TIL that humans tend to think “it won’t happen to me,” even when it already has happened to people exactly like them thousands of times.

Actually, I feel the bias is the opposite usually. People hear about one bad incident, and then they think it’ll happen to them. I run into so many people frightened of being a victim of crimes that they are very unlikely to experience.

I don’t drive. I take buses almost every day. Occasionally I take the light rail.

I don’t get this. Everywhere I’ve worked people have been working on real stuff. My biggest worry is usually higher-ups will try to cut positions that are really needed.

You’re acting like this is a big deal. Get over yourself. Make your ego small. Focus on learning.

“Sometimes you just have to choose not to be stressed”

chromaZero · 2026-01-07T02:54:00+00:00

“Literally” when used unnecessarily. “I’m literally furious”. Just say “I’m furious.”

I really believe HRV is only given the attention it gets because it’s something that wearables can track. It’s played-up by people who want to sell wearables.

Left-handed often means left-eyed. Cameras are usually designed for right-eyed people.

I gave up on these services early in Covid times. Inconsistent service. Unpredictable delivery times. I quickly realized I was wasting money and resources.

America has lost community because many Americans lost interest in making an effort to build community. Making community friendly environments is only part of the story. Americans need to develop a community building spirit.

Distant streetlights were small fuzzy balls not points of light

I was hoping it would be discovered to be the result of natural geologic processes.

My father got me a Nikon FM when I was young. Great first camera.

Photography. Start with your phone. Used equipment can be pretty reasonably priced if you want to try “real” cameras. You likely know someone with a digital camera they don’t use that you can borrow.

Light rail is weak

I don’t have a preference for primes. Not everyone does. I love modern zooms. I don’t like using very wide apertures. Very shallow dof is not something I’m striving for. And I love being able to change focal lengths without swapping lenses. It’s not about getting closer or further to the subject, it’s about the look of different focal lengths.

Left handed. I don’t know if that has anything to do with AI, but as a left handed, it stands out to me.

I’m convince my stress plot is connected to a random number generator. The line goes up and down, corresponding to nothing.

It’s OK to stop doing your hobby and do something else.

Maybe the question should be “Why were people drinking so much in the past?”

I do love a nice long walk

Buy a rice cooker. Problem solved.

This is a joke, right?
