First world problems...

I've been working at this startup as a tech lead for a little over a year, and we've grown from 3 to over 150 employees, and a bit over a million end users.

I've spent tens of thousands on high end displays and chairs for your lazy butts, on external consultants to help and train you, even those fucking dirty recruiters have leeched their shares of the pie. I built an amazing luxury kitchen with a fridge, beer cooler, induction plates and a blender for all your crossfitting bodybuilder meals, but forgot to think of my own needs.

NOW I JUST WANT TO BUY A GOOD COFFEEMAKER AND ALL THESE FUCKING TEASLURPING FAKE DEV-BROS SUDDENLY START SCREAMING ABOUT BUDGETS AND HOW COFFEE IS NOT NECESSARY IF YOU MEDITATE. FUCK YOU, WE'RE LIKE THE ONLY STARTUP IN THE COUNTRY RUNNING A FAT PROFIT. I DON'T CARE ABOUT YOUR STUPID MINDFULNESS IOS APP. GIVE ME MY FUCKING ESPRESSO OR I'LL BLEND YOUR BALLS INTO A PROTEIN SHAKE.

I think I'm going to delete my account.

I browsed through my personal feed, and even though I've spend some time curating, only about 1 in a 100 is a real rant. The rest are memes, mildly funny observations, the kind of programmer humor which is only funny to non-programmers, and bland anekdotes.

And when I post something IN ALL CAPS WITH SOME FUCKING CURSEWORDS AND RAGE IN THERE YOU CUNTS ALL TELL ME TO CALM DOWN AND BE MORE POSITIVE?

What kind of a weak, smoothieslurping mindfulness convention has this community become? Do you guys just want to be a mildly funny reddit clone for easily offended hipsters?

This place was my outlet, my venting space, the spot where I didn't feel alone in frustrations.

I find this new content fucking sickening.

One of the bigger and more important IT projects this fall. Technical solution proposal needs to be ready by Thursday morning but is far from complete. Solution? The responsible person for this went on a two day mindfulness training. Apparently totally oblivious to the term "sense of urgency". Must be a citizen of procrastiNATION.

DevRant truth: as a white man in my 40s, the only socially accepted (and taught when I was younger) coping mechanisms are smoking and drinking too much and other questionable life choices.

What I tell everyone else: I go for a walk and then do some mindfulness practice.

Unpopular opinion: I find most office gimmicks which have been popularized by FAANG companies are stupid.
I don’t care about pool tables/videogames/nerf guns, I find these things fun but I’m not 9 therefore I don’t need them at my workplace, I can take care of myself so I don’t need mindfulness seminaries, if I get interested by the topic I’m able to provide myself books or seminaries and don’t get me with the salary I get every month and don’t get me started about the trend of office dogs: most dogs needs a lot of attention and are high energy animals, that’s not what I would need around me when I’m making an urgent bug fix.
Luckily my company hasn’t got into this shit and understands which all an adult professional needs is “just” a good pay and a good work environment.

[this post is not a joke, it's about health, ladies might want to avoid reading it as it about defecating]

i did mindfulness during shitting and i think more people shud try this.
instead of just pooping without giving any attention to it or using phone while pooping, you can use your phone for guided meditation with apps like Trip, Calm, ...
While shitting I noticed small things like the water tap, I slowly rotated it; first the water came in drops(listen to it), then in a small stream, then a turbulent flow.
If your attention drifts away, gently observe that its a thought and let it pass.
focus on what is happening right now. Feel how your anus vibrates to fart, giving a tingling sensation.
focus on how the turd comes out of the anus, the way it expands your sphincter muscles and finally drops in the crapper.

Practice gratitude. I realised how lucky I'm to shit comfortably in solidarity, many people in the world don't even have such privilege.
I feel good that I've flush mechanism in my toilet and 24x7 water supply. The shitting time can be utilised in a very positive way like this.
Look at your shit and wonder this used to be food, and be grateful to your digestive system.

How do you turn off work mode when you clock out of your job?

Anyone here practice mindfulness? Got any tips for staying mindful while in front of a computer and coding? and at work?

On sick leave, watching commercial news circus and being as laid back as I can. A bit of a panic going on, but after the news I'll go outside and ask employer for the rest of the week off.

Some pro tips for relaxation and mindfulness?

Holy fucking crap, think I actually got some productive, positive output from this whole generative AI debacle.
Rather because I skipped the whole Prompt step and used FOMO blabber against itself.

