The zoning out part sounds like disassociation. It’s kinda like your brain flatlines or something for a second? I run into that and my psychiatrist prescribes the Strattera generic for it. I would advise speaking with a professional about it. I jumped around between a few different prescriptions before that.

I think I’ve experienced a similar things with the emotional void and aimlessness. Took some years to process past trauma that I think was the cause and I think things are looking up, relatively. If you haven’t already, speaking with a therapist would be a good idea. If nothing else, it’ll help you by just letting you say things out loud so you can hear it. Rubber ducking, basically. Therapists also have good advice and feedback, usually, too.

I believe it’s self explanatory.

Yea, just copy/pasting code without already understanding it is a bad move.

If you deliberately drive GPT into a certain direction with the prompts about a specific topic and the model has been trained on the subject matter, its accuracy will be higher. If you ask GPT about a less popular language that it has little or no training on, its answer will likely be garbage.

I’ve been going through The Odin Project for full stack web development. It’s been great and is completely free.

I would advise against using Chat GPT or any other LLM; they “hallucinate” and can give you wrong information.

That was happening to me with the Fossify SMS Messenger app on F-Droid. Turns out it was the default settings.

Sending group/long messages as MMS and setting the MMS image size to no limit fixed it for me.
