being paid well doesn’t automatically make you guilty of all things but lots of tech ppl really hate thinking abt the ways they participate in systems that are fucking them. eg taking lyfts then complaining abt traffic, ignoring city politics then complaining abt rent

no i don’t know enough about economics to say much about capitalism except that i think widening inequality sucks and also that i benefit immensely from existing structures, which is why i don’t go around saying shit i don’t understand just because it’s trendy

Who is giving out 250k positions to 26 year olds?

It's normal if you are an experienced Software Engineer in Bay Area. If someone started working right after undergrad, they will be making this much easily.
