Instead of comp, here's a pool table. That'll keep everyone in the office!

My favorite way to end brushing my teeth.

I had not thought about having the sunscreen leech into the water. Thank you for educating!

Yeah, but one day the thousands of browser bookmarks will come in handy. Right?

The per degree temp control is a huge win along with the spout. Itll also stay warm for 30mins, optional beeps when done heating, and you can have it boil water automatically for a specific time. I really enjoy mine.

I have the same one. Mainly got it for temp control for white tea and figured having per degree control was a huge plus. Plus it's so nice artistically

Ugh, I hate that this resonates.

Does medication help with this?

I was recently diagnosed from a neuro-psych. Similar process of many hours of testing (~5h). My friend was also diagnosed recently from a psychiatrist through question answer, but no formal cognitive evaluation measure. The amount of clarity I got from the neuro-psych in terms of cognitive function and my specific circumstances was significantly more helpful than what my friend got from the psychiatrist.

After all the formal testing, I was given a thorough 17 page report including a breakdown of each aspect of cognitive functioning, any applicable disorders (with recommendation for therapy to investigate further and confirm), next steps, and treatment and coping mechanism recommendations. My friend was given a broad diagnosis of unspecified ADHD with no additional information.

If you are able to afford the neuropsych eval, it is well worth it.

It's actually pretty shocking. It seems so normal to struggle to buy a house, yet most of the last generation have one. It's going to be a rude awakening for society as this trend continues. At some point the older generation is going to pass on and free up houses. What is that even going to look like? Are they going to be jacked up too? It's just not sustainable if you project it out. There has to be a tipping point. People need homes and renting is so limiting.

This is an article from 2015 where Facebook/Meta was exploring Blu-ray for their DCs. You're definitely right though. Tape is key as the longest term storage.

This is such a great example of the potential consequences of making a decision without understanding the landscape/context. It's obvious this would happen in hindsight.

Super cool, blew my mind! I would love to see it in operation. The logistics from the machine side + the storage heuristics for when to store to a disc that's write-only sounds like a really cool problem.
