There is a prevailing "tech can do no wrong" attitude in the tech community, and it absolutely needs to be challenged hard.

  > There is a prevailing "tech can do no wrong" attitude in the tech community Is there? I see the opposite in communities including the one we're on. The anti-big-web-company torches seem brightest within compared to the more accepting yet non-ignorant outside.

    I think it's not quite "tech can do no wrong", but "all problems can be solved with tech" is definitely prevalent. I guess it's because we're all tech guys here and "if you only have a hammer...".

      Yeah, that's a better way of putting it. Way too many people in tech are completely blinded to its limitations and inherent problems.

      But you need to use valid examples which the Yelp one is not. Yelp is terrible so not high on the search results like it should be. But then do a product search and Amazon a top result returned even though Amazon banned any company on their market place from selling a bunch of Google products. It is just Yelp sour grapes. If going to accuse Google think you might use a valid example.
