The phrase "stop overthinking" is a thought-terminating cliché (i.e., a thought-stopper), expecially when said by those who spend their existence constantly underthinking. How about stop underthinking, and start thinking.
I converted my talk from #DjangoCon US 2024, "Troubleshooting is a Lifestyle ", into a full Blog Article.
Take a look and let me know what you think!
People-pleasing linked to gender differences in problem-solving

"[E]very year since the 1980s, the Monitoring the Future study has been asking 18-year-olds whether they have difficulty thinking, concentrating or learning new things. The share of final year high school students who report difficulties was stable throughout the 1990s and 2000s, but began a rapid upward climb in the mid-2010s.
This inflection point is noteworthy not only for being similar to performance on tests of intelligence and reasoning but because it coincides with another broader development: our changing relationship with information, available constantly online.
Part of what we’re looking at here is likely to be a result of the ongoing transition away from text and towards visual media — the shift towards a “post-literate” society spent obsessively on our screens.
The decline of reading is certainly real — in 2022 the share of Americans who reported reading a book in the past year fell below half.
Particularly striking however is that we see this alongside decreasing performance in the application of numeracy and other forms of problem-solving in most countries.
In one particularly eye-opening statistic, the share of adults who are unable to “use mathematical reasoning when reviewing and evaluating the validity of statements” has climbed to 25 per cent on average in high-income countries, and 35 per cent in the US."

Ars Technica: CMU research shows compression alone may unlock AI puzzle-solving abilities. “A pair of Carnegie Mellon University researchers recently discovered hints that the process of compressing information can solve complex reasoning tasks without pre-training on a large number of examples. Their system tackles some types of abstract pattern-matching tasks using only the puzzles […]
If you’re frustrated by slow growth, poor retention, or inconsistent revenue, chances are your business is like a puzzle with a missing piece.
It’s not always about working harder. Sometimes, it’s about finding the right piece—the right system, strategy, or tool that changes everything.
What’s one challenge in your practice that feels like a missing piece? Let’s discuss it in the comments!
If you can make an unknown situation look like one you already know how to handle, you can apply a well-known solution.
That is the topic of my latest blog post.

Was going to do something using #TiddlyWiki , but then read the updated FAQ and realised that closing and /or crashing the browser can lose all the info and so thought - well that's not ideal, but THEN realised that in #Obsidian
you can create a document with active url links and then just export to PDF and the web links still work so HUZZAH !
Spannendes „Reasoning“ von #Deepseek #R1 mit #Perplexity. Nur am Ende leider falsch. Tip: Wäre schön wenn „die KI“ wüsste wie man einen Geochecker bedient.
