"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

There's nothing wrong with work-life balance. But those who work more should be paid more right? If you want to take more time off, for personal reasons or to care for your child, then there's no shame in taking a pay cut to do so. Or simply moving to a job that is lower salary but more flexible. Your life doesn't have to revolve around work and money. But likewise, somebody else might want to work more, and it feels normal for them to get paid more too.
And I'm not asking us to move back to when 80 hour work weeks were the norm, I think you can still get good work-life balance with 40 hour work weeks.
