This sounds likely. I’d have to imagine at that stage of life the very concept of learning how to learn something for the first time is monumental.

What they’re learning isn’t as important as learning something for the first time. Since animals are so interesting, it sounds like a reasonable thing to start with.

I imagine it also has to do with establishing and reinforcing the concept that “things make noises and so can you”

There are few things that boost inspiration and innovation quite like a competent competitor.

I still don’t feel comfortable here. Lemmy feels too much like an echochamber of the same opinions. The lack of diversity makes me feel more comfortable on tumblr than Lemmy at the moment.

It’s frustrating when I do need to check Reddit for any niche things. I love forums, but find chatrooms like Discord anxiety inducing. Sometimes the only forum for a niche topic is a subreddit :/

It’d be cool if CGPGrey remade his “What is Reddit” video, but exchanged it for: “What is Lemmy”

He unlisted that video, so I don’t think he has that popular of an opinion of Reddit these days.

Celebrities like him joining would be a big help.

I suspect you aren’t the target audience.

Most mobile game marketing is done with ads in other free-to-play mobile games. Unless you play those types of games regularly, you’re unlikely to come across it.

I don’t touch any game I can’t pay for in full once and be done. So I know I’m not the target audience.

That space is for their thoughts to slide right off

I know “User Research” is a subset of design. But I think they hold the most important job of making sure the thing being built is actually what users want.

This was such a chill Isekai, so glad it’s getting a second season.

I just can’t stop playing Cobalt Core. And Baldurs Gate 3 is sitting right there

That article is from 10 months ago.
Is open source catching up still? Or have the goalposts moved too much since then?

I am glad to see some effort to find middle ground. The United States is so divided right now, I worry what the future holds.

Though this isn’t really the issue I’m enthusiastic to see that alignment on.

Off topic but, I just love them all so much. I wish the show had had a soft reboot so the student 6 had become our main characters for a few seasons.

Such a waste that we didn’t get more of them.

If we had proper care for the mentally ill and living on disability payments wasn’t so awful, people with severe PTSD (and likely sleep deprivation) wouldn’t be forced to have jobs.

Just a few more plot points away to re-enacting Burrow’s End in real life.

I desperately want this as well.

Y’know, it was way better than I thought it’d be. Tough, but I got a lot accomplished

Is it because it’s strangers asking? And you feel you have to pretend to be “fine?”

If so, I get that. Strangers and even acquaintances can be scary.

I love being asked how my day is by my partner though.

a single dose of the COVID vaccine reduced the likelihood of long COVID by 30 percent.

people who’d had three doses of the COVID vaccine were 68.7 percent less likely to develop long COVID

I’m so happy I got my fourth booster a while back.

In all seriousness, yes.

For me, my most valuable journaling has been stream-of-conscious thoughts as they come in. Good. Bad. Whatever. It all gets written down. This ain’t archival biography writing. In fact, it’s super liberating to throw out old journals sometimes. They’re all just thoughts.

Journaling has been the single most valuable tool in my mental health journey. It’s baffling how bad a day can be when I haven’t had my morning brain dump.

As someone with an absurdly bad sense of direction, I would be unable to go anywhere without the GPS in my phone.

I just don’t get lost anymore. Ever.

I would absolutely panic if I was outside my house and didn’t have my phone.
