Agreed. Also we all have our eyes on so much these days (we see ALL the news from everywhere) there is no way that doesn't affect people. Plus here in the US, the divide between rich and poor grows. The stress of seemingly innocuous every day life has it's toll and I don't think a lot of people recognize that in them selves yet.

I totally agree, mental health for everyone even for people who are healthy!

Yeah I get that. I'm in the same boat about making friends. I'm great at it in situations where I see them everyday. But working from home... So I'm trying to meet up with a gaming group at a store once a week. Monday is my first official day so I'll see how it goes

This is very very true! I take medication and it's great but it's not enough. Mental health support (therapy) is so important

It's different as I grow. But right now, affordable mental health support and a friend.

I moved to a new state and have no friends and work from home.

I'm trying my best but... I wish it was easier

I enjoy reading about this change because everytime someone writes something like. Look what x did. My first thought isn't of Twitter or any social media, it's: "who's x?" (As in replacement variable)

So stupid to rebrand like that. Oh well, never used Twitter anyways

Yeah that's what I grew up learning and my mom taught me that x is kisses o is hugs. Til that it's seen and way!

I suppose it has to do with being stateless.

I just loved learning about lambda calculus.

I think the idea is to remove complexity by never dealing with state, so you just have one long reduction till you get to the final state...

But someone who's more into lambdas etc should speak about this and not me (a weirdo)

I loved learning lambda calculus (though for me it was super hard)

So what I've seen, there are already a lot of home grown dating apps, the problem is that they don't have a huge user base.

For example I joined a nerd focused dating app and got one message a month later (I also reached out to a lot of people).

So I think it can be done but the real question is how to generate a large enough user base to make it useful...
