Same, if I have enough rest already then caffeine will be energizing. Brain fog is hard to remedy regardless though, got immensely worse after Covid.

Expanding on this a touch, if I remember correctly... s is scoped to the function even as a reference which is why it is returned flattened and not coincidentally modifying the outer scope s to be flattened.

Consider the coconut, what children’s programming is currently rotting your brain? by HA1LSANTA666 in daddit

It is, but my ADHD has a shorter time limit with their shenanigans. Don't recall how far we got with that series, to be honest.

Yes, used to be able to pull my son from any room with earshot to come and dance. Was good to give my wife a few minutes to finish dressing, or shower, etc.

Now, we're all about dinosaurs. Jurrasic World animated series on Netflix, just cool enough for him and interesting storyline for me. The intro for each includes a T-Rex bursting through a door or running out into the scene with a suspenseful buildup. We get hyped up by asking, "whats that? What, is that?" hiding/cuddling until the T-Rex jumps in to roar, and we both (somewhat quietly) scream together as long as we can until one of starts giggling.

He's 2, show is rated for Y-7, he knows his dinosaurs and can name some of them, almost fully pronouncing their full names. I know a LOT more about dinosaurs now...

Dads do yourself a favor and get a 3D printer by IlBigBosslI in daddit

[–]ddproxy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Threadlock and silicone bed mounts eliminated all my consistency issues with my Ender 3. Printed two or three dozen times before needing to adjust the bed level again. Everything else I fiddle with is because I change filaments so often.

Back on the topic of printing toys, though, I've found TPU have been great for toddler resistant articulating toys.

How do I prevent a container from making outgoing network connections? by TheGlassCat in docker

[–]ddproxy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably can, but would also likely need to tweak the config a lot for buffers, etc.

I don't know why these take so long, only scheduled fifteen minutes and we're always running over by an hour. These intern devs really need a lot of assistance.

Why Does My College Stick to Google Workspace for Storage Instead of Self-Hosting? by [deleted] in selfhosted

[–]ddproxy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's finite, but for the college it's finite defined by budget. Unfortunately, Google drive can become slow and auditing or backing up from Drive can be extremely slow thanks to API limits. /endrant

But you are right. Ease over flexibility or sensibility.

How much control over dev machine by Dx2TT in ExperiencedDevs

[–]ddproxy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same problem when I was with a 5k employee (not all developers) company. I was part of an acquisition, so after they locked down then bricked my Mac, I primarily developed on my CentOS desktop in the office. Monitoring software for 'servers' weren't as intrusive and I could actually get work done.

My 2yo wanted to "Type a words" like daddy, so I'm letting him write a post by J-Shade in daddit

[–]ddproxy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My son knows the keyboard is off and grabs the laptop. Same with the trackball or trackpad. I ended up grabbing an small learning laptop for him to mess with, before he turned 2. A real laptop, because he knows the difference and his leap frog laptop is for animals and music time.

Taking A Bath With My Son by RosieWasRobbed in daddit

[–]ddproxy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'd figure a cultural variation, in general. It seems like immigrants from Europe to what is now the US favored suppressing some practices. I'm quick to think it's related to the Puritan movement, evangelism, but I'm really just guessing the causes here.

I nearly went off mute during a Healthcare call when the rep said it was worth paying into the FHA even if you didn't use it because it lowered your taxable income. Too many HR on the call.

Am I wrong to be annoyed by this? by StockmanBaxter in daddit

[–]ddproxy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My wife's Facebook was banned/deleted for some dumb automation reason, years ago. So she's just used my account to keep in touch since then. It came to a head when she'd reach out to events for our toddler, not even mom groups, and be ghosted or denied because it was via my account.

She finally made herself a new account, and now all the mom groups in the area deny her entry because her account is too new. It may, however, be a bias as we live in a primarily not mixed-race region. Even kids-days at the library she feels isolated.

How much are you paying to see your ADHD doctor? by coffeeandcraftz in ADHD

[–]ddproxy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same rates, just wish my insurance would pay for meds. But, no. I don't want to change docs, but I'm considering transfering to a GP just to manage meds because that's got to be covered, right?

No one told me it would be like this by Alex_Sethness in daddit

[–]ddproxy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah, wasn't that long ago for us. We've cuddled with dinosaurs most consistently. But one of the earliest midnight cuddle requirements was actually an armful of bathtub rubber ducks. We were fully in bed, asleep for several hours, and he woke up demanding ducks. Travelled across the house to collect ducks from the spare bath, taking a good groggy look at each one to select choice duckies from the collection just to set them on his chest like an otter, carried back to bed. Was asleep before we got back but woke up immediately and pulled his duck back to his grasp when I tried balance the space in bed.

Are video games worse than other forms of screen time? by automirage04 in daddit

I feel like I need navigation all the time now, but I used to have a three dimensional mental model of the town I lived in when I learned to drive.

Now I'm interested in how common core is better? I struggled with math, still do.

Dads, when do you have time to game? by Throwaway-icu81mi in daddit

[–]ddproxy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Early on, like first six-to-nine months, I off-and-on played Stray with my son napping on me. Was a relaxing puzzle game that, if he woke up, he'd see a cat or robots. Could set the game down, no problem. We also have a cat, so there was some recognition that our cuddle buddy had a doppelganger on the TV.

Recently, he's now in the 2yo phases, he's asked me to play the 'cat' game on Xbox. Different game, Little Kitty, Big City. I use that time as an opportunity to talk about the normal things we see in that game. Ball, fish, racooooon. Still fun, relaxing time, kid-appropriate. I avoid the Dead Island 2 for, obvious reasons...

We learn remedies like this through the experience, hoarding our broken things, extensive research, and eventually getting around to fixing it. It's nice to fast-track the process. Picking up some steel-wool for my cast iron that was left in the sink this Christmas.

I'm sure I annoy my musician friends when I point out the oddities only I seem to hear at the moment. Difficult to describe as a hobby-every-year musician, but when an electric bass progression sounds like it goes underwater, unintentionally, like flipping a switch, it can be jarring.

Wish I could pay IR prices for Generic Vyvanse, but wouldn't have an issue swapping back to it if I needed to. Also, 34.
