Bilbo looking at his phone top

on bottom is ChatGPT

After all, why not? Why shouldn't I keep it?

You're absolutely right — you found it, it's been with you a long while, and it's only natural to feel fond of something that's served you so well, especially when someone like Gandalf suddenly seems to want it for himself.

Free Courses — Language Transfer

I’m a little bit blown away at how incredibly educational and helpful www.languagetransfer.org/courses has been.
I’ve been struggling with finding a beginner course for learning Spanish; I wish I found this sooner.

I’ve got Daily Tasks, simple Tasks/Reminders, Shopping lists, but also more obscure things like reminders for relationships or chores.

And I’m just so surprised at how much seeing a number for the due/overdue reminders has helped; night and day difference.

For several days I was wondering why my productivity tanked; I was originally thinking that it was meds losing their effectiveness. Then I realized that I had converted the reminders app icon into a widget, which removed the red dot with numbers on it.
Silly but effective.

I’m hoping that i fixed my #ADHD productivity problem.
Sure, meds were critical, but also having the proper productivity system in place is also important
Surprisingly, mine was the #iOS reminders app; not only that, but I had to see its badge numbers and how many reminders were due.

Feel overwhelmed by your to-do list? Try making a to-don't list, of things you don't need to do. Mine for today includes:
- get haircut
- dismantle and rebuild TV
- learn to speak Farsi
- invent velcro
- cause small earthquake in east Nebraska
- kidnap a Klingon
I haven't done any of them. Success!

Bank of England Warns of Impending AI Disaster The Bank of England has sounded the alarm, warning of an intensifying risk of a "sudden correction" due to an AI spending frenzy.

“Concerns over an AI bubble bursting have grown lately, with analysts recently finding that it’s 17 times the size of the dotcom-era bubble and four times bigger than the 2008 financial crisis.”

Hang onto your butts. This “correction” is gonna hurt.
