  • We’re all* going to need to come together and really knuckle down, if we’re* to catch up with out competitors. It will take sacrifice* and grit.

    But together* we* can do it!

    *The people affected will be those with a net worth less than €5m

  • For digital rabbit holes, something like Notion helps a lot. I have one page per interest and I collect learnings and links related to the topic in there. Similarly to the physical buckets, they are all in one space so you can have a quick look at refresh your memory and pick up where you left off.

  • I’ve stopped giving myself a hard time for having wandering interests and not finishing anything.

    I try to look at it more as I’m having fun researching and implementing things, that’s what hobbies are for.

    Trying to force myself to finish things really sucked the fun out of them. Now I have literal and figurative buckets for each project so I can easily put down and pick up projects.

    I find myself moving between fewer projects and putting more effort into them than I would have before.

    I do keep some buckets closer than others, so I’m more likely to pick those up when I have free time;

    Drawing

    Designing fidget toys

    Electronics project C

  • Just buy a good 3d printer for your first. Sure, it’ll cost money, but the heartache of constant troubleshooting and tweaking can just suck the fun out of the hobby if you just need this print to succeed.

    Prusa Mini+ (I think) Bambu A1 Mini (this would be my #1 starter printer before the security updates they done)

  • Start printing things first.

    Check for issues and address those issues.

    If you start disassembling, you won’t know what needs the most attention, and you might just get bored and give up, without knowing what printing can do for you.

  • Big true.

    However the ride in the OP was one of the better 3d augmented rides.

    I only did a couple before i had to stop. A friend went on a few more and then the race around New York and she was destroyed. We managed to walk a little bit before she had to stop. She puked up literally 2L+ of vomit.

    It was fucking gnarly to watch, especially since I sat down in the shade with a bag of popcorn while they were on the ride and had a lovely relaxing time.

  • For me, I’ll hop onto a new git branch and start renaming functions and variables to what they actually do.

    I might drag some blocks of code out into new functions, just a real rough refactor to get both the flow and my understanding of each block in place.

    Big if conditions get their own function, named what the intent is.

    I work in Xcode, so we can add extra context to breakpoints. I recently discovered the bookmarks that are built in, and you can annotate them too!

    Make a change, start from the top and make sure it reads ok and still makes sense.

    It’s eating an elephant on repeat.
