As somebody who has ADHD quite severely, I have never once in my life got distracted in the middle of a conversation. That’s not how it works, and I’m so goddamn sick of people making jokes like this about it.
Everybody with ADHD is slightly different, but for me it’s more of a disconnect between future rewards and present internal motivation. It’s not an issue when I’m talking to somebody – – that shit is all in the present and I thrive in the moment.
What I can’t do well at all is make my brain feel like a task is important, rewarding and worth doing if that reward will come far in the future.
I'm a lifelong sufferer myself, and so I like to jest.... forgive me
What you say makes sense and matches the neurology. I find that maintaining my dopamine levels can be a challenge, and on the extreme end, definitely associated with fatigue severe enough to lose track in the middle of a conversation.
Problems with the reward system and executive function are definitely part of the spectrum though! I identify with the symptoms you describe.
Today I'm on wellbutrin for the first time, and Im finding it more effective than amphetamines, despite perhaps an increase in social awkwardness. YMMV
Monolog and Doctrine should be properly detected. After that, we need to match detected dependencies with fundraising strategies (today Open Collective, in the future Patreon and others). Maybe this is why they're not appearing in the "Projects Requiring Funding" section. Feel free to submit an issue on GitHub and we can look at that in details.
And the general, consistent feeling of well-being and attentiveness is seductive - it makes you feel like it'll always be there, without any maintenance.
If you look at the places where people live longest they are not health nuts especially and have quite a nice lifestyle. eg
>Ikaria, Greece, three times more likely to reach 90 than Americans, almost no dementia
>residents stay active through walking, farming and fishing, but they also make sure to take time out to nap and socialize. In addition to their Mediterranean diet, they eat a lot of wild greens and drink an herbal tea that’s full of nutrients. Their community lifestyle also encourages good health habits and regular social engagement.
It could definitely be clearer, but if you click on the name of the operating systems on that page, they'll produce a little dialog that tells you how to run Cockpit.
Was just discussing this elsewhere online. Package management is broken (or incomplete, depending on your viewpoint). What's needed IMO is the following:
1. Allow a single package file, including multiple clauses (or sub-files, whatever) for different languages. Let me manage my Angular front-end and Flask back-end in the same file. A single CLI tool as well - Composer and Bower aren't all that different.
2. Be the trusted broker, with e.g. MD5 checking, virus scanning, some kind of certification/badging/web of trust thing. Let developers know if it's listed, it's been vetted in some way.
3. Allow client-side caching, but also act as a cache/proxy fetch for package retrieval. That way, if Github or source site is down, the Internet doesn't come to a screeching halt. I see the value of Satis, but it's a whole additional tool to solve just one part of this one problem.
4. Server-side dependency solver. Cache the requests and give instant answers for similar requests. All sorts of value-adds in analytics here, made more valuable by crossing language boundaries.
5. Act as an advocate for good semver, as part of the vetting above.
NOTE: These features are not all-or-nothing, I believe there's value from implementing each one on its own. Also note that nothing here should lock people into one provider for these services. There's a market to be made here.
Hell, I feel like it gives me ADHD just listening.
