If you die, your product will be the same hacky, bug-filled piece of garbage it is today. The thing you are working on will go to someone else. Within a few years, everyone will forget about you except for that junior dev who occasionally misquotes you to justify doing things the way she wants to do things. You might feel like you're changing the world, but as far as I can see the world will be pretty much the same regardless of whether you're at your desk or on a plane to Hawaii tomorrow. If you can see that this is true, and relax into it, you will stop taking everything so seriously, you'll stop reacting to people, and you'll stop putting as much pressure on yourself. People might even like you more, because you won't be as much of an uptight driven jerk as you are now. Don't worry, this post isn't meant for you! It's meant for the people who are real uptight and think they are the next phenom tech innovator. You and I are above that. Just think of how upset they all must be reading this!! Hahaha. If only they could see what we see...
It also means that there would not be people to push the human race forward. We won't have the next iPhone, next Google or next Excell :)
Agree with this! 99.9999% of people (more probably) never do anything that really matters. The only people you matter to are your family and a few friends.
Fitting from an eBay employee. That’s why we are crashing to our death
Nothing matters in the long run cause the world is going to end sometime in the future. We all are going to die one day, but till then, we live.
Yes, exactly. You will end. I will end. Your product will end. Your company will end. Everything eventually disappears.
They can call me Mohammed Li if they want, just make sure they got the bank account number right when they deposit my check ok?
Can I have your paycheck?

This is only till humans achieve immortality. Universe is still expanding so there are options
Humans will never achieve immortality. Don't waste your life on that dream.
Y’all are tiny cogs in a giant capitalist machine controlled by a few fat pigs. You are meant to break by stress or fatigue and then replaced with another cog. You are brainwashed into thinking you are doing nuclear level work by the fat pigs. In reality you are just being a cog.
