> I've also been having trouble articulating why I stopped GAF about computing and technology. Whenever I go for a job interview, a question is "what tech do you think is interesting or exciting right now?" and I think it's a dumb question. I actually don't GAF about kubernetes or microservices or serverless or FaaS or whatever you think is cool this year.

God I hate this. When I first got out of uni it didn't strike me as weird, but now I realize I could honestly give two shits about kubernetes or any of that

I'll think about kubernetes if they want me to, provided they pull out the fucking checkbook

It's a narrative. This idea of really caring about technology, to the point of doing a bunch of volunteer work and making a lifestyle out of it. That narrative proliferates here
