I spent way too long looking for the price + availability. They're sold out and got up to around $1200 ea. This thread sold me on experiencing 100% totality so I'm bummed.

7a-7p is a very long window to get slack notifications. I'd tell an eng to cut it to 9a-430pm or something if I heard they did that (assuming a usual 8-5 / 9-5ish). I never acknowledge any slack message before 9am my time. I did

I definitely have my "ok I need no sound to focus" moments which is probably a good 20-40% of my day. I sit in quiet a lot so I'm not distracted like you mentioned. It made working in an open office awful for me because I HAD

I go through really weird phases with music. Music is a huge part of my life, sometimes I play piano, guitar, produce. There's points I'll realize I've gone 6mo+ without opening spotify except for when I'm driving. Just

I guess this is an adhd "superpower" of mine. I leave youtube on 24/7 and pay almost no attention to it. A big reason why I can ignore it though, when it's on 24/7.. mine plays the exact same documentaries, almost

If I made $180k and didn't have 20% and they required 20% I wouldn't be able to buy a house. That's what I'm saying. There are also people like me, a LOT of us, who buy house we can "afford" (technically speaki

I got a $365k mortgage with 3% down at 3.2% when I made $180k and I had absolutely zero problem paying it. If I'd done your stupid "wait till you have 20% deposit" thing that some 75year old told you they did 40 years ago to

I love the world that you live in in which this is the only time our medication has been out of stock, rescheduled, etc. I'm sure you're very well established with a medication I've taken for over 30 years. If I'm going

If you haven't traveled/lived in many major cities since covid, they are all the exact same now. None of the police are working. I'm in Denver now, previously Austin in 2019, Dallas 2020, Denver 2020+, and Denver banned quali

I went through this recently trying to heavily use yaml anchoring to determine various k/v's from a .yml config file, and yeah, it was awful. But I think the biggest problem for me was every single yaml library I tried in various

It's absolutely ridiculous to me how much people coming into hn/reddit and going "wow I read these symptoms, I think I must be adhd!" blew up around 2020. For those of us who have been ADHD our entire lives and have be

I will never, ever keep a car I care about outside anywhere near the city. I know everyone doesn't have the funds for that, but I'm sorry, we all know how rampant car thefts have gotten since before those 3 Q50s in this video were

You're by no means incorrect but the strategy you're speaking of here to determine where warez is going is .. about 25+ years behind and even then network engineers used it as kind of a "look, they're not netengs, they&#

It was also when CDs were $19.99-25 which I distinctly remember because I was 10 in 1995 when I bought my first CDs (smash, it was written, dookie) and I could rarely afford to buy them. And then artists still weren't getting paid but

You're 100% right, I use it daily like I said and I really have NO idea what all the other options are. I tested a plugin or two and it caused problems with something so I disabled it. I need to dig more into how much more I can do.

Ha, I didn't actually test it and I was curious if the answer would deviate at all from reality. Thanks for doing the math. Thankfully I know what bad rust looks like, but I'll totally get suckered for the wrong math.

This is such a strange take to me. I use chatgpt almost daily. I use it like I used to use google in a lot of situations. Now GOOGLE frustrates me to use as a search engine. "How many hours ago was june 1st 1972" and you get links

This is hilarious. Ok, tell me your problem $name. "I'm sad." Do you enjoy being sad? "No" Are you sure? "Yes" That should solve your problem. Lets move on to discuss about some other things. Also wow that
