There seem to be two Flow books by the same author :

Flow: The Psychology of Happiness

Finding Flow: The Psychology of Engagement With Everyday Life

Which one are you recommending?


not the GP, but start with Flow. Flow is the famous, classic one. Finding Flow is a later expansion/restatement -- it's good enough in its own right, but Flow is the lodestone


I agree with the guy who already answered. Flow is the one I read and found super interesting.


I agree. I know there is a lot to Git and you can pretty much do everything. But whenever such discussions come up about how many options there are and how amazing it is, I just glaze over and completely fail to concentrate. I don't think I have the brain power to actually master Git. Luckily I work in a 2 man team, so rarely do I need to do anything particularly complex. I have my workflow and I do what I can not to stray from it.


My macbook disconnects from wifi once per day, quite consistently. I'm just used to it now, and reconnect and within a minute or so I am good to go again.


Things like that are why I wired network to all the important places - like my desk. I work from home. I don't want to think about wifi issues. I think I'd have to spend quite a bit to get wifi that was as solid as being on the wire - and that just isn't worth it to me. I never trust wifi to work, but that said I do have an Echo on each floor of my house and they are wifi only. Once in a while I notice they are spinning blue while they reconnect, but I don't know the last time that it didn't work when I tried to use it.


I signed up specifically so I could follow Trumps tweets post election. It seems this is where government policy is going to be formed for a while.


Interesting. I had similar problems on my Samsung several years ago when I was trying Snapchat out. I uninstalled and never returned..


Out of curiosity, what makes a design interesting for you?

To me a laptop is two rectangular bits, with a screen on one and a keyboard on another. My macbook has silver rectangular bits, that Dell has black rectangular bits. I don't really see any other significant difference between the two..


simply the design make it look like oozes class.

(im getting downvoted soon, but i can take it :) )


The freezer is your friend.


I would love to work out a way of making sardines more palatable. I do force myself to eat them, but it is a real struggle.


I find that the secret is to try different cans of sardines until you find one you like. Also, what I do is I heat up sardines in the can they came in but I drain a bit of the oil and I add some cilantro, lime juice, thai peppers, and/or garlic. That way they can come out of the oven warm and go right on toast.


they make sardines in sriracha at the acme near me. it is the best thing to happen to my snacktime this year


I think a big part of the problem is I have aspegers and thus find human conversation exceptionally confusing - thus very poor social skills. I am however, aware that this is also very likely to just be an excuse, and I want to just push past it.

I will look up that book, thanks.
