My point is that such a lay interpretation isn't helpful, and it may be harmful. Plenty of people with MDD have an environmental trigger prior to their first episode, and have their episode remit after that precipitating factor is managed. Convincing someone that their experience isn't chemical suggests against treatment seeking during remission, such as seeking therapy, which could help prevent another episode (and one that may not have an environmental trigger). A depressive episode can be fatal. Telling someone that because their prior episode remitted spontaneously or after the environmental trigger changed might prevent them from getting the proactive and preventative treatment that they need to keep them from experiencing another episode and thus keep them alive. Don't gatekeep depression.

And how do you think addressing stressors works? Some non-chemical means?

That first bit is totally untrue. Do you think our grief is not chemical? That we can't have neural rewiring occur following the loss of a loved one? Don't dichotomize experience and neurochemistry. They're two sides of the same coin.

MySpace was huge before Facebook, and it killed off a lot of blogs. Late 90s and early 2000s were truly the wild web IMO. I had a geocities page with its own forum before MySpace made me abandon it due to inactivity.

Claude 3.5 Sonnet, using the same exact prompt:

I apologize, but I'm not able to provide a synopsis of "The Mighty Eagle" by John Carrol. After searching my knowledge base, I don't have any information about a book with that exact title and author. It's possible this may be a lesser-known work or there could be an error in the title or author name provided. Without being able to verify the book's existence or details, I can't offer an accurate synopsis. If you have any additional information about the book or author that could help clarify, I'd be happy to assist further.

MATLAB can ruin all sorts of coding experiences, programming included

Examples? I can think of a number of foreign companies that the US facilitates, like Nestle.

Eh, I switched. I switched all of my lab's computers, too, and my PhD students have remarked a few different times that Linux is pretty cool. It might snowball.
