  • I know you’re being extremely sarcastic. But identifying you have a problem is the first step to recovery. Knowing you are a way that you don’t like being, is great, now you can form a plan on improving it.

    Let’s take the easy example, if you know you’re a very negative person always putting people down. You can deliberately try to find something nice to say everyday. Maybe not a lot, maybe it won’t change the trend, but being more mindful and having an objective is a way to improve. So yes flip the switch. The switch will be very rusty, it’ll require a lot of elbow grease, and you’re probably going to have to wiggle it a bunch. But flip the switch, because you want to flip the switch.

    If you just decide, I’m an asshole and there’s nothing I can do about it, then you’re just going to be an asshole. But if you’re trying to be a reformed asshole, you’re an asshole with a heart of gold



  • Reminds me of bash.org RIP https://bash-org-archive.com/?top

    • “Where ever you go, there you are”
    • “We have just enough fuel to make it to the crash site”
    • “Ruh-Rouh”
    • “Deny, Deny, Deny - Until you believe!”
    • “A Rule without Enforcement is just wishful thinking”
    • “When life gives you lemons- BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD”
    • “Ignoring a alert is the same as normalizing alerts, if it’s important, don’t ignore it, if it’s not important don’t alert for it”
    • “Follow the money” - Gripping Hand I think
    • “Premature optimization is the root of all evil” - Knuth maybe
    • “Once you know something is possible, doing it becomes a exercise in persistence.”
    • “Science isn’t what other people say, its what YOU can observe”









  • Immediately and constantly apply updates.

    Very, very, rarely have I ever had to roll anything back. Newpipe I rolled back once.

    • MacOS - Minor changes Number.minor I update ASAP, Major Changes Number+1.1… I wait until Number+1.3… Apple has a history of breaking the ecosystem on major changes, give them a month or two to sort it out
