Apple plans a slow, appointment-only rollout of Vision Pro 3 years ago

I don’t think Steve Jobs would have tolerated that bullshit. He understood the customer better than that. Actually, this was his main talent.

How does Linux handle writes? 3 years ago

We learnt that at school back in 1994. Don’t they teach kids about how computers work anymore?

Ask HN: How much do you work, what's your salary and how experienced are you? 3 years ago

Was $120k/y AUD, 20 years of experience in a variety of settings, mostly Senior DevOps in the last 5 years.

Then burnt out.

Now $24k/y AUD passive income, not working. Much happier life just parenting my kids and keeping fit.

Burning out and quitting 5 years ago

I had that, turned out I had undiagnosed autism spectrum disorder (Asperger’s syndrome) and ADHD as a comorbidity. It’s a miracle I managed 20 years in software engineering.

Research on YouTube: Tony Atwood (Adult ASD) and Russell Barkley (ADHD). It should give you an insight into executive function issues that lead to depression / burnout.

Looking back though, a lot of things now make sense.
