It's rare to find these thoughtful and sincerely kind threads on the internet these days, but this thread, the one you started, really touched me. HN is truly a wonderful and magnificent place in this wide cosmos of ones and zeroes. Thank you a lot, rubyist5eva, for being such a valuable member of the community and for starting this immensely valuable thread. What you did isn't easy, sharing one's own low points in life, but you did so anyway and made a lot of peoples day! Thank you for being you, keep at it and allow yourself a break now and then. You got this.
