This is so out of touch, even for HN, that I for a brief moment considered whether I had experienced some kind of traumatic brain injury or stroke.

Wait til they hear about the purpose of life.

I sure hope not, as I’m vaccinated.

On the other hand, maybe it’s unvaccinated younger people getting COVID complications.

Or something else.

There’s so little info it’s hard to say anything meaningful. It’s surprising to me that the available data are so lacking in specificity that all we can say is “too many people are dying” but not what they are dying from.

There are plenty of people that are passionate about their work. Just because it’s programming computers and not curing cancer doesn’t change this. It also doesn’t mean they don’t lead full lives. It doesn’t mean they are being taken advantage of.

In my experience people that claim otherwise are just getting less out of work than they could. Kind of a waste of 40 hours a week.

(Sure, bad situations exist etc. etc. but that’s just true of everything.)
