More #strangeloop thoughts. I have a hard time gauging when sensory nuisances impact my stress level, so went with wearing ear protection as much as possible.
I intentionally wore the big yellow gun range protectors not just to make it easier to find me, but to more openly show that wearing ear protection is a thing. Had I known it earlier, many conferences would have been much easier to attend.

It allowed me to keep my fatigue and energy level in an almost normal range, and I didn’t crash or even need to rest when coming home, despite being in active brain mode during the conference itself too.
In fact I managed to finish the chat tui mode for Pinocchio and fill 30 pages in my sketchbook, as well as have a great in depth hacking and brainstorm session with a friend from rc, who might be the first person to “get” what I’m trying to build. that was very energizing.
