I’ve already read so many sci-fi novels where the part of the plot was that human communication infrastructure became unusable due to AI shenanigans… not here to read another one, thank you very much.

What’s even more shocking to me: one can “3D-print” downloaded genome, too! What a time to be alive.

Interesting… did you boil the water with you inside of it?

Can’t we use LLMs as models to study delusional patterns? Like, try things that are morally questionable to try on a delusional patient. For instance, LLM could come up with a personalized argument that would convince someone to take their

Ah! So, that’s why brew no longer updates yt-dlp on my iMac from 2017 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Like I always say to my friends & family who are complaining about Duolingo not really teaching anything: it beats doomscrolling, what else do you want?

Very cool! The repo is a reference for minimalism. Also, TIL about ifeq in Makefile. So, many thanks!

I dispute that. Introvert/extrovert distinction is outdated and pseudoscientific. The new definition (watered down) is that some people seek stronger stimuli while others avoid stronger stimuli. Autism is an extreme example of the late

Neal Stephenson just dropped Polostan, I’m deeply into it right now :) Regarding scrolling, well, it does serve a certain purpose, too. Our brains evolved to be in the standby mode as much as possible, and without some serious gene splicing

Thank you! I’m glad this metaphor works. As for me, practice did bring many improvements, too. I did stop aiming for “becoming a natural”, however. Good enough, is, well, good enough. I’m always trying to improve, of course! Yet, at least f

I understand your point better now, thanks for elaborating! I do relate to the experience of stopping using my diagnosis as an excuse for pushing people away. My life is so much better now. Yet, for me, a pair programming session (for insta

Heyyy, take it easy :) Would you call it “bad behavior” when a mute person refuses to speak? Well, A(u)DHD kind of makes one deaf, mute and blind to the standard communication style. That’s why the afflicted prefer to WFH, and text instead

Consider this: you can’t read facial expressions, nor the tone of the voice. Moreover, most people you interact with misinterpret your face/voice, assuming you’re joking when you’re dead serious (and vice versa). So, you come up with s

Was going to write approximately this, thanks for beating me to it. Just a bit of sparkling from my own (mostly miserable) experience: the disdain for “normies” comes from them, “normies”, forcing a square peg (me, atypical) into a round ho

I second this. My TODO lists just keep growing, since the cost of adding an item to the list is infinitely lower than removing it. One ADHD trick that works for me (YMMV) is to write it by hand, on paper. Then I’d think twice before adding

Perhaps you really do need that me-time? I myself try to replace endless scrolling with reading (fiction) books. This way I get rest and don’t feel guilty about it.

FAANG are not-so-subtly forcing people to quit because they over-hired in the last years. Slow clap.

“Even if you win the rat race, you’re still a rat”. I’m in this field because I like writing code. So many of my managers tried to push me to advance my career, and generally speaking, there is peer pressure. Don’t give in, if you’re having

Yep, stopped working for me years ago. Had to contact The Guy personally every single time, because my archive grew to 20GB. He’s not responsive for years tho :(
