When you say mid-six figures do you mean ~$150k or ~$500k?
None of these are a cure. Clinical depression is a real thing and you should see a mental health professional. But here's my list.
- Go outside and get some sun
- Exercise
- Drink water
- Get enough sleep
- Eat healthier
- Form meaningful social connections
- Reduce screen time
- Only use your bedroom for sleeping(and sex), use different spaces for different activities
- Journal
- Write down 3 things that need to get done today, and then do it
- (bonus edit) Meditate for 10 minutes
Most importantly. You don't have to do all of it. Life is a marathon, not a sprint. If all you can manage today is drinking a glass of water, then start there. This random Internet stranger believes in you.
Also drugs.
My former career was in IT, I'm a developer now. I work with a bunch of tech savvy people, but I still have the 'IT Support Aura'. I've lost count of how many times a coworker has a computer problem, asks for help, and then watches me fix it and they claim they tried the exact same thing and it didn't work. I never really have an answer besides 'computers fear me'
There's a big difference between winning a rigged election, and losing an election but staying in power anyway.
Look, I could point you to the blogs and patch notes for Chromium and Firefox and you could read into it and make your own conclusions from it.
From my perspective as a solution architect that has worked for several mid to large size organizations, is that security is difficult to measure and constantly changing. When I evaluate what software to use I do it on the basis of how they've historically addressed security concerns, and where the organization that develops the software priorities lies. My opinion is that when it comes to security, Mozilla and Google are about the same when it comes to Firefox and Chromium.
I haven't looked into Brave much, so I can't comment there besides it's another organization that you have to trust so it's inherently more risky.
The article you linked is over 3 years old at this point. You can't use that as the basis for your argument for software that's likely had hundreds of patches since the time that article was published.
(me, an American) Well, forty isn't that many.
You can install Windows on it and should be able to play those games.
They are obviously saying that their hardware is powerful enough to play all games; not that all games support their choice of OS.
We're social animals with big brains. Other great apes, elephants, whales, even some birds like parrots and corvids mature slower.
We rely less on our instincts and more on what we learn from the previous generations, and that takes time.
Well, I know how I'm starting and ending all my emails now
IMHO, it's a horrible hack that is just broken. It's obscure and we need to rewrite it because it has a bad structure. ^X^Cquit^[ESC][ESC]^C

Some experienced programmers forget how difficult computers and programming can be for beginners. It's obvious for us to look at the error and resolve it, but for most people it's pretty arcane. Relevant XKCD
Unfortunately, I think this is also a right of passage of some sorts. If you want to continue programming you will encounter a problem that you can't ask or find the answer on the internet and you will have to work through it yourself. I've had problems I've been stuck in for weeks or months. At least for me, it's always been such a high when I finally solve these. :)
