TheOneTrueKyle··on Five arrests in 'fully loaded' Kodi streaming box raids
Nah
TheOneTrueKyle··on Five arrests in 'fully loaded' Kodi streaming box raids
What morals and ethics are you referring to exactly? I don't really know you and you assume we have the same beliefs.
TheOneTrueKyle··on Five arrests in 'fully loaded' Kodi streaming box raids
I am always fascinated by people like you. I assume you are apart of the tech industry. I would have never became apart of this industry if I thought the way you did. I got into this industry because things move faster than the low. Things are too slow. I don't give a fuck about laws if things move too slow.
TheOneTrueKyle··on Alexa isn’t the future of AI–it’s a glorified radio clock, and stupid otherwise
One thing that I noticed that Alexa is helping me out in: Speaking up!

I have come to realize I mumble and talk low and cold heartless Alexa will remind me to speak up.

That being said, I never thought of my Echo as anything other than a 1st step towards something greater.

TheOneTrueKyle··on Computer Science Education
Math and science isn't used in a lot of people's every day life, but you have to learn it.
TheOneTrueKyle··on Sick but Not Sick
Awesome, I will check it out. Thanks!
TheOneTrueKyle··on Apple Reports Record First Quarter Results
I honestly wasn't too concerned with the touchpad issue as others. But I recently got a chance to play with one and man did I hate that keyboard.

It feels cheap and wasn't as productive on it. I played with it for 5 minutes so take this with a grain of salt

TheOneTrueKyle··on Sick but Not Sick
I have had a pain in my left side for over 4 years now. Its a mix of sharp from my shoulder to my wrist as well as a dulling pain when things calm down. I think it is related to budging disk issues, but who knows because doctors don't do anything. Every doctor has given me some vague explanation and threw medicine my way. I got a medication that is used to treat epilepsy based on a vague diagnosis.

Over the past 4 years I have gone insane. I have to essentially be my own doctor because no one is willing to help me. Like the guy in the article, I too have freaked out thinking it was cancer and probably spread very far.

I gave up on figuring it out. I absolutely despise doctors with a passion, so much so that I would gladly accept cancer and death into my life than have to deal with doctors. However, before death, I demand that med school gives me an MD since I have to do everything myself anyways.

TheOneTrueKyle··on XPS9350-macOS – macOS patches for Dell XPS 13 9350
As a side note: I have a hackintosh, with an i7 skylake, a Titian Black, 32 GB of ram running macOS Sierra and I am having an issue with sound and USB 3.0 drivers. Every time my computer goes to sleep, USB and sound stop working.

Loving the Hackintosh, but I lose a lot of my life anytime I want to change something.

TheOneTrueKyle··on Stop Checking Email So Often (2015)
But shouldn't you be using that 5 minutes for relaxing instead of diving back into stress.

Maybe an extended pomodoro session with an extra 3-5 minutes for team communication?

TheOneTrueKyle··on Raspberry Pi 3 based home automation with Node.js and React Native
I run a script that takes a picture with an old Kinnect and pushes to dropbox. It is a dirty solution but it worked...until I ran out of space...

Then I will probably sell drugs.
TheOneTrueKyle··on Peak Millennial? Cities Can’t Assume a Continued Boost from the Young
Walking is great too, so long as it isn't a car
TheOneTrueKyle··on Peak Millennial? Cities Can’t Assume a Continued Boost from the Young
As a male who has been constantly harassed by other men, I don't understand why people love to make this about gender.
TheOneTrueKyle··on Staying Motivated as a Software Developer
I am kind of the opposite. I have been struggling to find anything outside of a tester job for the past decade. I have almost zero motivation to continue. Will probably bail on tech very soon.

Happiness only comes in the form of cooking for me so maybe something a kitchen.

TheOneTrueKyle··on Ask HN: How would you quantify the level of stress at work?
Stress level is at 100% for sure.

In a giant corporation that is comfy and has 3 levels of middle management. I currently hate life and trying to find a new job.

Everyday I wake up to rejection letters reminding me that I can't find anything better. At least I can fall between the cracks sometimes at work, but ultimately it is will be spent on applying to new jobs.

Its getting harder to get out of the bed in the morning.

Lived in Japan for a few. Would gladly take being stuffed into a train than ever stepping foot into a car again.
TheOneTrueKyle··on How to Bullet Journal
Oh neat. I might have to give this a try. Thanks!
TheOneTrueKyle··on How to Bullet Journal
Spent a good 3 months bullet journaling. For me, like all systems, it becomes a burden over time. When you start to get anxiety about creating the process to be more productive, then something is wrong.

I tend to write better when it doesn't constantly feel like a chore, but I understand the need for a system to get started. What I come to realize is that I don't need a system, but rather just disciple. Discipline is tough when you are trying to create a system that isn't so burdensome.

Chaos still seems to work the best.

TheOneTrueKyle··on Paper is the real 'killer app'
Thoughts are more than just letters and punctuations. I can't write down the majority of things in my head with just letters and punctuation.

Seems like language is getting in the way of writing down thoughts when you are relying on a screen and a qwerty keyboard as your only choice of input.

TheOneTrueKyle··on Depression as hard on the heart as obesity and cholesterol
Yes, this feeling is relatively constant in my life. There are times where it is more noticeable though. Usually getting lost in the moment is the best way, but that is hard to do on purpose
TheOneTrueKyle··on Supercharge your Sublime Text 3 to increase your productivity
Trying Atom for funsies. Will be back to sublime soon
TheOneTrueKyle··on Depression as hard on the heart as obesity and cholesterol
What is normal depression? What is a normal person?

How do you leave the house when you are depressed?

TheOneTrueKyle··on Depression as hard on the heart as obesity and cholesterol
In what form are you taking CBD. Oils? I am attempting to remove THC completely and focus more on CBD so I am curious.
TheOneTrueKyle··on Depression as hard on the heart as obesity and cholesterol
I should try this for marijuana (abstaining that is)
TheOneTrueKyle··on Depression as hard on the heart as obesity and cholesterol
I have had this feeling in my chest for over a decade now.
TheOneTrueKyle··on Mozilla launches new brand identity
Is the logo gone? It wasn't gone a couple of hours ago
TheOneTrueKyle··on Mozilla launches new brand identity
I have been working on a plan to make this happen. Soon hopefully! :)
TheOneTrueKyle··on Mozilla launches new brand identity
I think this is what pisses me off when I see these big redesigns from companies.

I am a front-end web developer who never wanted to be a front-end web developer. I wanted to be a designer (UX specifically). In order to get a job as a designer, you need a portfolio, preferably with shipped products. So I then create said portfolio to show of my designs (which I also developed because designs are nothing if they aren't implemented). However, with my fancy new portfolio (and still to this day), I can't seem to find me a design job, but I sure can find myself a front-end web position. I definitely would be happier in life if I was a designer.

So when I see shit like this, I always wonder why is it so hard to find a design job?

Sometimes sure. I agree, these healthy habits are prerequisites when you find yourself more depressed than usual.

But sometimes these healthy habits aren't going to be enough.
