This is a good article. I will be honest, the Twitter link felt like a very ironic finish to the article, so much so that I chuckled. Some rat races may indeed continue, though maybe it is not all or nothing.
We wish the author well in his endeavors.
- lumost 4y agoWe may see an interesting few years for tech going forward. The path for software engineers the last 10 years was to move into the biggest company you could… and then stay there. A college grad who joined FB in 2012 would have made more money at FB than any other likely alternative including founding their own firm. The same was true for at least a dozen large firms. These big firms came with the added benefit that one didn’t have to worry that your 12 hour days of toil would lead to a layoff at the end.
- henshao 4y agoI had the same thought about the twitter link. I also find that many people decide to disconnect from the "rat race" and explore the mountains and be one with the earth...often after you're already set up from your racing days that you can afford to adventure off like that. But yes, good for him. I also like the mountains.