Some context: at my last gig we had a whole "humanware procurement department" (A.K.A. "hiring managers", those fucks who think that javascript and java are the same thing). It was during the pandemic tech hiring boom. At this new joint I'm at, a MUCH smaller company, I gotta do it myself. Boring as fuck but at least I can get some good karma by not making an ass of myself for candidates, and trying to make this whole process a tad less abusive.
I got my reading up to date, and surprisingly enough, "yankee dandy" (HBR) has actually been saying one or two things that are not complete hogwash. For a start, they say that companies have been making their hiring processes overly complex and even after hours of interviews they hardly measure half the skills they actually need, and spend too long talking about many skills that are not actually required for the positions.
"Huh. That sounds like the inneficiencies that the stupid 'AI will make meetings more efficient' industry is overpromising to overturn"

So I tried a new thing. Instead of your off-the-shelf "solve this NP-Hard problem in O(1) then draw this bird using only your nose then invert a binary tree in COBOL then tell me what type of sitcom character are you" crap, I tried grasping how it would be like to work with the candidates. One at a time. Not too long, but not too short talks. I'm not trying to check if a kid really knows how to implement a solution for the TSP in apache spark, or if they know every cipher in TLS 1.3. I just want to know if they can understand a technical request and come to me with a plan on how to solve it without handholding or "just use a really big VM, like, 32Tb of RAM!"
Thus, if I can work with them. That's all. The rest are specific skills that can be trained in time, if the person is willing to learn new stuff.
But that is not good enough for HR, ooooh, no. You "need" an "objective way of measuring their skills", otherwise its "just biased opinions."

But that gave me an idea.
See, our HR VP is someone deep in the whole AI pyramid scheme, who drank the kool-aid and swallowed up even the cup. FOMO is their name. Hype is their business.
I posh'd up my bullshit'ish jargon and went whole "In the advent of new disruptive technologies, strategic skills can be acquired with grit and proper AI prompting. Thus, leveraging our collaborative intelligence capabilities we can hack our challenges and optimize our resources to offer more innovative opportunities and bolster our employer branding" - translation: "shut up and lemme hire someone good and reasonably priced instead of a sleazy smooth talker who wants 100M just to show up and play with chatgpt all day". The whole point is to make it sound like "we're using AI, so it's good" instead of "im doing the work I'm being paid for, so it's old-fashioned"

It seems like the HR troll swallowed it, bait and hook. Maybe all we really needed this whole time is to say the magic word "AI," especially if it makes absolutely no sense in the context. Now I want to get them to sign off on a "AI mindfulness bolstering platform" (a massage chair). Fingers crossed.

I like many Apple products but if there's a thing I hate about that company its their aspirational marketing: they doesn't sell computers, phones, tablets, earbuds and stuff anymore, they want to sell you a "perfect lifestyle" (perfect from the perspective of Californian tech-bros) where you'll be super fit, super organized, devour self help content like no tomorrow while taking pixel perfect notes, do mindfulness and breathing exercises, juggle 5 social events a day... and all it takes to achieve that is buying "just one more device".

- Learn at least one new programming language
- Start a new personal project
- Push things into my GitHub
- Complete one certification
- Exercise
- Practice mindfulness
- Read atleast 1 book per quarter

I've talked to people, psychiatrists and tried religion just so I can stop watching porn.

I have a beautiful wife, MSc degree in engineering and well-payed job.

But for some reason, whenever I'm alone my mind bursts images of porn, and before I know it, I'm watching porn.

Despite the things I've achieved, it feels like my true potential is hold back.

This influences my mood, development work and so on.

Mindfulness doesn't work, plugins to block it doesn't work and talking to someone doesn't work. Everything is tried.

Three pillars of modern society:
- communism
- mindfulness
- rap music

**From Silent Meditation to Crypto Salvation: How I Lost—and Recovered—$95,000 in Bitcoin During a Wellness Retreat**

When I imagined building my dream wellness retreat—a serene sanctuary of sunrise yoga, plant-based meals, and hammocks swaying above sun-drenched hills—I didn’t expect losing $95,000 in Bitcoin to become part of the journey. Yet, that’s exactly what happened. After years of mindful saving and investing in crypto, I was finally ready to bring my vision to life. To celebrate this new chapter, I checked into a weeklong silent meditation retreat. No phones. No screens. Just nature, breathwork, and the sweet stillness I had craved for years.

But by day four, my inner peace came to a crashing halt. I had misplaced the only copy of my recovery phrase—my sacred seed phrase journal, the key to my entire digital fortune. Gone. Vanished. Possibly burned in the ceremonial bonfire or folded into my gratitude mandala. I searched every inch of the cabin, from under the bunk beds to inside the compost toilet. Still nothing.

