Terry's is a sad tale. I believe he always had a family to access if he wanted though mental illness prevented him.
Not sure if that's better or worse now that I write it out.
- hgsgm 3y agoThis seems similar... a developer with no track record who can't find work, asking for funding for a speculative project instead of asking for employment, suggests a mental misalignment. The main difference seems to be that Davis built something interesting and functional (if not profitable or practical), whereas gagoot.com seem more like Time Cube rambling.
- soulofmischief 3y agoTerry Davis had a fine resume and the intelligence to land any job. Unfortunately, his schizophrenia made working at typical jobs untenable. I don't believe society should have made him suffer for this, and we failed him.
- soulofmischief 3y agoTerry was kicked out after ongoing difficulties living with his family. He did however turn down some help here and there, presumably because of contingencies.
