Two weeks ago I heard a colleague say: "I'm a scrum master in a waterfall project". That was my last week at that IT consulting company and really confirmed my choice to switch to a career with more purpose.

Not just the US. There's currently only a single country that seems serious about reducing climate change, which is China (based purely on what they're saying). And looking at history, we always tend to only react when things impa

I think a pretty good example of why this isn't work is visible in the LinkedIn inbox of nearly every software engineer (and probably other specialized people). People with an HR degree become tech recruiters and they often really suck
