how do we feel about hustle culture?

i just read a tweet (which i cannot find now thankfully) framing your choices as poverty or buying into that toxic culture.

hustle culture influencers make me irrationally angry because of how they're either unaware of or ignore their overwhelming survivor's bias.

Gal, you will love Cal Newport's podcasts. He's calling a lot of this "hustling" out as just keeping busy for the sake of it without working deeply. I think you can work hard, without hustling. i've met many huge hustlers in crypto who, when it comes to get stuff done, were useless.

in tech too! the 'how to break into tech' influencer set is another great example of this archetype
