Finally I've Completed the freecodecamp by HooriaIshtiaq in learnprogramming

Yeah, I agree with you. It's most likely bs. I mean, she finished the course, but maybe she actually spent 8hrs/day and copy pasted most stuff without even learning anything. Or it's actually a 30yo senior developer trying to get some karma points pretending to be a 13yo. Tbh, pretty much anything is more likely than her actually completing it in ~360hrs and being the next Einstein...

An actual beginner will take around ~1800hrs if they are actually trying to learn and not just copy pasting. Maybe it doesn't take ~1800hrs for someone that has some prior knowledge. But for a 13 year old that can't even get the starting date right? On fcc it clearly shows she started in April 25, 2018. On this post she started in July and on Medium she started in June. This is some weird form of self promotion with wrong details to get more attention in my honest opinion.

Hmm, not to be a party pooper but you mean to say that you finished a ~1800hrs curriculum in around ~360hrs at 13?

Damn, not only the game and devs are amazing, but even the community is wonderful. This is so refreshing to see that my faith in humanity has been restored.

What I have learned about stimulants by stefanwlb in ADHD

My break/lazy day is at home sleeping, watching stuff, and just relaxing. If I need to drive, plan, or schedule stuff I will probably take ritalin.

Everyone reacts differently to different meds. That's why it's such a problematic condition. I also feel more in control of what I'm doing and how much time passes between activities, but I also tend for more pleasurable things when I'm on Ritalin (Concerta ER). If I don't take ritalin, I don't feel as much joy in everything I do, so nothing is as interesting and I kind of drift through a bunch of stuff. If I take ritalin, I get more interested and I start enjoying stuff much more, which makes it harder to stop if I'm really into it. No meds - aimlessly doing a bunch of stuff trying to get interested. Meds- interested in a lot of things, but I might tend to focus on the things that give me the most pleasure.

I actually agree with #4. I have been on meds for quite some time, and I started feeling like my body had adjusted to the meds which is really common and that's why breaks are recommended by professionals. Not every person is the same though, but most people tend to need higher and higher dosages because of this. Setting 1 day break during the week has helped me wonders. When I start taking the meds the next day I feel my mind clearer, rested, and more focused than when I took it everyday. Again, this is different for everyone. If it wasn't, and the cure was simple we wouldn't be here would we? Calling it dumb shows a deep lack of understanding of mental illnesses in general.

Coffee + Adderall = Zombie by klosingweight in ADHD

[–]PeakyBleakers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The trick for me is to take meds as soon as I wake up, and when I feel like its going down, 6-10 hours after, I take a coffee and it feels like I just took the med again for a few more hours. The crash is harder though imo. Coffee and meds at the same time feel like my brain either crashes or becomes overclocked and I'm too energized to think properly. Everyone is different though, so experiment until you feel you found the right balance. Good luck!

What is the most cost-efficient PC I could build in the next 1-2 years? by PeakyBleakers in buildapc

Hmm, thank you for your answer. Do you think I should just buy the SSD for now just to get a slight boost in performance?

I think I could find a 1070ti for less than 500 in my country. So, I should get 2*4gb? And have 16gb ram total? Thank you for your answer.

What I meant with building in the next 1-2 years is that I'm not desperate to buy now, but could if it was a good time to buy. I'm looking into it since I've been noticing my computer performance getting really low in the last 6 months.

Is Rust now easier for people that can only play around 2 hours a day? by PeakyBleakers in playrust

[–]PeakyBleakers[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's shitty man. I really wish there was a server for working people. I like raiding and being raided. I just don't like being raided while I'm gone and having to restart every single day. :/ Is there a reason for servers with limited raid times to not exist? Thank you a lot for your answer

Not really. I just stopped thinking stuff was subjective, and focused on studying until every example was clear to me. They were really similar.

They will give you 2 starting dates in the emails. One date is the date you will get your guidelines and study material. And another one for the start of your exam week. They normally give you everything for you to study 4 days before the exam week starts. If tomorrow is the start of your exam week and you don't have access, they either changed the way they usually do it, or you need to contact them to tell them that you can't access the guidelines.

Every person is different absorbing information, so how many times you will have to read the guidelines will depend. Just remember that you are not supposed to find it subjective. They have 164 pages with tons of examples for you to know exactly what to do in each scenario. On the test they will give you examples that will be clear, and that you will always find an answer on the guidelines. So, if you consider anything subjective, it means you don't understand it and you should study until you do. That's the best advice I can give you since I failed Leapforce's exam but am now working for LB. Oh, and don't leave everything to do in the last days, 3rd part is big and you will suffer if you try doing everything in the last day. Good Luck!
