I realized I didn't hate the industry or the work, I hated the people. So I got out of "real tech" and got into the tech side of the kind of industry that tech industry people seem to think is quite evil, Wall Street. And sure, I'm probably not making the world a better place but at least theres plausible deniability. When I worked in real tech it was pretty obvious that unless I adopted a very specific set of beliefs (loosely summarized as "naive tech optimism") I was making the world a worse place. I'm happy mostly not having to deal with the kind of people I had to deal with in tech.
