Where the design community meets.

Yes, I agree, & I don't have a problem with the message. I'm more or less fascinated by how this community has changed over time & what it expects from its leaders.
When I say "go to war" I'm speaking of the fact that there was a lot more at stake in early days with regards to standards and browser wars and Flash and the best practices overall. The battles have been mostly won that younger designers enjoy today.

No one ever had to “go to war” over this stuff. Also, the whole life-is-work mentality is relatively new, at least in widespread expectation, in this industry. Driven by Silicon Valley startup culture. Work-life balance has never been more widely discouraged than now. If anything, Dann’s advice serves to return to healthier working habits in the web industry past.
