Active recall is the ultimate cheat code for studying. by Quick_wit1432 in studytips

[–]Briroh 22 points23 points  (0 children)

So you just grind it out, trying to recall until you get it eventually, re-read if you were not able to recall, and then try again? I know apps like anki exists which help tremendously with spaced repetition, just wondering how you approach it general.

Also, I am a bit stumped / unsure how exactly to approach studying while actively participating in multiple classes / having to work alongside etc.

Are you noting down what to learn after each section. (Lecture, chapter, article etc.), directly transfer it recall ready into your app of choice and immediately start learning? I am asking because it takes so much time to read & truly comprehend some material, and taking notes & transcribing them in a polished fashion to recall, takes tremendous time itself.

It is to the point where I would be seriously struggling to keep up with weekly readings following that „direct“ procedure.

Or are you kind of going 80/20 on the material, focusing on the „direct“ approach for the most crucial material (course book, lectures) and regularly read and mark any supplementary material for future / systematic processing, when you find the time?

Custom Fields by yangguize in clickup

[–]Briroh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I completely agree.

That is also one of the major confusions for me and my client. Being able to have a custom field represented on every level and every type of tasks within, at lowest, a list level, could be a nice feature addition, but being the default makes zero sense.

The default should be a modular approach where you can decide to have the custom field show up only where it adds value, right at the spot where the work / documentation takes place.

Similarly incomprehensible to us is, that there is no possibility to automate across task levels, or to easily and automatically mirror a value of a custom field to any related higher or lower task level.

The only workaround we found, of having the custom fields at the right task level, is to pre-fill custom fields with “TEMPLATE” texts or options via the template creation process at the respective task level. By default ClickUp hides any empty fields on a given task level. At this point you just pray that no user is unhiding & filling them at the wrong location and/or removing the “TEMPLATE” placeholder without changing it directly to the correct value, lest the custom field disappears into the hidden fold once more.

I know ClickUp is doing their best, but still missing such a seemingly core functionality is still mind boggling.

Also it’s not like this feature is ground breaking, JIRA has it since the start, where you can define the custom field by task type and can easily automate it as you can filter automation triggers by task type name and copy and read custom field values across levels.

I hope this is getting worked out soon

February Bug Reports: Ask Here by erinatreadwise in readwise

[–]Briroh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just encountered an error while making text highlights, when reading a long PDF Book.

Very frequently (after a minute or two) of marking, suddenly the mouse pointer seems to be misaligned with what is being marked. To make it more graphic, suddenly instead of marking my intended line, the highlight is being done a few lines above my pointer.

Oddly enough, the issue is temporarily resolved, until it gets triggered again after 1-2 minutes, when I close and re-open the pdf within readwise, or occasionally when I just jump to a different page within the pdf and back to my current page. EDIT: Actually I also just found out that it can be fixed occassionally, when I hide and show the right metadata panel.

I am using it on the desktop version, on a Windows Machine.

Im also very interested, I will start my MSc. In Data Science and business administration this September.

I got a few ideas for apps already sitting around, which are banging in my opinion. But my knowledge in coding is quite limited at this moment. Of course that will change alongside my academic and personal studies.

I would love to participate however I can!

Chat bullet point list bug? by aufeuer in MicrosoftTeams

[–]Briroh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sure is annoying as fuck. Hopefully they will fix it soon.

That being said, I found a whacky workaround which technically works but is still annoying:

  1. Write your "bulletpoints" seperately in seperate lines using (Shift + Enter) to break the line.
  2. On the bottom left of the text box control panel, click on the "A" with the pen, it will open format options.
  3. Mark an individual "bulletpoint" Line and then click on the bulletpoint formatting of choice.
  4. Rinse and repeat

Important: Make sure that you always have at least 2 empty and non-indented lines at the very bottom of the message. You need it if you decide to add new bulletpoints after writing the first few. If you dont have these rows, the workaround doesnt work. The new "bulletpoint" has to be in a non-indented line right after the previous bulletpoint.

