Likely Chron's. Yes, please proceed. But make some effort at being tactful about it, just so the information will be received and faster. This could be life changing for them.

IF YOU CAN UNDERSTAND THAT ALL CAPS IS SHOUTY, then it is easy to follow that all lower is a whisper, informal, casual way to talk. there are people who dislike all caps, i do too. i feel even capitalizing the first part of nouns and such grammar is shouty. yup. different people have different sensitivities for different things. i always liked all lower, also picked it from python_programming for a decade. so i am happy for this trend.

"someone you're not suuuper comfortable with"

It swings both ways for me. Either super comfortable or uncomfortable.

What doesn't work is hiring a virtual assistant to hold me accountable. As soon as I pay them and they report to me, they are the same loop as my own brain. No empathy brain! :D. This is bleak I know.

The only thing that reliably works is co-working with another human.

This is hard to find and not always possible. The reason it works is that it triggers the "empathy brain," which transfers the importance of the person to the importance of the task. Having an invested person always at your command is impossible, and an AI robot simply doesn't trigger that same empathy. It costs three cents per interaction. It is a robot. It isn't important, no matter how advanced it is.

There is something fascinating yet defeating about how the ADHD brain craves human connection. Just as loneliness can’t be solved by an app, ADHD cannot be "app-ed" out. I have found that these systems can lighten the cognitive load, but that is their limit.

I have a vibed chief-of-staff personal system. It knows everything and it neatly mapped out my state and day. I even know the first simple task I need to do because a prompt organized it for me on another page. Yet, I would still rather write this comment here. You already know this at some level, too.

You should be able to identify badfaith because your life depends on it. Otherwise you will drown in a pit of bothsides. Bad way to go.

Next we should hear from the counter party is from a court filing. Not here. This is well past having a chill chat on hackernews.

There are two kinds of bugs: the rare, tricky race conditions and the everyday “oh shucks” ones. The rare ones show up maybe 1% of the time—they demand a debugger, careful tracing, and detective work. The “oh shucks” kind where I am half sure what it is when I see the shape of the exception message from across the room - that is all the rest of the time. A simple print statement usually does the trick for this kind.

Leave us be. We know what we’re doing.

"The combination of numerous dialects and a formal/informal continuum is pretty much unique to Arabic and gives rise to fascinating situations watching Arabs calibrate their language based on the situation and the linguistic background of their interlocutor."

Nope, not unique.

Tamil (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tamil_language) is the same way. I am a native tamil speaker.
