A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

I'm very happy I started hedging early in my career by saving a very large fraction of my income. Working in tech has been excellent for me, but there's never been any guarantee that this will last forever. At that point, I will probably be ready to live off my savings, should that become necessary. Then it doesn't really matter what any market looks like - I will be able to do whatever I feel like during the days.
