Fellow ADHD austisic here. Who do you follow on Twitter that helped you?

Also anything else that helped with either ADHD or autism, ADHD meds don't work for me so I'm struggling to find something that does

I'll see if stopping helps.

Thanks

rex-mundi | 3 years ago | on: Ask HN: Which book are you reading, since when?

You've got alot of fun reading lined up.

Almost all of the ones I've read were great.

If you're stuck with which to go with next maybe try Mort or any of the early series involving the witches.

rex-mundi | 3 years ago | on: Ask HN: How do you stay focused at work?

ah that makes sense, thanks!

rex-mundi | 3 years ago | on: Ask HN: How do you stay focused at work?

I'm assuming this is at your home office?

If so how do you handle it locking your computer during a video call?

Don't worry, you're not the last group, from personal experience I can say people on the spectrum are fair game to descriminate against as we'll

I totally agree with learning from others do but I don't think you'll get too much use out of asking for honest feedback.

Either people won't trust it's 100% anonymous, won't see an upside for themselves or maybe bad actors.

Nice one, bookmarked! :)

One small improvement might be to make it so that it creates a url which the user can go back to without entering the data again.

That way they can bookmark it / share if they want.

rex-mundi | 4 years ago | on: If – A Poem by Rudyard Kipling

I've always interpreted the "not talk too wise" bit as to communicate and idea in a way the audience will understand without using overly complex language or concept's which are above their understanding.

Not saying that interpretation is correct, just what my take away was.

rex-mundi | 4 years ago | on: Ask HN: Is back end dev generally easier than front end?

Any chance you could list the skills/knowledge you feel have kept you marketable?

Asking as I'm just about to reach mid forties and I'm a Frontender who feels the same as the OP.

If I have a go at moving to backend one concern I have is that I wouldn't know what skills are just nice to have's and what's an essential skill so I could waste too much time learning the wrong things.
