LPT Request: How can I make my mouse quieter? I have the Logitech M185 and it is not extremely loud but I worry that it will wake the other people in the house when I click a lot. I heard that a mousepad will help but it is still just as loud. Is there something I can do other than buy a different mouse to make it quieter? submitted by /u/Mincelo

LPT: Don’t rush through tasks when you’re new at a job When you’re new in a role and can finish a task much faster than expected, it’s tempting to turn it in right away. However, it’s a good idea to hold off for a bit before submitting it. This gives you time to double-check your work for accuracy and ensures you haven’t missed any important steps. It also prevents managers from overloading you with…

LPT: Encourage someone to continue their story after an interruption If someone is interrupted while telling a story, make it easy for them to pick up where they left off. Simply say, “As you were saying about (x),” or something similar when the interruption is over.

Good way to save some money for things you wanted to buy anyway. ED for definition: re-targeting is a Marketing effort where they track your actions on their website/online shop, and realize they need to “activate” you after you’ve shown inaction.

LPT – if you’re a cyclist that rides in the winter and uses Strava, add the starting temp of the ride (33F) and whether it got colder (33-) or warmer (33+) in the title of your ride and in the private notes, document what you wore and if you were warm/cold/etc. You can also do this in a spreadsheet. I’ve done this for a while after never remembering which gloves to wear when it’s x degrees. The first cold rides aren’t as big a deal any more since I can look for the temps and see what worked last time. I also note how long it took to get warm if that was an issue on that ride. submitted by /u/Couldbeaccurate

LPT: Show, don’t tell—follow through on what you say People respect actions more than words. If you make a commitment, follow through. Whether in work, relationships, or personal growth, being reliable and consistent speaks louder than any promise you make. submitted by /u/ZoeyReynolds23

LPT: When you’re wrong, admit it quickly and move on Trying to defend an indefensible position only makes things worse. Owning up to mistakes shows maturity, builds trust, and prevents unnecessary conflict. People respect honesty more than stubbornness. submitted by /u/IslaWells33

LPT: Remember the difference between rows and columns I had always struggled to remember the difference between the two, and always had just assumed they were subjective terms. But then I took linear algebra, and really had to buckle down and understand matrices. To be fair I did not come up with this, but here’s what helped me to always remember the difference: When you go to the movies, or a conc…

LPT Request: Waking up in the middle of the night and can’t get back to sleep – what actually works? It’s 5am, and I’ve been awake since 1am after falling asleep at midnight. This has been happening a lot lately. I’ve always struggled with falling asleep, but now I’m also waking up in the middle of the night and just… lying there. For hours.

LPT: If you need to take your phone out in a place like a locker room for whatever reason, point it at the floor. I had an issue in high school at one point where my phone beeped while I was holding it, and I wasn’t pointing it at the floor. Someone thought I had taken a picture even though it was “pointed” at the wall and the beep sounded nothing like a camera. You can imagine how well that went. Though I didn’t get suspended or anything, that was the only…
