Getting some unplanned exercise clearing out the house of my late mother in law. Though my airways disagree (achoo), having clear goals and hauling around heavy stuff is doing wonders for my mood.

Ah good. Now I know what specs not to buy.

Depending on how old your kid is, it might or it might not improve. The frontal lobe of their brain still has a lot of development left in children; right up until they’re about 25. This may improve things.

Also, please don’t be one of those parents who discounts meds. They can really help a lot. And no, they’re not addictive (in fact, people with ADHD are more likely to forget them than to use them recreationally).

What’s helped me is a combination of physical exercise (which helps against feelings of unrest that may be bothering me) and sort of sliding into the subject, tackling the easier parts first and from there riding the dopamine wave.

But yeah, it doesn’t get any easier.

What river? Asking for a friend…

One thing about the pre-Internet times I don’t hear much about is how much more centralised our media were and how, as a result, people or ideas on the fringe of society didn’t get much attention. That includes for instance how the strange ideas about vaccines or ethnic groups now spread much easier than they did before the Internet, but also how trans* people and other marginalised groups find it much easier to find and support each other and be a united front against oppression.

In summary, I don’t thing that what has been termed “the great awokening”, nor the organised opposition against it, could have taken place before the Internet. At least not at this scale.

Sadly Microsoft didn’t specify where on the keyboard the key has to be.

In order to find out, hit the keyboard with your head; wherever your forehead touches the keyboard first is where the key is supposed to be.

I have a similar-sized roll of 0.5mm Felder Sn100Ni+ with their ultra clear flux. Love the shinyness.

Indeed, don’t skimp on solder, especially when soldering lead-free.

Yeah, I deserve that. I’m just gonna leave my typo. Thanks for the laugh!

1024 = 2¹⁰

FYFY

The tweet wasn’t easily available on nitter (it wasn’t being highlighted).

It just so happened to be the canonical source for this piece of information. And it wasn’t being run by an antisemite at the time the linked tweet was being written.

Exactly. The good kind of failure.

Hyperloop was always a project to sabotage high-speed rail. Good thing it failed.

That sounds like uncontrolled dosages of Desoxyn.

weekend = day_of_week in (“sat”, “sun”)

As a bonus this completely sidesteps the issue of what day is 0 or 1.

Those are different kinds of fine motor skills than used when writing cursive. Ideally kids should be exposed to both.

Cursive writing helps in developing fine motor skills.

I have an M1 Pro MacBook Pro and really like the fact that I can just plug in an HDMI cable without resorting to dongles. I don’t notice the extra weight. If you already know that you’re going to connect multiple monitors I’d say go for the M1 Pro.

Easy way to save on power.
