At last the truth can be told.
miesman··on Ask HN: I'm being stiffed by a client. What are my options?
Make sure you split up any invoices such that no amount is over the max for small claims court. You can then take them to court over each individual invoice.

In big court there are 4 people involved. You, them, their attorney and your attorney. Only 2 of those people are going to win.

miesman··on Ask HN: How did you deal with depression?
I struggled with depression for YEARS. I tried everything I could find. Exercise helped a lot. Coffee helped. Meditation helped. All of these things worked but I was still in really down. Finely after years I decided what have I got to lose and went on antidepressants.

It was the best thing I ever did. The world opened up for me. I was able to make a lot of changes that were very healthy in my life. I finely had outside interests other than work and sleep. It was like night and day.

Perhaps it's a weakness on my part but it's difficult for me to see this as anything other than karma
miesman··on Ask HN: How do you deal with after work fatigue?
I find that taking short breaks for intense things like studying and coding helps. I shoot for 50 Min on 10 off. Time off will be something undemanding like slashdot or hacker news. Tweak the times to find what works.

Also if you go wide open for any long period with no down time you are going to burn out and start thrashing. 2 weeks is my limit.

Intention is important. If I start the day with the intent of having something left over for myself at the end it really helps.
