Are you a McDonald's or Amazon warehouse worker? I also know another Polish guy who's a self taught asm guy, from the days of the Amiga and he actually has a daughter. Sorry, but this just smells like jealousy. You could go work as a garbage man in NYC and make a shit ton of money, or you could sit in an air conditioned office making that much money.John Carmack is mentally fucked up (read his twitter long enough and you'll see), and your Polish friend probably is too. Computer people being weirdo deviants isn't new - it's a proud tradition stretching all the way back to Alan Turing. Hell, Xerox and IBM were both troon-friendly as far back as the 1980s.
There is no distinction. If you work in tech, you're fucked up. This has always been the case. The only difference is how adept you are at mitigating the effects and/or hiding it.
