If you have passion for that kind of stuff and that is your "thing", yes, of course. But most of the time, we just got rent to pay and there is not enough room for experiments with your life and career. Experiment in college, kids, while you can make mistakes - including sexy mistakes.
- exdsq 5y agoReally? I assumed if you are on HN you probably enjoy tech enough that it's not just to pay rent. Maybe I misunderstood your comment.
- pjerem 5y agoThere are a lot of people on HN that are just stuck in this industry because it pays correctly but are doing things that are far from what they expected when they started. Please don't exclude them for no reason.
- exdsq 5y agoThat's fair. I just didn't like the negative-sounding comment that it will always end up with CRUD-for-rent. If people enjoy business line apps thats awesome, it can be fun, but there are alternative roles out there too.
- pjerem 5y agoTo be fair, even if it’s off topic, finding a job in this industry is stupidly easy. Finding a job that is fulfilling, well paid, and in a great company is difficult. And I don’t even mean it’s a tragedy : I largely prefer doing CRUD-for-rent in a great company than technically fulfilling job under asshole management in some unstable startup.

- papito 5y agoNo. I am on HN to get downvotes when I point out that Peter Thiel is a douchebag.
