I think in some cases it is far more than a marginal increase. I make just $120k at one of my jobs but I could make $400k+ at a job for a company far less ethical. Hell, a guy I know hit $700k one year at Ye Olde Meta (that did include exercising options though).

The allure of being able to retire early is nice. But instead of seeking high paying jobs I just mix and match multiple low paying ones from smaller companies and achieve roughly the same thing with less stress.

His Honey videos are hopefully going down in history as one of the greatest fraud discoveries.

When I started watching them (and he isn't even done yet), I expected it to be bad because of PayPal. It is...so. much. worse.

Absolutely vile practices and I look forward to lawsuits from all angles against them.

About 20 years ago when I was heavy into Christianity I donated everything I had and then some (well into debt...) thinking that I would somehow be rewarded by god.

Well, guess what, nothing.

Mentors and pastors said I needed to pray more and read the Bible more and seek guidance more. I peaked at attending church three times a week and bible studies 1-2 times a week.

Still nothing.

Long story short, fuck religion, I left and never looked back. I'm 1000% happier, less depressed, and continue to be reasonably generous.

Not defending one way or the other, but the existence of a Claude rules file doesn't really mean much?

Half my jobs have them in every single repo, because AI use is encouraged for productivity.

What isn't acceptable is just letting the produced code be merged in without understanding, reviewing, and testing.
