My mother died 2 years ago and a couple of months ago I lost my job. I don't have any friends and have no family left. I tried antidepressants, but I don't believe in chemical help anymore. I read self-help books like "Feeling Good".

I take care of the house, walk the dog, apply to jobs, go swimming twice a week. I won't starve. If I don't find a job soon I might go back to school and go into teaching.

It’s impressive how quickly the WWW became mainstream, given how few people had internet access back then. Bitcoin is now 16 years old but compared to the WWW in 2008 is hardly used on a daily basis.

It's not that WWW was quick, it's that Bitcoin is useless.

I've also heard Cory Doctorow recently offer a similarly dismissive view, describing AI as "just statistics".

Over the last few months, I’ve increasingly come to believe that depression is not caused by a chemical imbalance. After trying ten different antidepressants with no success, I found far greater improvement by changing my patterns of thinking.

Adding one letter to the day of the week would be way less confusing.

When I tried to install the Windows release, I got a message that it contains the Vigram.A virus.

It's buggy. I got stuck in the blue "pool" in the last stage, under one of the green ramps.
