try different meds or take them at a different time of day, many people experience a “crash” when stimulance like adderall or medikinet where off.

I take part of my meds in the afternoon (unless i forget it again…) because that way they where off closer to bed time.

don’t worry, it takes atmost three months for that fresh code to become legacy code bogged down by decisions done in anticipation of things that never happened :)

i know story points as an estimate of complexity or time it takes to get something done. i was also asked many times to estimate stories with a fixed hard deadline thats laughably close to LocalDateTime.now(), aka Stories where someone allready decided that this must be an easy thing to do without knowing jackshit.

what are the story points you are talking about?

well, the ticket has a due date in 2 weeks so got to be a 7.

I don’t want to take away from Matés book helping you/being a good read, but they are a layman when it comes to adhd.

Dr. Russel Barkley often has videos analysing Matés opinions, which are well worth a watch (and he is great with quoting sources so free rabbit holes disappear into)

e.g.: Playlist of his Maté videos, beware youtube link

“logs show a reoccuring error in layer 8 everytime a subset of users engages with the system, reassigning this to the service desk to gather more information.”

i’ve read that on real ticket, i’ve laughed about it. it also makes me glad that i don’t do customer support, i don’t have the patience to keep explaining the same people that they keep doing something wrong and i lack the diplomacy skills to engage with devs that believe to be infallible and pretend that bug reports are personal insults against them.

Keeping focus for a whole movie can be tough yeah.

it works way better if i’ve taken my meds( huge suprise, i know :D) and even better in a cinema opposed to watching on tv or phone, i guess the big screen and proper sound system are just more engaging and there is less distraction.

If i watch a movie at home i often do it by watching it in like 30 minute episodes, because otherwise i end up rewinding multiple times anyway and that’s frustrating, so i rather take a break from it if my brain won’t cooperate.

the iberian orca attacks

no, but i’d swap for the ability to remember to call/visit friends and not zone out during a conversation i’d like to listen to.

eh, i guess tommorow might be less productive.

because no one follows the damn guide and “scrum” is done so managers can claim the company can work “agile”, because customers dont want “not agile”, customers also dont want to participate in the way it would be necessary for a project thats supposed to follow the scrum guide. that also sounded good for people looking for a new job so hr wants to put that into job descriptions and now everything is scrum and agile and i still have to sneak in refactorings or have to fight to get time to work on our fricking ci pipeline or need to conspire with QA to get them time to work on test automation, because screw the notion that decisions should be done by the people doing the work.

screw “scrum”, and the word “agile” should never have been taught to anyone claiming to be a “manager”, we don’t need managers we need people helping us getting the tools we need and trust that what we do, we do to deliver better solutions and helping us to fascilate constructive exchanges with customers.

data-plumbing-for-corporations tends to be able to be done in a way that’s easily testable, but also most people get paid to bolt on new shit onto old shit and spending time on “done” code is discouraged so once they fall behind on writing tests while developing the new shit those tests will never be written.

and bad developers that won’t write tests no matter what actually do exist.

if iam sitting like this iam not listening, because i am to busy trying to keep sitting like this.

give me atleast a deck of cards to shuffle and allow me to look around.

i’ve only read about rust, but is there a way to influence those automatic implementations?

equality for example could be that somethings literally point to the same thing in memory, or it could be that two structs have only values that are equal to each other

Strings are Objects, Doubles are Objects (that are than unboxed into primutives doubles)…

the “what” is interesting on interfaces or when you generate documentation with some tool like sphinx or javadoc.

the “why” is interesting when you are somewhere inside a class or function and do something in a “strange” way, to work around a quirk in the codebase or something like that, or when you employ optimizations that make the code harder to read or atleast less obvious why somethings are done.

good Tester.

If something stupid can be done, it will be done.

Nope, ice cream company.

there is no “undefined” in java. this would either be a map containing the key value pair (“name”, null) or it would be mapped to an object of some class with an attribute “name” which can hold a null value. in any case {} wont equal {“name”:null}.
