> I just wonder what makes us (in the broad use of "us" here, to mean anyone who builds technology for a living) that we get tasked with fixing the world? Because: -- we are the ones who have the intellectual abilities to do it, -- we are the ones who received an education allowing us to do it, -- our companies and a fair number of us pretend to do it and yell it everywhere, -- an insane amount of money is poured in companies and projects we work for, and most of these companies and projects are either useless or harmful. This set makes a big difference with people who are just in charge of making the world go round day after day, and who just do it well. Those do not disappoint. Those do not deceive.
