Is this not basically once-off nerd-sniping for post workers... "ooh: here's a challenge."? I'm sure you only hear about the success stories.
Older devices! And some new ones that still have USB-micro. It's quite difficult to buy a USB-C cable that is not USB-C or Lightning on the other end. While USB-A on the charger's side with USB-C on device side is quite…
Ha! Some of my current favourite artists are barely older than my kids! What's amazing is that you can hear their influences as being the music I was listening to when I was a teen through to my early 20s. Example:…
Absolutely true. But in mine and perhaps others' case, not a bad thing at all. See, I've had years of religious indoctrination and because of my way of thinking, I internalised that so deeply, that I lived every moment…
I was a kid who learned enough music to be barely good enough to do music at church... Now a few decades later I'm learning the drums using Rock Band [0] (and similar, I have almost a complete collection); the video…

Yes! I've been slowly getting into his work on the various executive functions, not just the intellectual/thinking one... emotional regulation is a big thing too!
Not GP, but I've commented on a few of your comments so far, so will keep going. I still haven't repaired a few things in my life that still cause me significant stress (happy to go in-depth if you email, see bio), but…

Agreed. "There's too many kids being diagnosed with ADHD." Um, just maybe those kids would really like to not be made to feel absolutely worthless in life because they have struggles with their attention that was…
Fascinating. Seems to me that it would be a comorbidity with a common cause though, rather than the myopia being the causative factor? My (somewhat loosely informed) intuition suggests to me that in the same way that…
Yes! I would just add that I like to refer to it as "attention dysregulation" rather than 'deficit'... my experience I can focus on one singular task to the exclusion of all other needs and demands (even base biological…
This just gave me the completely random idea... (as someone whose parents used to have tons of ClarisWorks docs)... build OCR into the emulator. :)
