What's a gal to do?! I can't concentrate on my study, for whatever reason, I'm dying for coffee I can't have & have to type with my gloves on! (Raynaud's is annoying!) Nerdcore is soothing me though, bit of Nursehella & MC Hawking. Any tips for getting over that "can't be arsed" unmotivated feeling? & any more Nerdcore recommendations?

There isn't some other form of treatment besides always having to wear gloves and socks?

Hmm. Kind of a surprising coincidence, but here at my work we've been looking for gloves that hold up to rough work yet allow the wearer to type on a computer. What kind of glove do you use?

Can you have tea, or hot chocolate?
 
Loseyourname (great Plathiness btw I love her) http://www.nhs.uk/Conditions/Raynauds-phenomenon/Pages/Treatment.aspx I don't use any treatments or meds myself as I have a number of other conditions& can manage it with self-help :-)

Lisab, I have a pair of knitted fingerless gloves that have a patch of suede on the palm, they turn into mittens too!

Anything that contains caffine is right out so no cuppas for me unless I am wrapped up warm, I tend to stick to peppermint & camomile

Hope you are both enjoying your Monday!

Similar to the 2024 thread, here I start the 2025 thread. As always it is getting increasingly difficult to predict, so I will make a list based on other article predictions. You can also leave your prediction here. Here are the predictions of 2024 that did not make it: Peter Shor, David Deutsch and all the rest of the quantum computing community (various sources) Pablo Jarrillo Herrero, Allan McDonald and Rafi Bistritzer for magic angle in twisted graphene (various sources) Christoph...
Thread 'My experience as a hostage'
I believe it was the summer of 2001 that I made a trip to Peru for my work. I was a private contractor doing automation engineering and programming for various companies, including Frito Lay. Frito had purchased a snack food plant near Lima, Peru, and sent me down to oversee the upgrades to the systems and the startup. Peru was still suffering the ills of a recent civil war and I knew it was dicey, but the money was too good to pass up. It was a long trip to Lima; about 14 hours of airtime...
