im not sure the drifter-bro-waster life of idle leisure is that satisfying. Your telling me people at the top of their careers, yan le cun (deep learning etc) are not having constructive, exiting, shared, social fun? you think hans zimmer has an isolated boring life? stress in any case has more to do with context and attitude than it has to do with the profession you practice.
Re:Ask HN: When am I qualified to call myself and engineer?

industry perspective (emphasis mechanical/civil/electrical):
degree < 2 years experience: training/require supervision
degree 2 < 5 years: experienced, capable, get responsibility
degree > 5 years: lead positions/expert (if narrow focus)
so i would say degree + 2 years you can say 'engineer' (without training wheels)