The realization hit like thunder in my chest. In a moment of desperation, I broke my vow of silence and whispered to a fellow attendee. Turns out, I wasn’t the only wisdom-seeker who had ever lost their keys. They quietly scribbled a name onto the back of a biodegradable napkin—like a modern-day mantra: **Mighty Hacker Recovery**. Digital Zen Masters to the Rescue, Once the retreat ended and I re-entered the noisy outside world, I contacted their team. From the very first message, they were like tech shamans—calm, focused, and reassuring. They didn’t shame me for losing the passphrase. Instead, they listened deeply and crafted a recovery plan using geo-tagged transaction data and behavior patterns. It felt oddly familiar—like the way I guide clients through the knots of their own stress. Seven breathless days later, I got the email I’ll never forget:

**“Your Wallet Has Been Recovered.”**
I wept. I laughed. I floated in pure euphoria. Not only had they recovered my Bitcoin—they restored my dream. And more than that, they reaffirmed my faith in the good that both humans and technology can do when wielded with wisdom.
**A New Chapter: Crypto Meets Consciousness**
Construction on my retreat is now underway. And in honor of my journey, I’ve added a special workshop for all my guests:
“Crypto Serenity: How to Maintain Inner Peace While Protecting Your Digital Assets.” I share my story openly, because this experience taught me something vital: True mindfulness also includes safeguarding your future.

So please—back up your passphrases. And if disaster strikes, don’t panic. Just reach out to the people who know how to bring digital peace back to your life.

I recommend Mighty Hacker Recovery with my full heart. WhatsApp: + 1 ( 4 0 4 ) 2 4 5 - 6 4 1 5 Find them on Facebook or search “Mighty Hacker Recovery” on Google.

Namaste—and stay backed up.

How to Manage Bipolar Disorder Naturally Alongside Medication

Bipolar disorder is a complex condition characterized by extreme mood swings, ranging from episodes of intense mania to debilitating depression. While medication forms the backbone of treatment, many patients seek natural methods to complement their prescribed regimen.
Managing this disorder holistically can improve overall well-being and reduce the severity of symptoms.

Understanding Bipolar Disorder and Its Types
Bipolar disorder is categorized into different types, each with varying symptoms and intensities:
• Bipolar I Disorder: Characterized by at least one full-blown manic episode that may or may not be followed by a depressive episode.
• Bipolar II Disorder: Involves recurring episodes of hypomania and major depression, but not full-blown mania.
• Cyclothymic Disorder: Features chronic mood fluctuations that are less severe than those seen in Bipolar I or II.

________________________________________
Bipolar Disorder Symptoms in Females

• Longer depressive episodes compared to manic episodes
• Rapid cycling between moods
• Increased anxiety during mood episodes
• Heightened emotional sensitivity

________________________________________
Natural Ways to Manage Bipolar Disorder

Incorporating natural strategies into your treatment plan can help stabilize mood and improve quality of life.

Here are some of the most effective methods:

1. Nutrition and Balanced Diet
Eating a well-balanced diet is essential for managing mood and energy levels. Focus on foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids, such as fish, chia seeds, and walnuts, as they are known to support brain health. Avoid excessive sugar, caffeine, and processed foods.
• Tip: Include whole grains, fruits, and vegetables to maintain steady energy levels.
2. Regular Exercise
Physical activity triggers the release of endorphins, which act as natural mood elevators. Exercise also reduces stress and promotes better sleep, both of which are critical in managing bipolar symptoms.
• Recommendation: Aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate exercise, such as walking, jogging, or yoga, five times a week.
3. Sleep Hygiene
Maintaining a consistent sleep schedule is crucial, as disruptions can trigger manic or depressive episodes. Develop bedtime routines and avoid stimulating activities like screen time before bed.
• Practice: Meditation or deep-breathing exercises before sleep can calm the mind and help maintain restful nights.
4. Mindfulness and Meditation
Mindfulness practices, including meditation and breathing exercises, can reduce stress and help patients better regulate their emotional responses. These practices increase awareness of mood changes, allowing individuals to act before a full episode occurs.
• Simple Practice: Set aside 10-15 minutes daily for mindfulness meditation.
5. Herbal Supplements
Some natural supplements, such as St. John’s Wort and Omega-3s, have been shown to benefit mood regulation. However, always consult with a healthcare professional before starting any supplements, as they may interact with prescribed medications.

How Psychological Therapies Complement Natural Methods
Natural strategies alone may not be enough to manage bipolar disorder fully, but combining them with psychological therapies enhances the benefits. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy, and family-focused therapy help address thought patterns, coping strategies, and relationship issues. Several experienced mental health professionals, including bipolar disorder psychologist doctors in Gurgaon, can guide patients through personalized therapy sessions for better outcomes.

