Jeese louise being pedantic about the wording of a feeling is just completely lacking in compassion. This post isn’t about you. Good job making yourself feel better while belittling the struggles of someone else.
“I had it worse than you and figured it out” just ain’t it dude. Same with “just be happy”
Life situations are all about individual perspectives, and I appreciate /mchannon's perspective. Besides, the OP posted in public, so all responses are valid, including non-sympathetic ones.
For real. The concept of “you have to love yourself before you can love others” is cliché but.. bringing kids into the world, that are a massive responsibility, I think should be a decision made with a full understanding of the work and love needed to do it right.
How tf are you gonna have the emotional capacity for kids if you don’t have it even for yourself??
All happiness is rooted on purposive and positive mental ideation of one's existence. Having children will affect your mindset and worldview; for almost everyone I know this change has been positive.

This is just one of many views on the nature of happiness. For example, Buddhists have another view on it, including the possibility of achieving the unconditioned happiness (nibbana).

"Almost", so there's still a chance it could be a negative change on a personal level, even before considering genetic risks. I think a gamble like that can't be suggested to a depressed person.
1) Go to / be pointed the nearest train station, then ask random people for help close by if still can't see the number somewhere or parse the names. People all over are super willing to help even with a language barrier. They'll usually point you up a few streets, at landmarks, or general direction. I'd often end up having to ask like 4 people on the way lol
2) If you're meeting with friends, you meet at the train station then go from there.
I don't know how anyone got around there before mapping software.
I lived in Tokyo before Google Maps, and the answer was: printed maps. Every business card had a map on the back, every ad for an event had a map, every personal invitation had a hand-drawn map. But yeah, if you were going somewhere as a group, you'd meet at a known point (outside train station etc) and then head over together.
If you were roughing it on your own and only had the address, things got more interesting. Train stations always had detailed maps of major landmarks, so finding those was not an issue. If you were looking for something too small to be covered (say, a restaurant), you'd head to the chōme and then start winnowing down. Police boxes (koban) always had detailed neighborhood maps bolted to a wall nearby listing every single business and family by name, albeit usually in handwritten Japanese only, and you could ask the cops for directions too.
The final boss was the non-linear numbering house scheme though. Some friends and I once spent a fruitless hour searching for the HR Giger bar in Tokyo, which we knew was at X-Y-Z, but only managed to find X-Y-(Z+1) and X-Y-(Z-1).
Yeah, that's going to come down to personal preference. I find using a Mac to be a much more productive / enjoyable experience, especially for creative work. There are apps to address all of those software issues (having to install noTunes is kind of annoying for sure). And I will say, I prefer my OS to _not_ jam ads and tracking down my throat.
There you go. That has always been their strong point, everything else is secondary, including their own development tools. MacOS Developers have to hoop through multiple hoops periodically, and some will tell you they're very intuitive hoops but you're using them wrong(TM).
It's explicit, but it doesn't actually enforce the need to handle it. We've had this crop up in our code base before in accidental sneaky ways, esp. when it comes to named returns and just the sheer quantity of if err != nil checks.
For example:
err := doSomething()
if err != nil {
return nil, err
}
err = doSomethingElse()
if err != nil {
return nil, err
}
// Oops unhandled
err = doSomethingElseEntirely()
// A bunch of other stuff..
return nil, nil
Would much prefer "Either" with pattern matching, or something else that actually forces you to do something.
I mean the title says fastest camera drone, which that is decidedly not. Not to say that it's a necessarily accurate title, as other commenters have pointed out.
Thanks for the writeup!
