    I think the point they’re making is that the insane 80+ hour work weeks talked about in the article are, well, insane. What’s even more insane is if they are working 80+ hours a week and only making $120K-$200K, they’re actually just making $60K-$100K or less in what would be a 40 hour week, with the price of giving up your life and sanity.











  • I think you’re partially right, at least, based off my personal experiences.

    My wife who despises Windows is primarily a macOS user, but she’s fine with using Linux, assuming I’ve setup anything “technical” beforehand.

    However, I think complacency will continue to thrive for Windows-only users. I think there’s only a small vocal minority that is switching from Windows to Linux. Most of the people I work with continue to use and complain about Windows, but are too intimidated by Linux to switch. I think the average Joe doesn’t even know Linux exists.
