My assumption is they get a big enough kick back that it's worth it.

His actions are a pretty big indicator but not 100% true.

If you struggle to visualise, just focus on your breathing. When you notice you are distracted bring it back to your breathing. Acknowledge where your mind drifted but try not to dwell on it as you focus back.

There are also apps available to help with breathing exercises. I had one that showed a balloon inflating and deflating. I found it easier to focus on that at first.

Counting while you box breath can also make it easier. The count can be whatever you're comfortable with. 5 5 5 5 works well for me.

Nah he's just bullshitting to his base. This isn't a mental health crisis or anything. Just grifting.

"ChatGpt is really good if you use it properly"

Gets torrents of down votes every time. But I literally use it a lot at work and it's brilliant.

God I'm getting old. They don't look anywhere near old enough to vote to me.

I hate going to the pub now as it's full of children looking people.

This used to happen when new subs opened. Most of my feed was just them.

My assumption was that as the sub grew the posts kept getting voted higher than any other on the sub and therefore pushed as top material relative to the subs normal amount of up votes.

But then they'll only refuse in areas they think they'll lose.

Most of the time yeah. But it depends as you can write c# with very little GC use if you avoid allocations.

Ahead of time compiling also gets things much closer. But then you lose runtime optimization.

Actually jit languages can outperform compiled languages by using runtime analysis to perform tiered compilation and profile guided optimisations.

C# has made some great strides in this regard.

All the normal optimisations are applied when it is compiled to byte code. Like loop unrolling etc.

Then once it detects the hot paths during execution it can apply even more based on how it is called. It can also do optimisations that aren't possible at initial compile time.

Dynamic PGO it's called. It's a really interesting topic.

Money. Sone people will look past almost anything if they think it'll make them richer.
