Jokes aside.
It really is exhausting to always seek for knowledge.
I think everybody needs a little bit of silence in his head once in a while.
As a wise man once said, “Sometimes I sits and thinks, and sometimes I just sits.”
Not so easy with an ADHD fizzy-brain.
Classic meditation method: don’t block any thoughts, just accept any thought that pops up, and visualise it floating away. Usually does the trick for me.
Or visualize a water flow like a river streaming through your mind, taking all the thoughts with it.
There are lots of visualisations you can do to help clear your mind or control your emotions.
I’ll get back to trying this holiday probs.
I know it’s not universal but mindfulness meditation can help
Yeah. I keep forgetting to do it. I used to get retarded drunk and that slowed my brain down but I’m not allowed to do that anymore.
That’s what being bored is for! We need to be bored sometimes.
You’re allowed to have fun sometimes, as a treat
True now tell me how to do that.
i fill that void with memes
As someone with ADHD with severe hyperfocus, I feel you. Just once I want to think about nothing. Even with meds, it only helps me defocus. Doesn’t stop the thinking.

I honestly don’t know what that silence would be like. I’ve spent my programming career jumping between domains, becoming an expert then moving on to find a new challenge. Now I’m building AI stuff for medicine.
In my down time I learn languages, watch videos about physics and math, and play puzzle games.
My brain actually won’t let me stop. Boredom = pain.
The edge to overoptimize yourself is very close and thats even more a hassle when hobbies become hustles and the brain doesnt distinguish anymore between work and hobby and freetime and me time.
Its a spiral which can lead fast to burnout or other related stuff.
Kudos to you that you made it this far and successfull in a challenging field.
instead of math problems you can do programming problems
That’s just math problems with extra steps…
Or as I like to think of it: with better naming schemes
You haven’t seen my code.
I just want to be able to use the full Unicode space for my variable names. That way no variable will ever need to be more than one character. The dream.
Try JS - you can name all of your variables
x
with varying numbers of zero-width joiners after them.How to make code review hate you 101
Simple: remove code review
I have paid for the whole character table so I will use the whole character table

The joke is the R-slur for those at the back.

I think that was a Calvin and Hobbes joke, wasn’t it?
Yes, two in the same week iirc. “I’m not playing with a full deck of cards” and “I’ve lost my marbles.”
