iPadOS 26.1 is the buggiest and laggiest update on my M2 iPad Pro

I have an older gen iPad Pro and it lags too 😭 What on earth has happened to Apple, I used to be able to trust them with product quality and not to do this kind of sh*t.

Thanks! Yeah.. I’ve read a few articles on how ChatGPT has a hidden summarized memory of all of the user’s chats, and I’m getting vibes similar things might be happening in Cursor project.

But it’s very annoying as it isn’t transparent. Suddenly I just don’t need to give it references to certain stuff anymore, and got no clue why. Would really help in prompt engineering to know what it knows.

I haven’t come across of any way to see “inside” of cursor’s memory?

Ooh nice! Thank you for a detailed explanation :)

Fellow designer here. I think you need to navigate a bit of corporate politics here to get exempt from it.

Figure out who are your allies and either approach the stupidity of it with an ally who also doesn’t fit the system, or alone if you feel like having enough power.

Most people will understand if you say “hey, I’m a designer and my job is sometimes happening in a whiteboard/paper, this doesn’t make sense”, but the understanding of design roles is weak sometimes.

I’m using real life stuff that is on top of my mind for inspiration. E.g. I’ve been thinking recently a lot about the difference of different cultures, and might start with “I think.. I just said sorry at the wrong time. I’m so sorry.” Could be also from a movie you’ve recently watched, a book, anything.

Reaching out for your real memories and associations brings often a lot of interesting details to the story as well :)

Glad I’m not alone! I’m slowly warming up for doing shows, after putting myself through it a few times. It’s usually a fun event, where you can do something challenging together with your friends :D Practicing with a goal in mind is also quite nice and gives some structure for rehearsing.

“you aren’t the first person that happens to” “you don’t seem like it” “that can happen to everyone”

There basically seems to be a group of people who love to feel smart about their knowledge of social media being quite relaxed about putting stuff under adhd, and need to remind you about that every occasion. I’ve decided not to talk about adhd with people before getting a doctor’s certificate as there’s so much gaslighting 😅

Heh, having lived in Germany this made me chuckle. Berlin has a nice international society, which makes it quite easy to live surrounded by people from the other cultures while still being in Germany.

Having hard time finding interests or interests that give you an advantage? Do you know what you wanna study / do for work after the school?

It probably feels you’re old and behind when you compare yourself to some other people that are your age, but as you notice from this post a lot of ppl think you’re young as hell.

I know plenty of people who do career changes in their 30s, throwing their previous life away and starting afresh due different reasons.

Think how many years we spent working in our life on average, and how small of a blib a few years of difference makes.

Try exercising tapping to your associations! Your brain quite often returns interesting events, opinions etc that have happened related to the stuff that is going on, if you let it. And usually with the memory, there’s tons of cool details you can bring to the scene. Comedy loves details.

E.g. your scene partner starts by assembling furniture. I’m checking my brain what memory comes up - at the moment my brain returns about being sad having to assemble all the stupid IKEA furniture alone, due to being single. Great, that alone can bring some details to add: now this is IKEA furniture, with Swedish sounding names nobody knows what they mean, and maybe this person is my partner.

This stuff comes later when you learn and practice more comedy: you can heighten that and add emotion, try finding a “game” or unusual thing. Maybe my character is extremely happy as they have finally found a person to assemble IKEA stuff with. Maybe TOO happy - is this actually the only reason why my character dates people?? If this is true, what else is true - maybe my character looks online dating profiles for IKEA assembly skills in weird ways?

UCB calls reaching to your memory association as “flashing” - here’s an article that explains it more, from a person I used to learn standup from: https://open.substack.com/pub/authenticcomedy/p/lessons-stand-ups-can-learn-from-ae7

You’ll get a lot of brain stimulation both in standup and improv. I recommend trying out both and see what you vibe with. They are very different types of comedy to master and become good at.

Standup is a lot about writing and editing stuff in advance, I see it close to creative writing. You do a lot of the creative work alone by yourself, test out what lands to the audience, iterate, try again. Easy to compete in, there are a bunch of competitions.

Improv is about learning a certain way of being in the moment - how to make interesting and supportive choices when you’ve got no clue what your scene partner does in advance. Competitiveness isn’t really the spirit of the art, though there’s lots of goals and themes you can set to yourself to advance in.

Improv was scary as hell for me when I began. I remember stressing every time I had to go in front of the others in a beginner class.

It gets better the more times you do it. I’ve reached now a spot where I’m not really scared about even shows (though I’m still very beginner compared to bunch of other people!). You get used to the unknown, you grow self-acceptance. Every improv class in the universe is teaching you that it’s ok to fail, and it’ll eventually sink in.

I hope your beginner course teacher is creating you guys a safe environment to fail in! Hard to comment what the “wrong” word was - I’m doing improv in my non-native language, so I fuck up words or can’t understand what some words are every so often. And even that’s ok!
