Are you happy, well-rounded? (dealing w/ depression/lack of motivation) | confoocious: I can totally relate to what you're saying.My story: I found some professional success (atleast monetarily so) early and in parallel through college-life. I thought there wouldn't be much to the transition to pursue a bigger goal post-academics.Seems like I was totally wrong. Ever since, I've been facing a huge motivational crisis, total mismanagement of time, Unkept promises in my professional as well as personal circles and most of all, to myself.Currently, I still stand potential with whatever I thought was my biggest chance to make it big in life professionally. However, the only thing that can seem to provide me any kind of respite / mental peace is slacking off on junkie travel-getaways.Personal-life has hit new lows. Complicated-relationships turned irredeemable. Finally, there seems to be a self-imposed lethargia to any kind of social life (when not travelling); Life, monotonously so has boiled down to some work -- 8 hours a day, and IRC (with other minor randomities) the rest of the time. |
Are you happy, well-rounded? (dealing w/ depression/lack of motivation) | known: You'll be happy if you plan your career so that you can retire by 40. |
Are you happy, well-rounded? (dealing w/ depression/lack of motivation) | Tichy: I think often the only way to figure out if you want something is to try it. Traveling seems like a good idea, or other things to get some exposure. Do you want the same things as your stb fiancee? |
Are you happy, well-rounded? (dealing w/ depression/lack of motivation) | fdschoeneman: Whatever you do, do something different. Join the Army. Move to Thailand. Dump your girlfriend, if you have to.Good luck. |
Are you happy, well-rounded? (dealing w/ depression/lack of motivation) | robak: Move out from States: a country of depressed people who think that work is remedy for everything. |
What tools do you use? | inevaexisted: gedit/notepad++, winscp(when on windows), most debugging I can do in Chrome using the developer tools.on a side note, has anyone used an editor that does javascript 'intellisense' and was it any good? |
What tools do you use? | Chirag: Notepad++ with Plugins |
Are you happy, well-rounded? (dealing w/ depression/lack of motivation) | stener: I am more attentive. You can start to hear bird singing, smell the wood or see the night sky. The difference is in the details; you can be astonished by the nature, explore it and so appreciate own life. And good diet is amazing.Lately I climbed the tree, watched the sky and hills from the top, washed in the cold mountain brook. And I was grateful for every minute of my time. |
level of understanding for java if we want to do clojure prjt | zaph0d: I am a professional Clojure developer and I have almost no real-world experience in Java.I knew basic Java syntax and taught myself to read JavaDocs well. I think that's all you need to know in order to use Java libs from Clojure.You can polish your Java chops a bit more as you go. |
Are you happy, well-rounded? (dealing w/ depression/lack of motivation) | awongh: This is a bit of a tangent to your question, but I've been thinking about this a bit too. I've been depressed lately as well, and this ted talk [ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XgRlrBl-7Yg ] was really interesting. It has nothing to do with being more happy, but has to do with how we define happiness and how we experience it... (being over-analytical and also unhappy, I thought it was quite good)It basically says that the concept happiness as we think of it is really two things, the "experiential self", which is happy when we're snowboarding or whatever, and the remembering self, which is happy when we're deploying some code that's going to take over the world or whatnot.It seems to me, from observation, that unless you are the rare .01 percent who really, really, gets paid well to do the things you want, (I'm not counting Tim Ferris types- that's just a hack) that life is a dissapointment, and at some point you just get over it and live your life and try not to stress out too much about your remembering self, and try to pay some attention to your experiential self. Or, that is to say, that at a certain point, people stop worrying so much about their remembering self's expectations of their future memories... err, that is to say that it's not that you want to be happy, it's that you have an expectation to be satisfied at a later time with your choices and actions. And then at some point you have to change those expectations.This may sound like pyscho-babble at this point, but it really gets to something I've been thinking a lot about lately, namely "am I happy?". Should the question be... "am I satisfied with my life?" or... "am I having fun?"... well, this concept of the two selves really helps defines what you mean when you talk about happy.Of course, completely satisfying one self or another isn't a solution, but generally I feel enlightened for having been exposed to this concept. |
Are you happy, well-rounded? (dealing w/ depression/lack of motivation) | chriseidhof: A book that really helped me is Flow by Csikszentmihalyi. You probably can recall a moment (for example, when programming) where you were in a state of flow, you were solving difficult problems (but not too difficult) and everything just went naturally.His book is about this state, and about how to reach happiness in general. The key point is not only to depend on happiness as told by external people (e.g. parents, girlfriend, government, boss) but also create your own triggers. It might be making music, looking at a sunset, etc. In other words: be in control of your own happiness.That being said, I think it's wise to see a professional. Ultimately, you'll have to do it by yourself, but they can help you get back on track and provide guidance and pointers. After all, it's their job.Good luck! |
Are you happy, well-rounded? (dealing w/ depression/lack of motivation) | scottallison: Difficult to add anything to the superb advice already given but I want to endorse:- overseas travel (go to a completely different culture than your own)
- exercise (even just going for a walk round the local park while listening to some music)
- de-clutter (this is really, really beneficial - I've just moved house and the feeling of throwing out years of accumulated crap was fantastic)
- socialise with some new peopleFinally, be wary of books and seminars, etc - sometimes I find if someone is so completely off the scale in terms of achievement rather than motivating me it has the opposite effect. Don't be afraid to stop reading/leave an event if you find you're not getting energised by it.A good book that's easy to read is The Magic Of Thinking Big. Nice, simple advice and a good pick-me-up. It's full of common sense and useful steps you can take to get re-energised.Finally, I just want to echo what others have said: there's no rush; don't pressure yourself. There's a great quote on PG's website... "Your twenties are always an apprenticeship, but you don’t always know what for."Good luck. |

