Do you have some methods to increase your reading?
I changed the font on my kindle to open dyslexic & it made a huge difference in my ability to focus on what I’m reading. You’ll know pretty quickly if it will work for you.
- Is there global autocorrect for linux?

Effect of Perceptual Load on Performance Within IDE in People with ADHD Symptoms
Too bad the article is not open-access, as I would expect from JetBrains.
Extra cognitive load slows everyone. It's just that the effect is measurably distinct in people with executive function (distractability) issues, with respect to speed. The distinction between debugging and coding is not really active vs monotonous but driven by your own ideas vs chasing (a problem). The study isn't realistic, but it's designed to get a measurable result (and to showcase the "efficiency tracking" plugin).
Anecdotally, everyone adjusts their IDE, or accommodates what can't (easily) be changed. Too bad that wisdom is lost and hard to share.
I think the solution here is more configurable UI's, with the configuration being automated/scriptable so that once you've established your preferences, you can replicate them through upgrades, etc.
The most configurable IDE of course is Eclipse (which is in decline because no one gets paid directly to write for it, and it's cheaper to publish a language server for your new language than build an IDE). You can arrange views as you like, change menu and toolbar visibility, change key bindings, and of course add whatever plugins/features you need. You can save view configurations as a workspace and save various preferences. But because components come from everywhere, support for configuration capture varies.
People share their dotfiles for shell and vi/emacs configuration, but not their IDE configurations. It's too bad, because then there would be a configuration population to analyze when raising UI issues.
ADHD and ASD are a broad spectrum. It may help to join the tribe because it validates our experience, but then we can fail to recognize our brain's specific biases. Worse, anyone over 7 has been getting good at compensating, which hides the issue, and our culture of excellence/competition/success == good (therefore failure bad) further obscures with shame, defeat, and self-sabotage. Legal requirements for accommodation help set a global floor, but may also work as a local ceiling by supplanting ordinary fellow-feeling.
For reading fatigue, consider a dyslexia font, e.g., https://opendyslexic.org.

Dyslexia font support
GitHub link Website link Source license SIL-OFL I've come across this font that aims to make reading easier for people with dyslexia and I've never seen it implemented before. I feel like it would be really cool if it got implemented into more things :)
- I am genuinely confused about this and have been for a while, but always felt like I'd look stupid if I asked. Do historians not know what year he was born? Surely he would've known, and I imagine he would've told people.

Boosts v2.5 wishlist
I would really like to see OpenDyslexic as a font option in boosts

Does this happen to you guys as well?
https://opendyslexic.org This is where it was made I think you can download an add on here to change all your fonts, as well as ‘most’ applications use open dyslexia or dyslexia open as the font name

Python Is Portable
The reality is a bit different, the work on Python 3.6 was checked into the Cosmopolitan repo and I have been able to use it for production workloads that are in pure python. [0]
As Cosmopolitan Libc has evolved, it has been possible to compile more software without modifications, and that includes latest Python through a project called superconfigure[1].
Last person who tried to reproduce it from scratch did it last week (granted it too them a few days of solid work) but in the end they ended with a portable binary with Python 3.11.9, brotli, ssl and asyncio for their work related project.[2]

Ask HN: What Underrated Open Source Project Deserves More Recognition?
Cosmopolitan https://github.com/jart/cosmopolitan and https://justine.lol/cosmopolitan/index.html
Some genius realized that you can actually embed valid win32 programs inside valid posix shell scripts, and found a way to make a C cross-platform solution out of it, meaning that you can write C programs that compile to a single executable that will run on (quoting the site) Linux + Mac + Windows + FreeBSD + OpenBSD + NetBSD + BIOS
It all started from this post.
- Cosmopolitan – build-once run-anywhere C library
-
Show HN: Usr/bin/env Docker run
For this .args file, put one argument per line. This will run on start. You can use `/zip/mydepencency.anything` to read from files, but if you have an executable dependency you'll need to extract it first.
You can do this with any software you can compile with comsocc, by adding a call to LoadZipArgs[1] in the main function.
It'seasy to get started, your ideas will branch out as soon as you start playing with it.

Ask HN: ANSI escape sequences reference docs?
Check out this comment by jart (cosmpolitan author) here: https://github.com/jart/cosmopolitan/issues/766#issuecomment...
it might help but not sure how comprehensive it is! would it be a bad idea for you to check out the source code of other popular emulators (maybe iTerm 2^0) ?

Actually Portable Vim (With a Cute Vimrc)
The binary was compiled with Cosmopolitan Libc [0], and therefore the binary will execute natively on Linux, Mac, Windows, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, and bare metal (BIOS boot).
I would call that portable.

Show HN: PyApp – runtime installer for Python applications
will go on my "to try" list where i already have cosmopolitan [2]. my last setup (windows) was shiv + wine + nsis (used that as pyinstaller had some issues)[2]
