Sounds like satire to get views for his website.

[–] ook@discuss.tchncs.de 69 points 1 week ago (1 children)

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

24 y/o, 3 majors in CS, economics and another thing. Founder. The fact that it's a 30h flight. It has fuckery all around.

[–] iamericandre@lemmy.world 19 points 1 week ago (1 children)

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

[–] teft@piefed.social 16 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (3 children)

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.

I found this guy's profile and am sad to report I don't think this is satire

[–] Eq0@literature.cafe 40 points 1 week ago (1 children)

As satire its hilarious! That’s why i don’t check author sources.

Anyone that would willingly buy into this shit has a severe lack of critical thinking skills.

That's another legacy feature I had deprecated.

Sleep deprivation leads to hallucinations like this.

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

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 19 points 1 week ago

I think we need a specific term for assholes that proudly work others to the death while taking all credit. CEO just doesn't cut it

[–] Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net 34 points 1 week ago (2 children)

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

[–] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 12 points 1 week ago (1 children)

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.

[–] Th3D3k0y@lemmy.world 11 points 1 week ago (4 children)

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"

I want to barf on this dude's face. This dude thinks he is going to be next Fuckerberg or whatever CEO is in vogue now. Only thing he is going to be a burnt out failed entrepreneur.

[–] spez@sh.itjust.works 21 points 1 week ago

But his idol, Jensen Huang, apparently also goes to bed an wakes up, implying the occurrence of sleep. Logic is difficult

[–] musubibreakfast@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Jensen Huang's optimized brain is divided into sections and spread throughout his limbs like an octopus. When one part of Jensen Huang sleeps, another part works. He's not built like us.

You can tell he doesn't have kids.
Else he'd be willing to pay a lot of money for 30 hours of uninterrupted relaxing time.

work is rest

Lmao this is a good one

[–] lka1988@sh.itjust.works 14 points 1 week ago

Fuck Linkedin and the brown-noser assclowns that post this shit.

Glad I deleted my account there.

[–] SapphironZA@sh.itjust.works 14 points 1 week ago

30 hours of uninterrupted time available for sleeping. That sounds like an excellent return.

24yo, major in computer sciences, economics and one more thing. Probably in false advertising.

This is what happens when you're sleep deprived, you mean to write 13 and write 30. Also known as "flying coach" time dilation slip.

Bonus points for the creepy privacy invasion.

I'll sleep when I'm dead

...from self-abusive sleep deprivation probably in week or two

Some people do have unlimited energy. Was watching a car show where this dude fabs up amazing shit on his own, and he only sleeps 3 hours a day, says thats all he needs amd he just wakes up and goes to play in his garage.

Some people just lucky. Then there's me, not old or out of shape, can sleep 13 hours easy and not have any energy, thyroid tested fine, im literally just a low energy person most of the time. Sucks.

Satire becomes the new way to roll a business. We've reached a point where this kind of post with its obviously satirical framing could as well come from an actual founder dude who just craves for maximum attention with nothing to show for it and just trying to go from there. At this point it doesn't matter anymore if it's satirical or not as long as it gets the clicks. Clicks turn into dollars at some point.

Not to blame lil' Ky-Nam here, although looking at the short summary (3x Majors CS, Econ) this sounds like either the entire profile is satire or he is unseriously serious about this kind of hype business approach to just get attention and then go from there. But maybe it's just a dude.

What a time, we can't even discriminate the authentic crap from toxic crap anymore.

'Some of us are built different' isn't advice. It's just bigotry.
