So you admit you had support. What about the people who don't?

As someone with lots of weird quirks, and who is very likely on the autism spectrum, working from home may have literally saved my career.

what would you say is big bucks?

If you expose yourself to macro-harms... you tend to... die.

We don't really have it good though, simply because the universe doesn't work like that. There's no such thing as a free lunch and you're paying a price for all this "goodness".

The difference is: you can understand a drunk driver, you can arrest them, and possibly feel some sense of "closure".

What are you gonna do when a car goes rogue and murders somebody?

That's not where health is though...

Health is balance.

Leaving home at 18 is really mostly an american thing.

Go to a place like Italy or India or Pakistan and you'll find 30+ year olds living with their parents and it's no big deal at all.

29 here, living at home. I do have somewhat of a career though.

I Honestly don't know when I'll leave. I have the skills to live alone, but my self-esteem is so low and my social life so limited that it gets really scary to leave.

These types of books are made to sell, bro, not to be completely truthful.

You got duped.

Sleep is in there, trust me. I'm 29 and look 40.

99% of developers are working in boring business software with 2-3 other developers.

99% of codebases will be touched by maybe a dozen developers in its entire lifetime.

It's a good point though. Who decides what "one reason to change" is? a 10-line method could easily have hundreds of reasons to change.

It's called being young. They're emotional and inexperienced.

50 years ago this used to be normal. Now for some reason everybody expects perfection out of everybody at all times.

Insanity.

Mental health is waaay more important than anything you could ever possibly learn in school.
