Hustle culture is absolute poison. I'm absolutely unsurprised people are working themselves into ill health when 'gurus' are telling people "by all means work 7 hours a day, but the guy next to you is working 22 - who do you think will succeed..?!" We've normalised this to a point people fill their days with busywork just to feel like they're achieving. It sucks. I say this from experience. But I much prefer life with 7 and a bit hours of solid sleep, exercise, making time for a social life, and actually walking away from my desk when I'm just pushing around the cursor.
