The problem is that sometimes it’s not your code that you’re debugging

Man, this must just be a right of passage for working as a SWE or MLE at this point. I’ve heard this pitch from coworkers/managers more than once.

Buddy, I’m not telling you it will work for you. I’m talking about on the whole we have scientific evidence to prove that it is effective. I’m literally only responding to your claim that “therapy is pseudoscience.” No need to get so defensive.

I still somewhat take issue with that characterization though. It doesn’t just “work for me and that’s okay,” it works period. It has been clinically shown to work for other people too. I only say this because spreading misinformation about it being “pseudoscience” and ineffective only serves to continue some people’s pain and never find an effective treatment for them, and I believe that’s potentially dangerous.

So, knowing this, what can we conclude from these graphs? It looks like posts and comments are going up but active users are going down. Does this mean that the posters are posting more individually? Enough to offset the drop in active users?

It’s mostly for things that don’t warrant a post but your friends might still think are interesting. I’m big on live music so it makes it easy for me to see a snippets of shows people go to or even to figure out if friends happen to be at the same show, but that’s just my personal example.

I have gone through some trauma therapy that has helped where no talk therapy has been able to. There are lots of studies showing the effectiveness too. Look up EMDR or brain spotting.

I really just have to push back on the “doing nothing at all” or “talking to a rubber duck” piece because I’d been trying that for years and trauma flashbacks don’t seem just go away on their own.

I believe the dev said they used ionic in this instance

Not sure if you’ve used it for a bit, but Thunder allows you to edit comments now

I have been doing this where appropriate, but always run up against people telling me it’s too complicated and it’ll never work because nobody can understand it. I think usability for the less technically minded people is huge and should be a priority before any widespread adoption will be able to take place.

Just wanted to say that I upvoted to be especially nice to you for being nice, Janet. Have a good day!
