    It’s tough, respect for holding on as you do.

    Life’s not fair, not everyone has the mental stability that is required for a happy life. But we can hope to lessen the pain a bit.

    Headspace is indeed an app, with a subscription (not sure what the free plan is, but it helped me so I didn’t care). You can also meditate yourself or with free YT videos of course, but this app worked better for me.

    Take care, hope you find some relief.

    After 25 years of suicidal thoughts I’ve finally taken antidepressants, Zoloft was what worked for me.

    In a couple of months the black thoughts became more rare and now in a year or so they are almost gone. I don’t feel the active need to kill myself any longer. Which feels… a bit uncanny almost. Not all in life is good, but this specific lack of despair is nice; still really bizarre to not have this endless dread any longer. I try to enjoy that while it lasts.

    I did a lot of meditation as well with Headspace, can recommend that too.

    Hope you find your way.

    It’s cutting my programming work in half right now with quality .NET code. As long as I stay in the lead and have good examples + context in my codebase, it saves me a lot of time.

    This was not the case for co-pilot though, but Cursor AI combined with Claude 3.7 is quite advanced.

    If people are not seeing any benefit, I think they have the wrong use cases, workflow or tools. Which can be fair limitations depending on your workplace of course.

    You could get in a nasty rabbit hole if you vibe-code too much though. Stay the architect and check generated code / files after creation.






  • Well it’s mostly that at least a certain group with disabilities has access to a way out when life is too harsh. It is to limit unneeded suffering. A respectful way to end one’s life should be available to everyone, but that is a hard pill to swallow for many neurotypical / religious people. So it gets limited to a certain group, and then they use that compromise as an argument…

    You don’t decide whether you are born, at least let us have more control over our own death. In a progression of our human civilization, this should count for everyone.

    Framing this in a bad way is exactly what some conservative politicians and media want.



  • Most other companies can be selective in what they host / stream. YouTube will host/stream anything users upload and that’s actually quite insane. Current statistics say that YouTubers upload 30.000 hours of video… per hour.

    Aside from the streaming/processing, only the disk space that would need is already frightening. Most of those videos will never be seen, and no ads will be played on them. The setup needed for this is massively more impressive to me than services like Netflix.

    Do you perhaps have a source for those profit margins? I really wonder if they’re already running break even.

    If you say that I assume you either only used older services or your prompt skills are lacking.

    ChatGPT 4 is really advanced and can create long coherent fluid texts (with source references). You can also ask it to write as a student or any other target and it will match writing styles quite well.
