Burnout and Depression (and other stress related health issues) are serious health issues that need to be taken care of seriously by real health professionals.
They are no different than other sickness, except that it has a stigma of the "mental illness".

I'm not so sure if this really helps. I mean, first of all, "real health professionals" are trained to cure people in a way to make them functional again - functional within the rat race of this society. They are not there to help you to really solve your problems, that would take too much time and effort, and no insurance will cover that kind of therapy because this society needs only functional, not sound and happy people. After all, the only cure from things like Burnout would be to get off the pressure this society puts upon everybody and return their freedom.
I can only recommend reading Escape from Freedom and other works by Erich Fromm to get the big picture I'm talking about.

You mean consulting a health professional is not a good thing?
Psychologist do not cure people (wacko sect gurus do claim to be able to cure people); they help you help yourself; it is a two way process (wrong word).
Escapism is not a cure and a full front assault is also not a cure.
Engaging oneself with a mental health professional is one way to help solve the stress/burnout/depression issues.
Well, here, we have insurances that covers that (up to a point).

If I help myself, it is not help - I did it myself. I'm not paying someone to help me help myself. That would be paying someone for me helping me? One must be a psychologist to make that sounds logical.
His point remains unchanged though; you get enough help to continue with the stuff that caused it.

When it comes to learning programming, some things have changed -- but not everything. Is there still a long lineup for the card reader?

Yes, because it broke and it's a "won't fix" issue.

On Tuesday, a pair of bitcoin entrepreneurs and the MIT Media Lab revealed a prototype for a system called Enigma, designed to achieve a decades-old goal in data security known as “homomorphic” encryption: A way to encrypt data such that it can be shared with a third party and used in computations without it ever being decrypted.

How have I never heard the term "Docktop" before? Too good.

Now that Microsoft has been pretty much neutralized as a threat, who’s next on the list to be free tech’s “public enemy number one?” Does that mean that the new Microsoft is the old Google, or does everyone just shift over one?

Meet the new boss. Same as the old boss.

Due to the Earth's slowing rotation, we have to pause the clocks for a second. Just turn it off and back on. Problem solved!

I already applied the leap second to my browser so it won't hurt me at all.
Serious calamity averted again, by my Super-Programming Skills.
The rest of you, good luck. I'll probably be the only one on the Internet for that second.

After prolonged negotiations, EU authorities have finally agreed on laws that will ban roaming charges and enshrine the concept of net neutrality into our legislative systems. Road trip!

Nice!  It's only a rip-off these days anyways.

Microsoft may be interested in buying AMD, according to a new report citing unnamed sources familiar with the matter. Because... because... wait, there has to be a reason, right?
|
|
|
|

I'm not seeing the reason. Don't be an IBM, Microsoft. You've done such a good job consolidating your bloated divisions and assets. Don't jump back into full-fledged hardware, Nadella.

It sounds like a scene from a straight-to-DVD animated movie, but two rival self-driving cars almost collided in the middle of a Silicon Valley street earlier this week. The futuristic-sounding near miss happened when Google’s autonomous Lexus RH400h prototype cut off Delphi’s Audi Q5 when it attempted to change lanes.
Google cutting off competitors?

But did Audi show the Lexus a middle finger? If not, there is a bug...

Today, you are walking with the equivalent of what was supercomputer not too long ago — in your pocket. Long live the new Moore's Law?

3D circuits is the way to go! Putting RAM next to CPU could eliminate much access latency.

Is that a supercomputer in your pocket or are you just glad to see me?
