    In disciplines like software engineering, constantly improving oneself and being in a state of continuous learning is an inevitable process. Even if you don’t put in extra effort and just try to do your job, you have to learn a new concept or technology. If you do put in the extra effort, you become someone who does their job better. Since graduating from undergraduate studies (which marks exactly one year as I write this post), putting in extra effort has been my top priority. Working more, reading more, knowing more.

    This guy sounds miserable. Devoting yourself to corpo garbage “work ethic” like that isn’t the answer to hyperconsumption.
