The condescending tone is likely why you’re being downvoted.

  No way, downvotes make HNers feel like they are making a difference against Amazon. Its slacktivism. People don't respond, they downvote.

    ... you say this in response to to someone responding to you and specifically describing why the downvotes are flooding in. Engineers like you give the whole profession a bad name, and we already have one. Seriously, as another poster commented I sincerely hope you can find a way to empathize. One day the engineering bubble may just burst, and you may yet find yourself in a job you hate but need. Perhaps that may help with some perspective?
