  • That’s great news. I’m glad I could help. I find that when you roll with your ADHD instead of against it, for certain problems like this, you can often find some peace and flow. Let yourself wander, and don’t feel like your personal projects are obligations in some way; they’re yours, so they can just be yours… unfinished or finished, good or bad.


  • I want to do a programming project with Lisp; but I can’t start a project; there’s so many ideas to choose.

    I’ve dealt with this. The trick is to do one that you don’t care too much about. You think of a crappy idea, and you start it. After a couple weeks of working on it in your free time, you might get bored and start some other idea and decide to come back to it later. It’s okay—start the new thing. You may not ever come back to it (I almost never do) but it will break your block. Eventually you’ll have a halfway decent idea that you’ll keep working on for a longer period of time, and you’ll be satisfied.


  • I won’t comment on the disagreement you two have, but I want to tell you that despite your disclaimer you have lost all credibility by linking to Project Veritas. Not digging on you, personally, but they literally fabricate stories to fit a far-right and conservative-funded agenda. It’s what they do, and it’s public knowledge. So, linking to their disinformation in order to support an argument you are making constitutes either a complete lack of awareness or active collaboration. Neither is a great look.
