+I have decided to make this blog a draft indefinitely to minimize it's publicity. I leave the reasoning behind this as something for the reader to infer from the title and content of the article.
+
+# Some people think I'm broadly competent
+
+This is mostly an online phenomenon (it may be just one person) and I don't know where this comes from but it also seems to filter into how old they think I am (leading to an overestimation of somewhere between a couple and several years). Regardless this is false though I will clarify that in terms of math and programming I am relatively competent. I chose those words carefully to reduce the probability of my ego crucifying me, notably I consider relatively competent a low bar.
+
+# Writing
+
+Read my blog posts and tell me I'm competent at writing while keeping a straight face.
+
+# Time management
+
+Time management has been something I've struggled with for some years now. Frankly the fact that my grades in college are decent is a miracle (I had such a close shave with my econ class though lmao). I spend way to much time on youtube and I'm not sure how to deal with that to be honest. Regardless I'm at least in a state where things are better at the moment but who knows how long that will last.
+
+# Presentations
+
+Okay so the reason I'm putting this is because the person who's comment induced this writing readily accepted my advice on a presentation for unknown reasons. But seriously when making a presentation all I do is just have the bullet points be maximally short sentence fragments and trust in the speaker to be competent at speaking. Longer bullets make the speaker redundant, animations are distracting and you'll know when you need an image (assignments which mandate a minimum amount of images suck).
+
+# Misc life things
+
+Need to talk to people more, my diet sucks, I don't have a partner and no idea how I'd change that if it becomes a higher priority, I need to get better at not accidentally taking the lead in group work, I don't have an internship and no idea how to get one or how I should get a job. I have a bunch of stories I've come up with that I want to write down but I haven't written yet. I have no idea how to make a machine learning thing.
+
+# Conclusion
+
+Scot why do you think I look competent if it's confidence please readjust your view of competence

 # Why am I writing this?
 
-Well today (the first day of writing this post) after I got done with my operating systems lab on my way out I noticed someone trying to use ChatGPT to help them with the lab. The lab was pretty simple (relatively speaking) all you had to do was modify a version xv6 to print a message while in kernel mode and to have an additional userland program that did the same thing that echo did. However while the lab was simple the nature of why it was simple made it so using ChatGPT to help was almost certainly harder than just doing the lab. And that is why I want to write this. While other people more popular who are better at writing and understand this phenomenon better have definitely written about this before and it's somewhat "obvious"<sup><a href="#1">1</a></sup> when you think about it I still want to write about it because it's a little depressing that people fail to learn and get dependent on crutches.
