I think that is a literal storyline in Belgarath the Sorcerer. The wizard, Belgarath, spends thousands of years monitoring and manipulating various family lines. One of those is a line of dryads who are tiny and all female. He was “forced” to mate with them or they would kill him with bows, but he didn’t really complain about it. He is able to avoid these “conflicts” in the future after discovering chocolate makes them orgasm.

Some times you don’t think about how weird this shit gets until you explain it to someone else.

This is an area where AI can be helpful. Tell the AI what Linux distro your on and what you want to do. Most of the time it will give you pretty good answer. If you don’t understand what it is telling you to do, ask it to explain the thing in detail. Most important thing though is to always verify what it tells you before you run stuff. Google search specific commands or use the “man” command to get documentation. The key thing is the AI can make you aware of CLI commands and tools more easily then trying to find what you need on your own.

I think you are making it more complicated than needed. If you just want reliable service, just figure out who has the most reliable Internet and power and they can host the server. If you want to learn kubernets or docker swarm, you can try that but it will take a ton of upfront work.

Edit: Also get a UPS for the server.

I think I have seen a few CLI tools that put the input between an open and close arg like this “-arg1 random passthrough string -arg1-”

I used anxiety as a adaptive response to my ADHD and learned to use being productive as a self soothing technique. Need motivation to do a task, have anxiety about it. Want to make sure you don’t forget something, just carry constant anxiety about it. The breaking point caused me to develop acid reflux. The improvement was started with HealthyGamerGG videos, which led to getting medication and therapy. This is still a work in progress. Replacing a habit of thought is a process that takes many repetitions.

When I was in school, nothing could motivate me to clean more efficiently than homework I didn’t want to do.

For me personally it gives me the ability to choose to do things. Before it would be hard to do a thing I didn’t want to do. It was like trying to pickup large heavy smooth ball covered in oil. Now the ball isn’t covered in oil. Picking it up didn’t become easy, just possible.

I’m pretty sure they just play the game so the have something to do between arguments about military secrets on the forums.

Spend some time learning about ADHD. Maybe you will understand yourself better, but if not you will at least understand other people better.

It’s a tool and has its place. For me it’s currentl place is replacing Google searches about programming stuff. This is not to say the AI answers are perfect, they are just generally a better use of my time than Google results because Google has gotten so bad.

Important distinction is “Computer Science”. My degree is “Software Engineer” and project management was a significant part of the program. We had a junior group project that started with our class doing a client interview of the teacher to extract what the project requirements where. I think a lot of people don’t know that software engineer programs are even an option.

It can be challenging and the pattern of making goals and not hitting them can be frustrating enough that you just stop trying to make goals. These are some things I find help me get stuff done.

Social pressure keeps me focused very well, so I go to gym classes. Anytime I work out alone it is a struggle to not just bail early. So I will try to integrate social pressure into things that I find important.

Setting standards instead of goals. One example was me wanting to better understand TCP/IP networking. So I set a standard of reading the textbook I had on the topic 30 minutes a day. Some days I did less some days I only read a couple pages due to poor focus. But I just stayed focused on meeting the standard every day. I ended up reading through more than half of a very thick textbook with dense technical information. Way further than I would have otherwise.

Next is to set a priority queue. It’s hard to focus on 10 projects. It is much easier to focus on a single top priority and not worry about the other 9 at all.

Last is be realistic about your limitations. It is easy to set your expectations based on your best days and beat yourself up on your crap days. Also I find my “Best days” are frequently me hyper focusing so hard I have 2 crap days after to recover. Some times it’s not about what you “should do” and more about what you “can do”.

I think it is federal law that the federal currency must be accepted as valid payment for any debts. So you could argue if the restaurant has you pay after eating, that is a debt being payed. But if they have you pay first, like at a food truck, it could be valid to not accept cash payments.

I think that a solution is a “warranty” of sorts. They have a clearly define date which the are promising the game will be playable until. If they end the game early they have to offer a prorated refund for the “time lost” or provide a solution so you can play without their servers.

I would additionally want this to be required to be communicated outside the ULA and must be presented in language that even children can understand. Preferably both before and after purchase.

I think it is more likely he stopped the “enhancement” because they have well know health impacts and he wants to live longer.

I immediately interpreted that as, “All that stuff you keep saying your going to do, just accept that your not going to do them.”

In theory that is the purpose of federal funds for roads. But that also comes with the requirement that you don’t toll interstate highways with some exceptions for paying for new construction. Source: https://youtu.be/EpLSsNEnBBQ

The doctor on YouTube channel HealthyGamerGG has a lot of good information and has recently written a book for parents.https://www.healthygamer.gg/how-to-raise-a-healthy-gamer

As a person who knew I had ADHD (inattentive) since middle school but didn’t get an official diagnosis and treatment until my late 30s, I would recommend exploring an official diagnosis and treatment. 2 reasons: 1) It might take you years to get a diagnosis and find an appropriate therapist. 2) I now look back and wonder if I could have done better in my life if I got treatment sooner.

Or just go off the manufacturers listed weight of the vehicle. I’m sure it would not be that hard to make a database to lookup weight by make and model.

I was thinking the same thing. I guess they want to do it this way because electric vehicle owners are the minority and they will probably get less push back then changing it for all vehicles.
