  1. TIL: Structured #Procrastination

    "Procrastinators seldom do absolutely nothing; they do marginally useful things, like gardening or sharpening pencils or making a diagram of how they will reorganize their files when they get around to it. Why does the procrastinator do these things? Because they are a way of not doing something more important..."

  2. I was wondering how much data would theoretically fit on an A4 sheet. Must be printable on a consumer printer. Must be retrievable through a consumer scanner. With a margin of 10pt, one bit to 1 pt, 575×822 bits, about 59 Kb? A bit disappointing. Smaller pixels, smaller margin, compression. Yes I have other things to do. #procrastinate

  3. When I #procrastinate I write #gluecode, when I procrastinate and write glue code, I do really stupid things. I have hijacked headless chromium browser and “render” its output as #sixels. So I have “full” browser In terminal. It’s far from perfect, would like to add native dialogs handling (save file, alert, prompt, maybe handling certificates) but it will be hard to find motivation. So far I handle goto new page, go back and go forward. #linux #coding #fun #unimportantstuff

  7. // TODO:

    The most professional way to #procrastinate.

    It's negligence with accountability.
    It's #procrastination with documentation.
    It's a passive-aggressive note to your future self.

  9. As much as I want #neuromorphic #computing to be here already, I must admit it's not and can no longer do #research entirely on a #mobile #phone

    Having said that, I'm actually amazed that I haven't used a #laptop in over a year and got this far. But, needless to say, continuing #autaxys requires seeing more than 30-ish lines of #text at a time.

    Off to (#procrastinate at) the #computer store!

  10. I told myself I'd #write immediately after doing the dishes, but now the 🌞 suddenly has cloud cover and maybe I should swim (my exercise of choice if the Daystar is not trying to roast me alive #Arizona) now if a dust storm is brewing... 🤔

    What do you think?

  11. @Lichtenbergian @SrRochardBunson

    Upon casual inspection of my writing process, I find I am a Lichtenbergian in all but one precept.

    And now, back to the project I'm actually working on, instead of that other one.

  12. I have been #procrastinate ing a smartwatch for a number of reasons, mostly #adhd and anxiety; and a reluctance to add proprietary apps and services.
    As a life long early adopter of open source (TAMU #Linux, anyone?) I'm going to try espruino.com/Bangle.js2#tutori
    .
    (despite the reference to .js, it's not a toy and real programming languages like #python are available)
    Thank you @adafruit

  13. Shocker: Workshop's rescheduled to June. 🤸‍♀️ 🤸‍♀️ 🤸 So now I'm going to goof off and maybe just putter around my own garden a bit. Oh sure, I could just finish it now while I'm in the zone. But I'm a volunteer, and I'm retired! So... #procrastinate

  14. Whenever I do something I give it my all. That's why I put the "pro" in #procrastinate

  15. I'm annoyed at how much I #procrastinate on certain things. I caught myself searching for "the perfect pen" to markup a book I'm about to start reading. Why in the hell was I doing this?!

    Me to myself: Just use a f*cking pen that you have. It doesn't matter which one. You've got tons of them to choose from and you don't need to buy a new one for this singular purpose.

  16. Tomorrow, I will try not to read all the unpleasant stuff that happens in the world.

    There are healthier ways to #procrastinate.

  17. I’m stalling when I should be getting something else done. 😞

  23. Bought a new Samsung 2TB NVMe to replace the primary drive on my main desktop...I've been procrastinating on moving data, rearranging drives and reinstalling my OS for months now...one day I'll put this new drive in.

  24. sometimes I #procrastinate and then I feel discouraged because I procrastinated so I procrastinate more.

    There isn't enough time to do the whole project so I don't want to start. Starting and stopping and starting again feels too difficult. Why not wait until tomorrow and try again?

    Usually I manage to strong-arm myself but it is an annoying characteristic I have been unable to quash permanently. Instead I triumph for a time and then succumb again only to fight free again and succumb and...

  25. I have two weeks off work and have already started to worry about the first day back. My brain hates me. I’ve also not done anything I wrote down on my to-do list. #procrastinate much?

  26. Relative to most people I know, I #procrastinate the least. It wasn’t always that way. I think I’ve come to understand:

    1. Time is the only real resource we have, and the rate at which I accomplish things determines how much I can accomplish overall. (And maybe I care more about accomplishing big things, now.)

    2. “Later” is when the #yaks come out.

  27. The Hero's #journey is circular.
    Hence, if you #procrastinate setting out long enough, you will have already arrived at your destination. #Quest #HerosJourney #Procrastination

    “Everyone procrastinates. The difference between high performers and low performers is largely determined by what they choose to procrastinate on.” #BrianTracy

    Hi all, I'm looking for people to record a 1 minute audio clip about why do you think we procrastinate and how do we overcome that hurdle?

    Look forward to hearing from you #JournoRequest #podcast #PRrequest #procrastination #procrastinate #books #bookstodon
