Facebook's primary aim is to get you to stay so keeping your attention is key to getting you to look at more ads. You feel depressed by looking at other people's Facebook webpages which look positive and happy so you compare it to you own sad, miserable life. Reality is folk mostly post positive reinforcing stories, not the crap in their lives that you'd miss otherwise. The best way to deal with social media is to stop using it completely. Life is too short to waste your precious minutes on this planet using Facebook.

Write all the things on your mind down so you can forget them. If you fear retaliation from your superiors then get another job.
Don't tell them your phone number then they can't add you to some BS WhatsApp group.
This is just a waste of time when the real culprits are the oil companies. If people are serious about this then they need to go after the real culprits, not shave a few specs from around the edges.
I don't even say "no thanks" as I simply ignore them. I am not interested in going through some random company's BS hiring hazing ritual. I will interview and draw a few diagrams on the whiteboard for 3-4 hours max then walkout if you're wasting my time.
Can I use Linux in this unactivated state like Windows 10 allows me to do indefinitely?
Been working remotely for more than 15 years and decline to work in an office ever again. I go in once every two weeks for a day to do white boarding design work and hardware analysis. Beyond that, no chance.
Anonymity allows you to be freed from your inhibitions. If statements in real life were made as callously then people might fear for their employment, housing situation, family issue, schools, etc., being impacted in some manners. Those enforce boundaries that your inhibitions generally restrain you from breaking. As you get older then you are less restrained due to lack of boundaries. 2 cents.
Crypto is a Ponzi scheme made from FUD. Nothing more. If you profit from it then you are extremely lucky as somebody lost a heck of a lot of $$$ to make than happen.
Try giving away free stuff on Craigslist. The litany of contacts from people is mind blowing. Some are "Can you hold it for me?" and "Can you deliver it to me for free?"
Red Hat.
The thing about Computer Science nowadays is that the machines are stupidly fast so that a lot of the algorithm stuff is redundant. Bubble sort can be good enough or isn't even required for implementation as the higher order primitives are already implemented. In a lot of ways it's why SW development nowadays is nauseatingly awful. Sprints and all that web baggage have killed the enjoyment and challenge. The only challenging SW roles I see nowadays are close to the HW.
Ask HN: Are there better note taking apps than One Note? What?

It was always fool's gold to me.
Tik Tok is just the latest in an endless waste of time social media networks.
The real utility for something like this is where you are working and leave a Zoom room with camera running so folks can drop in and ask you questions then leave. Sort of like in a non-remote setting at an office. Quite effective.
I play darts too.
Irish passport is the golden ticket. Get access to the EU and CTA.
It's because he is so high profile and a visionary in his field at Apple. Or was. He is merely an early big fish swimming away so expect more as draconian old-school companies try to drag employees back to their cubes.
It's when you have an power cut for a number of hours do you realize what a waste of time it is. When you have no electric then there's many other things to think about.
As well as being depressing, social media is a total time suck that provides zero productivity. It is a dumpster of dross that should be set alight. The most terrible organization for this is clearly Facebook or whatever their latest name they try to hide under is. Zuck has a lot to answer for. A lot.
