I commute to work by train and even though I have great headphones and listen to music on Spotify some mornings it just crackles in my ears. The audio is fine, but I'm extra sensitive sometimes.
At the office people are sometimes very loud. They are excited and having fun but when it goes over my sensory limit (which varies a lot) I become unable to do anything. Ears crackling with headphones means I can't shut their noise out either. And we're supposed to be social at the office but they talk about stuff I don't know what to say about.
When I get home I am beyond exhausted. Can't sleep because of anxiety or adrenaline or something. I just zombie out streaming series or movies while reading Hacker News, Reddit or Bluesky. I promise myself I'll go to sleep early but if I do I can't fall asleep until 2-4am. If I stay up until 1am I have better chance of falling asleep faster.
Weekends are spent catching up with sleep, wanting to tidy up and do side projects as well as gaming but most times I spend half the day in bed and then stay up gaming or something because it is my time and I want to do the fun stuff. Rince and repeat unless I get lucky and catch 10 to 12 hours of sleep.
I'm a 47 year old female principal engineer. I feel like I'm just drifting through the days and months. But I do live my work, the people and challenges. I just wish I could deal with everything better.
Thanks for making this game.

It is almost impossible to produce a useful result, far as I’ve seen, unless one eliminates that mistake from the context window.
There are so many times where I get to a point where the conversation is finally flowing in the way that I want and I would love to "fork" into several directions from that one specific part of the conversation.
Instead I have to rely on a prompt that requests the LLM to compress the entire conversation into a non-prose format that attempts to be as semantically lossless as possible; this sadly never works as in ten did [sic].
Here worth noting is that the superior variant has been chosen, well done.
That person was apparently trying to be humane, in her own personal way. Possibly ingenuous, probably in good faith and intention.
