Getting some unplanned exercise clearing out the house of my late mother in law. Though my airways disagree (achoo), having clear goals and hauling around heavy stuff is doing wonders for my mood.
What’s helped me is a combination of physical exercise (which helps against feelings of unrest that may be bothering me) and sort of sliding into the subject, tackling the easier parts first and from there riding the dopamine wave.
Depending on how old your kid is, it might or it might not improve. The frontal lobe of their brain still has a lot of development left in children; right up until they’re about 25. This may improve things.
Also, please don’t be one of those parents who discounts meds. They can really help a lot. And no, they’re not addictive (in fact, people with ADHD are more likely to forget them than to use them recreationally).
One thing about the pre-Internet times I don’t hear much about is how much more centralised our media were and how, as a result, people or ideas on the fringe of society didn’t get much attention. That includes for instance how the strange ideas about vaccines or ethnic groups now spread much easier than they did before the Internet, but also how trans* people and other marginalised groups find it much easier to find and support each other and be a united front against oppression.
In summary, I don’t thing that what has been termed “the great awokening”, nor the organised opposition against it, could have taken place before the Internet. At least not at this scale.
How much progress have you made since last time? What new ideas have you stumbled upon, what old ideas have you abandoned? What new projects have you started? What are you working on?...
I’m working on a PDP-11 emulator. I’ve got the basic instruction set implemented and have an implementation of ODT (the PDP-11’s microcode monitor) with disassembler. I’ve found a test set and an implementation of BASIC for the PDP-11, and everything executes successfully. Next step is getting the MMU up and running.
It just so happened to be the canonical source for this piece of information. And it wasn’t being run by an antisemite at the time the linked tweet was being written.
Vooralsnog boeren rechtse partijen echter goed bij het wegzetten van klimaatpolitiek als ware het een linkse hobby. Het is nog net niet dat de linkse politiek er op reageert door zachtjes “ja, is eigenlijk ook wel zo” te zeggen, maar het zit er niet ver van af.
Terwijl ik niemand openlijk het argument zie maken dat je door jezelf afhankelijk te maken van fossiele brandstoffen jezelf eigenlijk afhankelijk maakt van de politiek van moslimlanden (of erger). Geen stukjesschrijver waagt zich er aan, de media houdt zich afzijdig, zelfs rechtse polemisten doen niets liever dan de Nederlandse burger aan de Saoedische oliepijp laten lurken.
Noot: ik stem linkser dan zo’n 95% van de NL’ers; bovenstaande is bedoeld om te laten zien hoe de rechtse standpunten rondom fossiele brandstoffen totaal niet passen bij hetgeen deze partijen verder uitdragen.
