I have suffered from depression on and off for about 24 years now. There are many problems associated with the hacker/geek lifestyle. But there are also lots of things you can do: Make up your mind to get rich and start acting on that. Date girls (don't be picky, either). Express yourself without fear. Exercise and eat properly. Avoid porn. Forgive yourself and everyone else. None of these are a complete solution in themselves, but they each help take the edge off the pain when applied at the necessary time, and they do help to make things better.
And we're past 200.. hmm I reckon we need to starting getting serious about a big run of the stickers with staged distribution down to local groups...
oeh 99 members now... a momentous occasion... who will be #100?
And then I reckon we should quickly go to 1000, eh!
really worthy cause. especially in the open source world where we sometimes only get a chance to share appreciation for eachother at conferences
If you would like to get some of the current stickers, see http://bluehackers.org/2009/02/02/if-...
