A whole list? That sounds like it would take somewhere between 3 seconds and 6 hours. Who has that kind of time?

31·1 year agoIm going to assume you’re not trying to be an asshole here and don’t really understand.
Yes, most of us know that this is hyperbole. We understand that non-ADHD folks aren’t robots and generally have an understanding of what social interaction for people without ADHD looks like.
Its the degree to which this effects us that is in play. When it comes to most things with ADHD if you read it and it sounds like something that everyone experiences just be aware that folks with ADHD experience it to a debilitating level.
It isn’t that other people don’t get sidetracked or go on tangents when telling a story, it’s that ADHD folks struggle to or are unable to tell a concise story. Even if we’ve practiced and rehearsed it 1000 times. It’s common for us to clarify something multiple times because we’ve forgotten what we’ve already told you or start in what seems like the middle of a conversation because we’re unaware that you’re lacking context. It’s common for us to start explaining something, completely forget what we’re talking about half way through, and just keep talking and hope we somehow answer the original question. It can be legitimately difficult to have conversation on a specific topic.
To the best of my understanding, this can be explained by the fact that most of us have a very limited working memory and struggle to pass information between working, short term, and long term memory. Often, we’ve quite literally forgotten what we were talking about and are using context clues to keep going.
edit: Noticed that I missed a few words/had a partially rewritten sentence. I feel like I accidentally proved my point somewhat.

Hell yeah! I remember being at a show with mc chris, MC Lars, and Mega Ran when the 2016 election results were announced. They made a bad night bearable.

1·1 year agoI don’t really like associating these people with the concepts presented in the Bible. Their understanding of Jesus, to me, feels about on par with a Republican political candidate’s understanding of Rage Against The Machine.
I remember back when I was in school and staring at my hands seemed infinitely more important than homework. Also watching shadows change as the sun moved across the sky.
Thinking about really makes me appreciate Adderall.

0·1 year agoI would say that we can’t really quantify morality on a time scale that large. I may be confusing terms here but the specifics of what is and isn’t considered moral will vary wildly between different groups of people and different time periods.
Even if you break morality down to the concept of “don’t cause unnecessary suffering” leaves a lot of room for different interpretation.

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•We're cooked y'all 🤣English
11·1 year agoAI is a tool, Ashish is 100% correct in that it may do some things for developers but ultimately still needs to be reviewed by people who know what they’re doing. This is closer to the change from punch cards to writing code directly on a computer than making software developers obsolete.
Honestly, I just ask if they can solve FizzBuzz. It shows me how they approach problems, how they communicate their process, and that they know basic programming concepts. The rest of the interview just kinda tells me if I’d get along with them as a person. Most other things, good and bad, only show up over time.
Then again, I work with software that isn’t exceptionally complex.
I’m up to four or five. Honestly, we should keep track and see who gets the high score

Which means twice the savings when you unexpectedly lay them both off!

I once worked with a guy who would actively remove everyone else’s comments any time he touched someone else’s code. Only comments he made during code reviews? “Does this comment need to be here?”. The code was a barren, commentless place.
