I am a software engineer and I frequently find myself admiring getting things done without requiring an internet connection. Access to information and instant communication is amazing but it’s also overwhelming. I really wouldn’t mind living in a simpler time

This theory requires them to have sufficient devs to implement a new feature. That also seems unlikely to me

I enjoyed my computer science classes and had a talent for it so I became a software engineer. For the first 5 years of my career, I loved it and it was a core part of my identity. These days, it’s just a job that pays the bills. I’m still good at it and enjoy parts of it but every job is going to have something that annoys you. These days I define myself by my hobbies and friends which are funded by my job.

It’s usually more accurate for me and requires less energy since I don’t have to lift up my finger much.

I love people cosplaying as CEOs who clearly love being called a CEO. In reality, they have a product that’s likely a clone of an existing better product and barely have any employees.

Oh no! Not the execs that copy the decisions of other execs without any regard for their employees! I for one am happy about this
