Looking to pivot to a similar approach, any chance I can reach out to you or follow you on Twitter?

Going to an engineering college where the demographic was 99% male, I guess I was determined to finish alone ;). But honestly 100% agreed with your point, even with online dating, a lot of people end up dating people they know or people they meet through a common friend.

You could also make an argument that search for meaning is an escapism from experiencing life.

Having a 15 to 30 minutes nap when my brains is mushy usually allow me to reset and get my mind in a more energized state, might be worth trying for you too.

No, small side projects will definitely help you stand out when you're applying for a junior position since you don't have a lot of experience yet.

You're saying this because black on white hurts your eyes? Because if I'm reading something, I really don't care about what the text looks like and that's what black on white is good at: distraction free reading.

I've used the script provided by the top answer here before and it worked! No need for an extension (I don't know if it still works however).

I unfollowed all my friends(you can also use an extension that removes your feed), now I have the pros of Facebook which is being connected to people I care about while not having to fight a feed-looking/time-wasting addiction.
I only use facebook for messenger and events now and it works quite well.

Don't get too caught up with success stories about "epic programmers", there's more than one path to a what you want. Stay focused and you'll get closer everyday.

Might be true, but telling a depressed person to smile more or "it's just chemicals" won't help them. Helping a depressed is a very different fight and getting them to understand there is a life much happier to live has nothing to do with chemicals.
