how 2 fix?
half serious unsolicited advice incoming:
I know "get a hobby" is a cliche but it's around for a reason. I think ennui is one of the most destructive psychological forces we can experience, but it's dual in distraction only marginally better. Neither state can support the emotional needs of an adult. It's critical to find ways to spend your time that you're internally motivated to pursue (so not as a means to an end i.e. doing homework, going to a job) for reasons other than simply avoiding boredom like drugs, TV, whatever, which can be fun and worthwhile but can't constitute your only noncompulsory activity.
I think most people recognize this, but it can be difficult the find things that fit this criteria, seeking out something that isn't mere distraction for the sake of avoiding the pain of boredom almost seems paradoxical. I think most pursuits that are rewarding in a holistic sense are those that lack immediate appeal. There's this paper I really like, I think I've mentioned it before, called proleptic reasons that discusses this, undertaking high-cost (not necessarily monetarily, but in terms of effort, time, opportunity cost in other more pleasurable activities) projects before the value of those projects are fully understood or directly perceptible to your hedonic faculties.
IDK, they say advice is just anecdotes plus overgeneralization but it rings true to me. The things in my life that give me the most joy do so in ways I couldn't have even conceived of prior to immersing myself in them. For years when learning to program I just wanted to make games or this or that program, I had to push myself to practice, to put time aside, reminding myself there was the reward of having some piece of software in the end. But slowly over time, hardly even noticeable, my motivations changed and I came to enjoy the activity itself, it stopped being about the product and became about the process. People talk about "flow state" which sounds really dorky and pop-psych-y to me but I really do think the experience of total engagement in something that's challenging is about the most sustainable sense of contentment you can manage. -

Originally posted by greenplastic Yea…I mean, I guess I already knew that. I just have trouble actually motivating myself to do shit when I don't absolutely have to do it. I know what you mean by "flow" and I experience that too when I'm engaged in studying or doing homework. I've definitely gotten really into programming before also where I'm totally focused on it, I just like….won't do that on spring break. idk maybe I just need to buckle down and get to it.
Yeah, I don't think there's any answer for the motivation issue, you just have to grind at it and know that it gets easier. Goals are certainly helpful in the interim while you don't have internal motivation, but you still kinda just need the force of will to stick to them.

Originally posted by mmQ Is 2-fma the one that is difficult to obtain now? Am I thinking of 4-fma? Both? Neither? What's the difference anyway? I'm dumb?
Yeah, I think both 2 and 4 fma were in the china ban and are mostly unsourcable now. 4 is more euphoric, less functional. 2-fma is a very clear, clean feeling high, although how it feels doesn't say much about how bad it actually is for you. -
2017-03-24 at 6:58 AM UTC in girl gets bullied at dairy queens free cone dayIf you kill a person while drunk driving it's probably fair to say you couldn't have avoided it (you were drunk) but we still hold such a person responsible for putting themselves in the situation where they're drinking drunk. Likewise it maybe be difficult for women or people in general to lose weight but unless they have some sort of condition that makes their weight an inevitability it doesn't seem like we can just say "well it's hard to lose weight, no one to blame". I mean I'm not saying we should all abuse fat people at every turn but it does seem like we can at least hold them accountable for poor life decisions.

2017-03-22 at 1:01 AM UTC in Σ∞ = ✡4chan used to have this text only board called /prog/ that was like this big semi-obscure inside joke about functional programming. There was one dude who wrote this like 10 page thesis on why infinity usually doesn't get representation in standard numerical programming type systems how jedis love the notion of infinity and nullness because it's central to their idea of god and how ultraconstructivism, as fostered by close-to-hardware programming, was the only cure for the jedi metaphysics. It just went on and on and it was pretty hilarious.
Anyway, yeah, sigma infinity does intact equal the star of david. -

NASA is receiving slightly more money than Trump requested in his 2018 budget blueprint. It included $19.1 billion for the agency, which would have been a modest funding cut.
It'd be nice if you read the shit you post -

2017-03-19 at 2:04 AM UTC in Hello Shodan.io API tech support?
Originally posted by Sophie Oh yeah, that works, so if i wanted to get the geolocation as well would i use the service.get syntax as well? Preferably I would get geolocation, ports, services and vulns.
Geo info pertains to the host rather than the services it runs (like you can run http and ssh from the same host but they'd still have the same IP and still geolocate to the same place), so you'd use result[whatever] (like "city" or whatever keys you expect). Also worth mentioning that all dictionaries have the `.get()` method, `dict.get('foo')` is almost the same thing as `dict['foo']`, the difference is the former will return None (or its second arg, if supplied) if the key doesn't exist in that dictionary, whereas the latter will throw a KeyError, so in this case it's just a way of supplying a default value. -
