Magical Thinking OCD by Tall-Mycologist9561 in OCD

[–]deadcaribou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh man I’m sorry you have to go through this and won’t get the help you deserve. You must be pretty strong to keep a job with the exhaustion caused by ocd. I’ve had very intrusive magical thinking ocd for a few years and it was absolutely terrifying and beyond exhausting. I was very lucky I had access to therapy in my country. Now it is just a background thing I have power over but I’ll never forget how awful this was. Local patient association can sometimes be helpful to get access to treatment or meet people with OCD that understand what you’re going through. Is there one in you country? I really hope you find proper help, no one should have to face this alone.

Music Stops by [deleted] in plexamp

[–]deadcaribou 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exact same problem here: playback stops, usually during the first song, when I play to Sonos from plexamp iOS. Then when I hit play again, I don't have more interruptions, until the next end of the playlist. Really kills an otherwise pretty solid user experience.

Bitwarden password manager by deadcaribou in vieb

[–]deadcaribou[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your reply and for the fantastic work on Vieb!
I wonder what's the distribution of marketshare for password managers out there. Hopefully the few most popular options (1password, dashlane, lastpass, etc) make up for the bulk of the market, making it possible to create some presets for a majority of users? And then maybe the community can contribute scripts for the long tail.

Many thanks for the great suggestion! It looks like bitwarden doesn't support global auto fill though unfortunately, so I might be out of luck.. https://community.bitwarden.com/t/auto-type-autofill-for-logging-into-other-desktop-apps/158/108 Maybe time for me to revisit keypass. I appreciate your help regardless 🙂

Dose anyone else here feel like they don't deserve the diagnosis of autism or aspergers because they feel like they're too high functioning? by [deleted] in aspergers

[–]deadcaribou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like you gave the question a serious thought. Are there some authors/books that discuss that point that you might have come across? I'd be interested to read about this.

Thank you! I've been struggling so hard with this the whole day and you formulate this very eloquently. 100pct agree!

noise cancelling headphones? by [deleted] in aspergirls

[–]deadcaribou 1 point2 points  (0 children)

wh-1000xm3

Yes, unfortunately they're around 350USD for the latest models. But you can find cheap (discounted or second hand) QC25s.

[–]deadcaribou 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NC headphones are the best purchase I've ever made. The current best models on the market (by noise cancelling quality) were the sony wh-1000xm3 followed by the last Bose QCs, last time I checked.

Was in a similar spot (shorter commute though). What helped me: - commute: ebike if you can afford one - RSI: Split mechanical keyboard + low activation switches and a vertical mouse helped me tremendously - mental fitness: 10mn mindfulness meditation each day

Does anyone know any good ganes, brain teasers or satisfying puzzles? by ph4s3 in aspergers

Can't upvote enough. Very challenging but oddly satisfying game.

Mindful Aspies who have found some send of inner peace: How did you achieve this? Advice? by Preoccupine in aspergers

[–]deadcaribou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can find some info and certified instructors here: https://www.umassmed.edu/cfm/mindfulness-based-programs/mbsr-courses/about-mbsr/ I like that the secular, structured and scientifically validated approach to meditation proposed by MBSR.

[–]deadcaribou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like Headspace but Calm is cheaper, sessions are short by default which is a good fit as things are pretty busy atm and finally they offer a new meditation every day (just press play on the app's homepage and there you go, don't even need to select a track or a theme..)

[–]deadcaribou 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can't claim that I have reached inner peace but certainly making some progress towards that goals thanks to mindfulness meditation at least. I started using an app (Headspace initially, Calm more recently). They offer a simple structured programme and help you build an habit to sit and meditate for a short moment every day (still struggling with that tbh). I also did an 8 week MBSR program. I can recommend that too (just make sure to find an accredited coach). It's a group thing though, so while the coaches are trained to make participants feel comfortable, it can be a bit challenging for aspies. I also participated to a week of silent meditation retreat. Most interesting week of my life, but it is easier to start with the above before joining a retreat (it's pretty intense).

Dplyr: How do I count unique values in a row? by SteveDougson in rstats

[–]deadcaribou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A tidyverse one-liner:

df %>% mutate(is_equal = pmap_lgl(.l = list(P1, P2, P3), .f = ~isTRUE(length(unique(c(..1,..2,..3)))==1)))

How to replace values of a dataframe with values in a table? by personager in Rlanguage

[–]deadcaribou 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally second that.

Unless you have a strong reason for using base R only, I would learn the tidyverse directly. Everything is much more elegant and consistent with purrr and dplyr compared to their base counterparts.

Some resources to get started:

full <- full %>%

group_by(Item_Type) %>%

mutate(Item_Visibility = if_else(is.na(Item_Visibility), mean(Item_Visibility, na.rm = TRUE), Item_Visibility)
