too deep bruh

it's just that stupid rainbow fish

if you ask me to think of a fish i just grab whatever fucking image comes to mind first

and then it's stuck unless you change the input variables

So, you need to dig a ditch betwixt the wavepool & ocean.

but even then i only know what i saw

i can't 'see' it

you're literally telling me to 'suck it up'

it's a literal brain condition you know

i can't just close my eyes and think really hard to fix it

No, I'm saying figure a way to work around it.

yeah i have

memorization is bullshit

Well, no. It's a useful skill.

i can't deny it is but in some areas more than others

True.

if i position myself in such a way that i never have to memorize anything

then the problem goes away yes?

I'm a code monkey, so instead of memorizing code and tricks, i just remember where i used something similar

then i can look at that and extrapolate

It's avoided for sure, but ameliorated? No, it's evaded.

my memory is a pile of shit, but my extrapolation skills are rather extravagent

i can work through things rather easily and given only a few details i can make a wider picture

instead of memorizing how to do specifics i focus on 'how' to perform actions

Interesting.

in math i used to try and memorize shit

in math classes when i was forced to memorize lots of specifics and crap i did terribly

but when everything revolved around the 'how' of fairly few concepts i excelled

cause if everything can be boiled down to a few fundamentals

then it can be built up to specifics

True.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

the adderal is just because i have the brain of a squirrel though

As said, no judgment there.

i mean

you'd have to be pretty damn petty to judge that

it's like judging someone for taking tylenol for a headache instead of just 'drinking water'

Nah, judgmental is the default assumed position on forums like these.

I disagree

it's not judgement

it's negative opinion