How should I monetize this app? | pip2010: I think your 3 option would be the best way to go, thats a great way to add a added payable version for - especially if you could add somekind of analytics to the time spent - in general and perhaps in relationship to other users (lets you see how you rate to others (all/friends), or might come with suggestions how to optimize your productivity). So your local version would save data and show you them there, but the storage of data and analytics would be on the website. Fantastic visualizations of the data will probably be a great way to build fans of the app - allowing a user to very easily understand their productivity level...This would also allow a company to test it across all its staff, to see how time is used - of course this is a little big brother'ish, but might be a added value option to sell.-PiP |
How should I monetize this app? | friism: I think #3 is best, especially if you let users rate individual sessions or integrate with something like Rescue Time: http://www.rescuetime.com/developersThere are good options for monetizing a free-version:1) Show sponsor sites instead of wanted site when visiting Hacker News etc. while in pomodoro2) Open an interstitial or show adds in some other way when pomodori ends. |
How should I monetize this app? | ankeshk: 1. Bundle your app with the ask or yahoo toolbar. People get an option to install those toolbars too while installing your app on their desktops. You get paid per install of those toolbars.2. Sell private label rights to the software. Other productivity websites can attach their logos to your app. And give it away for free to their audience.3. Sell Corporate accounts. Basic accounts are free. But if a corporate wants to track how productive their employees have been - you make money out of that. |
How should I monetize this app? | nudge: Go for 1)Have it also set your email client to not receive messages in that time (or close altogether).Your app is then a pretty awesome get-some-damn-work-done distraction-eliminator. You could sell to businesses too (perhaps even more successfully) - teach them about the loss of productivity due to distractions - particularly from email and instant messaging - and sell them your app as a solution. |
How should I monetize this app? | kristiandupont: Clickable link: http://www.beatpoints.com/cherrytomatoIf you want to try out the firewall, you can download it here: http://www.beatpoints.com/cherrytomato/cherryfirewall.zip - it only works with Windows Vista or higher, and possibly only on x64.

Are you happy, well-rounded? (dealing w/ depression/lack of motivation) | Teef: Things I am doing to recover from a failed startup I was working on.1. Do something impossible! I rode my bike to work 25 miles in the morning and 25 miles at night. This was something I thought was impossible, and I only got to do it a couple times a week but it gave me lots of time to think and work though my issues. Find your impossible task and do it.2. Learn something new. When I teach myself something new it is a very euphoric experience and after I then want to do something with that new knowledge.3. Lots have been said about gardening and yep it is all true do it now!4. Exercise for 30 minutes first thing and your day will start out much better.5. Eat local/healthy food. Good food makes you feel better. |

