In countries around the world drunk driving is illegal though it seems like driving with paranoia is acceptable. So why don't drunk drivers argue that they have paranoia instead?

Reading more on search with #Mastodon. After reading about #Searchtodon and @anildash lastest piece I then read this one from @ben on his $0.02 and efforts to build a bot to detect scrapers.

I'm still forming my opinions (maybe more on that later) but Ben covers a few corners of the discussion I haven't seen brought up yet.

(54/100)

The second portion of the challenge has finally started today. This part includes that a requirement is at least one practice problem or 25 min of reading. Also might start tracking the time spent during such study sessions and hoping to see at least 100 min effort per day on average.

Summary:

Class: 2

(53/50)

Things not to do is wait for the last 7h to turn in the homework... well that is one way to do an all-nighter. Will be skipping class that would have started in 3h.

That concludes the first 50 days of the challenge. It will be extended by at least a month, since that's when approximately finals are. For the second portion, I will probably add additional criteria.

Continued with homework. Took maybe 5min to solve. I feel that should be the minimum requirement for a successful day.

Summary:

Homework: 1

(43/50)

Came across a message from the author of "Atomic Habits" and realized what I have been trying to do is create such a habit through this challenge. The key thing that stuck with me is the idea of "showing up", where it's better to do 5min than skip a day.

Additionally, I remembered that my local markdown editor on mobile has a LaTeX renderer and will ease the process when importing into R-Studios.

So I digitalized the physical notes from yesterday.
