rswskg··on Ask HN: Dealing with ADHD Without Medication?
With the pills, I don't take them at the weekend. This stops me working too hard and I carry out manual work/exercise instead. This gives me a buffer. Also tell them you lost them and get a months buffer. Now the worries about that go away.

rswskg··on Steve Wozniak used to tip from printed sheets of $2 bills
For a period I was withdrawing 5k cash weekly. I was required to wait for 20 minutes each time and give a reason why. I settled on 'money fight' as it seemed to upset them the most.

'too many scam items, like shopping at some flea market. reviews unreliable.'

Might even be intentional. You are essentially pushed into buying amazon basics where you can to save the research time.

Not sure it's moved any closer since then.

Same. I've had two oxford graduates completely crumble in interviews recently who then dared bring it up after flunking the test. That they both did it says alot to me.
rswskg··on Which programming paradigm had the most impact on you as an engineer and why?
TDD. It gave me a framework to write easier to understand code and solved my verification issues. Not sure I would still be a coder if it wasn't for that.
