  • I have not tried that but I do have some anecdotal data from this week.

    Been running and doing mainly easy runs to increase duration.

    Not smoked all week and been great. Had about 1g of bud last night and OMG I could not wake up this morning. I normally wake up 07:45 when working from home and log on at 08:00, but I can start anytime I want really. So today I ended snoozing alarm until 08:55. Frankly it’s a 3 hour day on Fridays.

    Then I was super groggy all morning and just fatigued, even after 8 hours sleep which the garmin said was not ideal and interrupted. Did not want to go for a run today but sucked it up and man it ruined me. HR kept spiking and had to keep walking to keep it low in zone 2/3. Whereas last run on Wednesday was just easy and no walking for 35 mins.

    Maybe next time I’ll try smoking earlier and letting it leave my system before bed cause I can’t go through that again and it’s crazy that I went decades with this brain fog.

    Do you have a time limit to stop before bed? Sorry for wall of text this is very interesting for me and now I’m unloading on you.





  • Yea, I can’t really explain it but I saw a post the other day here somewhere and basically I agreed. They were saying that curse words have become so prevalent that they’ve lost some of the power, if every other word is fuck then it loses it potency, writing f*ck kind of adds that emphasis.

    Honestly though I’m just sick of all these people on here complaining about it to be honest, it’s the most minute of issue that they latch on too. Free expression means I can write what I want and if some people don’t like that that’s their problem.

    I guess also I’m just in a better place in my life and the constant negativity on here is just not something I’m prepared to keep consuming.

    Curse word this, Linux that, rah rah rah.

    This place has literally become the Donald for us on the left and it’s a massive circlejerk of all us fellating each other for being so moral when in reality we ain’t changing shit and we have made our own little echo chamber.

    I’ve gone from 4 hours a day on here to less than 5 mins on average and I’m happier for it.



  • I don’t know. We are still selling a product, which is the service we provide.

    For what it’s worth, we have clients of all sizes from family run to local transport authorities to one of the largest mobile network providers in Europe.

    Just not everybody is out here trying to maximise their profits at every turn. Some people, myself included, are just happy to have enough in life and do good work.





  • Lose what?

    Edit: I ask that because I work for a company (very small) as a software engineer and we would never treat our clients like this. We are fair and quite for work, if the client changes what they want halfway then guess what, we are fair and just do the work.

    Never lost a client and don’t need to advertise for new business because shocking as it seems doing good work actually gets you more work.
