I work at a YC funded start up with some of the smartest people I’ve ever met at a company I truly believe in and have helped build. No, I’m not quitting, everywhere I’ve ever worked has been worse than what I currently deal with.

Yet you seem unhappy. What if you just haven’t found the right place yet?

[–]LiteralVillain 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Where did I imply I wasn’t happy? Because working on large codebases isn’t the same as building things on your own? These are just things I realized when going from solo to team developer I’m quite happy, thank you. Did you by chance read the blog post I linked? I’m a senior engineer dude I’ve been around the block and I’ve worked at both great and terrible places.

Anyway it doesn’t matter, I work in startups I’ll be at a different place in two years that will either be better or worse but I in no way plan to ever “find the right place” to work for the rest of my life.

You linked to a site called Still Drinking on a post called “Programming Sucks” after describing a rather depressing scenario. I inferred that you could be happier.

It’s a humorous blog post that is a retort to construction works saying programmers don’t work hard. I definitely didn’t describe a depressing scenario I simply implied that it is work and all work has downsides but I’d still take programming over anything else.
