Are we belitteling people now because they have intrinsic standards and pride in the quality of their work instead of blindly chasing whatever is best for their replaceable career in a hypercapitalistic environment?
- yard2010 3y agoNo. We're just being condescending pricks on the internet
- JohnL4 3y agoHuh, self-aware HN. Don't see that very often.

If it wasn't for it being some big enterprise corporate company no one would give a stuff about the blog post. Do I care someone left company X, fired from company Y? No. Do I acknowledge it's upsetting? Yes, Pack your stuff and try again. welcome to life.
