One study found that being laid off ranked seventh among the most stressful life experiences — above divorce, a sudden and serious impairment of hearing or vision, or the death of a close friend. Experts advise that it takes, on average, two years to recover from the psychological trauma of losing a job.

For healthy employees without pre-existing health conditions, the odds of developing a new health condition rise by 83% in the first 15 to 18 months after a layoff, with the most common conditions being stress-related illnesses, including hypertension, heart disease, and arthritis. The psychological and financial pressure of being laid off can increase the risk of suicide by 1.3 to 3 times. Displaced workers have twice the risk of developing depression, four times the risk of substance abuse, and six times the risk of committing violent acts including partner and child abuse. The stress induced by a layoff can even impair fetal development.

10 years ago I was put at risk of redundancy with the rest of my team. I was ultimately fortunate to keep my job and was told later I was never at risk, they just had to include the whole team for some HR reason. However due to the stress at the time both my mental health and physical health (IBS) hasn't been the same since.

I think you shouldn't use autotool as a name. There is better known autotool https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Autotools

Yeah, I'll likely update the name later. It doesn't currently really matter though - and it's really difficult to come up with a name for this that isn't lame sounding.

TIL there are a lot of people whose keeps their browser closed

I use next script. It creates temporarily dir for firefox, uses it as a profile dir and remove after firefox closed.

   #!/bin/sh -e
   DIR="${XDG_CACHE_HOME:-$HOME/.cache}"
   mkdir -p -- "$DIR"
   TEMP="$(mktemp -d -- "$DIR/firefox-XXXXXX")"
   trap "rm -rf -- '$TEMP'" INT TERM EXIT
   wget 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pyllyukko/user.js/master/user.js' -O "$TEMP/user.js"
   firefox -profile "$TEMP" -no-remote "$@"

It also uses very hardened options from https://github.com/pyllyukko/user.js

It is not my invention, but I lost a link to blog post
