This ^ I had seen an article discussing this many years ago, and it seemed as the most plausible of the explanations.

Git. Having lived through many cycles of version control systems (VSS, SVN, TFS, Hg), this one has gone on long enough to be replaced with something more intuitive. I think a lot of project complexity is work arounds of inherent Git issues. But I'm just a caveman lawyer.

Yeah, one of the problems is that many states have onerous ballot access laws. Even established 3rd parties often have to regain ballot access and jump through hoops the larger 2 don't.

Some researchers were testing various Legal AI models and one of their questions was about why a Supreme Court justice who dissented in the case (the justice in this case assented).

RingConn Gen 2 has built-in Apnea monitoring -- so far I am loving it. It provides a picture of my sleep apnea when I'm not using the CPAP (because the CPAP can be uncomfortable after a while).

There might be a physiological aspect (not just psychological aspect) that you might be able to mitigate. - Make sure you are getting enough vitamin D (I would recommend a Vitamin B Complex using Methyl B) - Some supplements can reduce anxiety -- stuff that improves the GABA neurotransmitter can be helpful. As well as serotonin. I take saffron, St John's Wort, GABA (starting liposomal soon), Tryptophan. I also take 2 blends of supplements: Dr Berg's Adrenal Stress and Dr Berg's Adrenal and Cortisol support. Between all this, it has me on a mostly even-keel.

There was a YC CEO that in a podcast basically asserted that innovation was pretty much done by people less than 30 years of age. I had been gearing to apply to that company until I saw that comment.

This link has some good details on it - https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/symptoms/23154-neurodi...

It is a term describing people with mental differences: ASD, ADHD, Dyslexia, Tourettes to name a few.

100% agree with this.

Also, with the right community, it is possible to have plenty of "socialization" with other kids. My family participates in a parent-led co-op that allows kids to benefit from different strengths in different parents and to have lots of friends.

As my kids are neurodivergent, I think this environment has been safer for them and allows them to focus on their passions. There is still some peer pressure re: neurodivergence, but I think it was less severe than when I was in public school with less obvious neurodivergence.

Agreed... also anecdotal, I have a autoimmune condition (psoriasis which includes on my face) that taking more Vitamin D helps with (so long as stress doesn't increase). I started taking 50,000 IU's to keep it under control. [I also take the K2 supplement] I also took a DNA test, and it indicated I had problems with Vitamin D absorption. A year later, my blood levels were tested and I was square in the normal range (taking 50,000 IU a day). But the two data points (from DNA and blood test) I think are important considerations.

Hey, I've got a friend who is looking, but for a different role than devs and designers. Otherwise, he'd love to use the tool. Any chance for adding more roles?
