Well put.
Although, I'd say this view, much as I share it, makes it harder to find companies to work for. Especially in a tougher job market like right now.
I'll do conversational technical interviews all day. Leet code and 6 interviews unrelated to the job, hell no.
It's cynical, but once you've been through the meat grinder with layoffs, obsessive VC overgrowth and unfulfilled promises, I don't see another way so get to where I want to be financially without either letting go and becoming a hermit or as you say "enter the capital class".
