Exactly. We're doing this to ourselves. These horrible patterns are an HN reader's JIRA ticket next week, and they're going to happily implement them.

Are you actually complicit in this or do you really feel such a part of the "tech community" that you truly consider it as a "we"?

If the former, stop doing it right now and atone.

If the latter, I don't think that's healthy, you have nothing to do with it unless you're at a FAANG or something.
