<p>Druhgs. Dropped his dealer and got the Gustav.<p>I'm kidding. Once you know what, you can check your patterns against the standard and the deviations. Then you can approach the circuits that are fucked and identify triggers.<p>Best to get to the roots of the reinforcement in childhood, though. 
Behaviors and preferences surpressed, people you didn't beat up for reasons and so on, behavioral triggers, when you held back and why. What distracted you when you did a specific thing or the other. And, of course, the standard stuff, what were you rewarded for and did you really care about that thing yourself?<p>Might take a while but it'll be worth it.</p>

<p>> But then whenever there’s a sale or a positive comment, I get another small jolt of motivation and I can build a bit again.<p>There's your solution. Positivity regarding your productivity, which is imperfectly normal, fuck your mental health.<p>No sale, no comment, no problem. Find something that rewards your productivity or tech savvy.<p>Put your projects on git, you'll get forks and stars (maybe). Maybe pieces will get adopted elsewhere. Talk about how you did what. Grow, help others. Do the opposite, hack something, for example, or reverse engineer something that'll be rewarding by itself: "holy shit, thatt's how they did it?".<p>If you don't have "it" internally, get it from elsewhere.</p>

<p>Out of two people with chronic outbreaks of Herpes who I have taught to counter the adagio of any stress and equip the rest of the  mind against unhealthy stress in general ( recurringly; I haven't found a way to hard-code such a root in adult minds ), only one applies my teaching and is affected 20+ times less by Herpes than before and per year in comparison to the other person. One is also a lot more consistent regarding his diet and eliminated any "impure" saucage like Salami, Mortadella et al as well as most cheeze.<p>In our family and their social circles, Alzheimers and Dementia are quite prevalent, but absent in any siblings who ate and drank (liquor) "more expensive" and less "impure" ( impurities introduced in all the steps of agri-/horticulture and (ultra-/processing) ).<p>Some stuck to the epithany that "this is not real meat" and "this is not real milk" when they arrived from the East, others didn't. Some noticed the effects of concentrates vs whole ingredients and others didn't.<p>IMO, focus on what happens to the nerves in body rather than brain when they are affected by anything "artificial" or "impure". Alzheimers , Dementia, Herpes and so on are the end of a long line of "stuff that happens".</p>

<p>It's PR. As I see it, most likely a manufactured narrative. Matches the Trump, Bannon, ElonX, Right Wing x Conservatives strategies/pattern run in the US and Europe. All some part of BlackRock et al.<p>Don't let it distract you at all, it'll get into your own subtext and if you are not trying hard to monetize off their sides/game, you'll end up making financial/investment mistakes (if applicable) or spreading misinformation or impeding proper information flow.<p>There's good money and ground to be made acting against them, which won't "turn the tides" but it can make it a good bit harder for them which would help them evolve a bit. For now, they are unfit for the role they aspire to. So if you can, sparr with them without mercy and help them grow into it.</p>

<p>Forgive me for asking but don't crypto currencies amplify the causes of inflation while mostly benefitting majority shareholders of non-stablecoins?<p>I'm about to start making good money and have started to think about how to properly set up myself for a hopefully non-DeepImpact future and as much as I liked the original idea of the Bitcoin and the Blockchain, what it resulted in - so it appears to me - is mostly a bunch of schemes amplifying the damaging effects of financial institutions that we have not been able to integrate solutions for yet.</p>
