Specifically, the AC who claims that all job posts are works of fiction and that Soggy Jobs is a fraud.
It is specifically for people like him that I built it. I want to facilitate the employment of those who find it difficult to find work.
However, I am forced to concede that I'm stymied by this particular AC. I expect he has some manner of mental illness whose paranoia leads him to be completely convinced that _nobody_ actually works as a coder.
The booming Portland economy is centered around the Pearl District and its Downtown. Locate your startup there and you'll get VC like there's no tomorrow.
But you won't hire any coders.
Have you any advice as to how I can help him? Help me out here, I'm begging you!

"You have insight. You know you need help. That's half the battle." -- Dr. M., at the end of our first fifty-minute hour.
A significant problem with the treatment of both addiction and mentally illness is that it is quite common for the patient to not be consciously aware that they have a problem. In both cases they patients cling to their delusions so tightly that they give their lives rather than accept relief from those who offer it.
In the case specifically of Schizophrenia, this was determined to be due to injury that the disease does to a structure in the brain that gives us insight. One of the very worst problems with Schizophrenia is that, if left untreated it causes physical damage to the brain that is irreversible. This can be seen from CT scans of brains, as well as autopsies - the surface of the brain shrinks away from the skull.
I write so much about my own Madness in the hope that some of the uninsightful will see themselves in my essays and so seek treatment.
But many never read my writing or the writing of any other mentally ill folk, because as _I_ actually said to a friend when my disastrous course _could_ have been reversed, "Shrinks or for crazy people, and I'm not crazy".
This is one of the world's greatest unsolved problems. I don't expect you to supply a solution.
