i'll get through like 50 pages feeling engaged and then someone asks me what happened and my brain is just static. is this a focus thing, a reading speed thing, or am i just built different in the worst way possible? looking for actual strategies that don't involve rereading everything three times.

Xmas parting coming up, IWTL to dance!

I have a work Christmas party coming up at the beginning of December. I am going with my partner, it is the firdt time we have been to something like this together, and I'd love to get up and dance with her.

I have never danced; I am worried about it, but if I were to have a few skills under my belt I might feel better about getting up and dancing if front of loads of other people.

What is the fastest way I can get decent / socially adept at this sort of thing?

Neither of us drink alcohol, so drinking for courage isn't an option. It will be a disco btw, with all the obvious tunes - I'm not trying to learn how to break dance.

Thank you in advance.

I have a terrible habit of buying houseplants then watching them slowly decline and eventually die. I've tried different watering schedules and sunlight amounts but nothing seems to stick. I'd love to learn how to identify what's actually wrong with a sad-looking plant and how to nurse it back to health. Any tips for a serial plant killer?

I want to work in publishing, but it's really frustrating to find resources. I don't live in a city with major publishing houses, so it's difficult to find internships where I could learn on the job. Certifications and books are far too expensive for me. What are some ways in which I can gain experience and build a portfolio?

Hi! I really want to improve my reading comprehension skills, but my vocab knowledge is absolutely dog water.

English isn’t my first language, and I have a hard time understanding scientific paragraphs when words I don’t know are all over the place.

I try using context clues, but my brain is often overloaded!

Any tips? :(

*that can be fixed with a screwdriver, a small brush, and a can of compressed air. This includes bits that have more points than a Phillips Head but things that require a flathead screwdriver as a pry bar are borderline.

I want to make my own game engine (in C or C++) and make it cross-platform (I code on a mac and occasionally on linux) and maybe add console exports like 3ds wii u or switch (really optional). I can't find a single good tutorial on how to make a 3d renderer...
