Yeah, you can't outrun your fork.

Have a calorie tracking app and track everything. You will start to learn how somethings are more calorie dense than others. Don't have junk food. You will want to snack. Have veggies like carrots or fresh fruit on hand. Drink water first. So many times I "feel" hungry but I am actually thirsty. Load up on broccoli. If you over eat, then have lots of broccoli. It's filling and not calorie dense. When possible plan your meals ahead of time. It's brutally hard to make the better diet choice when your hungry. It's easier to just follow through with a decision you already made.

They aren't a hero. They are a company attempting to generate a profit by selling a product. This is likely to be helpful to the consumers, but they aren't making a sacrifice for our benefit.

That makes sense. I had a consistent fear that I would graduate, get a job, and not know what I was doing at all. So it pushed me to understand materials beyond what the class required.

Haha, that is some fantastic imposter syndrome right there. "People thought I had answers for some unknown reason. So they came to me for answers and I kept providing the with correct answers. Weird."

No. They were covering important parts of the story but not in the same way as the books. Like Matt beating the princlings with a stick. That scene happened, but when and the circumstances of it happening were different.

I think the main thing is that if you go in wanting the books, you won't be happy. I choose to approach it as a different turning of the wheel. Important parts of the story are the same, but exactly how everything happens is different.

Does that mean we should start sending copies of the books to French kids with an interest in cinema?

Yeah, season 1 was a mess. But seasons 2 and 3 were both steps up in quality.

To be fair, if our AI was as capable as his AI vibe coding would be viable.

I would find and follow a tutorial. They give you the "what" to do and you can go down rabbit holes of research connecting the why/how. Then when your done, you are starting with some knowledge/understanding which makes seeing possible applications easier.

Yeah. I have found the prototype perspective can help. The idea being that this first attempt is part of the learning exercise and you will redo it "properly" the second time. It helps prevent building a emotional mountain of requirements to get started that only exist in my head. It's kind of an mindset of knowing you will mess up the first one and that is OK because it is expected and a required part of the process.

I have used audiobook shelf to read a couple of PDF files. Seemed to work fine. I mostly use it for audio books.
