Do you read your own words?

They don't make much sense to me. If companies don't want you — how is the alternative risky? Risky in comparison to what? What other options do you have?

If none - it doesn't help wining on hn, just go for it whatever you think will make you money (if "that" _really_ "needs to change relatively soon").

Nobody cares about how you feel, not employers, nor customers, neither should you. Feelings don't bring food on the table.

The alternative is risky in that it is fairly likely to not take them where they're trying to go.