Are you happy, well-rounded? (dealing w/ depression/lack of motivation) | lallysingh: I've been pretty deep in depression before and am only a few years (2?) out of it.First, what you're going through is, no matter how shitty it feels, a good thing. You're starting to notice that most of the things you thought were important were actually important to other people you listen to.Here's a start (atop of whatever else you see that you like in the comments here): write a list of priorities, eyeball 10-15 of them. Then cross off all but 2-3. See if you'd be happy (not what makes other people, their, or your expectations happy, but you happy) doing those. If you're unsure. Make another list, and cross off another bunch, and see if you'd be happy with that list. See what bubbles up.Iterative development for figuring out what's important to you.Btw: you're not supposed to have a right or final answer for this. Only psychotics and morons do. Go after what you think is best now, and plan to change later. If something sucks, fuck it, try something else.Take an experimental approach, expect to blow large amounts of time/money/energy on this -- it's the basis for how you live your life, it's important.Don't forget to party. |
Are you happy, well-rounded? (dealing w/ depression/lack of motivation) | pw0ncakes: Entering adulthood is difficult because even though the challenges are (usually) much milder, the stakes are much higher. If you get a C on your final, it doesn't matter much. If you get passed over for a promotion, it's the first sign that you need to be looking for another job.My experience is that the happiness range of college is 4-8, with a peak around 7, and that of adulthood is 2-9, with a peak around 4.5. The range is much wider and the peak of the curve is lower, but there's much more potential upside. In college, the star performers have as good a life as the average students. The "real world" has the potential to be really amazing, but for the median player, it's pretty shitty. The fact that even the most talented 25-year-olds live in fear of being in the latter category creates a lot of anxiety, and it can be overwhelming.Some advice: Definitely see the therapist, assuming you can afford it, and make sure that you're taking care of basic needs (exercise, nutrition, sex).You said: Or if I do know exactly where I want to live, I'm always terrified that I'll regret the move later.Remember that you can always move back. No one's expecting you to buy a house. People who leave New York come back, and people who come to New York from Chicago, Minneapolis often go back. As scary as "starting over" socially is, it's a smaller cost than the upside of living in the right place for you. Besides, you probably only have 3 to 6 real friends in your city at this point, and those you'll keep regardless of your move. (New York may be a special case; it's easier and cheaper to live elsewhere and visit 2 weeks each year, which a lot of people do, than to live here, because of the massively overpriced housing). |

Are you happy, well-rounded? (dealing w/ depression/lack of motivation) | missizii: I second (or third) the recommendations of seeing a psychologist and upping your level of physical activity. Try to find a psychologist who isn't a pill-pusher. I also recommend the books "Feeling Good" by David Burns and "The Highly Sensitive Person" by Elaine Aron.
One thing that helps me figure out if I'm ok with where I am and what I have is imagining that I'll lose it tomorrow (not in a bad way). If I'm tired of where I live, I imagine I'm moving tomorrow, if I'm unsure about my job, I imagine it's my last day here. It helps me appreciate the good things about my situation. However, I'm definitely one of those people who doesn't appreciate what they have until it's gone. |

Cloud computing companies? | jasonlbaptiste: Cloud is a pretty broad term. I divide it up into two categories: hardware/infrastructure type stuff ie- amazon web services, rackspace, etc. and then the software side (SaaS)- salesforce, google apps, basecamp, wufoo,etc. I don't think the public markets would be the best bet or even a good bet at all to place a sole bet on the cloud computing market. Most of the innovation in the space will come from small startups that will one day be big. Most of the big companies doing it now that you can invest in a) have it as a very small part of their business and/or b) just say they do "cloud computing" by playing buzzword bingo. If I personally had a ton of money, i would be angel investing in as many great SaaS/business web app companies as possible. |

got any food hacks? | caseycrites: I'm a 24 year old bachelor and have been looking for these kind of tips as well. These are the things I've found and used.Cooking utensils:-George Foreman-A bunch of those throw away plastic containersBreakfast (Takes 2-3 minutes):-Get the All Whites egg whites and pour some of it in a small plastic container and throw it in the microwave for a minute and a half-Throw that egg on a wheat tortilla with some salsa and spinach and you have a breakfast burrito.Lunch (~3 minutes to prepare, ~3 minute to cook):-Black beans + Chunk chicken + spinach + salsa + guacamole + hot sauce + (whatever else you want for flavor) all into a bowl and toss it in the microwave. Quick and tasty.Dinner (~10 minutes to prepare, ~5 minutes to cook):-Chicken breasts grilled on the George Foreman. I generally cook a bunch at a time, store the rest in the fridge and then heat them up at a later date. Throw whatever you want on top of them for added flavor.-Boil broccoli or some other bagged vegetable in a plastic container in the microwave-Black beans, pinto beans, some other good beans.Snacks:-Nothing beats baby carrots for me. Grab some hummus for some extra flavor.-Bananas, Apples, Oranges. If you're dieting try to avoid too much fruit, but don't neglect it either.Notes:-This is for a super healthy diet, so if you're not looking for really healthy switch some of these things out. However, I generally split my lunch into two meals making all 4 meals about 4 hours apart a piece and I never get hungry between them, even with exercise. Not being hungry definitely helps kill cravings.-This follows the slow-carb diet, all except for the wheat tortilla in the morning |

