I have the opposite problem. I often forget what the last thing I copied was, or whether I copied it, and have to go back multiple times to get the copy + paste achieved. A clipboa…

This. My very first thought upon reading this article was "this author does not have ADHD." I've achieved one of my most productive setups ever by keeping more browser tabs open, a…

It could be, but the Wikipedia article notes that she may have also suffered a birth injury from hypoxia. Rosemary's story is so tragic and heartbreaking. Her life was filled with …

Since tech has largely stopped hiring younger people, sounds like a problem.

ChatGPT has been shown to spend much more time validating people's poor ideas than it does refuting them, even in cases where specific guardrails have supposedly been implemented, …

Human cloning, nuclear bombs (other than for sabre rattling)... to name a couple.

Respectfully, I think you're missing the point that this is a societal rather than an individual concern. What will the average person's response to AI be? Probably to not recogniz…

Why email clients have started hiding/not providing access to headers is beyond me. It seems like an anti-pattern. There have been many times recently where I've wanted to check th…

Mine walked to school (< 10 minute walk) at about second grade. Running errands at about fourth.

Your concerns are extremely valid, but it is not _that_ bad in many places in America. I relocated my family specifically so that my kids could have a walkable community to live in…

> How long did it take you to get to this point? And how do you deal/ identify/ know you are “done”? It took me around three to four years after starting medication to get to this …

There was a point in time (circa 2019-2020) when the madness got so severe that every new feature ended up as a microservice backed by a DB with a single table (plus a couple table…

Pretty sure I saw someone say this in the past, but microservices might as well have been a psyop pushed out by larger, successful startups onto smaller, earlier-stage companies an…

And when it's your technical leadership leveraging buzzword-driven development to rise to the top, you're screwed.

This is going to go pretty OT from the original post. The handful of times in my ~20 year career that I've gotten a shortened interview process because of connections, the organiza…

Hibernating? Touch Bear. You'll never use social media again.

I was thinking the same. Grass is hard to come by in my neck of the woods right now. Maybe "touch bark?"

It doesn’t work because I wasn’t making shit up, and the commenter above made no statement of fact. Troll.

> It’s the same with firing people and hiring them back. Performance metrics are unreliable, but firing and then hiring back who you miss isn’t. It shows you who is really critical…
