I take ADHD meds and find that it definitely dulls my thinking and creative problem solving, but it at least gives me the motivation to actually write code vs. do nothing. Ideally, I’d have unmedicated days where I just sit and think throug

I’m in a similar position, albeit no dependents. I don’t see myself getting promoted to leadership because software is generally extremely uninteresting to me. My goal is to just work and save as much as I can for as long as I can until I

Advertisers specifically avoid Reddit. Ask anyone who’s run an ad campaign on Reddit vs. literally anywhere else. The conversion rate is absolute trash. Shockingly, the average Redditor doesn’t have (or isn’t willing to part with their) dis

I’ve eaten the same meal everyday (lunch and dinner, I don’t eat breakfast) for years. I think it’s partially laziness and not wanting to think about it. And it’s probably partially depression: putting 30 minutes of effort into making a 8&#
