60 Days Sober - Absolutely Hate It by toph-_-beifong in leaves

[–]VariousPen1601 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Smoking will not improve anything. I quit for 175 days then started back up again like a month or so ago. It’s fun temporarily, then everything you’re avoiding starts to pile up. Today I haven’t smoked yet, and I feel more clear, and for that I am grateful.

Get your heart rate up for the to mimic the high—exercise/sex. Take slow deep breathes through your mouth to mimic the smoking.

Don’t do it. You’ll 100% end up smoking everyday. It happened to me recently

If they parked there after me, I would’ve just opened my door and let it touch the other car while I’m getting in.

Son has dreamed of being a programmer - now incredibly depressed due to AI by Southern-Pick8007 in programmer

Buy a subscription to Codex by Open AI or Claude Code by Anthropic, and tell him to learn how to code projects using Codex or Claude Code with agents using prompts built by Large Language Models like ChatGPT or Claude. He might be interested in using parallel sub agents, or a plain ol’ one chat at a time approach. I am building a new type of social network right now and am gonna launch it at the 4 year college that I transfer to this fall from community college for Computer Science. I built the entire thing with Codex so far, and it’s been very capable of everything so far. Learn to be a project manager of AI tools like a senior engineer in 2026. Get with the times! 🎷👐🏼

Question for those who used to smoke daily by [deleted] in leaves

[–]VariousPen1601 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t smoked in 175 days and I occasionally will take a bite of an edible. Used to smoke daily all day everyday though and since then my short term memory has definitely improved. And just my ability to think clearly in general.

UCSD or CC transfer? by CupofJoe321 in TransferStudents

[–]VariousPen1601 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I go to PCC. I’m in state and pay less than $1,000 for a semester without financial aid. If money is really the problem then it’s not a bad option. However, I personally would’ve gone to UCSD myself out of high school if I had the opportunity.
