Burnout isn’t uncommon. I have a coworker who quit and came back to the industry after taking a bit over a year off. What gears is saying sounds like what someone burned out might say.
With that said, I kinda also feel like anyone who isn’t one of the less than 5000 SWEs allowed to work at elite AI labs may not matter at all..
yeah that’s fair and on point, it’s possible that I irrationally overupdated about how bad of a thing it is for me to be employed as an industry SWE because it was unambiguously bad for me :p
