I would agree, but I'm still frantically thinking whether I actually agree and whether I should be expressing that publicly!

I'm working on this, though i usually say - I'd rather get bitched at for doing it wrong than for not doing it. At my job it's to emphasize the stupidity of the task and the lack of training on a shitty system.

True that haha

In practice, I live by "never write any code that's important enough for anyone to insist on testing it" 😎

That's easy to obey... but samaos seem to spontaneously evaporate near me.

Do not eat that entire 3KG bag of wine gums to yourself

Asking for help us a sign if strength, not weakness.

I know that because i find it extremely hard to ask for help.

Oof that his home.

All I can say is that things can turn it better, it has for me personally.

It's great of you that you inspire others, though, not hypocritical, it's what we all need sometimes. Doesn't matter if you don't see it personally, you are helping another human being get along.

I feel you so fucking much.

Sometimes it helps to take your own advice, like having a conversation with yourself as if you were another person.

Other times, there's a cloud around our heads that stops that from working.

I hope you find someone to talk to who treats you with the same compassion that you treat others.

Depending on where you live, someone to talk to is probably a phone call away. Give it a try if that's an option.

I get the opposite problem. If I get things nearly perfect on the first try, I'll just think to myself that I'll never top that and give up. There's something satisfying about seeing improvement. In the same vein, seeing results get worse is highly discouraging.

Mom called. She wants to know when to expect grandkids.

Ohh that was a good one. best one I think.

Same as having a good backup strategy but didn't try to restore once.

Three times a day, or, if you can muster it, once a day!

Rest days are important! Depending on what you're doing of course but ya need to rest

"If you can't truly be a good, supportive, platonic friend to her with no secret ulterior motive, maybe you don't deserve her. Maybe you need to take a look at not only how you treat women, but how you think about them."

Most straight men have a lot of patriarchal shit they need to work out within themselves that contribute to them being bad partners.

as a swiss german (we capitalize nouns for those who don't know), I sometimes automatically capitalize nouns when writing in english, especially when I just wrote something in german. Its a habit and at least for me, its really hard to prevent me doing it.

Same is for when I wrote mucn in english before, then writing something in german. Then everything is in lowercase.
