I'm in my mid 30s and I am going through this addiction of reddit/youtube and other distractions for the past 10 years. I've always known how harmful it is and I want to change. Do you have any tips for someone like me? I was still able to become an engineer, but I feel like I can be better. Like everyone else my motivation and drive was so much higher when I was younger. I might be using these distractions as a form of escapism for my depression.

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. It's helped with my anxiety and I get so tired I sleep easily at night. Also, there are almost limitless amount of moves and positions to learn which is great for nerds. Also, we don't really get hit in the head like Muay thai so we don't' really have to worry about CTE head damage. It can be tough in the beginning but it's worth it.

I recommend using jekyll or hugo for your site using either netlify or forestry.io for the CMS and hosting. This is the future, and it can be hard to convince the non tech savvy, but I think you know the benefits. I'm willing to help if you run into any questions with setup. You can find me here: http://templatestud.io/.

P.S. This is from working with Joomla, Drupal, and Wordpress sites in the past. Static sites are the way to go.

I went to Hun Coworking, very few foreigners mostly Taiwanese, but it was pretty much just a coffee shop so I stopped going. https://www.facebook.com/huncoworkingspace

CLBC is nice but a little pricey in my opinion.

I'm trying to find a new coworking space here right now, but have been having little luck. The thing about Taipei is they have a huge amount of coffee shops all over the city, I might just end up settling to work at a coffee shop. Email me tecmoviking[at]gmail.com if you want to connect and I can offer other suggestions.
