Please don't use HN this way. You're more than welcome to make substantive comments, but pouring vitriol in response to something annoying harms the discourse here. We all have the temptation, but it's important to resist it. Otherwise—long experience shows—the community becomes toxic.

Labeling my comment as vitriol is a pretty insubstantial exaggeration. For all either one of us knows, the author has not given any thought to how their knee-jerk blog post will affect them years from now, when they've tired of playing with their pokemons and need to figure out how to pay their bills again. With any luck, my comment will induce a moment of self-reflection and allow them to consider whether their short lived catharsis from publicly humblebragging about quitting a high-paying, 100% remote job with stock options will negatively affect them in the future.
