I dunno, I disagree. I got into this game specifically because of the ability to work flexible, remote, and part time hours. Does it limit who I can work for? Sure. Has it mattered? Not really. 16 years in I'm earning a very comfortable middle class income working 24h per week, and the most I ever did was FT for six months, and 80% time for a year and a half. Most of my career has been 60-75% time.

In terms of work hours, tech is awesome. Some work full time at nights, many get flexible hours. Hourly rates are excellent. Some might say WFH is hard; but at least we get such jobs. The downside is you don't really shut off. A problem may take days or weeks of thinking to solve. You might be home but still spaced out, thinking of work, and I doubt everyone on HN browses tech stuff only during work hours.

It depends, sure. What I meant was “if you want to build a great carrier”
