I really can't disagree more. You generally work 8-9 hours a day. Some people even more. That takes so much time from your life. Shouldn't you try to profit from it as much as possible and try to find a job that suits you and take pleasure in and you find to some extent at least rewarding? It's like saying that you don't care about 33% of your life, as it's not what really matters and that friends and family matter more. They do, but the job matters also.

Now this is a situation you can't easily get out of, then sure, I think that kind of mindset helps you, at least for a period of time.

What? But that's impossible! Who would have thought?

qm has been a qemu (virtualization) command line tool probably for 20 years or so. The ignorance of these people inside the same field is egregious. (Oh, yes, there can be tools that are named the same in the same field, I get it)
