Adderall days

Jesus christ you have to be kidding me.

from what I undestand:
R: more popular with social science / econ people
numpy/scipy: more popular with hard science people
matlab: the only thing that fucking engineers use, ever

(what I'm talking about isn't just anecdotal evidence, it is my experience)

I need to smoke less weed and take more Adderall.
Alright, maybe just the Adderall.

I would say R is worth learning if the alternative is Basic, yeah. It's all I've ever used for analysis so I can't say if it's better than SAS or whatever. But it's free and it works.

i don't know anything about money and trading or whatever, but it looks like R is really popular for quant. finance stuff.

the standard modeling library thingy:

I've spent the last let's say like 12 years in a drowsy haze and it's been pretty much completely awful.

the only time I took adderall I only got really insistent on drinking more and more and then I lectured everyone on anabaptism and other nonsense and left purple vomit in the front yard.

I'm in a social science program and I'm learning R

I prefer STATA though, even though it can't do as much

i took about two 25mg pills within an hour of each other at about 11:00 am and noon one day this summer, terrible mistake in hindsight (DO NOT DO THIS)

i went to bed around midnight and fell asleep around 5:00 am (trying to go to sleep this whole time)

I have one of these days coming up with the amount of work I have this week, might be tomorrow, but not working at home and having to deal with people in public while I'm jittery on adderall doesn't sound too appealing.

the adderall jitters in your muscles when you're doing a sporting event are something, not sure if it's a good something or bad something, but it's a something

it's more about the next day that I'm worried about. I have an insane work week ahead and have to keep up with consistent work rather than that post-hazy sludge of waking up from adderall, usually wanting more to combat the feeling.

major league baseball recently banned the use of amphetamines. they had been a pretty standard daily supplement for ballplayers for like 50+ years

anyway in baseball the road team wins like 45% of the time on average. since amphetamines have been banned road teams win like 36% of day games. lolz

my shits are 10mg and i usually break them in half so they're just 5. y'all are crazy


vyvanse is weaker. 20mg is about the same as 6 or 7mg of adderall.

I was also about 120lbs at 6'3

I used to listen to Hey Jude and cry when I came down

also my job made me go to rehab

Haven't done it in like a year
