I would just remind you of the paradox of Buridan's ass https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buridan%27s_ass

"It refers to a hypothetical situation wherein an ass (donkey) that is equally hungry and thirsty is placed precisely midway between a stack of hay and a pail of water. Since the paradox assumes the donkey will always go to whichever is closer, it dies of both hunger and thirst since it cannot make any rational decision between the hay and water."

If you have many interests it is easy to not make any appreciable advancement in any of them. Rate your interests. Pick maybe 2 and work those until you are content with them or find out you dont really like them.

Besides the tools mentioned, what are some other AI tools that can be used to accelerate coding for established codebases? I have some money to try out new tools, but am wondering if there are that are less "black boxy" and would work with a company's private instance of Azure ChatGPT?

Have you tried googling or asking chat-gpt? That is what I do when I don't understand things.

It doesn't work because the state interfered. College is so expensive because of federally guaranteed loans. This means colleges can charge any price they want because the student has access to any sum of money.

Of course, there is nothing so invaluable in modern society than the life of a junkie.

I use SuperMemo https://super-memo.com/ for memorizing things. It uses spaced repetition. It has a bit of a learning curve, but once you figure it out, very effective. I feel like I have seen an article on HN about it before.

What do people think about during their runs? Anything over 30 minutes I find very mind numbing and boring.
