Google's wind turbines don't look like the ones you might see along the US coastline. "Easy come, easy go. Anyway the wind blows"
I don't know what's crazier: this design, or the fact that Google has an employee named 'Astro Teller'

If I fixated on a woman in a manner resembling the devotion American corporations demand of workers, I would rightly be condemned as a crazy person and subjected to a restraining order. "Can't live without passion"

You're not a good programmer if you don't have 3-4 restraining order against you?
Everyone does right?

What a BS article!
To sum it up:
OP: I choose the wrong profession in life and to make myself feel better I will try to categorize anybody who actually does enjoy their job as some sort of weirdo stalker
Jackass!

Very interesting that the majority is denying 1/3 of their life doing something they deem not important.
Instead of introspection, they blame it to their boss, coworker, society. As if others are responsible to make their 8H worthwhile to their own life.
If you are thinking like that, change your job, or you will become an hollow body standing without any soul.

That's the major flaw of his argument; it's just not true by any measure. Douchebaggery supreme.

He's mistaking passion for slave labor. He was enslaved by the startup culture (which, admittedly, throws around the word "passion" as a double-secret code word for "slave"), which values 12 hour work days.
You can have intense passion for your programming career and still not be enslaved by your employer. I spend ~12 hours a day programming, but only 8 of them are for my employer. The other ~4 are for me. My hobbies, like game dev or learning a new language (which will never be used at my current job).
He has a valid point about the startup culture 12 hour work days. But that has nothing to do with programmer passion.

When you chat with friends about settling debts or splitting the bill, Facebook doesn’t want you to have to open another app like PayPal or Venmo to send them money. Bu-bye Paypal, you had a good run

I don't trust Facebook with any information. Letting them anywhere near financial information just seems foolhardy, with their cavalier attitude to privacy.

Cornerstone OnDemand, a company that sells software that helps employers recruit and retain workers, analyzed data on about 50,000 people who took its 45-minute online job assessment (which is like a thorough personality test) and then were successfully hired at a firm using its software.

well the good news I suppose is that once your biometric password is pwned it's easier to change your face with a strait razor and baseball bat than your fingerprints; which have an annoying habit of growing back after you try removing them. OTOH your fingerprint can get pwned 10 times before you reach the crisis point, but you've only got two irises and one face.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
