I've been wondering lately if my job is #bullshit.
I've given it a lot of thought, and I think it's not directly bullshit. I'm doing stuff that's meaningful, at least in a narrow scope, both in my dayjob and my #FreeSoftware / #Gentoo work.
That said, with the arrival of all the bullshit CEOs, CTOs, all their bootlickers, wannabe bootlickers, and all the CEO/CTO/bootlicker cosplayers, the whole software industry is becoming filled with bullshit to the brim.
Even if my work is meaningful, it contributes more and more to software that's either scam in itself, used to scam people or pure unadulterated bullshit. Even if the tools used to be useful, they either gain bullshit parts or bullshit dependencies.
I hate this, and it's making me hate what I'm doing.

Blöd, wenn man einen Artikel rausbringt über den Absturz des US-Dollars, dieser aber steigt und man es in der eingefügten interaktiven Grafik sieht. #medien #bullshit #tagesschau
