    I will point out that, in the US at least, an official diagnosis isn’t required to get those meds. It’s just a lot easier to be prescribed them with it. I’m not officially diagnosed but I do see a psychiatrist who was willing to try them with no prompting from me.

    Ultimately though they didn’t work out because of the impact on my blood pressure, I’m on non-scheduled ADHD meds now that have made a huge difference.


  • Because there are alot of ignorant people in the world afraid of what they perceive as different.

    In your first two examples, regardless of not being politicians it’s clear that by helping put politicians in power they benefit, so whether they genuinely care or not, it’s just about money and lack of compassion to them. And continuing to drive class warfare continues to benefit them.

    In your last example, I think that person is just in the ignorant and afraid of change category with an unfortunate amount of exposure.




  • I work an odd schedule - two jobs, one WFH Sat-Tue from 8PM to 3AM, then a hybrid (2 days WFH) dayjob (Mo-Fr) from 10AM to 6PM. It’s been this way on and off but so far I’m at over a year with this particular schedule, but I’ve had similar schedules in the past.

    I would say I have a life, but my hobbies are more introverted anyway. Am I healthy? No, bit I wouldn’t say that’s entirely related to the schedule, I have other conditions.

    It can be taxing at times but most of the time it’s just life.



  • So far I’ve helped my team of 5 get on them. Some other teams are starting as well. We’ve got Windows, Linux, and Mac OSX that developers are running on their work machine (for now), and the only container specific issue we ever encounter is port conflicts, which are well documented with easy to change environment variables to control.

    The only real caveat right now is we have a bunch of micro services, and so their supporting services (redis, mariadb, etc.) end up running multiple times, so their is some performance loss from that. But they’re all designed to be independent, only talking to each other via their API, so the approach works.

    If this is your take your exposure has been pretty limited. While I agree some devs take it to the extreme, Docker is not a cop out. It (and similar containerization platforms) are invaluable tools.

    Using devcontainers (Docker containers in the IDE, basically) I’m able to get my team developing in a consistent environment in mere minutes, without needing to bother IT.

    Using Docker orchestration I’m able to do a lot in prod, such as automatic scaling, continuous deployment with automated testing, and in worst case near instantaneous reverts to a previously good state.

    And that’s just how I use it as a dev.

    As self hosting enthusiast I can deploy new OSS projects without stepping through a lengthy install guide listing various obscure requirements, and if I did want to skip the container (which I’ve only done a few things) I can simply read the Dockerfile to figure out what I need to do instead of hoping the install guide covers all the bases.

    And if I need to migrate to a new host? A few DNS updates and SCP/rsync later and I’m done.


  • Someone doxxed me and spread a photo of my face with the text “she said she was 18” superimposed on it (in meme format), and then spreading it in the community.

    All because they took issue with a friendship I had with another user who “sounded young”. Which culminated in the community leadership getting her to prove she was, in fact, not underage, “just in case” we ended up in a relationship because they “know how these things go” or something.
