I am bootstraping startup which will turn my long time hobby OS project into full-time job. I am almost always tired, cranky and my social life sucks. I think it is safe to say, I would be better man with normal hobby and 9-5 job.
You'd be better off but not the better man. The better man endures the pain of doing the right thing.
Why is it "doing the right thing" working at a startup that's statistically unlikely to go anywhere rather than working at an established company that's more likely to provide value to society?
