After that, tech mainly became grifting and scamming for as much money as possible. Between companies that raise absurd amounts of money for a pin that is your "friend"; companies that use open source as GTM (grift-to-market) strategy in order to later just say "fuck you" to their user base and take as much VC money as possible; space companies buying a freaking ide; or the entire tech sector burning so much energy just to generate ghibli styled cat pictures - I'm done with it. It seems like there are no morals or ethics in this field at all. It's just littered with surveillance tech, severe burnouts, and simple greed from "tech bros" in order to drive super cars or go to space. And in anyway, I'm just waiting for the inevitable future where I will be "laid off" because of "AI optimizations".
So, my questions is: People who have moved away from pure tech businesses / careers, and moved to traditional fields or maybe tech adjacent careers / founded businesses in these fields - what do you do and how did you get there?
A good income is a hedonistic trap if you spend it on booze, cars, babes and parties.
