3x ETF may actually implode like the XIV ETN did a while back. Those work in your favor if you'

Good advice, but the IV on most puts makes them incredibly expensive right now. I prefer shorting the 3x long etfs.
