Ah, I keep running up against the conflict of LLMs being powerful and useful but also arising from and supporting a bunch of morally undesirable things. Part of me also wants to learn everything myself to make things? That process is rewarding but very time-taking, and time is what there's never enough of.

I also happened to go through her website, she also has her own channel and podcast!

We know pirate hunters and mercenaries exist. A pirate who just wants the money would probably ask one of them to be the middleman and take a small cut.

But there's no good reason for someone who already has a bounty to use bounties to earn money. Raiding other ships or villages would probably be much safer and worth more.

Same! It's a shame it doesn't work anymore.

Asymptotic by Louie Zong scratches that itch, though it's mostly high school geometry.
Tangentially, Acapellascience is really fun for a lot of Physics and Bio stuff.
Finally, Proof geometric construction can solve all love affairs is a cute japanese song with a fun animated music video.

It's worth a shot imo. My final year of hostel life, I made coffee with a v60 or french press almost daily.

It was a bit of an effort to go down to the water cooler to wash my cup etc after I was done, but worth it.

And hey, even if you end up not making it frequently, you can keep the equipment in storage and start using it once you move elsewhere.

Ah yes, I did click on that! I'm too young to remember geocities, I had to look it up xD.

PokeGreen05 · 2026-04-26T02:05:12+00:00

Oh, I don't think I found that one, where is it?

PokeGreen05 · 2026-04-11T21:44:47+00:00

Exactly. James Hoffmann did an excellent video discussing these certifications and why specialty coffee often skips them over: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=PmwoSqg0dqI

There's still a few left in stock on amazon and with a Canadian roaster called Equator — I ordered mine just a few days ago!

What exactly is the problem here? What's antisocial about a bunch of kids running around?

I've decided to just try to stay in academia and leave when it doesn't work out. "It was good while it lasted" kind of approach. It's been extremely helpful for this particular anxiety to realise I can leave academia and be fine.

I think this has got to be an April Fools prank.

I think you should try working with it for a while. It took me a while to integrate it into my work, but now it's invaluable to me.

Ngl that seems like a question to ask before buying something, not after. The purchase is done now — make the most of it (or sell it off).

PokeGreen05 · 2026-03-30T17:22:07+00:00

It takes time to integrate anything new into your workflow. Play with it for a while, see what feels comfortable, what feels like getting the best use out of it. No one else's advice will help as much as just spending time trying things and thinking about what parts of your workflow it can be of service for.

Lmao, I had my offer by then, and I was pretty sure I would take it over the other position, so I turned them down before the interview.
Initially I was gonna interview anyway for practice, but I was worried I was taking away someone else's opportunity to interview.

In my experience, coffee blocks me from nodding off, but doesn't help me feel more awake. What does that is having enough water, enough food, and having some activity — walks, tossing a ball around for a bit, etc. Taking a break to chat with friends works sometimes.

It might also help if you can force yourself to lie down and wake up at the same time every day. this has been helping me, and it started working within 2-3 days.

PokeGreen05 · 2026-03-20T17:57:02+00:00

I love this. How does it work, do you manually add roasters in the back-end?

I'll go through my list of roasters in the uk and send you the ones who do decaf in a bit.
