deviance

Next thing home owners are selfish. Next thing existing is selfish. You people have a problem. Go out in nature. Breathe! Stop hating on other people

It's all downhill from here...

Very good question / topic. I don't have a good answer to contribute, but I am as curious as you are on the topic.

So very true, so few people realize it

I'm also very much interested in finding solutions to the stated problem, but have not had much luck so far

I've also been curios, for some time now, but got no concrete good examples. Good question! Hope you'll get some good answers!

I agree with the author. I've also quit my job as a software dev. early this year, after about 10 years in the industry in various companies (so I can say it's not just a local issue) Having some savings, I'm looking to reorient into something else, also technical, but more hands on - literally. Also, as an added note I think that a large part of software written today makes the world a worse place to live in (I'm thinking social platforms and cloud computing - one taking away the realness and empathy in interacting with each others and the other taking away the ownership of anything). Also, don't get me started on ads system and the crap list of apps/games/software in general that gets pushed down people's throats due to big advetising budgets. If the people working in the industry as software devs doing the above would instead use their creativity and skills in other fields of work (ie. actual science and engineering) we would have a better world. I truly loathe the software development industry in all aspects, as it unfolds today. Not the software dev. activity itself, mind you. But the current goals, players (corporations) , environments, values and trends of the industry as a whole!
