I used to run in consulting circles, long enough time around execs and you start to see just how well the good ol boy clubs, and know-a-guy chains can make business deals between firms. Once you get the ball rolling on a project as a large enough entity, it doesn’t take much to consult the digital equivalent of their rolodex to find vendor upon vendor for this part, this data broker, etc.
Cheaper in bulk too.
Very true, but a happy commodity.
Okay I mayyyy be glossing over the occasional pee stains, bad scheduling, overly expensive tickets, and occasional fella high out of his gourd taking the occasional break from his hazed trance to scream at me because I’m secretly the devil.
Just the colors of life I say.
In a car I am in constant conflict, constant in risk.
In a plane I am but a commodity, worth only my payment.
In a bus we are a union, to endure together, and one another.
In a train we are a tribe, fortified in goals, interests, as philosophers of old.

Easy points to start with. Generally, keeping a neutral view on something new, and striving to maintain a trust but verify attitude is your absolute best bet. The more you understand global politics, especially current agendas of various nations, political groups, etc. can help to discern one bias or another. In general, giving yourself room and time to properly process any information you encounter, and especially destress yourself, makes a huge difference.
I actually help train for combating disinformation and the such, I could forward you a few docs if you’re interested in the read.
Use your words bro just talk.
Writing takes a HELL of a long time to start getting good, usually a million words or so, and that’s not guaranteed success. Physics, as others have mentioned takes mathematics to a high level, have you looked at other aspects of sciences and math if you at least enjoy it?
If you’d like to get some career guidance, I do alot of training and mentorship pro-bono, drop me a message might be able to help a little.
Lmao you okay good buddy?
Lots of great reccomendations here, highly reccomend looking into a sleep study or rework schedule like other folks are reccomending. Aside from that keeping a regimented schedule is always helpful, especially with reducing screen and bright light use near periods of rest.
Besides physiological stuff, reducing stress helps, learning what helps you personally sleep and wake up better and integrating that into you habits can help tons. I’ve found being able to even spend a short few minutes to properly reflect on the day can help change my mindset makes a difference.
Personally I’m quite big fan of self-hosting, but if you want less a hassle, def try some of the other suggestions.
Since you’re interested in anon file sharing, I’d really recommend you take some time to really think out just what your personal definition of anonymous is, and how well it fits in modern digital infrastructure. True anonymous activity is nearly impossible, you can be fingerprinted by even writing a file to a drive to hand to someone. Every action taken online has some trace to it, while IP is generally not precise information, with enough data overlap you can be reasonably guessed depending on how much effort someone is willing to put into it.
So you know, good luck finding a balance lol.
