Fascinating.

First let’s start with a little test for you to take. Watch the video:

And as well, with all the ads on the internet, it trains us to ignor. But I think sometimes we ignor the things we might have wanted to see, if we had just looked at it.

I think the internet numbs us to many aspects, inattention being just one. How many of us, including me, are now even more sceptical of ads that offer great deals? How many do we pass up that may be the real deal?

I've been coming to mjtnet.com forum for a while now, and I still look up and find I didn't know this or that, just because I wasn't looking around. Tunnel vision, I guess.

Isn't that what ALL programmers have? Tunnel vision.

PepsiHog. Yep! I drink LOTS of Pepsi (still..in 2021) AND enjoy programming. (That's my little piece of heaven!)
