This type of belief is exactly what I was referring to when I said that one of the main features of his illness is that it resists anything that we would consider rehabilitating. Attitudes like this add to the sense of shame: "why don&

Extreme agoraphobia, social anxiety, very little to talk about... Most 31 year olds are working, raising children, etc., and don't live in their parents house. Don't underestimate the shame he feels when around others. Outside his

My youngest brother has schizophrenia, which started when he was 19. He just turned 31, and were it not for his family supporting and caring for him, I'm sure he would be homeless or worse. He's one of the most sensitive, gentle p

Ha! Glad to see Peewee mentioned. In two bullet points: predictable apis, compostable pieces...or, learn once, apply anywhere. Or jOOQ but python. Take your pick! If code is your thing, Peewee has quite a few examples: https://gi

How silly to emphasize things like "built as a C extension" and "uses modern data-structures" as if these were useful criteria for choosing a search engine. It's about minimizing the effort needed to find what you&#

I bought some cologne from Amazon, (seller was listed as "Amazon") which turned out to be fake. The scent was wrong, the bottle... except the box which seemed authentic but had the barcode excised with a razor and covered up with

You do what you want, but I don't think that's a helpful way to act. It might give you a rush, a little feeling of control, but if you come at someone aggressively like that and they think theyre just minding their own business, n

The folks at magicstack have written some seriously cool libraries. Lots of neat cython stuff, postgres, libuv, http parsing. I really like reading their code.

Yeah, I have had similar experiences. Besides just "making physical objects", there's also the camaraderie of working with others directly . Working directly with other people I was laughing, talking, listening all day and t

Docs are pretty horrible to read on my phone, chrome on Android. Panels are getting put side-by-side and the text inside is smashed to like 8 characters across. Too much whitespace. It's like ok ok you've gone and designed the fuc

jOOQ is legit. I found it very helpful to read jOOQ as I was writing my own library in python. There's a huge difference between a query-builder and something like hibernate or sqlalchemy. Query-builders make it easy to compose queri

Sqlite has a concept called virtual tables, which sit somewhere between "pluggable storage" and postgres foreign-data-wappers. They are fairly easy to implement and can be incrementally improved by providing more sophisticated hin

In 10 years, really the only negative experience that in any way affected my well-being was the incident I wrote about in the linked blog post. That covers probably a couple thousand GitHub issues. So really overwhelmingly positive stuff. A
