Something about our structures has deadened our response -- our very real, very human, very insightful response to the world. We are perpetuating a culture of shame and fear around caring about the very stuff that makes the biggest difference to us. Does centering this result in better work too, yes but honestly who even cares.
Imagine being PROUD to be a software engineer who cares about the human things. Imagine thinking, by default, that most of us want this. What choices could we make?
