Have you ever heard of Nix, direnv, Lorri, flakes, devShell etc.? Aren't containers overkill for most dev activities?

We name them as one (autism), but try to treat each as what it is specifically

orange.be doesn't work on Firefox. The support will tell you to use Chrome or Edge.

Only the porn industry can answer that question.

For maths, it's also wrong most of the time. Generated stuff looks right, then let Opus audit and see the disaster.

DS4 is usable iff you have a way to test the generated stuff, and to convince yourself that its production is right. With successive review-fix rounds, it's obviously way more reliable too, but that can't compensate for it's lack of rigor when reasoning. It's very smart but neither rigorous nor careful. And that is a direct result of its architecture.

So if I regularly sleep at different hours, is it OK?

Fix your ADHD. It certainly comes with constant fatigue. It becomes clear that ADHD, like autism, is related to a lack of energy for the brain, and disappears when enough energy is available. If you feel too tired to focus, if you think you might need to sleep more than others, have the need for naps and so on, go consult a sleep clinic, get tested for all kinds of conditions, and find and fix the root cause. Ritalin won't fix the root cause and depending on how tired you are, will rather deplete your energy levels than improve your status in the long run. Ritalin gives you an illusion, not a remedy. Causes of fatigue can be a chronic inflammatory state, some immune reactions triggered too often...

Do you have allergies? Rashes when you eat some food? Trembling hands? Some skin problems? Hearing loss or tinnitus? Are you abnormally tired after sports? Do you have abnormal cramps after sports or drinking alcohol, or when not sleeping enough? Regular teeth health issues? Do you have a sensitive vague nerve? Did you faint more than other people in the course of your life? Does your body need more time to heal? Do you feel dizziness when standing up? Have you always had the impression that you actually aren't that stable on your feet, even while actually practising a lot of sports? What about headaches and migraines? When you work, have you specialised in some tasks that are/feel quite systematic for you? Are social interactions or other tasks that require new analysis exhausting for you? These are signs that you optimise your energy expenditure by focusing on tasks that barely require you to think with much energy.

Lack of energy is a very good reason for the brain to avoid using energy for its executive function, the function that is actually impaired in people with ADHD. It's normal, and trying to fix that feels exhausting, which is why people with ADHD avoid spending that energy.

The executive function is preliminary to focusing with other parts of the brain. If it's impaired, the brain won't even try to focus with other parts for the actual work. Two problems solved at once. Twice the energy spared.

Find the root cause of your ADHD (which often is just a symptom) and fix it.

I wonder what animal or plant would grow out of that...

No. You can't spend all your money on rehashing past results. Some, OK, all, not. In many fields, the money is needed for discovery.

In this paper, I analyze the relationship between ISP and DIP.

This paper makes 3 contributions:

1. A formal statement of the ownership clause for DIP, making explicit what Martin’s examples illustrate, but his DIP statement does not. 2. A proof that DIP’s ownership clause applied per client implies ISP universally at the class level, with the converse holding only under client-driven evolution. 3. The identification of three distinct interface evolution origins—client-driven, provider-driven, and shared governance—as the conceptual framework that explains why the ISP-DIP connection was historically hard to see and why ISP retains independent value outside client-driven contexts.
