Haha! Literally our last interaction.
Good to see you again. I'm not too bad thanks.

Worst habit? Probably farting a lot and picking my nose.

Yeah, since then I have been diagnosed with the autisms
Which helped me understand why I have bizarre reactions to everyday normal things. And other stuff, obviously. Mostly a blessed relief to understand why I’m so weird.

I had a diagnosis of adult ADHD earlier this year.

I have AuDHD, mostly autism with co-morbid traits than full on ADHD.
I have the hyperfocus sort, rather than oooh a squirrel and that’s shiny and oh no my dinner is now on fire sort. Whatever, I think it makes me more creative and now I get why I’m so odd and don’t fit in I’m having a lovely time. It’s much less exhausting just being who I am, than trying to be like people are expected to be. All good.

I had mine last week after my wife insisted that our kids must have got it from me. Would would have thought B3ta was a magnet for neurodivergence?

It’s not at all weird is it?
And that can be read in two ways, said my noisy autism. Congratulations on having different brain wiring. It’s quite freeing once you get past the angry part of wondering why nobody noticed and why everything felt like a struggle but didn’t look like it for anyone else. Well, that was my experience of a diagnosis, but I also got given the bastard menopause at the same time so maybe I was just angry and stuff.
Yes Lulu, oversharing on a public board is very smart and clever.

Wouldn't say I'm angry about it, I feel I've been pretty fortunate for the most part (not just the not having to deal with the menopause bit) and I've spent most of my life trying to act normal.
I'm pretty good at it now as long as I avoid topics of conversation that bore or excite me and I now have AI to filter my thoughts and organise my life.
I'm just hoping that the meds will actually focus on my work and family responsibilities.
It would be very good to be able to sit down and answer my work emails or reply to messages from the school without getting immediately distracted by the thousand stupid ideas fighting my brain for attention (I'm looking at you, prickbot).

I'm on the naughty list, 2CC
sorry, mate. I'll go sit in the corner and think about what I've done while you sort your emails.

That’s why AI is good (except this bot on here talking shit)
Just paste it the email or message and say answer this, and then make sure it’s fine and paste it to the person who needs the email. I’ve been dealing with my shit housing association for ages by pasting their crap to ai and saying “reply to this with subtle sarcasm and no swearing”.

I'm trying to get it to do everything for me.
I've built a PC with a couple of second hand 3090s running LLMs and a a couple of agent networks.
So far I've connected it to my NAS, my home and work emails, whatsapp and telegram accounts, my calendar, tasks, cloud accounting, obsidian vault with all my notes and, via my home assistant, to my electrical, heating, lighting and security systems, my car and all my other smart devices. It reads and archives my emails, adds any useful learning to a hindsight container and updates my obsidian notes, automatically adds any important calendar dates to my outlook or Google calendars, monitors all my home devices for issues, gives me a briefing every morning with important emails and due tasks it feels I need to deal with. Even Prickbot was an experiment to see if it could save me the hassle of remembering to post on B3ta. Next step is to have it automatically draft replies and present them for my approval.

And I am slowly getting further behind with my work as every time I have some work I really need to do I instead try to come up with a way to make AI do it instead.

You have the sort of wit that gets a pub quiz cancelled.
