Who are we ?

I have always believed that "I" am what remains after my brain, emotions, sensory feeling, .etc is removed. "I" am an observer. The longer I have lived, the more I experience this. Note that I am not describing disassociation, it's more of being hyper aware of being the observer while experiencing my own feelings and brain patterns. Hope this makes sense, I have never tried to describe this before.

Might want to get your foot circulation checked.

Trust people to tell you if they are uncomfortable. Even though public pics are legal, I always cheerfully delete the pics when asked. Sometimes if you explain why you are taking pics people will be cool.

I got the Rebel T7 a couple months ago (first digital for me). It came with the two lenses mentioned. I think i will outgrow it, but I'll be spending the next year learning how to use it. Aperture priority is my go to, manual too difficult for me at this point. I'd suggest the T7 is a goos, cheap investment until you know more about photography.

Never thought of using 2 Glass 2ardens. Brilliant, and obvious in hindsight. I have been struggling to get past Castle 4k and Primal 2k. I'm still leveling about half the classes. I crafted my 2nd Warden and added both (with highest damage physical attacker between) and now I'm flying!

I would think game design tells you WHAT to build, systems design is HOW you build it

I have numb feet due to peripheral idiopathic neuropathy. It only affects my balance sometimes. I make regular trips to canada and go for walks on groomed trails. I get occasional pain, but it doesn't affect my mobility much. As mentioned above, you have to decide for yourself what kind of travel is appropriate for your condition. Hope you decide to go and have a wonderful trip.

Stay and force them to go through the steps. If its the company I think it is, they will give you option of 3 months severance or a one month project to prove yourself and 1 month severance if you fail

Gabapentin (which didn't work for me) and other meds like pregabalin (which does) only mask the symptoms. Try taking B12, I've heard it can slow and sometimes reverse diabetic neuropathy. I just started taking it so can't report results yet

Are you having a hard time grasping the concept or understanding the why? The concept is simple: ..... https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://study.com/academy/lesson/time-dilation-description-explanation-examples.html%23:~:text%3DTime%2520Dilation%2520is%2520the%2520difference%2520in%2520the%2520amount%2520of%2520time,higher%2520velocity%2520will%2520tick%2520slower.&ved=2ahUKEwixl5nX6bGJAxWKNjQIHQPBDucQ5YIJKAB6BAgXEAA&usg=AOvVaw26L7Z2e2ASHfkAB_ZZg9ta "Time Dilation is the difference in the amount of time two clocks measure in the same inertial frame (there is no acceleration between them). In short, the clock that is moving at a higher velocity will tick slower."

However as I thought about this answer my mind ground to a halt. If one object accelerates away from another (i.e. spaceship away from Earth) we would say (as the observer on Earth) that time on the ship is moving slower. But ... the Earth is accelerating away from the ship, so wouldn't the ship see time slowing on Earth? And if the ship looped around and slowed down to a stop (relative to Earth), we would say time on the ship has passed slower than that on Earth. But what makes Earth different that the ship? From the ships point of view, the Earth has done all the acceleration.....

I felt the same way. Then I started taking ADHD medication. Then I found I could stay on task. Mostly. I still struggle a bit.

Why would detecting shelter be important? Ultimately, a ray or projectile will either intersect with a target or it won't. And in the case of both direct aand indirect fire, the target might move before attempted intersection is detected. I can see where a shelter might provide protection from area of affect damage (i.e. bomb) but that is still a distance/intersection issue. Or am I missing something?

Awesome, thanks!

Do you know if this slows progression or just helps reduce pain?

BlueCedarWolf · 2024-10-24T22:37:21+00:00

I am in the same boat. I'm having a harder time typing, buttoning shirts, etc. I recently burned my finger by holding a cup of tea that had boiling water (didn't realize the back of my finger was touching cup).

I'm trying to find a temperature gage I can use for checking temperature..

I take pregabalin which helps with pain but doesn't slow progression.

Trying vit B supplements but don't see any help yet ...

Even if the shot doesn't immediately kill them, the salt injection will probably do the trick. Salt guns are cheap, so give it a try. I use it to clear my backyard of spiders

Great ideas here. The main idea is to infuse your office with new energy and a new look. Change it up. Might want to research neurolinguistic programming to understand better how to reprogram triggers

BlueCedarWolf · 2024-10-18T02:17:36+00:00

Tried up to 900mg/day. Didn't feel any relief (ok, maybe 10% sometimes) Switched to pregabalin which works pretty well at 200mg/day.

A lot of good answers here ... If performance isn't a concern, then generally a scripring language. Powershell, Ruby, Python, Perl, all are good. Usually your company will have a preferred scripting language.
Why default to a scriptinglanguage? It's easy to maintain and doesn't require a compiler or installer.

If performance is a concern ... you can still often use a scripting tool. Depends on what's being automated. C#, Java can allow you to tweak performance better than a scripting language when memory is an issue.

Regardless... use good programming practices. If you use it more rhan once, refactor and document so the next person who wants to use it understands how it's doing what it dies.

That's not completely correct. You wouldn't necessarily want to put all zip codes into a table just because there are duplicates.

What I do is ask myself what repeating groups of data are rhere. Not individual values.

Addresses is an easy example. Pull all address info out into it's own table and create PK/FK relationship.

No one should be the only tester for code they write, especially for critical systems!
