SortOfTested24643219d@OmerFlame
The official way to refer to the language is "lao," from what I've gathered. That's all english transliteration anyways. -
OmerFlame3057219d@SortOfTested hmm.
English can be annoying, but from my youth in Israel I can confidently say that English is MUCH MUCH MUCH better than Hebrew, Hebrew is over-engineered. -
netikras26420219dCryptography [in-depth, not just knowing which algo is used for what]. Still can't get my head around all that :/

linuxxx152805218dMany but this one recently:
Being hard/tough to someone when they fuck up.
I got a project where I'm mostly in charge and that also includes chasing down people who aren't doing their job well and being tough to them if necessary.
I'm just too nice, I can hardly get mad or raise my voice 😅 -
jesustricks3075218d@AleCx04 each day that goes by it’s harder to find the right porn video.
I used to like xhamster top video of all time but I have a feeling its algorithm is now manipulated. -
rutee0719663216dI forgot about this.
Mine is swimming. I never got the chance to learn as a child. Most of my relatives either don't know how to swim or don't want to go anywhere. One of the few times we went to a public swimming pool, I almost drowned so even when I was scuba diving or snorkeling with a life jacket, there are random moments when I would panic. I can calm myself down fast enough but that doesn't really work without a life jacket or regulator.
The contradiction is I like being around water, especially underwater. I want to learn free diving and take underwater photography so I'm taking swimming classes for adults starting next week to get rid of the nerves. -
NoMad10924216d@rutee07 you're gonna love it. Swimming is one of those really calming and relaxing activities, as long as you're not competing.
Also, when buying swimsuit, remember two things: 1. it should be tight enough to not come off when you dive head first. 2. it should be loose enough to come off easily when you rush to restroom. Avoid buying anything but a one piece suit, if you want to really swim.
Go on and have the time of your life. 😜 -
Wisecrack4823215d@NoMad you know you're comfortable in a relationship when you can piss in front of them (its always a weird one cuz some people will fuck but wont for example let you in to brush your teeth or shower while they use the bathroom).
maybe its just me but whats makes me uncomfortable is sleeping while I know someone in the room is awake (on their laptop, or in bed on their phone)
napping on the sofa if someone else is awake in the living room is another one.
edit: dealing with people who tend to have rage or explosibe screaming issues. causes me to kock up, everything gets physically hit and tingly and I get major tunnel vision when it happens, among other things. also happens randomly. found out of of the other things that causes it for me is the sound of dishes rattling or clinking. like instant need to either fight or leave the room. -
NoMad10924215d@Wisecrack are you trying to imply that you want to date me? 😏 Good choice, but unfortunately I've set my heart on not dating for the foreseeable future.
-
Wisecrack4823215d@NoMad I'll ask the questions here. What are you WEARING "Jake" from state farm at three in the morning?
-
NoMad10924214d@Wisecrack 🤔 I wonder if I should go with a yo mama joke, confess that I'm a middle aged man, or tell you that misophonia could be a sign of other problems so you may want to check out what's up with that?
Your choice! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ -
iamai2532214d@Wisecrack
That's if thinking of just fun? Doable, can try but well, there's always going to be a but. Or just not lucky...yet -
Wisecrack4823214dI thought misophonia too, but I found out 80% of misophonic sounds are typically mouth sounds and I LOVE mouth sounds, asmr, all that.
I think the dishes thing is actual ptsd. years of dad coming home high on meth and punching holes in the wall. My mom always knew when he was coming home high cuz he would work late. so she would rewash the dishes once, sometimes twice and I think thats where it came from. -
ifThenElse176213dNot facepalming, roll my eyes or make faces in meetings with the business side. Especially when they are trying to make tech decisions. Can’t have my webcam or mic on for this reason and I’m dreading going back to in person meetings where I won’t be able to hide it...
The other day I got “No we will not allow any development time on error handling or negative testing because it should be built to not get any errors to begin with” on a project depending on user input data, a mobile front end, 13 different components (micro services, lambdas etc.) and 2 legacy systems. Had to leave the room and scream.
What are some skills you find harder to learn than programming?