Are you happy, well-rounded? (dealing w/ depression/lack of motivation) | edeion: I see this thread draw many clever and dynamic people. I'm afraid I can't help in any way since many have already given clever, inspired, positive advice.Anyway. I'm 28 and I have been struggling almost forever to find something captivating. In recent years, solving useless problems helped (http://www.caesum.com/game/index.php in case you'd like it) but oddly enough I don't manage to play this more than one week a year. Generally speaking, I try to get interested in some things but I soon feel indifferent to it. (I guess I'm just describing a depression symptom.) Anyway this doesn't make a living.I've read people around here (including PG) writing they were poor employees and it reassured for some weeks since I really am a pitiful one (to say the least). But since then I came to realize that comparing myself to this kind of people was outrageously pretentious. I may not be stupid but I can no longer do anything. I have long liked to blame school and parents for this since it was not the same in my early childhood. But blaming does not help.The most awful thing I sometimes come to think is exactly what people suggested to you: it's what adulthood is like, you are through some age crisis. If that's how life is, I should have hanged long ago. (But that's not good karma. etc. -- Nicely put.)I guess, like others suggested, a key point is finding something valuable to do. Anything you feel rewarding. Especially if it may have measurable success, I would say. Helping others is good provided either these people do not overlook your efforts or you are confident enough to value your efforts by yourself. Actually, do anything you can achieve now with the energy you have in store. I can testify that the more you wait the less energy you have. (But this doesn't prevent me from still waiting.)The best would be to find a field in which your efforts can add up. Founding a startup may be captivating and hence a therapy. But how could people like me (I wouldn't ) show the needed strength? My last effort to be on topic shamefully fails. Anyway, I took for granted that your problem comes from your job which is far from being clear.Sorry for the English (or for telling nonsense (which is almost the same in my case)). |

Do you use a Dvorak keyboard configuration? If so, how did you learn? | richardw: I still use a normal QWERTY keyboard, so I put a printout of the specific layout I was using above my monitor. This gave me a way to check if I needed to, while ensuring I had to link the position to actual keys mentally.I then spent some time each day practicing related words. This helped to bed down a memory of where the keys were and then to build up muscle memory of the combinations. A typical practice could include 'there then that thin thine ten hen her this' etc. This helped to focus on the keystrokes/combinations on a subset of letters.This works for any keyboard layout - I used the same approach to move from my original hodgepodge approach to QWERTY. |

Do you use a Dvorak keyboard configuration?

Toolset to write an e-book | iamgabeaudick: So, regardless of what you use to create the ebook, where can/should you publish it once it's done? I know you can post it, say, on your blog to download, but what else would you do. (Submit to Amazon, or iBooks, or more?) |
Do you use a Dvorak keyboard configuration? If so, how did you learn? | ZeroGravitas: Do not rearrange your keys or buy a Dvorak keyboard. This is counter-productive as there's no point switching if you're not going to learn how to touch type.There's plenty of typing tutors for all platforms, a surprising number support Dvorak and working through their graded lessons will get the common keys memorized in no time.A print out, open window or desktop background with the key layout will get you through the early stages. |

How do I acquire funding for a startup non-profit? | SlyShy: Well, as a non-profit start-up it seems like simply asking for money would be easier than for an average start-up. Presumably people are willing to donate, if it's a good cause, and you can base your appeal on the good you'll do, rather than the likelihood that they'll get return on investment. |

Do you use a Dvorak keyboard configuration? If so, how did you learn? | stellar678: It only took a few days of recreational learning to get the basics down. I found a number of lame flash typing games online that helped a lot. There are also a few sites with dvorak-oriented typing tests that can help too.To get started, I simply switched OSX into dvorak mode in the International preferences panel and then turned on the keyboard viewer to see the layout on screen. I started just doing things like facebook messages, and it was painful. Minutes just to type a few sentences. But within a day it seems reasonable to be up to 15 wpm or so.The main thing for me was only using it for social communication or typing games, which allows it to remain a fun challenge rather than a big frustration.I still use qwerty often for dev-related things because the muscle memory for shortcut keys seems harder to overcome than it was for typing words. |

How do I acquire funding for a startup non-profit? | ajdecon: No personal experience with an early-stage non-profit, but it seems like the best way to acquire funding would be to look for government grants or grants from larger non-profits. The government funds a lot of ideas which they don't have the manpower or expertise to implement themselves. Once you have some early work done it should be a lot easier to get donations from the community at large. |

Are you happy, well-rounded? (dealing w/ depression/lack of motivation) | foleyfoley: I'm currently going through the same thing, its not over but I've realized a couple thingsMy philosophy is start to do something, if it something you realize is not for you, you cross it off and do the next thing on your list. It doesn't matter what you do as long as you are doing something. For me this has narrowed down and grounded my interests, and has given me an idea of what to do with myself. This idea will obviously change with time, but for right now it is a start.Or when I feel like I cant think, or am not in control of the way my life is heading. I stop, and simplify my life. whether this is a day to lay in the park and read or just look at the sky. Or something more drastic. It is backing up from your own life and editing it to whatever degree you want. For me it was really empowering to be in a place of my constructing after I threw away all the metaphorical clutter. It let me breathe and start again. |
