Re:Ask HN: I think I’ve burnt out. What should I do? on Monday January 27, 2020 @07:26PM (#22165265)
The trick to burnout is don't believe it exists. I stopped believing I'm actually burned out, and I've experienced much less burnout by simply not giving into it. Perseverance. But actually it does exist and it can take a strong hold sometimes, but you shouldn't feel yourself "becoming" or easing into burnout. If you are, you're giving into it, letting it take you. Persist until it's an unavoidable thing, then discuss with therapist if needed. Take the advice from others about physical activity and whatnot.

Living in Japan, I feel like they've naturally developed the culture of changing the color of the sky. I mean to say they always find ways of getting the people to blow cash to keep money circulating. Most companies here have like 3x more staff helping me or standing around than in Canada. Consumerism and state marketing is big too.
I agree it mostly a British thing, but I say it was their land. Never in history has territory been invaded and capture and then partially given back to the people with special rights like it has in North America. I think native Indians should just be Canadian and that's it, none of this special rights seclusion bullshit. I never did get why we did it? I feel like it's not even helping or what most want, is it just a bad compromise at this point?
I doubt they will cancel the orders. Amazon lives by customer service. They seem to just write off their mistakes directly from revenue. I learned this when I was scammed for a $5000 and Amazon let the scammer keep, refunded me and closed the issue in one fell swoop.

Ask HN: Open Source Alternative to Stack Overflow?

We're looking for a place our partners can collaborate on questions/answers about our platform. We're thinking of going with Confluence Questions for now. I would love to have a higher quality portal along the lines of Stack Overflow. Something like Rocket.Chat on Meteor that deploys to Heroku. Perhaps something really nice that already exists on Meteor could be tailored for questions/answers....

Always a little disappointed when I remember ReactOS does not mean React.js OS.

Technically feasible, sure. But with a higher risk of introducing security vulnerabilities than most features.
Canada?
