      You really cannot be 100% sure with some of these. Ken Cheng is obvious. This one, not sure. Sounds like.

          Unless he has flying to Kansas or something the flight length is complete bullshit. Looks like its 17-19 hours for west coast airports and at most 22 hours for nyc or Boston

            If he had multiple layovers he could hit 30 hours flight time. However you’re right, a nonstop flight from NYC to Saigon is only like 20 hours or so.

              Amsterdam - Rome - Perth is something like 17 hours on the long part, but the one time I did it I spent 11 hours on the Amsterdam - Rome part due to engine trouble.

              and that’s still not 30

                I flew NYC to Seoul a few times (also the reverse flight) and that one is about the same flight time. Never again will I willingly fly to the other side of the planet. Not without month long stops between each 3000 miles or so.

                  See, your problem is not having a bunch of someone else’s money to burn so that you can fly first class. Economy for 20 hours is agony thanks to the cramped seating.

                  Probably wouldn’t be so bad if we could bring back the 747 design that had a passenger lounge in the upper level.

    Sleep deprivation leads to hallucinations like this.

    I see a too early death in his 30s. it’s called karoshi - death caused by overworking.

    LOL. Bro thinks ‘If I work hard, I will succeed; effort and progress scale linearly’

    I used to work 300 hr months for years. Let me be the first to tell you that’s the most toxic thinking you can imagine

      I used to work 300 hr months for years.

      I had one of those, and then decided that if being self-employed was this, I’d rather live under a bridge.

        I will never understand purely career oriented personalities. I work so I can enjoy not working, I want to find the most efficient work to not-work ratio and be there.

        I have multiple friends that will have a one-ups competition to talk about all the overtime they worked, and I would just chime in with “If I did 14 hours of actual work this week I would be surprised”

          That’s me now. I’m working 37.5 a week til the cows come home. If I do work OT, I actually get it. Before, I just banked straight time, got rained on, riddled with black fly bites, and chased by bears.

          Wee.

            I’m this way now. I genuinely enjoy my job, but when I’m off the clock, I’m OFF. My work phone and work laptop both stay in the work backpack until my next shift.

          It’s temporarily embarrassed millionaire syndrome. Look at Alex Hormozi. Dude is the definition of faking it til he made it and he puts out stupid posts like ‘I ate Chipotle 500 times in a year because it saved me time I could be spending on making money’.

          Most of the people in this ‘subculture’ don’t realize that they are crabs in a bucket.

    bro is an econ major and yet never read Capital vol.1 which quite clearly lays out that any time spent working after reproducing the means of sustenance for the worker (in this case I guess it’s only an hour or two, if the dude is doing anything productive at all) is just surplus value for the capitalist (in this case, the venture capitalist paying this “tech founder”), which the capitalist will never reimburse to the worker.
