Why are people so stupid, lol. Oh wait life is literally marketing in 2020. I don't even know if I'm alive anymore. Do me a favor and check my seo and engagement.
It's like every issue is just privileged assholes complaining that the way they raped Earth and lives didn't work out for their good.
Dude. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but it's 2023 now :(
Shit. Are we still on lockdown?
The article is literally about the problem of ownership being too concentrated and wealth overruling people with knowledge of businesses. "Tech" here doesn't mean technology it means the big tech companies.
Somehow people haven't been convinced that just because a phone or computer is inserted it's a totally different thing. Crypto is just money with extra steps and a digital device, ride sharing is just splitting a cab, streaming is just cable split into a few pieces. Products barely changed, just shiny new conmen out front pushing the products.
Tech / innovation for its own sake has been an issue for as long as I can remember (back to the 80s) and I wouldn't be surprised if it dates back to the first stone tools. So you end up with a mix of useful, helpful innovations and idiotic ones at any given time. Tech nerds like me tend to try to find ways to apply what we know whether it helps or not...
Teslas are the worst cars on the road. Usually driven by assholes.
Worst cars on the road? Care to elaborate on that a bit since it's quite bold claim
Maybe not the worst on the road, but apparently pretty close.
Fair enough! Doesn't exactly prove his claim but atleast there's a kernel of truth there.
