HackerNews中文版

大家好，我是HN（Hacker News）的长期潜水员，偶尔也会贡献一些内容。最近，我从企业/公司跳槽到了一家“高增长”的初创公司。结果发现，我们之间存在“文化不匹配”的问题。在那里工作了仅仅两周，我就感到身心俱疲，已经要求他们立即终止我的雇佣关系，这样我就可以在加州（我的家乡）申请失业救济金了。目前，我从事的是技术类非软件/硬件相关的工作，过去20年里一直如此，自从研究生毕业后就没变过。我曾多次尝试转型到“下一个闪光点”领域，但都无功而返（AR/VR/DS/ML/AI）。我甚至尝试过加入“Leetcode” FAANG（指Facebook、Amazon、Apple、Netflix、Google）的军备竞赛，最终也放弃了。我现在正在思考我下一个潜在的职业发展方向。说实话，我拥有财务保障，这得益于我的储蓄、401K账户，以及一位在大型科技公司（产品遍布每个“办公室”）担任技术职位的配偶。所以，我现在就可以“退休”，去做其他事情。但是，我想过一种有意义、有价值的、富有成效的生活，充分利用我现有的工作时间（我今年47岁，明年2月就48岁了）。儿子明年就要上大学了，我不会有任何时间压力。他的大学基金已经安排好了。之前有人建议过“80,000小时”计划，也提到了techjobsforgood（https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40325501）。我的一些核心优势是——我通常是一个很好相处的人，并且一直与我的同事和外部供应商保持着良好的关系。虽然我不是一个管理人员，但我喜欢与人一起工作。很抱歉说了这么多，但我现在正经历巨大的精神困境，HN上任何一点集体智慧都能拯救我，不仅仅是我的职业生涯，还有我的“中年危机”。我发现把这些发到HN上比“与GPT聊天”更有疗效。感谢您的阅读。

Hi HN, Long time lurker and occasional contributor here. I recently moved to a "high-growth" Startup after spending some significant time in enterprise/corporate. It turned out be a mutual "culture mis-fit" issue. I am burnt-out within the first two weeks of being there and I have asked them to terminate my employment immediately so that I can file for unemployment with state of California(my home state). Right now I am in a technical non-software/Hardware role and have been for the last 20 years since graduating from Grad-school. I tried pivoting into the "next shiny object" several times to no-avail(AR/VR/DS/ML/AI). I even tried getting into the whole "Leetcode" FAANG rat race and eventually gave up on that. I am contemplating on what my next potential career move could be. Truth be told, I have the financial security both from my savings, 401Ks and a spouse who is gainfully employed in a tech role at one of the Big-tech companies(that has a product in every "office"). So, I could just "retire" now and pursue other things. But, I want to lead a productive life , doing something meaningful and worthwhile with the time active work time I have on my hands(I am 47 will turn 48 this feb). Son will be off to college next year and won't have any time pressures. His college fund is taken care of. 80,000 hrs was suggested before. And so was techjobsforgood mentioned before (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40325501). A few of my core-strengths - I am generally a good person to be around, have always made good relationships with my peers and external vendors. So though not a people manager person, I like working with people. Sorry for the rant, but I am in huge mental turmoil and any iota of collective wisdom from HN would just save me not just my career but my "mid-life crisis" as well. I find posting this to HN much more therapeutic than to say "Chat with GPT". Thanks for reading.
