what the author doesn't say - is being ambitious at what ? ambitious at making useless software ? useless hardware ?
in tech we like to overwork on nonsense problems ie working on problems that change or are non permanent. literally if 98% of the software went away today it won't be missed, just like shit that came before.
if people listened to Jeff Bezos - who said - focus on things that don't change - you will realize - you can live your life - without overworking. because guess what - if you don't do something today, the problem Will exist tomorrow & the day after.
certain problems never get fully solved, just tiny bits of progress.
but I guess zero sum thinking has taken over.
