anyway it is 100% stress triggered, I don't think that "I was so creative I used all my brain energy" is really valid as distinct from "I worked so hard and long I ruined my brain, body and life". I think that's what bugged me about that thread the use of "I hacked.." as if somehow this is a computer toucher hazard "normal people" may not be aware of and not just silicon valley discovering that burnout is real

my point is that people can have debilitating headaches without them being migraines, but the only way you’re going to get accommodation from your job or society for those debilitating headaches is by calling them migraines and that itself is the problem.

you shouldn’t have to medicalize yourself just to get some level of accommodation for not feeling well

I was annoyed at the use of "hacking" too but then he mentioned a few times literally hacking into places, it seems this person does InfoSec for a living.

huh you know I get the weird "reading feels difficult" thing as distinct from the "blank spot in vision, poo poo is about to get hosed up" aura I get before a full blown migraine and it never occured to me that that might be an aura without the headache

pretty sure that is actually a temporal lobe seizure but the migraine specialist neuro said nah

oh the "reading feels difficult" part is the start and by the end the whole left side of my vision is a pile of glitched out nonsense. Like it just looks something like a cloud of silver grey spikes and curves, but by that time I'm usually lying down with my eyes closed and it sorta fades away quickly.

I think Temporal lobe seizures are the ones where you like see god and he talks to you and poo poo, or feel that you are one with the entire universe and a being of pure energy. It's like some Dark Ages religious visions poo poo, IDK though I'm not a doctor.

about ten years ago i had a few "silent migraines" where i had scintillating scotoma but no pain. i got like two or three in a few months' span but they've never returned.

The best part of figuring out I had migraines was the amount of money I spent on specialists and MRIs because I was convinced I was dying, and then ultimately realizing they were migraines 100% on my own, and they happened just because I didn't like to wear glasses while working on the computer so I was getting consistent eyestrain. In hindsight it's incredibly frustrating no doctor ever just said "hey is it possible you get migraines???"

i have no idea if my regular, sometimes-debilitating face pain is migraines or what, but it's certainly worse now that i'm not getting massages monthly like i did pre-pandemic

feel bad for my old massage therapist, though, she was planning to get out of massage and had been accepted to flight attendant school in like jan 2020. bad timing for her :(

also … i know the first time I had a real migraine I was straight off to the doctor to find out if I was going blind or had a brain tumour or something, I’m impressed if there are people who just think “welp this is fine” yeah I know many Americans can’t afford healthcare

I had a visual migraine aura two days in a row in summer 2019 and didn't have any idea what it was having never had one before, and I thought something was going terribly wrong with my eyes so I went to the opticians about it who told me what it actually was

(i had never had it before and have never had it since, and I didn't do anything special on those two days that I'm aware of. it is really weird but I have since found out from my mum that she has had it before)

Running docker on winders is nice because I can spin up a postgresql server or whatever without having to install a bunch of bullshit. Just docker run dipshit/server:latest or whatever. Currently, our backend platform is all dockerized and we can use a docker-compose to start all the services. It's also trivial to set up your projects so that a build in VS triggers a docker restart, and debugging into a docker container is also really easy if you use the MS .NET Core SDK images as base.

docker on windows is fine if you're using it for dev stuff and for some god forsaken reason you want to use windows on your desktop. its nice that people can run integration tests with a db that the test framework spins up very quickly.

migraine auras can do some hosed up poo poo and he mentioned those. I had one once where I talked and wrote complete gibberish until I realised what was going on (and the headache started).

you can get auras without the headache though I think then that might be a type of epilepsy (temporal lobe) , I got tested for that after having a bunch of super weird waking flashback type things (and migraines) and they said "nah it's just weird migraine auras, try to not get stressed. also your parents have migraines so you're doomed anyway.

Yeah I got Scintillating Scotomas (weird visual migraines with no pain) in college when I stayed up fo over two days straight trying to start and finish a project that was supposed to have taken all semester and I would absolutely fail the course and not graduate if I didn’t turn something in. Untreated ADHD is hell.

In terms of bad programming, I’m having to add all sorts of basically device specific hacks to get accessibility text sizes to work right on the original SE. I’m glad the client actually cares about the ADA and is paying a lot of money for this because it’s almost impossible. Lots of e.g. nudging UI elements by 4 pixels to get things to fit at larger text sizes. The screen is so narrow that you really can’t have more than two UI elements next to each other horizontally. So a header with a back button on the left, a title in the middle, and an edit or add button on the right wont fit if the text size is at max and the title is more than ~5 characters. Every other iPhone screen is wide enough in portrait that this isn’t a problem.

I'm trying out some client side blazor (it's great). What really sucks though is trying to use bootstrap grid layouts. It seems way less dev friendly than wpf, which must have come out decades ago now. Surely there's a better way?

Both of these are reasons that I'd exclude from "just for shits" and falling under appropriate use cases.

I dunno. The tweet being referenced just seemed like people dicking around and expecting Docker to be something that it explicitly isn't then complaining about it. I'd expect Twitter users to be better-informed and discerning before posting their opinions.

counterpoint: Using WSL2 is bad if you need to do anything I/O heavy. Granted, WSL2 is miles better than WSL1, but it’s still awful in regards to I/O Ops.

have they made the support for lists of things better in blazor? when I tried it last it got messy as soon as you tried to add elements to lists of objects

can you use horizontal stack views, then set the orientation to vertical when an accessibility font size is selected? useyourloaf has some relevant material
