I've been through a sort of same situation. I became lead product manager of the #1 brazil's startup, 1 month after that, I was fired because I was too depressed and couldn't handle what I achieved.

It's because I got burned-out (due to the trash tech culture).

I felt like not recognizing myself as the guy who achieved the most vertical growth curve in the company. And I was sure I couldn't do it anymore in any place else.

I was sad thinking about the past, "how good I was" and much more sad thinking about "how good I will never be again".

Depressed people forget to live the present, they just think about past and future, it generates a lot of fear, avoidance, procrastination... you are simply putting all your energy where it can't help you.

The present time is your life, live it! The Sun rises everyday. I remember what liberates me about fear was read the phrase:

"Until now, you survived the worst days of your life."

You are strong enough to keep surviving. And think, I know you really don't wanna die, it just seems the only way to reach peace, but it's not.

I like to think the Ironborns:

"What is dead, may never die!"

You have only one life, you can always give up and try again every day. (you're already dead, huh?)

This death thing I'm talking about it's like a germans like to think:

"Don't take life so serious, you will not escape alive".

Talk to your wife, be open, don't be afraid. If she doesn't understand your situation, what you suffering and doesn't support you, leave her. You deserve better.

Try to remove fear from your life. Fear are ruining your career, your dreams, your relationship.

Life is a miracle, don't waste your time, follow your dreams. It's real, you can believe you will succeed, you can believe you will fail, know what? What you believe will become true.

Seems like some guru shit but it's true, I know, you will know.

Live the now, fuck the rest.

(sorry my bad english)

As a brazilian citizen, I can clarify the hidden reality in this article.

Gremio (Blue Team) and Internacional (Red Team) are teams from the most rich and evolved region of Brazil. The people of the south descend from germans and italians. They love those soccer teams and the culture is grow up with their "rivals"... brothers, cousins, etc, cheering for different teams. It was possible due to cultural reasons, not due to an "experiment".

In Sao Paulo, Southeast region, the culture is not like that, and the favelas and poor neighborhoods have their own criminal factions associated with "organised fan clubs".

Its incentivized, the fans from different teams can't mix up in any place, metros, streets, stadiums... We see deaths everyday, people pushing rivals from metro's windows (causing their deaths)

You can't put people of Palmeiras, Sao Paulo, Corinthias (the worst case) together.

What I mean about "spread"... You can use facebook comments, genius annotations or even ask for comments in leaderboards platforms like reddit or HN.

Thinking about delegated systems I can only see two purposes: a) Make your project/content be acknowledged by the people (Spread by piggybacking) or b) Cut off engineering resources regarding to the lack of value created through those comments.

At some point, we need to decide if the comments are a value to keep or to trade.

IMHO, I believe you need to align your expectations about value you wanna extract from the comment section.

Do you want spread the content or you want to enrich the content? It's very important to know.

I can see you already accepted the challenge to build the thing from nothing. What worries you seems the hard and must-do decision, because if you chose a delegated system you will have a big problems to migrate the content generated through the comments.

If you want just spread the content, go with the delegated systems, FB for e.g.

If you want to create value, build your system, it will give you space to explore possibilities that underlies out of your sight.

First of all, sorry if I was really rude, I didn't mean that. "complaint" would be a better word instead of "cry". Sometimes my poor english embarrass me.

It's terrible, the philosophy behind the cryptocurrency would support your freedom to trade your values.

Seems that new generation of apple's hardware comes with RAM welded, being un-upgradable after "bought".

"Tréllo" it sounds little italian to me :)
