Isn’t that just a symptom of ADHD? I would say the advice still holds. Movement is just to stimulate your mind to retain focus, but in this case we don’t want stimulation, so you’ll still be able to (with will power) remain still in bed.

I find discourse difficult and confusing to use. Everything seems mixed up together, so it’s never clear what the topic is supposed to be, and scrolling is a nightmare. I actually kinda like pagination as it means I can know where a post ba

oddly, they're actually committing to higher storage usage, as they're gonna start offering one year retention as part of the base package, which used to cost $2/m extra, so in effect (from their perspective) they haven'

The reason AHK is so popular is because the ugliness that most “real” programming languages won’t tolerate is what makes it so approachable in the beginning.

I knew everything was going downhill when I saw the windows 8 back button. It looked like it’d been hastily drawn by me in MSPaint for a school assignment. Nothing was aligned, and the arrow was actually pixelated on my 720p laptop screen

Nope, I think the politicians at the top are hopelessly naive or simply too maliciously self involved to care. And are more concerned with appearances than any of the values they claim to espouse.

Can we all just agree that colleges not the US government should be on the hook for unpaid loans? I’m all for loan forgiveness if it comes out of the universities’ coffers. In fact let’s take this to the next level, automatic wage garnishin
