There is a difference between knowing which medicines to give someone. And then having that knowledge of which to choose (after seeing a healthcare professional), and then being able to buy (make) any brand of that item.

I read that comment, and use it similarly, as more a super-dictionary/encyclopedia in the same way I'd watch supplementary YouTube videos to enhance my understanding. Rather than automating the understanding process.

More like having a tutor who you ask all the too-stupid and too-hard questions to, who never gets tired or fed up with you.

I thought the headline said they were linked. My first reaction (which surprised me) was "oh well, not much to be done about that then eh". Glad I re-read it 😅

Even clicking the refresh button on boost doesn't change the image, it's still the crewcut one now.

I've started using a stopwatch, and my aim is not to complete the task, but just to spend time on that task and nothing else. This does 2 things: 1) just the fact I'm on the tasks moved me forward more than not being on the task. 2) as its counts up, not down, I am just interested in increasing the number, so every 30 seconds or minute or 10 extra that I do makes the number bigger and the dopamine higher.

I combine this with a habit tracker (literally called habits on android store) so I can try and beat my last high score etc.

I don't set myself any targets etc that would cause me to feel shame (and then procrastinate due to that shame), so it lowers the barrier of startinf sufficiently low so that I can get on. And then the flow starts to kick in and we're off...

Does the last bit mean "earlier that morning" or "morning, the next day" I wonder.

That's a whole different way of playing trading card games.

 

I saw this at a music venue. It was strapped onto railings above the audience facing the stage. Says "kick out", is attached by zip ties, looks like a tube wrapped in a durable plastic coat, and looked like it might have a wire running to it.
