If it's really true that multiple keys of the keyboard will be recognized as chords, maybe I can train my fingers to ignore the slight misalignment between rows and learn how to play the qwerty keyboard like a steno machine.

On the hardware side of things, I just ordered a Sidewinder X4, which I mentioned in an earlier post. * Finding an alternative to SendKeys - possibly using the script found in the last comment of this?
#SKWR THE DON PLUS#
* Revising Plover so that it's compatible with SendKeys as it is (might be tricky because pyserial requires Python 2.3 or later plus my heart bucks against the idea of regressing backwards into the unsupported Pythonic past.) * Figuring out a way of updating SendKeys so it's compatible with Python 3. We've been writing Plover in Python 3.1, so it doesn't work. The problem is that SendKeys was written for Python 2.1 and was last updated in 2003.

#SKWR THE DON CODE#
I want to call people who work with Ukrainian partners not to terminate their contracts (because such situations already exist) but to support Ukrainian defenders.Well, my tutor and I didn't get any code written today the lesson was taken up with trying to make SendKeys work, with next to no success. I am writing this here on LinkedIn because this is a place where you can reach an audience worldwide. Our mission now is to make the whole world finally understand that Russia is an aggressor, and the situation in Ukraine is not an internal conflict, but war - a real war in which blood is shed, and people die for the eighth year in a row. I am so proud of fellow Ukrainians now - ordinary people who are doing their best to repel the enemy: spread the information over the Internet, make charitable contributions, create centers of territorial defense, and express the willingness to defend their land! We will not give up because we love our country despite everything, and we will fight for it! He is trying to intimidate us, make us give up, and undermine our country's economic situation. For some reason, our "neighbor" decided that he has the right to take away what is ours - the land on which we live. I rarely post anything on LinkedIn, but I cannot remain silent in this situation.Īll Ukrainians are currently going through a very difficult time. It underscores what the positive psychology research teaches us: that success is enjoyable, but it's much greater when we love the people we achieve it with. Like Raheem Morris (Defensive Coordinators for the LA Rams), Larry Foote (former Linebacker for the Steelers, now coaching in Tampa Bay) and a few of his current coaches. And this mindset clearly has helped him to achieve what he has.īut there was one more big thing that I noticed that's worth sharing: the time when he lit up the most is when he saw and talked about other guys that were in the room. You could just feel the authenticity when he talked about how much comfort seeking bothers him. My wife doesn't provide me comfort, my Mom doesn't provide me comfort when we're getting smashed in the mouth out there, I don't want to hear that 'I'm doing my best.' I want to hear, 'you need to make some changes and start succeeding.'"Ĭhapter 2 of "Leadership is a Relationship," is all about accountability that's really what he was talking about here.but in ALL CAPS. "While people might think they are helping you out by providing you comfort, I don't want them anywhere near me. Coach Tomlin has a 70 year old guy on his staff, who "doesn't give a damn about what I've accomplished" and whose #1 mission is to make sure he hears the ground truth.Īnd this is where the elite performance and high intensity mindset shined the brightest: Things go wrong all the time, don't look for people to make you feel better when it does.

He spent the most time, by far, on this theme. over time, that will build a much stronger network for you.ģ. Instead, focus on your doing your job exceptionally well and focus on the people in "your team room". Stop spending so much time trying "to build a network" via social media, conferences, etc. Growing close and establishing intimate bonds is essential to success.Ģ. People reach their potential when leaders lean in and care about their success-and relentlessly challenge them to grow. Unique results don't happen without unique relationships. Like a lot of leaders that are as busy & high profile as he is, he rarely does speaking engagements.so getting a glimpse into his mindset was absolutely awesome. Throughout the rest of the day, 30+ coaches talked to me 1:1 about how timely and relevant the message is it’s always awesome to hear that your words make a difference.Ī huge bonus of the weekend was spending time in the same space as Coach Mike Tomlin. On Saturday in Miami, I had the opportunity to give my "Leadership is a Relationship" speech to 150 NFL and college football coaches.
