Protip: create a passphrase instead of a password. Way harder to guess, way easier to remember.

Just tell it to me and I will help you if your ever forget it again :)

Yeah depression sucks :(

You could write down the passphrase on a piece of paper and hide it in a book or something. Most hacks happen via malware, database leaks, or social engineering anyway. Just don't lend out the book to anyone accidentally lmao.

No system is perfect, unfortunately.

I hope you have a lovely day :)

Hey bud,

Random dude here, keep doing what you may enjoy, take time out if you think stuff is too much as it's OK to not be OK.

The D word isn't taboo as you think so I'm glad you mentioned it here, just take each day as they come, you're going to have bad and some better days, look for positive things and as I say remember to self care.

Big hugs from a random dude.

I know this is /c/memes, but do you use any memorization techniques? Spaced repetition is a basic but extremely useful one.
Cramming is terrible for learning because you need to repeat things with longer and longer intervals to truly remember it long-term. Thankfully learning with this method can be LESS work even though it's much more effective.

I can really recommend Anki to anyone who wants to try this. Such a good software

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

Thanks for the recommendation, that looks pretty sweet and it’s FOSS so I’ll definitely check it out

When the test ends and suddenly you remember the answer to that one question.

Worst feeling I've had in my academic career, bar none.

When I took my final for my last Calc class in college I told my professor beforehand that I had a bucket of math knowledge in my brain and after the exam I was gonna dump it out and fill it with beer. He didn't think it was funny.
