Am working on https://www.savio.io We help product teams centralize their customer feedback from tools like Intercom, Help Scout, and Slack, and then use it to make data-driven decisions about what features to build. My business partner and I have sold two SaaS businesses (we started one and bought the other). Savio is our third. It was born from the frustrations we had at the first two. We'd get lots of customer fee…

I'm trying to clean up the app I wrote, that pulls data out of a PostGres database and denormalizes the data based on a simple config file and then pushes the denormalized data into ElasticSearch, so that the frontend code can query the data. I'd like to eventually release the app as Open Source, as I think it is a more practical way of doing some of the things that GraphQL is supposed to do. I wrote a little bit about it here:

working on my crippling depression / ADHD, unemployed (i don't want to work anymore in anything) 6 months , 0 productivity. learned a lot of category theory, functional programming and c++ tho.

Start a journal to track your diet and any pertinent symptoms. After a week or two, when you have a baseline picture of your current diet, look up some articles on research connecting diet and depression.

Off the top of my head: Certain oils are pertinent -- some should be avoided, others sought out -- and iron deficiency can cause depression.

I quit my job last month to work full time on (what I think is) an under-explored area of climate change: how institutional investors block shareholder proposals calling for firms to adopt more climate-friendly policies. I have just published the first bit of research with data on how 500+ funds from the big 3 fund managers voted on climate change-related proposals in 2018: https://voting.greengovernance.org . Later…

Is there somewhere one could follow your work for updates?

Staying sane by staying busy. My wife is slowly dying and is a thousand miles away at a hospital, hoping they can save her. Today I cleaned a workshop area that I'd been using for storage so that I could use it as an actual workshop. I have car parts to rebuild (Chevy 350 TBI at least) and I have things to build, like a recumbent bicycle from scratch. I am also working on learning CW (aka Morse code), learning to pla…

Thoughts going out to you and your family. I’d be interested in checking out your blog!

Cool, it takes time. I picked up the electric guitar, again, I am aiming to be a decent guitarist in ten years. I currently play bass in a hobby metall band which is fun.

How did you stop your fingers hurting?

Practise. Short sessions often. Better 15 minutes every day than 2 hours on the weekend.

That's very kind, thank you. https://miscdotgeek.com. I didn't post it because it wasn't relevant, but now it is I guess :)

I ask a lot of questions here sometimes. None of them have been nearly as rewarding at this. If you ever need a remote-buddy to discuss/hack on things, let me know. I can't imagine what you're going through but it's good to remain positive and productive. My email is j.horne2796@gmail.com

I appreciate your kindness :)
