I was a private chain developer at the height of the hype. I was always ready to debate critical serior developers because we thought they were stuck in their old ways, until I didn't believe in it anymore and asked for a transfer. Have you ever been "accused" of that, and if so, how did you deal with it?

For me, the breaking point was when we worked with a logistics company that generated so much data that they came with 4 letter acronyms for literally everything and still had terrabytes per hour. Their performance requirements rivaled that of credit card companies. Their national lead architect know exactly what he was talking about. After half an hour one-on-one, he said, "It's a nice poc, but this will most likely be our downfall"

Recently, I heard that a distant family member of mine (with a pre-existing mental health disorder) violently stabs/cuts herself and/or others out of fear for her abuser coming after her. It's almost as if she lives on a loop and if anything breaks that loop or when she's away from her parents for more than 2 hours all hell breaks loose.

I'm curious about your views on situations like that. Do you believe that severe cases like hers are still able to recover (given that her mental age has stagnated) or is this a life long struggle/suffering (if euthanasia is not a legal option)?
