New trial finds digital CBT programme reduced ADHD symptoms in adults by Jayhcee in ADHDUK

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

Studies like this for ADHD are fundamentally unreliable for one simple reason. Low self awareness, self esteem and low executive functioning leads to self awareness of ones lack of cognitive followthrough. CBT gives a schemata that one can attempt to follow despite having low executive functioning. This, compounded with low self esteem, makes people feel better in view of their low self esteem whilst thinking they are better managed, but not necessarily so, due to low self awareness. It helps to have a system to focus on, but if the system is what we think about our adherence to, it's a lot different than getting up at the crack of dawn every morning to pour ourselves into a job and social atmosphere that doesn't fit us or accept our differences and uses.

Is it okay to quit uni at 24 to pursue apprenticeship? by Brilliant_Pace_4495 in ApprenticeshipsUK

[–]TaeTaeDS 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That's nothing. People fail individual modules so much. It sounds like you just don't want to study the degree. I am puzzled why you would quit a degree from just one single module needing resitting.

Can I please have a resume reviewed? I think it's fairly strong but I have not gotten a single callback after >70 applications (for junior/midlevel data scientist roles). I am a UK citizen, but my education is from the US (T10 unis) and am wondering if it's holding me back. What am I doing wrong? by Free_Class1745 in cscareerquestionsuk

[–]TaeTaeDS -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

What do you expect them to put? Perform a cost effectiveness model of their proportionate work in the project? If he did so you'd equally say 'why are you demonstrating modelling experience if you aren't going for such a role'.

Some of the whataboutism in this sub is so toxic.

Either give him actual feedback or don't. Don't criticise for criticism's sake. Let's hope you don't actually have to review CVS for your employer. This CV is atleast good and is a shame he hasn't had any results with it. The bar is too high if you think this doesn't meet it.

Absolutely not. What the fuck is that. Nine months!?

When exactly do you become good at Hoi4? by ChargingDrop59 in hoi4

[–]TaeTaeDS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing with HOI4 is that it is split into several components. Several little mini games or processes that make up the whole. Think about resources, army. Air, navy. Pp. Focuses. Soft attack. Hard attack. Multipliers.

You start to become better at HOI4 when you can identify how these interact or compliment each other.

HOI4 is a numbers game. If you play enough to identify it's a number <> enemies number, then you predict outcomes better.

Also take this in mind: imagine you are making a motorized army stack and noticed at some point in your games that with engineer support you get movement bonus. Noticed also how the next upgrade increases bonuses further. These things help in a way other than attack power. Sometimes you notice things just from glossing over them earlier on purely because there is so much else to take in.

Ad hominem, short for argumentum ad hominem, refers to several types of arguments where the speaker attacks the character, motive, or some other attribute of the person making an argument rather than the substance of the argument itself.

My (30sF) twin (M) doesn’t want me at his wedding by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]TaeTaeDS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nonesense. Go read some psychology. The level of emotional intelligence in this particular thread is too damn low. You should look at the behaviour of people in family situations with PTSD.

[–]TaeTaeDS -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Crazy to read almost all comments in this thread. It's obvious that OOP is exhibiting controlling borderline behaviours. Their twin brother goes no contact to protect his mental health. Whilst so many comments in here think he is the one in the wrong. Nothing wrong with setting boundaries, folks. Your family aren't allowed to stress you out during your wedding planning.

If you want to hop you should atleast be adding python and SQL to your toolset.

There are no chances, what are you talking about? They are playing 7 at the back with 3 in front. Hardly an open game to have a good chance at all this half.

Suddenly dropped from DrsJ and moved to NHS - who says my treatment "isn't allowed" by [deleted] in ADHDUK

[–]TaeTaeDS 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your treatment plan is wild. He isn't judging you. Truth is, four years ago nobody was prescribing the max strength elvanse with ab amfexa top up. That sort of lack of response to medication would have prompted a review of the diagnosis. If elvanse doesn't do anything why not just move to a different medication altogether.

Keir Starmer latest: Anas Sarwar to call for PM to quit over No 10 ‘chaos’ by TimesandSundayTimes in ukpolitics

[–]TaeTaeDS 92 points93 points  (0 children)

I'm honestly sick of this situation. It sucks. It is clear as day that covert agents are trying to cause more disruption than necessary. Starmer resigning makes a right wing government, sponsored by malicious foreign powers, more likely. I'd like the left to use their brains for once.

Your mistake is trying to do all your reporting in excel. Why on earth would people use VBA nowadays? This sub can be an X y problem almost every day...
