i'd pay way more than 100k for a tinnitus cure. it would be worth significantly delaying retirement for. but there's nothing on the horizon. and yes, i have adapted to it well enough that it doesn't cause me anxiety and don't notice it 98% of the time. i just miss pure hearing.

the obvious use case is to use facial expression detection to track how much attention people are paying to advertisements

Is there a good grid control (ie a data grid) for Blazor? A colleague reviewed the offering from Infragistics and it wasn't anywhere near their WPF data grid control.

I think that's valid and I want that possibility for everyone. I don't want it linked to work, though.

I don't want "mental health support" from work. I only need that if my workplace is causing serious mental health issues in the first place. (Which it is at present.)

a small gripe about the otherwise excellent writing:

> at that point high standards are not merely useless but positively harmful. There are a few people who start too many new projects, but far more, I suspect, who are deterred by fear of failure from starting projects that would have succeeded if they had.

I think this buries the lede a bit. And "success" isn't a good measure, when the important thing many times is self-development or even just the skating feeling.

i found this very interesting.

we have a homegrown push-based streaming library in .net based on reactive (it supports indexed joins of "tables") and we're looking for something more infrastructural as we move to the cloud.

i think no, it's not "not in my mind but in my body".

my take is that anxiety occurs first by warping a person's attention, and the mental and physical symptoms of that follow.

I'd love to use this while teaching my kid how to program. That goes better if we both have access to the same screen. We tried repl.it but it's too wonky (cursor doesn't quite stay synchronized etc) - I think repl.it tries to do too much and ends up not so great. I could use coscreen with vs code. We're a linux household though - we'll be waiting.

our team (C#) did an extended proof of concept in F# about ten years ago. we found that it was easier to hero-code in F# but harder to work as a team over time in F#. we ended up embracing a lot of the functional paradigm in C#, which seems like a very good compromise.

I found a conceptual way to do manage my mental workflow that really does seem to help. I don't really know how to phrase the details, but I started thinking of my brain as an information processing system - in the absence of bugs, throughput depends on managing caches, threads/concurrency, and queues. if you think about your brain that way, you can kind of sense where there are issues with these three things as you think through problems.
