One more error to be reported in Danny Tuppeny's post from today http://blog.dantup.com/2016/04/have-software-developers-give...

"This "don't break the chain" approach has worked extremely well for me".

I believe you are certainly not the only one. Changing "tasks" into habits greatly helps to achieve your goals. I recently read an excellent book about habits called "The Power of Habit" from Charles Duhigg. I sincerely recommend reading it.

And for the OP, thanks for posting and sharing your ideas. I can relate to many of the things mentioned in the post. Especially for the anxiety part. It does not matter what you are coding, as long as you code something. I've solved some problem's from Project Euler and after each exercise I've felt a sense of accomplishment and restful.

A bit off topic, but Varnish seems to have a valid point about using Varnish and SSL.

"There is no other way we can guarantee that secret krypto-bits do not leak anywhere they should not, than by fencing in the code that deals with them in a child process, so the bulk of varnish never gets anywhere near the certificates, not even during a core-dump."

I came across this when looking for https support few weeks ago.

I had similar issue with my email account. The password is only used for that specific service and I got a notification yesterday that someone had tried to access the account with correct password.

Coincidence, could be. But probably not.

I also had a similar weekend project, but specific to Java, http://javasnips.com/

Looks interesting. Our team also got tired of using traditional chat clients for communication, and we've been using https://www.flowdock.com/ for a year now.

From a consumer's perspective, it's always nicer to have more options to choose from!
