As I am living an almost mouse free life, automatically setting the input focus at the window (or input field) that I am currently looking on, would be a very nice comfort feature.
Last time I researched this, I could not find a solution, that works on Linux and also has widescreen support.
Inflation of specific asset prices is also playing into this. Money is losing its value. Try buying a house with a regular wage nowadays. Politicians, central banks and economic experts are sleeping at the helm.
Here is the one thing, that works for me, if I must read a text:
While reading I use a Text-To-Speech-Engine to read out the text at the same time. TTS-reading speed should be at least 1.5x. It should not be too easy to keep up.
I have no explanation why this works, but it does. Maybe someone else with ADHD finds it useful.
I suspect a connection with the intestinal flora.
Bacteria in the intestinal flora are able to synthesize all kinds of neurotransmitters from carbohydrates.
I myself become very lethargic under a normal carbohydrate-containing diet. On low carb I have a lot of motivation and a lot of energy.
Sorry for being imprecise, but I actually meant Standard Time (as in noon at about 12pm). Our circadian rhythms are not as flexible as many people think. There are many studies showing that people sleep less if the sun sets later, causing a net sleep loss with related health problems.
> because people have little control over when their day starts.
This is actually one of the best arguments for standard time all year around!
If we force people to start the day at a specific time, we have the obligation, that for as many people possible, this time will be in sync with their circadian rhythm. And this can be guaranteed best with standard time.
I hope Germans also reconsider and start listening to the scientists!
This is again one of those issues where people voted against their own interests, because they associate summer with warmth + light and winter with cold + darkness.
> clearly rape isn't such a big evolutionary disadvantage that no species exist with this trait.
If different species (with different evolutionary strategies) also have different moralities, would this not be a strong hint towards morality being based on evolution?
When americans are discussing politics they are always missing the point. At least from the outside perspective.
It's like two parties arguing about football. One side is saying, we need to abolish referees, the players should sort problems out themselves. The other party is saying the referees need more power and instruments in order to better control the game.
The simple truth is, people need to make sure that the referees work for them and not for the individual players who hand them the most money.
From my experience, fixing the glitching issue is relatively easy. Took me about 5 minutes last time. I did it twice already. Only 4 screws have to be removed. Check youtube for tutorials.
From my personal experience, I have to agree with wapapaloobop. I put a spoon of raw cacao in my morning coffee, because I love the taste. However I drink (and eat no) sugar whatsoever and found the taste disgusting (in the sense of spitting it out) when I accidentally drank from my girlfriends coffee some time ago.
Maybe do both? Rewriting in Rust and increasing incentives.
Writing security critical software in c++/c is not the sensible thing to do in my opinion (even though it is the standard right now). Humans in general cannot handle it without making a lot critical errors. And the people working on those projects are already really smart in general. This has been shown again and again.
If c++ was a car, it would force you to place your foot in a special position in between breaking and accelerating. If you do it wrong, your foot will get squashed in the exposed drive train.
Of course for the point of the argument I am exaggerating, but I really applaud the efforts Rust has made in order to advance the security of software.
