Rumination

neurodivergent: differing in mental or neurological function from what is considered typical or normal (frequently used with reference to autistic spectrum disorders); not neurotypical

nuanced: ​with very slight differences in meaning or expression

rampant: existing or spreading everywhere in a way that cannot be controlled

Suggestibility is a psychological trait where an individual easily accepts and acts upon ideas, opinions, or information suggested by others, often without critical analysis.

groggy: weak and unsteady on the feet or in action

If someone or something is hardwired to do a particular thing, they automatically do it and cannot change that behavior.

We are not born with low self-esteem and ruminating thoughts.

人際敏感度高者容易把別人的反應內化為自我評價，進而反覆思考。

記錄思維：寫下反覆出現的想法，標註證據與反證，練習以不同角度詮釋。

Set

numbers = set([1, 2, 2, 3])

Square brackets [] in above example are just creating a list before converting it into a set.

Role of Square Brackets

• [1, 2, 2, 3] → this is a list literal in Python.

• Lists can contain duplicates and preserve order.

• Then set([...]) takes that list and removes duplicates, giving {1, 2, 3}.

So the square brackets are not part of the set itself — they’re simply defining the list that you pass into set().

如果年紀大了還常常運動，腦袋裡的「連接」會比較健康。

這些連接就像電線，把腦細胞連在一起。

運動能幫助腦袋製造更多「保護電線的材料」，讓腦細胞之間的訊息傳得更快、更清楚。

「保護電線的材料」不是髓鞘，而是另一類叫做突觸蛋白。它們不是包住神經的，而是幫助腦細胞之間的「接頭」更牢固，讓訊息在細胞之間傳遞得更好。

植物特寫

以三腳架 + 低 ISO + 小一點光圈 + 手動白平衡拍攝植物特寫

建議起始設定

拍攝模式：M 模式，方便固定曝光。

ISO：100，盡量保持最低以減少雜訊。

光圈：f/8 到 f/11，通常最實用；植物特寫要兼顧清晰度和景深，這個範圍較穩。

快門：有三腳架可先由 1/10s 到 1s 試拍，再看曝光是否足夠；如果植物會微微擺動，就要再加快。

對焦：單點 AF 或直接手動對焦，對在你最想清楚的位置，例如花蕊、葉脈、露珠邊緣。

影像防震：上三腳架時可關閉鏡頭 IS，避免防震系統在長曝下反而造成輕微抖動。

白平衡：室內有燈光，先用 AWB 試拍；如果顏色偏黃或偏綠，改用 鎢絲燈 / 白光管。

鏡頭焦段怎樣用

50mm 到 135mm 比較適合植物特寫，畫面會更自然，背景也更容易壓乾淨。

如果你想突出單一葉片、花朵局部，先試 85mm 到 135mm。

18mm 到 35mm 也能拍，但容易把背景和白布一起拍得太多，特寫感會弱一些。

室內白背景要注意

光線最好用柔光，例如燈照向白牆、柔光布、或反射到白紙板，避免葉面反光太硬。植物攝影也常靠穩定三腳架和適當控光來保細節。

拍攝小技巧

用 2 秒自拍或遙控，減少按快門震動。

背景白但不要過曝成一大片死白，保留一點層次會更好看。

若葉面反光明顯，可以稍微改變燈角度，比單純後製更有效。
