This hits close to home, being a 30-something software developer, and having grown up in a very religious, anti-intellectual household. Very sad, and preventable.
- personlurking 11y agoThe article mentioned a religious documentary she was interviewed for. Here is that interview. https://youtu.be/TjDzR5plpS4?t=15m52s https://youtu.be/TjDzR5plpS4?t=15m52s
- alphanumeric0 11y agoThanks for that. I heard about the documentary months ago and was meaning to watch it.
- sixQuarks 11y agoPoor girl. The stress from her family situation coupled with startup stress finally got to her.
- melling 11y agoI talked to her a few times. The first time I met her I asked her to check out my app and give me her thoughts. A few days later she took the time to email me a couple of ideas. I thought I saw her recently as I was rushing home after a recent Meetup. Now I wish I'd stopped to say hi.
