> A big piece of career advice I have for any folks that feel like they're in dead-ends or are just getting started is that, in modern society, you should be constantly expending time and energy to ensure you're in the most personally rewarding position - the world is a cruel place where the socially awkward and introverted have a constant uphill battle to not be exploited.

This was both uplifting and an apt commentary on how to survive in the modern age.

Well said.

> Oh and we're all super lucky to be in tech because in a lot of other fields there is just no way to advance yourself.

I feel like this is a pretty cynical take. Really, what's happening is that more and more jobs are becoming tech jobs. It may not be as glamorous as going to stand-ups each morning, but there's plenty of opportunity out there and we're just in an awkward transition period where societies are trying to play catch-up with, historically-speaking, a lot of changes in a short amount of time.

Whether that transition ends with peace or chaos is going to depend on how easy the transition is made for everyone
