      I work very hard at an established company. I know many people in the industry who work at established companies who also work their tails off. This characterization of people who work at established companies as "not working hard" simply isn't accurate.https://twitter.com/paulg/status/1383921221075542016 …

      If you don't want to work too hard, or are uncomfortable with rapid change, you might be happier working for an established company. And frankly startups will also be happier if you do.

          Reminds me of this gem: https://www.amazon.com/Art-Being-Right-Arthur-Schopenhauer-ebook/dp/B00UCWDW92/ref=sr_1_2?dchild=1&keywords=schopenhauer+right&qid=1618819049&sr=8-2 … (Where basically, all statements of formal logics such as this one are applied to discussion & arguments. It is brilliant & fun)

          Hahaha... I love how's you replied with a previous post saved from over half a decade ago. Unfamiliar with the notations, yet the message is clear.
