Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 @Phijkchu_Pikachu you inspired me
I cut mine into fry shapes or cut them into chips, so this is not inspired by me
inspired by you and Polu then
no, I'm not buying that shit lol
unless you'are about to tell me there was a funny pricing error
and you now own 100% of dropshipped branded cables
I think I have more A-to-C than I do C-to-C
even though having an A end negates all benefit of it being a C cable pretty much
we've fucked ourselves on Type-C btw
we managed to make a reversable connector, that's small enough for phones, but just big enough that it doesn't feel like it's constantly going to break when you stick it in
but we couldn't control ourselves, and there are 10+ different standards on that same interface
which cannot operate together, and are almost anti-forward-compatible
cool!
what did you see while you were over there?
Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 cool!
This is not a spooky response what happened to spooky
no i think it is a spooky response
Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 what did you see while you were over there?
mostly the airport, had long layover but didnt really go anywhere. we were extremly sleepy, only had 4 hours of sleep during our overnightish flight
that's what makes it a spooky response rusp
Pika, Leg, and Kribbles might appreciate this guy
the charts are kinda whatever
the writeup is insane though
I like that he calculates the probability he is working every 5 minutes of the day
that is an awesome metric if you are going to do something like this
dw Leg, he took 2 whole days off this year
(which includes weekends)
I like that B's were yellow
wait no sorry
A-'s were yellow
Bs are red
I'll get some hate from this, because I know people who they really worked for
But I cannot stand pomodoro timers
if having these very rigid work blocks works for you, great, but it's the antithesis of how I work
You can't rely on being fully fueled by inspiration striking you, but I find that the more I estimate and chunk time, the less productive I end up being
I follow the vibes based work flow
of if I need to do something I panic and do it, if I do not need to do something immediately, I work if I am motivated
I start more projects/tasks than I can reasonably complete, and then make future me solve it
I shoot for the stars and crash land on venus usually
I just let all my spinning plates drop and see which one causes issue
I think the pomodoro method could work for me if I had artistic/creative things I was doing
having set pause/evaluation built in to limit infinite refinement might? be useful
But I don't really do creative, unbounded stuff
My pause/break timer is "am I tilted enough at my math that I want to stop"
its a built in feature
I never really got good at forcing myself to work without a reason/deadline
and then my downfall was becoming too aware of the arbitrary nature for most of those
I'm productive, but not focused, and needing to be explicitly productive on one thing for no reason is -vibes for sure
you do it
kind of an off topic poll
