  • Maybe a rough/okay approximation but it is to my understanding that in order to perfectly simulate the universe and everything in it, we must first understand the entire system; which we have not.

    We have made incredible advances in protein folding, I don’t see why sound waves wouldn’t be possible to estimate.

    Do I know how to go about it? Not really, I imagine knowing the inside of the rock would be quite the feat, maybe X-ray crystallography to map out all the intricacies of the rock and such but you’re better off asking a sound engineer.

    Any ideas gang?










  • I’m sorry you feel this way. I’m gonna generalize quite a bit to help explain.

    In regard to stimulants, they can help those that cannot do. ADHD brains are wired a bit differently and so in this case the brain could actually do with a little more stimulation. Addiction is always possible in situations where abuse is prevalent. But just think of it as kicking a ball that’s standing still. It takes more work to get it into the goal.

    The reason they’re “bad” in “normal” people is because the brain is already functioning at its best. Adding stimulation here is a fast path to addiction because you’re adding stimulation that is not needed, therefore forming a dependency as the brain will think it needs to make less of its own chemicals. Here you can think of addiction as a ball that is already in motion that gets passed to the kicker and canon kicked into the goal. Here there is less work being done to get that addiction potential going.

    People always assume it’s fun to be on these meds. To be honest a lot of people say they suck the absolute life out of you. I personally hate taking them, I haven’t for 6+ months. But it’s quite necessary for us to focus and get shit done.

    edit: personally they’re life changing as it showed me a view on life that I had never experienced. Things were flowing as they should. No hiccups or setbacks. Eventually you get used to that new life and can taper down as you grow older.



  • You got this! But I totally know how you feel.

    Every interaction that is neutral is taken as me not being interested enough. Every interaction that is met with excitement is taken as me being way too over the top interested.

    ADHD is about finding that sweet balance and applying it to life. It just sucks that it’s always a constant chore rather than something we just get used to.

    I like to post here way too much because I found out people in my field don’t really like to talk about the science lmfao, more of a “you just have to know it” type of vibe and I love getting deep into the “why”

    Is it bad for me to do this? Maybe. It’s not really experience gained for later on since it’s not directly gained from someone in my field. But it sure helps me understand how I can communicate ideas in a meaningful way rather than just blurt out the word cloud in my head.

    Social media… ah
