Yeah,I can relate. I've been recently starting to learn how to make my communication more concise, that helps with getting to the point, and not getting lost mid-sentence.

Yes, I definitely do. It's because my brain runs quite slowly, slower than I talk. So I often need to put in filler words to let my brain catch up. Or I repeat the same thing I just said but in a different way.

It's odd how the brain can kindof pre-load the mouth with a sentence, then while the sentence is playing, it hunts for the next sentence to cue. If the next sentence is not ready yet, then the mouth goes into autopilot. It puts in filler words to make the sentence longer, and loops back on other things I've already said.

Wow, I've been using paint.net on windows for years, and Pinta on Manjaro for even longer. I had no idea Pinta was a clone of Paint.net. TIL

Good point, and they did do zero. You can tell a difference between 0 and 1tsp. Some say 2tsp is "better" but most can't detect it. Anything above 2 is the same.

You should watch the recent videos by "Nate from the Internet", he keeps doubling the amount of vanilla extract put into cookies until you can detect a difference.

Spoiler: 1tsp, 2tsp, 4tsp, etc all taste exactly the same in the final product. After adding in cupfuls, the cookies start to taste bad from too much alcohol, but don't taste any more vanilla than the 2tsp batch. He even tried with vanilla beans and whole pods.

Honestly, for me the Forgejo/Codeberg UI is the best out there, I actually like it even better than GitHub. I think you just need to get used to it. If you had been using Codeberg the last 10 years and just discovered GitHub today, you'd take one look at it and say the UI is bad.

"we built this decentralized federated source code control system!", great let's get everyone to put all their code in one central location.

I must be autistic wrongly because all of these are perfectly fine for me.

The skin on my fingers instantly turns into Velcro whenever I touch microfibre.

Animorphs was definitely in this category.

If that's the case, then you're using it wrong. It's possible to use AI to cover most of the boring parts and leave you to do the fun parts.

I see the same thing in the software industry. Programming is something where it's perfectly common to need to have cheat sheets at your desk and reference the documentation regularly. But freshly graduated students think that's cheating. They're convinced they need to memorise all aspects of a programming language and it's standard library. The amount of new information I take in every day, it would be impossible to remember everything. The real skill is information retrieval, being able to look up what you need to know when you need it.
