There are a lot of negatives to be sure, but some positives too. It’s a double edged sword. Hyper focus can cause the absorption of lots of information, and the changes in attention can take someone to myriad topics. That can help create connections between areas of knowledge that might not usually mix, aiding in creative problem solving.
I don’t lament my ADHD, I just wish I knew about it earlier, so I could have adapted better.
Don’t know why you got down voted for that. HDR might be the only reason I use 11.
Link to the Past for being my first. Twilight Princess for the modern era.
I wear whatever I want whenever I want. I have no carpets to fuss over, and I have cats so you never know when you might step in some mess. We vacuum and mop regularly so don’t really care.
Yes, effective communication strategies are a vital and required skill set for the most learned among us. It is the duty of the rational to communicate knowledge and understanding to the irrational. They certainly can’t do it themselves.
This. As someone with severe combined type ADHD, it is vitally important to develop coping strategies. Timers, alarms, calendar entries, etc. Anything and everything that works. I also recommend passing your decision making process through a mental prioritization framework so you target the lowest hanging fruit (choose biggest impact tasks that require the least amount of effort to complete).
You mean lease it? Rent it? Own implies it’s mine period. Not mine until they decide to remove it. A bank can’t take away your house cuz they feel like it after you’ve paid for it.
Well, I felt that one.
Fair enough. I’ll never argue against being specific and accurate!
I will grant that it is different. But is it meaningfully different? Either way, the people are not represented.
Gamer here. Go fuck yourself Ubisoft. You can quote me on that.
I don’t know what that means. I don’t think we are communicating. Just talking past each other. Be well.
Ok, well, I hope that works out for you. Really do. Weapons got us where we are today for better or worse. If you pine for a life in the woods, that’s certainly a way to live life. But regardless of what you decide, the tech isn’t going anywhere. And your competitors will be using it. And those who abhor weapons can still die upon them.
Semantics. It’s genocide then. Or some other more technical term. There’s a word for it, who cares? Everyone knows what we mean. And that’s the point of words. To covey a meaning from one mind to another.
If you want to play the semantics game and abolish in-context definitions of words, then abolish all slang and idioms too.
It’s not enough for YOU to vote. We ALL need to vote. And not just in the Presidential election. In all elections, including local, state, and most importantly PRIMARIES. We have an FPTP Voting System, which trends us towards a 2 Party system.
In such a voting system, the only way to meaningfully change the position of the parties is to make sure the party is compromised of and is led by people who share your positions and who will actually represent your interests effectively.
1 person voting in a general election that’s already narrowed down to a few swing states isn’t going to do it. Get everyone you know to get off their asses and vote in primaries, in general elections, and any other local elections you can manage.
If you only have time to vote in one election? Make it the primary for your party.
Voting is the lowest hanging fruit. It will cause the biggest impact for the least amount of effort. If we cannot get our asses to polls we aren’t going to get our asses up to do anything harder than voting. Not until people get much more desperate, much hungrier, and much more miserable. I think our voter turnout for primary elections is around 20%. We should be ashamed of ourselves.
Imagine a world where the shittiest candidates were all weeded out months before the general election. That’s what the Primaries are for.
This is true, but it’s neglecting one variable that does complicate the math slightly. There is greater air resistance at highway speeds. IIRC at 60mph 50% of your power is lost due to the air resistance.
So yes, if we lock the speed to a fixed value and compare them, then regenerative of course doesn’t increase the range more than not stopping at all. But that’s the nuanced gap in the discussion where misunderstanding is going to reside. That’s why you two are on different pages. Someone is assuming equal air resistance (speed), and someone is assuming a comparison of average city miles vs highway miles.
Neither is necessarily the ONLY way to look at it. It’s all relative.
So? Does that undo the work you accomplished and submitted?
Look, I’m not going to spend more time to convince everyone they are going to screw themselves by being stubborn about AI tools. It’s going to be paradigm shifting tech. It’s the invention of the calculator, the Internet, the smart phone, etc. all over again. If you refuse to learn it, I am very confident you will be left behind, like a coal miner in an old company town.
I’ve already used AI to write functional working code for me. We are already rolling it out in medical practices. My friend are already using it to modify game code without even knowing anything about coding.
It’s a new way to learn and accomplish things. Technology is a tool to be used. If you don’t believe that, why are you using technology at all?
Well, my computer knowledge extends back to some form of MS-DOS when I was 4 years old. Back then, you either knew how to operate a command line interface or you didn’t know how to actually use a computer to do anything on your own.
Now the entire world uses computers for almost every single job. And yet, we live in a time where people are not proficient with the tools they are using to live and work.
If your mechanic said, “I’m not much of a wrench person” you’d take your car elsewhere.
If your typical office worker said, “I’m not much of a computer person” , 90% of their colleagues would nod, grin, and say “I know right! Computers are so dumb! So hard to use!”
I told her to do it again, but not dismiss the pop-up so quickly so I could see what it said.
I shit you not, I’ve had a user do worse.
I’ve done the same exact scenario as you with one difference. I told her the same thing you did. And then. She closed the message again. While I was pointing at it, and asking her to read it out loud.
I.
Pointed. At the screen. And said read this out loud.
She moved her mouse to my finger.
And closed the message.
I.
Can’t.
