Is the author is suffering from depression?

Don't get me wrong-- most of his sections would sound familiar to any maintainer having to deal with growing technical debt. But the section headings "Communication" and "Resigned" are certainly red flags. And I've furrowed by brow four times now trying to grasp the connection between the author's astute observations about code maintenance and assertion, "I've become worse, not better, at programming."

Anyone know the author? If so it's worth sending a message to check in.
