  Who is better off: (1) A MAMAA employee who approaches their job with religious-like zeal, pouring their heart and soul into extended workweeks to feed the gaping maw of Big Tech, or (2) a 9-5 software engineer working at a company nobody's heard of, on projects they don't personally care about, leaving actual time, energy, and creativity for people, projects, and other things that they do care about?
