I set up a ntfy server for myself. I hate notifications. Now what?

The Republican Party used to stand on the principle that you shouldn't change anything because changes only make things worse. Now that they dropped the principle of not changing anything, it freed up a lot of resources for them to really double down on every change making things worse.

Doing my kettlebell complex #fitstr a day late this week due to shovelling. 15 rounds in 17.5 minutes. Not great time, I was still feeling the cardio recovery. 3 extra rounds is a real win though.

I keep hearing stories about employees who automated their work and their company fired them because they didn't need them any more. Companies who fire their best and most future ready employee NGMI.

I already know who is going to show up and what they are going to say.

I'm a grill all year kinda guy but this is a bit much.

I wonder if AI compute is up because of all the people trapped inside by the storm chugging away at passion projects.

Caught up on nostr and my computer is still at 91%. What else could I do while waiting for long processes to complete?

A lesson in dementia. Step 1 is understanding that there are different types of dementia. It is an umbrella term that includes different diseases. These are different because they atrophy the brain in different ways. 1 of the most common is Alzheimers. Alzheimers has a global affect on the brain affecting all function across the board. In outcomes that means that a person with Alzheimer's will seem to fade away. The body is there but the personality, the person inside that body, goes away as the disease progresses. Another type is fronto temporal dementia. This preferentially damages the fronto temporal lobes of the brain. That part of the brain is in a way the highest level of the brain. Executive function and the ability to not act on every impulse lives here. Ever skip the thing that would feel best in that moment to in favor of a long term benefit? Thank your fronto temporal lobe. You may notice this sounds like being drunk, it is. Alcohol also inhibits the fronto temporal lobe. People with this type of dementia don't fade away. They become bigger, louder, bolder versions of their base impulses as the disease progresses. If this sounds like any American presidents to you I agree. Maybe we shouldn't have presidents that are past the average life span all the time.

Spent some #pickstr time practicing comb picking locks for the first time today. Had a master 150 and an abus 55/40 with me and got them both. It's miles easier than single pin picking on locks that it works on but definitely harder than using a key.
