I have been dealing with a bad relationship (totally my fault) due to attachment issues (anxious-avoidant) and rOCD as a result of it. Really annoying stuff, pretty much have ended my relationship cause of it.

They pay salaries based on the location of the employees, which kinda sucks.
Why don't you make an effort to meet new people and expand your social circle?

I don't recommend using the class syntax and I would even advise to favour composition over inheritance.

What I took from it is to take it easy, sit back, and relax. To stop worrying about not making more money, about that book you haven't read, that workout routine you skipped, that udacity course you haven't completed, or that book you haven't started writing. Don't be too hard on yourself.
Re:From Freelancer to Founder on Thursday January 14, 2016 @04:27PM (#10904622)
Dom, congratulations on your success. You are really an inspiration to me.

I'm currently employed full-time (also in Canada) and have a lot of down time doing angular/react. I have been taking some steps to get involved in the freelancing world.

After some research I found that WordPress is an easy platform to get started with as a freelancer, so I'm currently learning it.

What would your advice be to me? is going the wordpress route a good idea? How do I get clients?

Join a local facebook group. I joined a local music/partying facebook group and have met tons of new people after that through regular meetups.

What's your password? I could check the file to see if it's there. I found one of mine. Does anybody know from where these passwords are from?

Re:Drug addiction: The complex truth on Friday September 13, 2013 @09:49AM (#6380399)
Addiction is not just about the substance (alcohol, cocaine, heroine) or the behavior (Sex, gambling, video games).

A person is an addict even before that person has that first try. There are many other factors that condition someone to become an addict. There are genetic factors, environmental factors, other underlying mental issues, etc.
