aka, "I don't have your perspective, so here's an outsider's point of view." Don't be so confrontational about it. OP wasn't confrontational, merely pointing out what seems to be a terrifying part of your culture from the outside. The fact that avoiding burnout is a regular topic on HN is very telling.

You don't honestly believe that burnout is a natural part of working, do you?

I think it's systemic of not having a plan in place to appropriately deal with a creative job.

And my point which was missed was that making broad generalizations about an entire industry with zero personal experience is irrational. I don't tell lawyers their culture is shit because it's not a single culture, it all depends on the industry, the individuals involved, internal structure and more. But sure, let's take an entire profession and just make blanket generalizations about it!
