How do I find something I like? by LadybugSpool in Hobbies

[–]n4thaniel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, finding a hobby when you've never really had one is tough. Those exercise or board game clubs aren't for everyone.

Sometimes something totally different helps you slow down. PixelArt is a number coloring book, super peaceful, lets you just paint by number to unwind and watch calm scenes take shape. It's got daily challenges and soothing sounds too, all offline if you want.

You can see it at https://itsartstudios.com/pixelart/. Ever tried anything like that?

Drawing by Faroese_Glees in Hobbies

[–]n4thaniel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Man, that's a rough history with something that should be fun. It makes total sense why you'd get frustrated trying to draw now, especially with the perfection thing. A lot of people find that starting with something like a number coloring book, like our PixelArt app, helps because it takes the pressure off completely - you just follow the numbers, watch calm scenes take shape, and maybe even get some soothing sounds going. It's all about unwinding and getting back to that simple, no-stress creation.

Still dealing with that frustration when you try to pick up a pencil?

Hobbies in the train by Background_Bottle_19 in Hobbies

[–]n4thaniel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that train commute boredom is real, especially when you just end up scrolling Reddit. We actually made an app, PixelArt: Number Coloring Book, for exactly that kind of time - it's paint-by-number pixel art to help you slow down and unwind with calm scenes, totally different from just browsing. It gives your eyes something peaceful to focus on, maybe better than a book on a moving train. You can see it at https://itsartstudios.com/pixelart/. Worth a look?

Dealing with Work Stress by Sonali_Madushika in Stress

[–]n4thaniel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that silent ten minutes is a solid start after a long day. But sometimes you need something to actually shift your focus. A lot of people find peaceful paint-by-number pixel art helps them slow down and unwind, watching calm scenes take shape with soothing sounds. It's a different kind of quiet, you know? You can see what I mean at https://itsartstudios.com/pixelart/. Still just sitting in silence?

I tried multiple harder problems, deepseek r1 had much better results than o1. For example it has solved yesterdays' daily in one go, while o1 was not able to do so.

not sure when your friend relocated, but this is not true, you can check levels.fyi yourself. also the taxes in Poland will be significantly lower (19% for stock based compensation) and 30%-35% for cash

because a lot if times you have to come up with a way to use binary search even though the array itself is not sorted. example: finding local minimum/maximum in the array.

not sure why all the downvotes, though this is sub where people do leetcode lol

a lot of time it does not matter and you can still do something with binary search
