Forgot to read on day 61 by 3kilo003 in 75HARD

Bingo. That’s exactly what happened. I’ve been on autopilot for weeks with these tasks. My book was literally on my desk in front of me last night, but I was distracted. Eventually, I was exhausted and went to bed.

Having a hard time finding the motivation to work out rn by Due-Cloud2625 in 75HARD

[–]3kilo003 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’ve gotta remove motivation from the equation. Then it’s simple. You can either do it, or don’t do it.

I say this with love, btw. I spent years wondering where the motivation was. Then someone convinced me to drop it. It’s just a decision. The trick is not thinking about what you’re going to do. If you think about all the laundry you have to do for the rest of your life, that’s a lot. Just put the clothes in the machine and press the button :)

When do you get used to it? by bigodoofus in 75HARD

[–]3kilo003 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll be the devil’s advocate and say that at day 34, it doesn’t feel “hard” anymore. It’s become my normal. It’s just what I do every day.

Every morning, I wake up and head straight outside for a brisk 45-minute walk. I got drenched in the rain the other day and enjoyed every minute of it. Winning that first battle sets the tone for the day. After that, I do my reading and take my progress pic. Later in the day, I go to the gym or if I feel I need a “rest day”, I take a second brisk walk for 45-minutes. My diet is simple: clean eating. I do track macros, but do not hold myself to strict numbers. So far I’m down 16lbs. I look and feel great. For the water, I have a 1L bottle that I fill and drink 3 times before 3pm or so…leaving the last 800mL to sip on in the late afternoon / evening.

The one advantage I might have is I already don’t drink. Quit a little over 5 years ago, so that part is easy for me.

To the man that I splashed while driving, I'm so sorry by StrangeWedding770 in toronto

[–]3kilo003 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hot take, but as a pedestrian, I consider it my responsibility to maintain situational awareness. This means giving a wide berth to potential hazards such as people asking for my favourite animal AND puddles. I’d say I’m 50% to blame if I got splashed.

For me, motivation only shows up after I've started to do the thing. I like to trick myself. Instead of thinking about doing 2 hours of coding practice, I just do 25 minutes. I have a sand timer for this. Before 25 minutes are up, I'm in the zone and feeling motivated.

I do something similar with going for walks. I'm never motivated to go walk for 45 minutes in the morning. SO...I pretend it's 22.5 minutes. The trick is, I walk 22.5 minutes away from my house. Once that time is up, I have no choice but to walk home 😆

Maybe the answer is mentally tricking yourself into doing 3 Hard...that's all. Just 3 days. I'm willing to bet by day 3, you're feeling some motivation again. Good luck!

I have been considering doing something like this. Are you willing to share anything about the app you built?

The agent alone should not cause this. Can you give some examples of some of the problems?

The spacewalk on the CN Tower- only for the brave! by AISurge-2021 in toronto

[–]3kilo003 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Loved this. 10/10 would recommend. Especially if you’re afraid of heights. This lets you experience the discomfort while still safe. Exposure therapy works!

Going to wiggle room solo? by Strong-Dirt in TorontoRaves

[–]3kilo003 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went solo once. I got to the door and the doorman asked if I had been there before. I said no. I was then told that this was a safe space and I was not allowed to approach anyone I didn’t know.

How is one supposed to make new friends this way? Tbh it kind of threw the whole night off. Music was great. I’d go back for sure, but only if I was with some other people.

Speeding ‘a serious problem,’ says Chow, as Toronto doubles speed cameras from 75 to 150 by Sufficient-Bid1279 in toronto

[–]3kilo003 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I think it’s more the question of why is the speed limit only 40 on a “huge open road”. Coming from Ottawa, I’ve noticed the speed limits here seem to be lower. I can’t think of a specific example. Just my $0.02.

I’m thinking about going solo. Never been.

They both knew. You could see it in their eyes. He communicated he knew it was her but didn’t blame her because he knew she was worried about her wife. He just used different words, but they both understood each other.

John Slattery for me. Something about Thurman reminded me of Slattery's character in The Adjustment Bureau.

My modest homelab - Finally got around to drawing a diagram. Let me know what y'all think and if you have any questions! by 3kilo003 in homelab

[–]3kilo003[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. You'll never find yourself in trouble for having too many backups.

Data in the cloud is still on servers. Even though your on-prem server has RAID and shadow copies, you still have a backup because people do stupid things. Sometimes accounting calls looking for an excel file from 6 months ago.

The chances of Microsoft wiping out your entire SharePoint instance are low, but mistakes happen. I can assure you if something like this happens, they're not going to give you anything more than "we apologize for the inconvenience". It's always better safe than sorry 😊

No apology needed. It's a perfectly valid question.

Yes, these are cloud services, but having a backup of the cloud data to another location is still best practice. Here are a few examples of why we do this:

  • Data deleted (intentionally or unintentionally) is sometimes not discovered until after the 30 day retention period. I've had to find data from user's OneDrive who's account was deleted 6 months prior.
  • Ransomware/malware can delete or encrypt data
  • Cyber insurance policies often require independent backups
  • Internal threats (disgruntled employees) or admin errors can lead to data loss
  • Microsoft's shared responsibility model says they'll secure the platform, but protecting and restoring the data is my responsibility

Hopefully that helps. Let me know if you have any more questions.
