    All these job ads make my eyes glaze over, and there's a good reason for that: The people who wrote them felt nothing. The slogans are empty. Every company's true tagline: "- turning a profit for our shareholders"

    I have never met a person who *didn't* create a startup because they wanted to "make it."
    In other words: They want to get rich. That's the whole story. The slogans are just there to conceal that fact.

    Nothing wrong with wanting money, but stating a different reason is horse shit.

      Horse shit is sometimes necessary. We all produce it when we are afraid that people will judge us. We even produce horse shit when we try to introspect, because true introspection isn't possible. You have access to your feelings, sensory input and actions, and the rest is just speculation.
