Is that related to this?

  Yes, on digging deeper into the site and reading comments here, I think it’s related.

    How is it related? I don't see any immediate connection between an essay on mental health and a note taking app.

      If you have had any close family or friends go through a similar event, it becomes incredibly obvious to you from that point on whenever you see it. The signs are broadly invisible to most people when strangers are exhibiting them, but once you deal with it up close, they are impossible to ignore.

Thank you for your recommendation. In fact, many developers who immerse themselves in coding for long periods often face a range of issues stemming from mental stress. IF's philosophy is that beautiful design can bring joy to people's moods, Design better, life better.

  Dear matrixages, I recommended this essay to you because I think you might be going through a dangerous manic episode. It might feel as a productivity and creativity boost, but it is an illusion. I think you should do a quick evaluation with psychiatrist — just in case.

    Hahahahahaha, you might have some misunderstandings. But I don't care at all about what you say. Entrepreneurs are all a bit crazy, and I might not be an exception. Without a bit of passion, how can we achieve what ordinary people find hard to do?

      I agree with you. I think the world is built by neuro-divergent people. However, I read your comments and your writings (for example, [1]), and was left with impression similar to viewing pictures of famous Wain Cats [2]. I wish you and your product success. But it could be difficult to reach success if one is not well. The essay I linked is from a very prominent developer, Kenneth Reitz. He is the author of the most used Python library, `requests`. In the essay, he describes how it felt to be manic from the inside.

        So you're a doctor? I came to you for medical treatment? Don't bring up these irrelevant things. Judging others in just a few words will only make you look like a fool.

      If a person can continuously be "manic" for five years without hurting others, just doing things for their own goals, then whether "manic" or not, is your definition really okay? Let go of your pitiful discriminating mind, respect and acknowledge the diversity of people in this world, instead of pointing fingers from a high position, which only makes you look like a fool.
