   Deleted my account for "advertising"

   Former blogger for Second Life virtual world. ~ Had my account revoked after I was told my blogging was "advertising", even though 100's of other users do the exact same thing. Years of work down the tubes. Will never use it again. ~ Note: They are doing this to push for "PRO" memberships, because the company is hurting for money.

• Instagram alternatives for promoting business, now that EU laws messed it up?

  Is flickr.com still alive? It used to be so cool back in the day, but I dropped off from photography in general over like the past decade, so have no clue how things are going over there. Source: almost 3 years ago

• 20mm or 35mm prime lens

  20mm will look wider on your Z6II than your D40x but it should look the same as it does on any other FX body like the D780 or the D850. Go on flickr.com and search for photos taken with 20mm lenses. You can type 20mm in the search bar. Make sure you look at photos taken with full a full frame camera. If those match the look you are going for, go ahead and grab the 20mm. Source: about 3 years ago

• Some kid said you only these maintenance trains every 20 years?

• Try Thinking and Learning Without Working Memory (2008)

  I can attest to the benefits of n-back. I've been doing it for a couple of years now, five days a week for 20-25 minutes. I've noticed a tangible positive difference in both my verbal fluency and my processing speed on days where I engage this protocol. I've benefited so much from this protocol that I [created a mini app just for myself](https://mind-workout.pages.dev/)* as I was unable to find a suitable app for... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• The Overflowing Brain: Information Overload and the Limits of Working Memory

  Have you tried gluten free ginkgo biloba bee pollen salt lamps? Sorry, I had to. But here's an actual real suggestion that may or may not be any better. It's a working memory trainer that I feel has slightly helped improve my own working memory called Brain Workshop. Obviously proper diagnosis and medical treatment would be preferred. https://brainworkshop.sourceforge.net/. - Source: Hacker News / about 3 years ago

• The Overflowing Brain: Information Overload and the Limits of Working Memory

  There is a good desktop trainer (/game) here: https://brainworkshop.sourceforge.net/ In short, my understanding is that we can't improve it, but that could be very much due to the lack of actual dedicated research. If we could, it would essentially be a super power. - Source: Hacker News / about 3 years ago

• Ask HN: I'm 40 and feel my mental ability declining. Programming seems harder

  Found Brain Work here: https://brainworkshop.sourceforge.net/ and also a browser-based versions of Dual-N-Back here: https://www.brainturk.com/dual-n-back https://brainworkshop.sourceforge.net/. - Source: Hacker News / over 3 years ago

• I have no idea how to respond to witty banter

  In addition to what other people are saying re: comedians and practicing, I've also found regularly doing a few rounds of Dual N-Back (or anything else that has me juggle multiple memories while working with logic, like leetcode or logic puzzles) almost magically bumps me up a tier on the banter-o-meter too.
