Been feeling mentally exhausted by end of work days lately. Decided to investigate my actual computer usage patterns.

Turns out on "manager mode" days I'm hitting 1000+ context switches. No wonder I'm fried.

Deep work days? ~200 switches. 5x difference.

The attention residue is real 😮‍💨

@sibekoziyanda Arsenal need to win this one 10:0 so next draw can be sufficient with high chance

[Rustem Kamun @KamunRustem]

@sibekoziyanda Nope

Wow the first LLM trained in space on H100s. Of course it must be nanoGPT.

[Andrej Karpathy @karpathy]

nanoGPT - the first LLM to train and inference in space 🥹. It begins.

@Money23Green the greatest defender of all time. I have a suggestion to bring Pat Spencer to The Draymond Green Show. He has a very interesting story to share. Many of us didn't know about it, until he start hooping. Who but not you can give him this opportunity to share.

[Rustem Kamun @KamunRustem]

Feeling so good about tonight's Pat Spencer's performance. #Warriors @PatSpencer6969. Thank you for bringing this win, it was beautiful.

FYI: Attention residue = mental tabs that don't fully close

When you switch tasks, your brain keeps background processes running on the old task. The more you switch, the more "tabs" are open, the slower everything runs.

1000 switches = 1000 half-closed tabs 🧠💀
