I'm worse though, just in a different way.

Agreed.

No, I'm young-ish (33) and I agree.

TUI's are just a very restricted type of GUI's. These restrictions make the devs focus on what is important, because there is literally no room for bullshit. These UI's pack more punch per pixel and thus make for a more productive experience - if you're so inclined.

While I like true CLI TUIs, I can also live with TUI-like interface in the browser. I just like the style of them, the compactness, the cleanness. They will never go out of style. They are too productive.

Good idea.

Through my genius I've come to the conclusion that primes are related to entropy. There is no hope.

Everything is going to shit and we are all going to die in a horrible, horrible fire while being trampled by giant T-Rexes.

Do you even play, bro? Building is not performed while standing still, also it is quite finicky. Walking around touching the screen will get old really fast.

I think things are going to split up even more:

- languages for physicists - languages for game developers - languages for business apps - languages for mobile apps - etc

These domains turn out - IMHO - to have vastly different needs and are better served by specialist tools. Some of them textually, some of them visually (game design: Unreal's blueprint).

Airbus agrees Boeing should make its software opensource.

Just keep walking and ignore them. Claim your space. For some reason they find out in the last fucking second you are walking there after all and they should make space. This is just dominance, they knew you were coming and decided to ignore you.

Yes, I would and it would be true too.

Oh right, I forgot to mention I'm not a wage slave and not in a hurry to become one either.

I was talking about actual business opportunities. Good luck getting anywhere by being friendly to the, quick frankly, annoyingly arrogant sysadmin. Sure, some of them are nice - although most of them aren't because of the nature of the job, but that's not the point. We all are "nice" people, that does not pay the bills.

Network above your pay-grade, these people are more interesting. Colleagues are useless.

You guys hate, but he is right and you know it. In year heart you feel this call, this.. twinge. You know this is not the True Path.

I've done it both. Our Go + Angular project slaughtered Django and now I was dealing with services running at 25MB RAM with single digit CPU usages instead of the disgusting gluttons that Python and Ruby produces with memory usage measured in GBs. Production servers can have specs rivalling Raspberry PIs instead of IBM Blue Genes. Quite refreshing.

The illusion of power that Django (and all fat frameworks) create works OK if you work with a narrow set of very specific web applications in a static environment with a team of Django specialists. Anything else and the project turns to shit.

It is tiring and unproductive to parse other programmers' BS made-up semi-languages. If your shit is so complex you can't handle "tab-switches" you are doing it wrong. Stop crafting these 20-dimensional rhombicosidodecahedrons if you work in a team, please. Just use regular paper and fold a bunch of swans.

> I think his advice is garbage, but it doesn't trivialize depression at all. Depression is an umbrella term, he's speaking honestly about his own experience. It's still "depression".

Actually, I overreacted and I agree with you here. "Depression" is actually quite well defined by the DSM, but the common use of the word covers a lot of ground indeed. So, I read "clinical depression", but I should have read what was actually in the article: just "depression", being "depressed".

Excuse me, for me it's a delicate subject.

Dude, you had some unfortunate life events piled on top of each other causing turmoil. I sincerely don't wish that to happen to anyone and I congratulate you on feeling better, but..

I want to point out that your episode is not to be compared with actual sustained major depression, which will _eat you alive_. So utterly and completely will your soul be crushed that taking your own life will feel redundant, unnecessary. You have literally no idea of how deep this rabbit hole goes, thank god, but your advice trivialises the depth of depression and I have to wonder how this got so high on HN.. This is a blog with one post, one.

I do this too. In fact, I get very bored when I (sub)vocalise the words. Reading without voice is way less tiring and usually faster. It's like you just absorb the raw concepts, the feelings, the nuances uh.. just like when you read something aloud, but then you eh.. don't do that?

Dude, this is not normal. Don't think you have to accept that. Talk to somebody.

Yeah you sound incredibly ADHD.
