You're right, that was coming from the statement that the father was a SV engineer. My parents didn't have any exciting projects either, in fact, children's lives depend on my mother who is a pediatric cardiologist in 3rd world country. Nevertheless, she came back from work and read the book with me before bed. I couldn't ask for more. But when people pull long shifts to get the next version of the browser that makes marginal improvements instead of spending time with friends/family/doing a hobby (essentially living, not working) and take it as a medal of honor, they are missing a lot in life. People working late hours to put the food on the table and people deliberately working late and then using it as an excuse are different. If they're the latter, please don't tell that they're having hard time balancing work/life.
