@servelan@actuallyautistic@br00t4c She's just another neolib prosperity gospel person to me she's as bad as the megachurches in Brazil okay not that bad. I liked Getting Things Done but the guy is clearly speaking to the ruling class there. Not as bad as freakin 7 Habits which sucks and has a blurb from a US president who is a very gross human being and killed a lot of people.
@servelan@actuallyautistic@br00t4c GTD is really helpful for basically saying start with the unifier task: getting all your tasks into one checklist. Then prioritize. Figure out how long parts take. Make sure you set aside enough time to GTD. Complex simplification system, it works
@Zauberfrau viele grundlegende Thesen darin werden, wie der deutsche Informatiker Wolfgang Ertl über die Analyse seiner US Kollegin Elaine Rich schreibt, auch 2050 "immer noch aktuell" sein, andere werden helfen zu verstehen, wie wir dahin kamen wo wir sein werden (ich mit viel Glück und #ProjektMyra als phantastischer #Weltenbau sicherlich auch noch). Lohnt sich. Und ist #OpenSciece - die Papier Version kostet, das #EBook kann man legal kostenlos laden. Lesen! @bookstodon@buchstodon
Und wo finde ich das legale kostenlose Ebook zum Laden? Ich finde nur leider Bezahlversionen, die sogar noch teurer als die Papierversion sind.
Ist es vielleicht nur für Institutionen kostenlos?
A coop PvE game for two dads and three sons?
A shooter, preferably. Any recommendations, #mastodon guys? The youngest lad is 10, so as little violence as possible. Thanks 😉
I did this previously by using MultiMC (now PrismLauncher). Make a mix of mods, send them the zip of the whole game instance and ask them to drag and drop it onto MultiMC. The biggest issue I encountered was one family member having a black ingame world until they changed a setting in the graphics mod, otherwise it didn’t seem to be too hard.
By comparison Minetest is much easier for playing mods with family. Everyone downloads the server’s mods when they join. But the interest is lower.

The way we engage with math can be so harmful. I get many students in my intro econ classes who are, quite literally, traumatized by their experience with math.
Love this study showing empirical evidence of aspects of it.
Do you know about 3brown1blue? It’s one of the nicest math explainer yt channels out there, focusing on intuitive grasp of math (say dot or cross product, but much more like Bayesian stats or Fourier transform)
I wonder if something like it can unwind the damage.
@WhyNotZoidberg I've been thinking a lot about this lately, and I think most everyone who isn't a "hero" character is just a really suboptimal multi-class that's already "max level". So like, instead of being a fighter/20 (or whatever the lower level cap in bg3 is), they're all merchant/10 housekeeper/2 singer/1 (etc.) combos that are mostly classes we don't know about because they're irrelevant to players.
@aharper Yeah, same here. Maybe since you don't do anything that gives huge chunks of xp, you just don't get higher than say "shop keeper lvl 8" before you retire. Main skills are "ordering the precise amount of bananas needed so they all sell before they go bad"
@lalage Wat grappig. Dat heb ik nooit geweten dat Instagram daarvoor gebruikt werd. Inderdaad, hier op Masto lijkt de spoeling dun wat boekenlezers betreft. Lijkt, he. @boeken heeft aardig wat volgers.
Can anyone link me to a study or a chart something to prove to some paper pushers in my life that the average life expectancy for autistic people is at a set age?
I'm 46 now and I believe I am past the average life expectancy, and some paper pushers asking me to 'prove' my need for assistance, from a doctor, renewed annually... which'll cast off several years of my life in stressful experiences to upkeep.
@nddev@actuallyautistic You might be correct, asessing my family's longevity might be more accurate from lack of data in general. But..
I have tried the family avenue many years in the past with other proof-on-paper services unsuccessfully. I was required to provide death certificates I did not have permissions to obtain. When I asked grandpa for a copy of the deaths of his wife and daughter, I was told he threw those away because it depressed him.
Imagine how fucking scary meeting Gordon Freeman must be in Half Life 1
Like every other scientist but you is a pacifist, then they see Gordon turn the corner, covered head to toe in 6 kinds of alien and human blood, high off his ass on morphine and adrenaline, carting like 5 different guns and 3 top secret government projects on his back.