When to Seek Professional Help from best Psychologists and Psychiatrists

While natural approaches can complement treatment, they are not substitutes for medical care. Patients experiencing severe mood changes should consider consulting one of the best doctors for bipolar treatment in Gurugram or bipolar disorder specialists in NCR. These professionals provide comprehensive care by combining medication, therapy, and lifestyle recommendations.
________________________________________
Conclusion
Managing bipolar disorder naturally alongside medication requires dedication and a combination of methods tailored to the individual’s needs. Balanced nutrition, regular exercise, good sleep hygiene. However, professional guidance is essential to ensure these strategies are effective and safe.

If you or someone you know is facing symptoms, reaching out to experienced psychologists and specialists in Gurugram can make a world of difference. By blending natural methods with expert care, individuals can take significant steps toward achieving long-term stability and improved well-being.

Well Taken Care Of™: Empowering Women Through Perimenopause and Menopause in Needham, MA

At Well Taken Care Of™, we understand that navigating the journey of perimenopause and menopause can be challenging. These natural life stages can bring about significant physical and emotional changes, and it’s crucial to have the right support system in place. Our team is committed to helping women in Needham, MA, and beyond manage and thrive during this transition with personalized care, expert guidance, and a holistic approach to health and wellness.

Located at 140 Gould St, Needham, MA 02494, Well Taken Care Of™ offers comprehensive services to support women through perimenopause and menopause. Whether you are just beginning to experience symptoms or have already entered menopause, we are here to provide the tools and resources you need to navigate this phase of life with confidence and ease.

Understanding Perimenopause and Menopause
Perimenopause and menopause are natural biological phases in every woman’s life, but they can bring about a range of physical, emotional, and mental changes. Here’s a closer look at each stage:

Perimenopause: This is the transitional phase leading up to menopause, typically beginning in a woman’s 40s, although it can start earlier. During perimenopause, the ovaries gradually produce less estrogen, leading to fluctuations in hormone levels. This phase can last anywhere from 4 to 10 years, and women may experience symptoms such as irregular periods, hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, sleep disturbances, and changes in skin or hair.

Menopause: Menopause is officially diagnosed when a woman has gone 12 consecutive months without a menstrual period. This phase marks the end of a woman’s reproductive years and is associated with a significant decrease in estrogen production. Symptoms can include hot flashes, weight gain, vaginal dryness, low libido, fatigue, and changes in mood.

While these changes are natural, they can affect a woman’s quality of life. Fortunately, at Well Taken Care Of™, we are dedicated to helping women manage these transitions and improve their overall well-being.

How Well Taken Care Of™ Can Support You Through Perimenopause and Menopause
At Well Taken Care Of™, we take a holistic approach to women’s health, providing support through nutrition, lifestyle adjustments, and functional medicine. Our goal is to help you find balance during perimenopause and menopause and empower you to live a vibrant, healthy life.

1. Personalized Nutrition Plans
Hormonal fluctuations during perimenopause and menopause can lead to weight gain, fatigue, and other physical changes. Our nutritionists can help you create a balanced, sustainable diet that supports your body’s needs during this time. This may include:

Hormone-balancing foods: Certain foods can support hormonal balance and reduce symptoms like hot flashes. We’ll guide you on including nutrient-dense foods that promote estrogen production, such as flaxseeds, tofu, and leafy greens.
Anti-inflammatory diet: Inflammation can worsen symptoms of menopause, such as joint pain and mood swings. We’ll help you incorporate anti-inflammatory foods like berries, nuts, and fatty fish to reduce discomfort.
Blood sugar regulation: Many women experience blood sugar imbalances during menopause, leading to weight gain and fatigue. Our nutritionists will provide meal plans that keep your blood sugar levels stable throughout the day.
2. Functional Medicine Approach
Functional medicine focuses on identifying and addressing the root causes of health issues. At Well Taken Care Of™, we use functional medicine to assess and address hormonal imbalances, digestive health, and inflammation—all of which can be exacerbated during perimenopause and menopause.

We offer personalized treatment plans that may include:

Hormone testing: We can test your hormone levels to understand your unique needs and help identify any imbalances that may be contributing to symptoms.
Herbal and supplement support: Based on your individual needs, we may recommend supplements such as magnesium, vitamin D, and phytoestrogens to help support hormone balance and reduce symptoms like hot flashes and mood swings.
Gut health support: Hormonal changes can impact gut health, leading to bloating and digestive discomfort. We provide dietary and supplement recommendations to improve digestion and support a healthy gut microbiome.
3. Lifestyle Coaching and Stress Management
Stress can exacerbate many symptoms of perimenopause and menopause, including anxiety, sleep disturbances, and hot flashes. Our health coaches can help you incorporate relaxation techniques, such as:

Mindfulness and meditation: These practices can reduce stress, improve sleep, and support emotional well-being during this transition.
Breathing exercises: Deep breathing exercises can help alleviate symptoms like hot flashes and anxiety.
