I'm yet to try it out, thus curious. Why it wouldn't work for ADHD. Also what other browser do you suggest? I currently use Safari and Librewolf.
Case in point from California - Crumbl cookies - overpriced cookies in nice packages, sold out of outposts. Tips correspondingly are outrageous for the machine. Checkout screens have these dark patterns that can trick you as well. Sigh!
Infosys in India did this successfully in the 90s and 2000s. Giant sprawling campuses with gyms, saunas, pools, laundromats, doctors/physical therapy units, dorms, coffee shops plenty of food courts with subsidized food, open round the clock. Buildings in weird shapes- spheres pyramids washing machines. Even football fields! Programmers who lived in shabby Apts flocked to the nice offices and practically lived there.
Several times I keep finding me switching through apps. When notion became the rage, I went to make an account to find out that I already had an account (with to do lists from months ago). I have made sincere attempts to use it as my primary tool, often spending days on setting it up and sometimes money. I always lose interest and switch to the next fancy thing.
Among Notion, amazing Marvin, ticktick, toodledo, things, Microsoft todo, several calendar apps, structured, streaks, Any do, dynalist, OneNote, trello, clickup- I finally (for now) settled on Drfats and OneNote (at work since it comes default and I can move pages around).
Drafts- can’t handle images. Also needs about 20$/year. (I have paid for majority of the above listed apps at some point, including notion for their ai. )
But on the plus side, I got into a habit of just dumping everything on my phone directly into drafts, hoping I will dirty and organize it later. So the capture part is kind of good right now. The acting on captured part is still pending.
Also recommend an app called zen diary which is a linear flow of text, like a log.
I have ADHD, refuse to acknowledge it and I use Apple devices personally and windows at work.
Apple has the chops to make a ‘hidemynumber’ successful but I highly doubt they would endeavor into that. Maybe if Twilio offers a similar service I would go in but Apple’s level of integration is difficult. The same reason I use iCloud Keychain more than 1Password.
This is good strategy. The source data, the tech to go through the data, the customers to sell the results back to - it’s all there.
Next up, AI in games through their own studios, activision Blizzard and the xbox platform.
Videos/video based content is something Microsoft doesn’t have. It’s mostly confined to ‘stream’ and teams.
I had switched to MS ecosystem (invested in windows 10, onenote+outlook (client and mail service)+todo and onedrive) when 'Gmail is evil' fiasco started years ago. Sticking to it due to convenience, innovation (boards in calendar, teams for personal use, loop etc., O365 being smooth online) and affordability (stackable multi year subscription through offers -amz/Newegg).
Now rethinking after I got windows 11 in a new machine - the push to use edge is now really annoying. Xbox is nice in win11 but I have found win11 to be pretty buggy as well, hangs a lot in a gaming laptop being used only for browsing. Edge feels super convenient, like old opera with all the bells and whistles built it but at times it feels scary. Especially when it comes with your employer badge in a work computer. Similarly viva insights. MS has mastered the art of telemetry it seems. Majority of my colleagues and friends do not seem bothered.
I had debloated my win10 installations but too lazy to do it again in win11. Any suggestions?
The only forum I browse is HN. I gets high out of the quality of the conversation here. I think dang is requesting is to avoid redditesque humor. I don’t think we need ‘pulling out’ jokes, especially hinting at Elon’s personal life to make the conversations livelier. We can do better for sure.
Yes cloud hosted apps are still tested. You will need to let your cloud provide know about your tests or you (IPs) might get banned.
They don’t do this anymore. It used to be the case. Last year, I tried and I was asked to use it at the checkout station to buy stuff.
I test internal/enterprise software for a large corp in US. The reason I’m not able to disconnect is the sheer amount of work thrust at me, coupled with an incompetent team located in another part of the world (I have to manage them during weird hours). It’s living hell, and I can’t get out (combination of visa restrictions, decent pay, location). It’s an entirely different reality compared to what others have shared here, and I know a lot of folks who are in the same boat with me.
