celim307··on The Mac keeps growing in shipments while PC shipments are falling
OS X has its flaws and with apples recent move toward services it’s getting worse, but goddamn I can’t believe how bad the user experience windows 10/11 is, with nagging notifications at every turn, ads treated as first class citizens, constant urging for me to sign up for this Microsoft saas service…I just don’t feel respected as a user so why would I use it
celim307··on Ask HN: What's Your Biggest Regret?
You gotta keep trying. Also could be you’re in the midst of a social circle that isn’t empathetic or just doesn’t click. I had to move and explore until I found people I connected with
celim307··on Ask HN: What's Your Biggest Regret?
Just chiming in to say how proud I am of you, as I’m went and still going though something similar. Its scary and hard and you get burned a lot but I wouldn’t trade the friends I made and the relationships I’ve invested in since becoming more in touch and open, including my family, are my absolute proudest accomplishments

I am of the opinion that people who have gone though this are more empathetic caring people

celim307··on Ask HN: What's Your Biggest Regret?
It’s never too late. I consider myself very isolated and introverted, but over the years collected a small circle of friends who accept me for who I am and also have gone through similar things. I have an old coworker, a couple of friends from the gym, and someone I met at 35 that may become my best friend. I ask I don’t say this to brag but that just because you missed out before does not mean you have to stay lonely.

Just be open, put yourself out there, be polite to everyone but respect your own boundaries, and don’t take it personally if things don’t pan out right away. A lot of my close relationships are ones that were background characters for a long time too , but randomly we were brought back together. There’s no template to life and it’s poison to compare yourself to others. Just start taking control of what you want your life to be like and I promise it is a skill like anything else, you just gotta practice even if you fall

celim307··on Why adults still dream about school
Yeah, and all the advice we get is lagged by 10-20 years. Parents are pretty far removed from the reality of entry level job markets and changes in industries
celim307··on Ask HN: What are some of the best documentaries you've seen?
It’s about a young professional working in the mail to order music business

Target shoots first

Nothing huge at stake, but a good slice of life

celim307··on Every action you take is a vote for the type of person you wish to become
“Strong opinions held weakly” apply here too. Work hard, but constantly check in with yourself and ask if your current goals still make sense and feel good.

I made a lot of ideals and goals when I was younger and didn’t know myself or the world, and it caused me to chase things that ultimately didn’t bring my happiness.

I’m much better now loving my harmless, wierd, silly bits, and working on improving the prickly bits that hurt others around me and myself, but I’m still learning what those all are and that’s ok. That’s growth.

celim307··on US Mortgage Lenders Are Starting to Go Broke
Are they sold Pennies on the dollar? Can I buy my own mortgage or is it bundled
celim307··on Ask HN: What are examples of activities/bets with asymmetric upside?
Biggest regret was taking a hedge fund job and liquidating my 5k$ of amd because I didn’t want to deal with the paperwork
celim307··on CEO posts crying selfie on LinkedIn after laying off employees
Lmao @ the guy saying he applauds ceos bringing their whole and authentic selves to work. I cannot imagine he would say the same thing for employees, who are told to stfu and do their job
celim307··on Why aren't smart people happier?
Seems a big egotistical to me

I used to have this worldview then I realized “smarter” people self select lives that tend to be more neurotic and tend to overthink things to the point of anxiety

Do you really need to worry over all the things you do? Or have all the years of being schooled and trained and under pressure to constantly juggle multiple things made your brain’s default state anxiety?

celim307··on Ask HN: What websites simply make you happy to visit?
I love this.
celim307··on In esports media, layoff season is in full swing
Play turbo mode. It’s all I play and it’s super casual and fast paced
celim307··on Tell HN: Upwork has an impersonation problem
I adamantly am a camera off person but am shame to admit I do add my photo to resume, it really did make responses from companies night and day
celim307··on The new wave of React state management
React query is one of the highest quality react libraries I’ve ever used
celim307··on Job interview questions engineers should ask, but don't
Just cause you wanna work in startups doesn’t mean you don’t want to any filtering lol
celim307··on Reddit acquires ML startup Spell
I thought the whole appeal of Reddit was community moderation and escape from algorithms.
celim307··on Uber Eats Nationwide Shipping
Which is wild cause I lived in both and while ezelles is good, there’s tons of just as good places in Chicago
celim307··on Ask HN: Best alternative jobs for “outdated” skills with small websites/apps?
Where did you climb? Did you follow the seasons or stick to one area? I’ve been doing the same off and on and found van lifing to be fun but lonely, even when traveling with a partner.
celim307··on iPadOS 16
For someone like me who travels and digital nomads, the 14” MacBook Pro is perfect. iPad is definitely not in my interests but while I definitely can be more productive with more displays, I surprised myself how quickly I got used to using just the MacBook screen.
celim307··on Is social audio already dead?
It’s a good filter for me to single out narcissists.

Everyone wants to be a cult leader

celim307··on LSD microdosing does not appear to improve mood or cognitive ability: study
10-15 (lost the rest of the sheet)

I definitely was outside my body but maybe what I call ego death isn’t as intense as a full blown trip?

celim307··on LSD microdosing does not appear to improve mood or cognitive ability: study
Is 10 not the standard? That’s the only tab dosage I’ve seen, granted I’m not super experienced. This has been true from dark web tabs and local plugs in USA and Mexico

I do not dose often. I’ve done lsd 5 times total

celim307··on LSD microdosing does not appear to improve mood or cognitive ability: study
1-5 tabs gets me a warm fuzzy body high, increased sociability and energy, while still retaining my sense of self and able to function amongst the sober.

I do like having full blown ego death once in a while but just as much I like to just take the edge off at a music fest and not have a bad trip

celim307··on In a small trial, drugs seemed to rejuvenate the body’s ‘epigenetic clock’ (2019)
If my quality of life remains high and I can still choose to end things when I want, I don’t see an issue. Then again there’s probably psychological cost and I may end up a sociopath
celim307··on Executive narcissism affects knowledge transfer among business units
Chill dude it’s Friday. Touch some grass
celim307··on Classified specs leaked on War Thunder forum for third time
Don’t underestimate the butthurt of a nerd trying to win an online argument. I think for one of the challenger leaks the dude was trying to win a stupid forum argument
celim307··on Solar-powered desalination device wins MIT $100K competition
That’s a looooooot of salt, way more than you’re ever gonna use up through food, and it’s heavy. And corrosive.
