> Fighting for a product I believe in

See, you make it sound like fighting for your country, or for your rights, or for your freedom. But most people don't feel the same way about products. That's because they are products. They're not that important. In other words, to most people slaving away at some application or game that nobody cares about is the very definition of "mediocre life". As opposed to, say, spending time with their families or enjoying their hobbies.




Your right! I wouldn't want to diminish the value of spending time with one's family or enjoying one's hobbies. But the article doesn't mention those, just security and having a sweet paycheck.
