  • I'd love to hear them

  • Consistently working out, the routine and predictably of it is surprisingly good for the mental side. It has done wonders for my emotional regulation and actually learning to notice emotions in my body, kinda like mindfulness meditation. Under the barbell i am forced to focus on my body and how my body reacts and moves, even after working out. Figuring out how my body functions as i was never handed a manual to run it.Every time i bend over or squat down to pick something up, the weakened muscles remind themselves and once again force me to focus on my body making memmore aware of it or just flex, not for showing off reasons. Just for my own pleasure.

    Of course the physical side is an added benefit as well.

    It has become the highlight of my day and i am in a worse mood if i miss it or it gets disrupted, which is rare.

    Added benefit is that others are assuming I'm highly disciplined as well.

    Edit: dieting aspect as well. Fully tracking my calories and weighing food and myself and eating rather monotone meals up to the same meal every morning. Makes me look even more disciplined and health conscious.

    I'm just doing it for fun and i find it easier.

  • It's everywhere

  • During work or at workplace or sometimes even with colleagues, yeah sure. It's not reflective of the overall working experience, just this one particular aspect isn't enjoyable and as it's not that often, maybe once a day. So there's no point to even try to change it.

  • go on, pick your rule(s)

  • That's a good idea, would lower overall time it takes.

  • go on, pick your rule(s)

  • Sry, insufficient data. I need to see calorie content and macronutrient distribution and ingredients list, location on the shelf, shelfs location in the store, obviously stores location and finally price, before determining which to try out first.For a final choice, everything needs to be tried out to at least minimum viable sample size, n=30.

  • Besides gas and housing, what else makes you do a double take at how much it costs now?

  • That makes more sense. Thank you.

  • Besides gas and housing, what else makes you do a double take at how much it costs now?

  • I though those are the same brand? Mostly because every time i mention Lidl in online discourse people automatically switch over to using Aldi or every time there's a picture of some goods that for me are sold in Lidl, the description says Aldi.

  • How good are you at saying no?

  • Too good, that's literally my first response to everything and only then we can have a discourse on whatever to change that or not. Opposing everything is my default near autonomic response.

  • Besides gas and housing, what else makes you do a double take at how much it costs now?

  • Already said a lot, but should be said again. Food.

    Food, my weekly grocery bill has risen from ~80€ to ~130€ and I've started to limit and reduce snacks. Store is the same, amounts have gotten smaller, only difference is time. Few years ago when the first Lidl(Aldi) was opened and became the closest store to my home. Overall weekly bill never reached to triple digits, nowadays it never stays below that.

    And i bloody hate triple digit numbers, my heart weeps every time i need to pay it and think about quitting eating all together.

  • Besides gas and housing, what else makes you do a double take at how much it costs now?

  • And I quit when the price crossed 4€ mark, thinking thats way too expensive for it. Currently it's roughly around 6-7€ here.

  • Of course it isn't pleasant experience, but it really isn't supposed to be or at least that's a wrong place to look for good experiences.

  • It's everywhere

  • I'd say it's that pain receptors would be needed to feel pain, but thats just an engineering issue.

    Rather interesting perspective though, thank you for sharing it.

  • The Emperor Protects

  • [Microblog] @ask@piefed

  • Why would you tie your goals to arbitrary numbers in the first place? You should be constantly trying to improve yourself regardless of what time of the year it is.

  • It's everywhere

  • Why's that?

  • It's everywhere

  • I'll yield to your higher experience as my main experience has been just reiterating why the boss is right or why his ideas are great, for which LLMs fit perfectly.

  • Your Kids' School Bus Is About to Become a Roaming Surveillance Vehicle. A company that sells cameras to catch drivers illegally passing stopped school buses wants to turn them into license plate rea…

  • I completely agree with you and yes it's a constant struggle against drivers and politicians catering to them to get anything that's even remotely pedestrian friendly.

    The other person out of curiosity did ask the reasoning behind it and i can give one, even though it's from a positive perspective which isn't that accurate for the reason why those cameras have been implement. That doesn't mean that i support it, in every response iv said how those cameras have become the worst ways to control traffic, but i can't deny the beneficial effect of traffic cameras. Those do work, with a huge cost to privacy.I've just seen too many drivers slowing down to speed limit when a map says a traffic camera is coming up. Same on intersections, it reduces how many drivers try to slip over when it's "orange"(just turned red). Similar around police (excluding the corruption argument), people start to behave better. So imminent threat of a punishment does have a positive, even if limited, effect.

  • That does kinda lean on whatever current AI is even sentient. Currently general consensus does seem to be that LLMs aren't sentient. Those are just advanced text generators without any understanding of what it's saying or writing.

    By expanding upon your reasoning it would put under question whatever we can use any tools at all.

  • It's everywhere

  • Fair, yeah i agree it would hamper communication skills development, but even in a professional scenario? Where most of the communication already consists of fixed responses. Technically not even an LLM would be needed for it, just automated scripts and keywords, just a simple bot would already be enough.

    Or does even this almost automated communication have some underlying layers im missing?

    Though yeah while i might find basic day to day small talk kinda pointless, it does serve a purpose and using an LLM for it might be already pushing it.

  • It's everywhere

  • I'm not going to lie. In a professional scenario having LLM feed me responses would be really beneficial, it could even do some irrelevant small talk for me. That thing is significantly better than i am in it and most of this type of talk already consists of predetermined phrases.

    Feel free to point out flaws in it.
