As someone who has worked for numerous chaotic software companies over the years and had a couple rounds of burnout:

You can try the quiet quitting thing, combined with things like meditation and distancing yourself from outcomes (e.g. stoic thinking around realizing what you control and don’t control). That might keep you going for a while.

But I’ve personally found that ultimately there is no substitute for quitting a toxic job and taking real time off (at least 3 weeks). Your body and mind have experienced trauma and need rest.

Best of luck, friendo

Non-competes have always seemed dubious at best. And even where they do exist, they have expiration dates.

I feel like we'll see the same thing with AI soon: people in denial about its capabilities and impacts

And, while it's not a video game, reading the Pathfinder 2e core rulebook

It's almost comically bad

I can see why they'd avoid sharing. It was... this song 😬:

On a related note, have you heard of the Three Moves Ahead podcast? It seems like it'd be right up your alley: it's entirely focused on strategy games