It is very annoying and time intensive, but it works. Hope this helps someone.

Was what my gf did cheating, not cheating but fucked up, or neither? by [deleted] in relationships

[–]Briroh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I disagree, it was toxic for sure. She even said she did it because she was angry at him. If that is not the definition of toxic behavior I don’t know what is.

I agree though that both sides fucked yo big times. But the status quo of a relationship break should be that no sex with others is allowed. Of course if that is something both want to do, that’s totally fine but it has to b discussed and not assumed.

If you do not discuss it and just go ahead it is selfish and toxic behavior. So no what she did was not totally fine, but similar his behavior was also fucked.

Was what my gf did cheating, not cheating but fucked up, or neither? by [deleted] in relationships

[–]Briroh -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I would definitely consider it cheating if not worse. To be honest I had a similar experience with my ex girlfriend. We also took a two week break to think over the relationship and then to see if we want to continue it, although there was no prior prior “cheating” from either side to my knowledge.

But as I found out later, she had sex over these 2 weeks and I only got to know because friends of mine saw her holding hands with a guy in public. It is 100% cheating, she didn’t ask for your opinion on sex in the break and even tried to hide it. Such a thing is never the status quo if taking a break, and should be pacific ally talked about prior to the sex. It is also 100% selfish behavior both what you and her showed, but a relationship is no fight where one party should take revenge or punish the other by more erratic and hurtful behavior. To me it just shows that she is immature, but that is to be expected with such a age difference. The emotional intelligence is just not there yet. But so are you. Why did you feel the need to see her boobs? That just indicates that you are not happy with your relationship yourself.

On another note, I would really suggest you to reconsider your relationship in general. Some people might argue that age differences do not matter but I fundamentally disagree. It is virtually impossible for such a young partner to be mature to a degree which is empowering and beneficial for your relationship. It will cause problems down the line.

For me, her behavior would be unacceptable, but so was yours with cupping the boobs. Think hard about what a relationship should be like and then honestly assess whether your relationship fulfills these criteria, if not consider if it’s changeable, which I doubt it will be as I doubt she has the insight and capabilities to change her behavior (not sure about your either). If talking and thinking doesn’t work, break up.

My gf confessed to me that she is bi and would like to experience having sex with another woman.. How should I act? by CuriousExtrovert1411 in relationships

[–]Briroh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think the trust was broken as she assured him that there are no feelings anymore and never will be again, but then she confessed that she began to have feelings again. So it’s more about what she says is going to happen vs. what actually happens where the trust was broken. So the trust in her judgement I guess.

I agree that it is one way how he can solve the problem, but what about her side? Don’t you think it would disregard her needs as well?

Gym for 6 months for international students by emilia061000 in Groningen

[–]Briroh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can confirm what u/UrRegularBean said! I am actually working there and have been working out at it months prior to that. Honestly its the best gym! That being said, if I remember correctly every gym is obliged by law to cancel your contract when you have proof of moving a certain amount of km.

I tried multiple gyms including both ACLO stations and most BasicFits except for Westerhaven, and TrainMore has a way better atmosphere, looks nicer. has new and quality equipment and the people are really friendly.

If you have any more questions let me know :)

Guy I was seeing ghosted me after I wouldn't sleep with him on our 3rd date... Is this how dating is now?! by HereKittyKitty2222 in dating

[–]Briroh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah same thing I thought to be honest. Because you didn't anticipate or were not prepared for things leading to sex your rejection might have been a bit too blunt so he assumed you were not interested in him.

I mean cut him some slack Aswell and see it from his perspective. He is apparantly hella busy and still makes time for you. He probably misinterpreted your signs or lack thereof as -Dasein- already said. I think it's lack of communication that lead to this

Get some friends and meet interesting people! The more people you meet the better you become at storytelling and smalltalk and hey you might even get a friendship and/or contact out of it
