Lifelong ADDer here. Yes, the damage of lifelong undiagnosed mental / attentional issues is absolutely a real and crippling thing. You HAVE to break those patterns and the negative self-talk. Cognitive behavioral therapy is helpful for

This is interesting. I read a book back in 2009 called "The Coming Economic Collapse: How You Can Thrive When Oil Costs $200 a Barrel" by Stephen Leeb, Ph.D (2007) [1] The title is total trash, and it seemed alarmist but IIRC the

I would tend to agree. When Snowden first 'came out', I was 100% onboard that he was a treasonous, self-aggrandizing traitor. Even though we sort of knew what NSA was doing to an extent - there were rumors about NSA or AT&T mo

No. I was referring to table partitioning. I don't have much experience with replication in either MySQL or PG (but understand this is another area where mysql may edge pg out still).
