Spending the holidays processing just how betrayed I feel by the software and web industry
Basically my career has been fifteen years of hope and promise—some fulfilled, some not—followed by a decade where the industry dropped all pretence and switched to just overtly looting, manipulating, and gouging.
Being a bit angry about it is probably quite reasonable

I didnt realize other industry veterans were going though this process as well.
I recently described it as grieving to another industry veteran.
I wonder who else is feeling this way.
