Thanks for your comment. I'm pretty sick of the low effort takes on this site (read: internet in general). Every role is different. Each has its own challenges and anybody can be good or bad in a given role. Too many people trying to blame upper management, blame L1 managers, blame developers, without understanding, or even attempting to understand, the challenges they face. It doesn't just work like that. I'm 9 years into my career and became a manager 2.5 years ago. I agree entirely with you, it's just different, not better or worse. As a manager you are constantly dealing with a number of situations more varied than what you face weekly as a developer. The challenges are different. You can work harder, or work less hard, smarter or dumber...it's all up to the person and how their organization operates.
Personally, I think ICs complaining about bad Managers is acceptable. The latter have actual power and direct control over the individual’s career and life. It can be a tough job that comes with a lot of responsibility, but lots of us have faced the worst sides of this.
You meet people who like to socialize and that you get along with. They invite you to things and places and you meet more people, some of them single women. This will require stepping out of your comfort zone and perhaps finding new ways to enjoy yourself. Grow as a person and embrace the many different ways of living.
Any service can provide value, and Bitcoin does provide value: secure peer to peer transfer of money without a third party, nearly instantly. Why do you say there is zero use case? But like any service, its users decide what it's worth and sometimes that means network effects impact the value. I'm not making an argument for how much value this is or should have, but please stop saying the value is zero. It simply isn't true.
