You can be certain of something and change your mind later when presented with new evidence. Sometimes it's best to just commit. Especially in this case where you're already living your life under the assumption that you can tell the difference between reality and a fever dream.
But maybe you are weird and question yourself frequently if you're experiencing reality or not, and if that's the case that just seems unhealthy to me.
Either way, I'll continue to be certain that my reality is real until there's evidence to the contrary.

That makes more sense to me. I didn't even consider a drone being low speed or having a small payload, but by military standards it totally is.
The thought of a swarm of kamikaze drones really is terror inducing though.

I had though that production ramp-up is what militaries have been working on for a while.
I obviously don't follow the space since I said I was surprised, but with how long drone tech has been around now it feels like there has been enough time for that production ramp up.
Obviously I'm wrong, and I'm almost happy I am because when it is bazillions of kamikaze drones then war will be even more hellish.

I'm a bit surprised that this isn't happening already. We know drones are being used, but it sounds like it's at a smaller scale than I expected.

Reply to comment by MeetInPotatoes in [Image] If you wait until you're motivated, you've already lost. by rustyyryan
The odd thing with this is the examples used in the post all rely on external accountability, which I'm a big fan of because I'm lazy. On top of that, they're all job related.
Its much easier for me to show up to work and to do my job than it is for me to do the dishes. If I don't show up for work I can not continue to pay my rent or eat.
However, I pay for a physical trainer because if I don't show up to the gym I waste money and let my trainer down.
Both are different types of external accountability and the latter is kind of a replacement for internal motivation.
I don't know where I'm going with this, but I agree that the post is confusing.

Because everything you wrote reads as passive aggressive and the general sentiment of your comments are really bad advice for a workplace regardless of it they likely smoke pot or not.
A simple "Yeah, I fucked up" is a lot better than pretty much anything else in a situation like OPs or for most workplaces in general. Substitute that with whatever language is appropriate for your workplace.
Taking ownership of your mistakes is just the easiest way to diffuse most workplace fuck ups.

I'd think getting a friend on their discord call would help if their intent is to get viewers. A stream with a silent streamer seems like a bad idea.
Maybe I just don't understand their intent though.

Not the case, that's not my story. You really shouldn't tell othet people that their lived experiences are not real because you can't imagine them.

There's two arguments here.
One: that's getting into the pedantics of what being qualified means. I perceive it as if you feel that way. Considering the sub I think self identification of that is fine.
Two: that you can do things outside of your job description that you are unqualified to do and if it's good enough to show it off.
I am talking about both of these things. I constantly do shit that I perceive that I am unqualified for and also things that I am unqualified for. Also, as previously stated since we're getting weird here, only if it doesn't hurt someone.
We can reframe this as underqualified or however you want to take it. At a certain point it's understanding the intent of what's said.
Tldr; do shit you're unqualified for.

That falls under the "if it doesn't hurt someone" statement with you being that someone.

Not typically. There's certain professions where it's bad advice as seen in this thread: surgery, flying a plane, etc.
However, a lot of learning on the job, or just in general, is doing exactly this. If it's something where you can hurt someone by doing it then don't, otherwise try your best and learn some new shit.
Source: I got into my profession by doing work that I was unqualified for until I got good at it. I now work for start-ups to do that thing.

I will read half the headline and claim I read the entire headline instead. I hope this is sufficient for Reddit. Btw, did you see that there's a Boston dog with a lawsuit now?

After reading the headline, which inherently proves I can read (further proved by my ability to write a sentence), I've came to the conclusion that these are both robot dogs.

Reply to comment by internetisnotreality in [image] you're doing the best you can. keep going and keep moving forward :) by ttoffee
I used to be exactly like what's described in this comic only it turned into stress and anxiety rather than self hatred.
I learned to completely let those types of negative feelings just flow out of me rather than holding them and then shift my attention towards improvement. It's not that I'm holding onto those to propel myself to success, but that I recognize them briefly and then problem solve.
I guess I just personally don't like the framing of using them to motivate you because it's this idea of holding on to those things which is how I was in such a negative mindset for so much of my life. I much prefer the framing of recognizing them and moving to the next step.
Using your pain metaphor, I recently cut myself doing dishes. I recognized the pain and then applied pressure and found a first aid kit to patch myself up. I did not focus on the pain, but solved the problem. After that I moved on and was a bit more careful handling knives. Next time I didn't stop and remember the pain of the cut to not do it again as motivation, but instead just remembered to be more careful.
Maybe my brain is broken or different, but for me that subtle difference was the life changing part.

When you flush with the toilet seat open how much shit and piss particles do you think you are throwing around in the bathroom?
Close then flush is the best solution.
If it's a multi-flush shit, close before the final flush.

Is there a site to purchase any of your painted sculptures from? Your work is amazing.
I have no idea the cost of these things, but I'd at least like to know so that I can dream :)
