Luckily "a few centuries ahead" is not the setting for this article, this discussion, or the current period. I'm not sure what relevance this has, when I'm sure the 'theys' from centuries before would have quite a few things to say about the way we live today, and it would be an opinion equally irrelevant.
- sillysaurus3 9y agoThere's no such thing as "a balance that must not be disturbed," and such beliefs tend to lead people into an unfulfilling life. Throughout this thread, there is an undercurrent of "Shut up and put up with it, you have it pretty good." But everything is a balance, and the balance can swing both ways. There is huge variation between developers' paychecks. I've seen devs who can barely afford food, let alone expensive toys. And not because they're unskilled. Also, not everyone can simply go to a job and then go home. Some are forced to do remote work for medical reasons. There are valid reasons to speak up.
