"Have you no hope at all? And do you really live with the thought that when you die, you die, and nothing remains?" "Yes," I said.

@PW did I mention I started blogging?

I have never let my schooling interfere with my education.

Hey fellow devs. How useful are those algoritm interview prep style books? worth reading? why or why not? Alternatives?

@elisa Hope you're enjoying your afternoon.

“The words that reverberate for us at the confines of this long adventure of rebellion are not formulas for optimism, for which we have no possible use in the extremities of our unhappiness, but words of courage and intelligence which, on the shores of the eternal seas, even have the qualities of virtue.”

“But in the end one needs more courage to live than to kill himself.”

“If I convince myself that this life has no other aspect than that of the absurd, if I feel that its whole equilibrium depends on that perpetual opposition between my conscious revolt and the darkness in which it struggles, if I admit that my freedom has no meaning except in relation to its limited fate, then I must say that what counts is not the best living but the most living.”

“Man stands face to face with the irrational. He feels within him his longing for happiness and for reason. The absurd is born of this confrontation between the human need and the unreasonable silence of the world.”

I absolutely love hearing people talking about their passions. As long as it doesn't hurt anyone don't apologize for being enthusiastic about things you like. Passionate people are one of the few beautiful things about this world.

Please ask for help when you need it. Don't ever let anyone shame you for needing/asking for help. There is nothing shameful about needing help.

Your health and safety is more important than false ideas of social standing.

If I didn't ask for and accept help from people, I wouldn't be alive right now. I'm still far from okay, but I wouldn't be here.

Help others as much as you can. Ask for help when you need to. We are in this together.

Ketchup — American condiment made of corn syrup, vinegar and tomatoes.

Kvetch-up — what we do in the morning when seeing all the bullshit that people did while we were sleeping.
