  • Ah good. Now I know what specs not to buy.

  • Is There Any Benefit to Multivitamins?

    Jump

  • Interestingly, there is some evidence that suggests that antioxidants like vitamin C, especially when taken in the excessively large doses that are fashionable these days, can interfere with the immune system (which relies on oxidation reactions in order to clear pathogens and precancerous cells) and preclude gains from exercise (oxidation is used as a signal by the body to eg. induce muscle mass growth).

  • The ADHD urge to lie about why you didn't do something because "my brain refused to start on it" doesn't make sense to a lot of neurotypicals.

  • Depending on how old your kid is, it might or it might not improve. The frontal lobe of their brain still has a lot of development left in children; right up until they’re about 25. This may improve things.

    Also, please don’t be one of those parents who discounts meds. They can really help a lot. And no, they’re not addictive (in fact, people with ADHD are more likely to forget them than to use them recreationally).

  • What's helped me is a combination of physical exercise (which helps against feelings of unrest that may be bothering me) and sort of sliding into the subject, tackling the easier parts first and from there riding the dopamine wave.

    But yeah, it doesn't get any easier.

  • Why Are More Boys Than Girls Retarded in School? (1928)

    Jump

  • Exactly, and you cannot have a serious conversation about the attitudes of yore if you censor the words they themselves used.

    Back then, it simply meant “developmentally delayed”.

  • Get ready to hear more about "pre-internet" times

    Jump

  • One thing about the pre-Internet times I don't hear much about is how much more centralised our media were and how, as a result, people or ideas on the fringe of society didn't get much attention. That includes for instance how the strange ideas about vaccines or ethnic groups now spread much easier than they did before the Internet, but also how trans* people and other marginalised groups find it much easier to find and support each other and be a united front against oppression.

    In summary, I don't thing that what has been termed "the great awokening", nor the organised opposition against it, could have taken place before the Internet. At least not at this scale.

  • Microsoft is adding a new key to PC keyboards for the first time since 1994

    Jump

  • Sadly Microsoft didn't specify where on the keyboard the key has to be.

    In order to find out, hit the keyboard with your head; wherever your forehead touches the keyboard first is where the key is supposed to be.

  • I'm working on a PDP-11 emulator. I've got the basic instruction set implemented and have an implementation of ODT (the PDP-11's microcode monitor) with disassembler. I've found a test set and an implementation of BASIC for the PDP-11, and everything executes successfully. Next step is getting the MMU up and running.
