As a chemist when I read such a title I already know it’s one of those organic chemistry rule of thumb rules. All of them are named and most of them old and from text books. Such rules are useful rules for drawing stick figures of molecules. They are not the same as actual rules of physics for example.

But it’s always cool when someone finds out how to make molecular structures we thought wouldn’t work.

They also do not descriminate against evidence based on reliability.

To me you turning your life around sounds impressive. Despite your condition you achieved something awesome. Software developer sounds like as good a job as any. Absolutely respectable in my book. And you got plenty of time to climb the career ladder.

Also if you hang with lots of smart people and don’t think of yourself as smart, chances are you are smarter than you give yourself credit for.

You hit the nail on the head. It is obvious what needs to happen but it is also obvious that it won’t happen because nobody sees a way to make it happen.

Sadly? I’m not sure either is better than the other tbh.

Roll a die to die.

It’s a wholesome community of people painting tiny figures to play with or look at. Also so many great painters already but also welcoming go newcomers.

Biggest cost factor is the people working in a book store per book sold as well as their pay is mich higher for a book store. As an upside you get people who can actually recommend you great books based on your interests. The insane book love and knowledge those people often have is astonishing to me. That’s what I very much am fine with paying a bit extra for.
