I also use Graphite and previously learned colemak-dh. I love it. I wouldn’t necessarily recommend it to others because it’s harder to install on Windows and Linux. Also, the symbol placement takes a while to get used to. The best time to switch if you’re courageous enough is after obtaining a split keyboard and during the holidays when you’ll have the spare time to learn a new layout.

I’m curious to know: what are some of the things that need to be set up? Specific bank accounts to route money around?

What about their plexamp app for streaming music? It looks pretty nice and seems like a good deal if you purchase the lifetime plan for 50% off during Black Friday.

It’s sad but true. What I like to do is use the credits I earn from choosing slower Amazon deliveries to purchase single songs on Amazon music. Sometimes I don’t even download the song.

Neat! Can you stream navidrome to a smart TV? I have speakers connected to them and I usually stream to it using airplay on iOS.

Very interesting! How much did it cost you?

Was his title lead developer who typically helps out a team with any blockers, or was he a lone iOS dev outputting as much work as 5 people? I wonder what a dev with ADHD can do to stand out when they are just beginning a career in tech. I know that working on difficult tickets that nobody else wants to touch can help because you can keep shifting focus to something new, like you mentioned.

When I start to dislike opening up Anki, it’s usually because my cards are too complex and take too much time to memorize. Creating multiple cards with single cloze words makes the process much more enjoyable. Anki has helped me so much with memorizing programming language syntax for example.

Yeah, prioritizing tasks is also part of the problem for me. I use the TickTick app to save my tasks and it has a feature called the Eisenhower Matrix, which allows me to prioritize my tasks in a visual way like a kanban board. Sometimes that's not enough. Keeping to a schedule to form a habit is also a challenge, so I prepend a number to the most important tasks and set up reminders for them. Once I have the big tasks laid out in the app, I revert to old school pen and paper to break the tasks down into smaller parts because it's faster and reduces friction.

Maybe that sounds like overkill, but I've found that having a system for writing down tasks, prioritizing them, and creating a daily schedule/habit are all equally important for people with ADHD.

I'm fascinated by this idea. Do you have any books or resources you'd recommend that dives into the topic of energy?

I've found two interesting books so far: - Oil: A Beginner's Guide by Vaclav Smil - Energy and Civilization: A History by Vaclav Smil

I've always been curious about synths and how they are programmed. I'm a JS dev learning Rust and was having ideas about building my own synth. Is Max4Live a good choice for building audio plugins in 2023? Also, is Rust a viable option for creating VST plugins?

Thanks for sharing this. The Solaria AI video you linked to is impressive. Some of my favorite EDM tracks have guest vocals in them. As an electronic music producer and a terrible singer, it's mind blowing to think you can now produce an instrumental beat and attach realistic sounding AI generated vocals to it.

IIRC Paul McCartney grew up listening to his father play pop tunes in a room full of guests and family members. It was a rich musical environment. As Paul got older, he started playing pop songs for the guests just like his father. It's interesting to learn that this was a common social activity back then.
