I read the article, but the attributes which OP views as negative are just the general traits of hypercompetitive people.

The only way to win is by hook or by crook - that is what you learn in hypercompetitive environments.

If you can't compete you will be made redundant.

Honestly, in some aspects that is what I appreciate about the Chinese mindset - much more competitive.

I can't agree with you given candidate evaluation is arbitrary, badly targeted, and privilege centered (school/company pedigree). The latter drives ability to get exposure to disciplines and tooling and often a specific stack could be picked up easily by others with a little time/training. HR looks for safe signals and is happy to ignore good talent that doesn't check all the boxes, especially in a market like this.

Self-defeating attitude that you will regret later in life. Best of luck.

Yours is the kind of attitude that has ruined the industry. Congrats.

It's interesting seeing an example of the sociopathy the article is talking about in the wild. This account backs up basically every single stereotype about the tech industry these days. I don't agree this attitude has ruined the industry though, it's actually ruined the entire world.

Don't be surprised if the sociopathy and destruction you love so much comes back to haunt you, though. I'm sure you'd think that was great anyway.

Then go live among them? Maybe you’ll be one of the millions killed the next time they do their thing lmao.
