What's interesting to me is how high DeepSeek is on these graphs considering it is so cheap you don't think about it (like $5 usd per month cheap.)

A small correction to this, your friends don't really like you due to any desirable attribute you have, its not an exchange process. They like you for your you-ness.

Think about a friend, what is it you like about them? I think you will find that it's not a series of attributes, but a rather unquantifiable them ness - you like the fact they are uniquely them, this is how you are seen as well. You're enough.

Let's not forget that comparing the 2020's to the 90's is like comparing the 90's to the 60's. Would we have a more substantial list between those two decades?

Have you seen / did you create this series on youtube? The final video lands on something very similar to this. https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsfH1Ahi4SzE-QmrsrtyZubGm...

Is there a way to move the canvas via mac track pad which works the same way the middle mouse button does? I.e. always drags even if I'm looking at an editor

Is it? If you've got `PasswordAuthentication` disabled, only allow public key logins and keep your system up to date. Honest question.

I self host my email ( docker-mailserver ) and host my personal website on an old laptop with a static IP. Have done for years now without issue.

I'm way less anxious as an adult than I was as a kid. Likely due to various coping strategies that I've ingrained over the years.

Interesting, do you have a reference for the autism to weed anxiety link?
