I mean working somewhere like Qualcomm or Microsoft when you care about FOSS, democracy, and the public commons, or a weapons manufacturer for a military that invades other countries and kills innocent people in their homes.

    By doing the absolute minimum or worse without getting fired. If you can get by as a -10x dev for Microsoft you’re doing absolutely fantastic. I.e. sabotage.

    You can also try to push for change, apply for other jobs.

    The other alternative is to disassociate and sacrifice your morals or somehow justify to yourself.

    Not going to tell you what to do, keeping a well paying job when your family depends on you is totally understandable.
