If people who feel like terminating their life, got help, I strongly believe there was be a large drop in suicide.

Don't rush it.

We all heard it's a permanent solution to a temporary problem and so many other quotes. I've lost a lot of people growing up to suicide and the impact it has on those who continue to live on that you love is traumatic.

The man who raised me like I was his son told my mother that he would never commit suicide. He had stage 4 cancer that eventually took his life on my 17th birthday. His reason for enduring through the pain was to teach me that suicide is never the answer because it hurts all those around you.

Although he passed away on my 17th birthday of his illness, he forever changed my life in so many ways. Each and every day I aim to be a better man because of how he loved me.

Please take a moment to utilize this time you have to change those around you. You don't need to create a massive company, be a CEO, have a career people admire, etc.. all you need to do is be someone that inspires others to improve like John did for me.

The best part about HackerNews, is that you get a very good sense of the envious and jealous nature of people. A lot of the "hate" or "angry" comments, are basically people who hate their relationship with "work".

To the author, I think you'll continue that process of being useful, but you'll see that in this new world, you're usefulness now scales..

In HTML, div and span are fundamental elements but differ in their roles due to display behavior and use cases. A div is a block-level container (display: block) that takes up the full width of its parent and starts on a new line, making it ideal for structuring layouts or grouping multiple elements, like sections or cards. A span is an inline container (display: inline) that flows within text without breaking the line, perfect for styling small pieces of content, like a word or phrase, or targeting text for JavaScript.

Use div for layout and grouping, such as a container for a card component. Use span for inline tweaks, like highlighting text. Prefer semantic elements (e.g., section or strong) when possible for better accessibility. Both are non-semantic and can be styled with CSS or scripted, but their default behavior guides their use: div for structure, span for inline finesse.

Example: A div might wrap a title and paragraph for a card component, while a span could highlight a single word in a sentence.

One thing I loved about Bob, is regardless of what he built, who he knew or worked with, you would never see him lean on that to express who he was..

Bob was just a real person with a passion for programming and helping people.

Looking back on my time knowing Bob, I do regret not taking him up on his offer to work with him. I could only imagine how I would have grown as a person by working closely with him.

I do want to say, Bob clearly had a consistency in his style of clothing. It didn't changed over the years.. lol

It all still seems unreal.

He has two adorable little girls; 1.5 years old and 2 months.

His kids are pretty calm, by most standards.. but you can't let the older one out of sight for a few seconds.

I certainly feel your pain even though I don't have kids.

Question: Tell me how much you love going to the bathroom or getting washed now. It's the only time you have to yourself lol

Item #4 - I fully disagree. Some choices are scary to actually make, but are healthy. For instance, my mom stayed with her abusive husband for many years because she had Stockholm syndrome. If you had asked her why didn't she leave during that time, she would say "I didn't have a choice". Ask her now, and she will tell you "Fear - fear of not knowing how things would work out."

Sometimes the hardest choices to make are the impossible choices.
