See picture.

Self-diagnosis doesn’t help with relationships IMHO either and I mean that both from a personal and professional perspective.
Why you might ask?
YMMV but for me, I am an open book. Having the diagnosis meant I could talk to bosses when trying a new med, or explain to them when struggling. Knowing the diagnosis means you immediately diffuse an aspect of a challenge. For me, that has been immensely valuable.
Edit - wanted to add a common counterpoint is don’t let work know because you can’t predict people who will use your honesty against you. I will argue assholes are assholes and you can’t live your life at the possibility someone will be a dick. Most people are good people. Trust on that.
LOL.
As a Canadian, good fucking luck.
That role? Life.
Amen. Virtue is the bomb, but also rum
Guns don’t protect children. They’re the leading cause of death in children.
Fucking THANK YOU!
Because writ large we are all under staffed and it we need to cut something it’s QA.
Good.
Cheap.
Fast.
Businesses have shown time and time again they choose cheap and fast. Good is a problem for the future.
MVP baby!
My gut says you’re overly optimistic lol
People need to understand that when a tech company is “disrupting” it means they’re exploiting legal loopholes.
The amount of times I’ve logged off work with a coding problem only to stew on it for 4 hrs including when I’m laying in bed. I’m not billing work for any minute of that nor would I be able to if I tried. Game is fucking rigged in favour of the employer.

It’s gonna get real scary. Military is watching climate change like a hawk. It’s real and what you said is going to lead to insane destabilizing factors we aren’t prepared for.
The question back is what harm is it to you that I attribute the creation of the universe to a giant spaghetti Monster? What harm is it to you that I attribute the vast unknowns of the ocean to Cthulhu?
The flaws you mention come from organization which I am very clearly distancing from. Faith can exist without religion and organization. Religion cannot exist without faith.
The sooner we decouple these two things the quicker we can move forward as a species IMHO
There will always be that which we can’t explain. It doesn’t matter how advanced we get. We will never know what is upstream from the most recent discovery. Evidence will never exist for everything and I personally am at peace with that. The problem as I see it is you are attributing “god” to that gap when it’s far more nebulous than that.
So I’ve been at a corporate offsite all week. I’m sick of hearing about “alpha” and “genai”. Business and leadership are so up their own asses. I’ve been holding back so long on asking a question around the general morality of the bed they’re making. I’m so curious where the future is going to go. We are in an arms race when it comes to LLMs
The world needs more faith.
Upvoted just on this and you’re right. I have faith but fuck religion. Religion is man made and flawed AF. I have a deep relationship with “God” and talk to them regularly. People need to drop their inhibitions and expand their minds.
Anon is a retard. Also why did that word go out of style? I know damn well it’s because it was abused but by definition:
to delay or impede the development or progress of : to slow up especially by preventing or hindering advance or accomplishment
It’s a fair critique. We need to stop this PC bullshit. I’m saying this as a father of two children in the spectrum and neither of them are retards.
I’ve been pondering this one because I grew up a country boy and now live in the city. What you’re talking about still exists. I live in Newmarket, ON and still rarely lock my doors and so all the things you mention.
John Ralston Saul said, and I’m paraphrasing, what made Canadians special was the uniqueness in how we came to be. Our relationship with “the other” now defined as immigrants, comes from a natural place of understanding and respect. You become a Canadian but you also keep your identity because Canada is made stronger by that inter-weaving of social fabrics.
I will agree that our country is hurting but I would argue the biggest threat to our nation is the immigration of American style identity politics that started back in the 80’s and has since escalated to a wave of “Fuck Trudeau”.
I have said before what truly scares me is that the Conservative movement in all their bigoted while male centric policies has realized that they can synergize their vitriol with people who have come here from brutally regressive countries when it comes to the treatment of women, gays and minorities.
Big picture we are going in the right direction but it’s going to be a rough decade or so.
The same reasons as from a professional experience. Yes they aren’t going to pull the doctor’s note but neither is work IMHO. What it does is provide more weight behind your words of “hey I’m not just googling this shit. I’m not just an insufferable asshole looking to validate that I am. I’m actually working with a psychologist.”
Friends, just like coworkers, etc. care less of the diagnosis. They want to know you’re working on you because I’d argue writ large people want to see you succeed. A self-diagnosis can help but it doesn’t give you access to all the tools you may need to succeed so from the outside I would argue that official diagnosis matters. It means you now have someone else on your “team” be it a GP or a psychologist or whatever helping you navigate things.
