  • When I have thoughts like this I imagine that I am dealing with a friend who is having these thoughts.

    If your friend was constantly struggling with their mental health and you were trying to help them would you call them an toxic, horrible, emotional abuser? I don’t think you would. I certainly don’t feel that way about my friends who struggle.

    I also try to look at the evidence. Is there any actual evidence that people feel this way beyond your own thoughts and feelings?

    Mental health is constant battle and separating real life from your condition can be an incredibly hard but rewarding exercise.

    I’m sorry you’re struggling so much.













  • Actually jit languages can outperform compiled languages by using runtime analysis to perform tiered compilation and profile guided optimisations.

    C# has made some great strides in this regard.

    All the normal optimisations are applied when it is compiled to byte code. Like loop unrolling etc.

    Then once it detects the hot paths during execution it can apply even more based on how it is called. It can also do optimisations that aren’t possible at initial compile time.

    Dynamic PGO it’s called. It’s a really interesting topic.




  • Use your bed only for sleep. No screens for a few hours before bed. Milk before bed. Reading or audio books are a great way to settle your mind.

    If you aren’t asleep after 30 or so minutes get up and do something chilled for a little bit. Laying there getting pissed you aren’t asleep doesn’t help.

    Stick to a sleep / wake schedule. I’ve found getting up early and consistently much more effective for sorting out my sleep.
