Of course it's a big deal. I never disagreed with that to begin with. Some people understand ostracism. That's why they don't do the things that cause ostracism.

This is very a good depiction of a Markov chain. However, it's always a coin flip on your emotions to anthropomorphize math. Pronouns.

Maybe just trying to attract a certain type of person who wants to get out of a job they find crushing. A job can be seen as crushing or a team effort. Einstein wasn't an island.

Mitch Hedberg is much more similar to programmer/hacker humor IMO. Puns, jargon, word play, grammatical structure, lots of modification to simple statements for comedy. That creates a different kind of overarching structural complexity

It's easier to see it as 'if I attack you, you attack me'. Because if not now, eventually.

Just write them down if you consider them of great importance. Cite. History repeats itself. Can't control how every system gets managed.

Deleting or not deleting, I dunno. I started talking on the internet when I was 9. I've always had to live with the paranoia of my data following me around everywhere. Because it does, it could exist somewhere, even if I delete it. Who

Replying too frequently puts a timer on your reply. This can either be good to learn impulse control with explaining or to control heated argumentation. For problems that lead to identification of other problems, taking notes is useful. Men

Always trying to solve your problems mostly yourself. Shortcut is trust others, but be selective. Of critical importance. I don't know what you mean by transitions, but that's fine. I have my own words too.

My former PhD advisor said lots of exercise, adequate sleep, and good eating are of supreme importance. Otherwise, whatever you want to do, bind yourself to that. Sleep deficits add up. Think conservatively about your mind.

Last I checked (DSM), BPD is borderline personality disorder. Bipolar is manic depression. These are two different diagnosis. Borderline is characterized by the chaotic trends of emotional disregulation. Manic depression goes in predictable

That makes sense. More social stability, monotony. That's a comforting thing. IT systems are just systems that are predictable within some range of expected behavior without extreme variation, or if there is extreme variation, it'

This isn't strange at all (at least to me). I've been misdiagnosed as bpd in facilities that were socially chaotic. People who diagnosed me were also selectively biased to what information about me was indicative of past, present
