The tagging system is something I'm really missing from my internet searches, whether I want to organize short term or long term.

Usually the most tabs I have open is because I was window shopping, particularly on Etsy. Etsy doesn't have a quick look option and it's faster to me to middle mouse click links to…

My team hired a Chinese engineer a little over a year ago. It took almost 4 months for them to join after my lead first mentioned giving her an offer.

You're confusing delayed sleep phase disorder with non 24hr sleep wake disorder.

This comment will stick with me. This is how I have been thinking of it. Google et al are not looking for a person like me.

I was asked to code 2048 in an interview at a major video game company. I don't necessarily think it's the most difficult thing ever, but I also don't think it's that easy if you'v…

I'm convinced I'm probably smart enough for at least a handful of roles there, but I'm not convinced Google (and others) care about people who interview poorly due to mental health…

Not quite as odd, but my high school started at 8:10

Doesn't make any sense for a manager to suggest a specific drug, especially one that is a controlled substance in most countries or outright illegal.

I only moved once, after my parents got divorced. I changed schools in 4th grade and didn't end up having any "best" (they weren't actually good to me) friends again until 8th grad…

I never hid my previous employers but I really don't want companies reaching out to my previous job. My manager was toxic as hell and actually told me to give up when I tiptoed int…

My "cycle" was like opening drawers and then closing them. The drawers were full of my own stories. Closing the drawers felt like me being unwilling to venture into the territory o…

This was how it was for me. I got burnt out coding a lot and studying for interviews (as I'm mostly self taught). I started going to therapy, but got fired after working under an a…

ADHD (especially untreated) and substance abuse/addiction is pretty common

My experience with US ADHD medical providers is that they require an appointment every 3 months where you get another 3 scripts (with 2 being dated for the future months). One let …

Stimulants are Schedule 2 in the US

You don't know if they have an internal struggle though. Just because they look functional to you doesn't mean it's easy for them.

I can say the opposite. I have the MTHFR mutation and ADHD. Taking vitamins did not alleviate my ADHD symptoms.

> When I have found things that I do genuinely enjoy, I can focus for hours and hours on end. One of the hallmarks of ADHD is not being able to get started and stay focused on thin…

did you even read the linked article?

I haven't played CS OW but based off the description I just read on the replays, it seems like they are probably storing the interactions as text data and then using it to show the…

I have worked on some server-side anti-cheat detection for a game recently. Competence is not a problem, it's actually very difficult to even do detection some would think is "easy…

I don't have a spouse. Just wanted to say I have a hard time meeting men AND making friends in Seattle, even as a female software engineer working in video games. I've used Tinder …

I feel your pain. My manager treat problems I mention as just my problems and not as a team/culture problem that I am particularly vocal about. My current manager views me so negat…

> Autism and Asperger's occur more frequently among boys than girls. More males are diagnosed, doesn't necessarily mean it occurs more.
