Hi Michele! How is it going in Italy now? I am moving just south of Downtown, I've been in a more rural area (becoming far less rural very fast) so decided it was time to be near our #Tucson epicenter. I can't help it, at heart I will always be a city girl. To you and yours! xo/m

Must catch up to all since a social media diet was in order as I'm moving soon and a bit overwhelmed. As I imagine most are. Hang in there, and here's a reminder of the force of renewal in nature: The Sonoran Spring (La Primavera de Sonora). #WednesdayThoughts #WednesdayWisdom 🕊️

Hey now, I was comforting you. You comforted me! I love that. And you too. Every moment is an opportunity if we have the clarity. You sound more clear now. That's good. It's the roughest of rough. I dream of us all well and happy. Together, rocking an open and inclusive world.

Kurt: Thank you. Is it not absolutely fascinating how the worst times in humanity often precede a course correction? We have a lot of work left to do, but we have more tools than we seem to want to realize. Here's to a higher quality for all. Human. Kind.

You are so damn spot-on to both my experience, studies, and philophical musings. Depression is very real, but it manifests in a variety of ways depending on many things. Sadly there's also an agenda to push pills in the USA especially because: MONEY is the value over life.

Stay well, stay healthy, thank you for being my joy and enduring my pain. I know better now. There is amazing awesome in the dawn of wisdom born of a near and very full, extreme and fascinating time on planet earth. Love you all, always. Forgive, scale up, stay away from Prozac.

The common thread: out of 43 people all but two were on or recently taken off of Anti-Depressants. Most SSRIs, some first gen. 99% in the SSRI group specifically: Prozac.
So why are we ONLY looking at guns if we look at all? There's clearly data there that needs more study.

Read a horrific article about mass murderers around 2000-2010 (pre Oslo, Vegas, etc). 43 people. 41 males, 2 females. By "race/ethnicity": 1 "Asian"; 1 "black". 39 "white" men. 1 white woman, 1 hispanic. The women and a few of the men were over 40. Majority male, white, 20s.

There's another example of Cartesian Duality fail. Separation of mind/body in Medicine is just plain illogical if not outright stupid. Evidence? Remove a head from a living human is death. Give a human medicines for decades for wrong diagnoses? Misery and two resucitations.

My skin gets goosebumps when I remember the passion and optimism working toward an ideal emerging in a fascinating way that was vehemently declarative, meaningful, accessible, free, open, useful, content rich. Best days in my life because it was the world. the wide. The Web.

If you can see the photo in Håkon's post regarding the pre CSS style in NeXT, there's some flavor and differences in the humans standing in front of a globe of the earth. One, few, many to all. Some diversity there in the genetic stories.
We gotta Scale up!

The escape, I believe, out of loops that do not help us all advance toward a higher standard and ethic is understanding monoculture and duality limit scale both in our individual selves on up to all of human kind.
I'd really prefer a world less loopy. How about you?

Pick most human systems and: Same issue. There has to be interop within the individual to scale up via many to serve the greatest number of humans. We are scaling down right now, Web and society. It's not that we don't have the tools.
We created a loop and forgot an escape.

Fast forward to JS-First/Framework-First development and no browser diversity and we are worse off than before. Monoculture does not promote interoperabilty in software, nor in society. Binary thinking has also hurt us. DOM breakage in IE (correct) and Netscape (<layer> WTF?)

So yes of course the individual in any system process matters, but it was the many not the few who had to do the real hard work. I remain in awe of those many folks within and outside. It took a lot of people from different ideals to open a few minds to enormous change.

I nearly lost it laughing my ass off. Here's the father of JS looking to an unconventional use and seeing it also as a point of opening a door to more interop for the at-the-time most dominant browser in the world.

Funny aside: There was an AJAX conference where @BrendanEich was asked by an audience member during a panel. I and Chris and several others from the standardista world were there. "How do we fix the ie6 issue?" Brendan hit the mic and said "Dean Edwards Dean Edwards Dean Edwards"
