had a friend describe it to me today as "burnout in disguise" and... yeah that's fair

@CodingItWrong I actually haven't done any lurking since the Elon exodus, I think some memetic thing is going on where all the IT people are so collectively burnt out we're dreaming of primitive life again lol

the tech worker urge to just say fuck it all and go completely off the grid and doing gardening or baking or some shit
