Sure, I'm in much the same boat. I did my last programming in COBOL in the 1980s, and it wasn't even the main part of my job. I've made no effort to keep my knowledge current. I'm simply not a techie, if ever I was.

But reading Hacker News is always interesting, so here I am.

Plain corporate propaganda. Sorry, no. The harder you work, the harder you're expected to work.

Wisdom says, work hard enough to earn your wage, but remember everything that matters in life happens after hours.

  Location: Seattle, USA.
  Remote: Sure, and for a lower wage.
  Willing to relocate: Probably not.
  Technologies: None. I'm an office flunky mostly, but I'm good at it. It's actually the only thing I'm good at.

Uh, that's me. I didn't know it was clickable until reading these comments.

It is paranoid of me to envision conversations planning this, a conspiracy amongst corporations? I don't remember ever seeing prices rise so steadily, so quickly (and I am old).

Not at all tech-oriented. It's just me — a cranky, anti-social old man — and my opinions, about old movies, public transit, news, politics, my mom who gets on my nerves, and long-ago memories of sex, drugs, and rock'n'roll.
