Everything and Nothing Is a Tech Company Now
- rvz 7y agoIf the local grocery store or the local farmer was using the following 2010s tech buzzwords of the decade like AWS, Docker, Kubernetes, Tensorflow, AI, Blockchain, TPUs, Quantum Neural Turing Machines, etc in their pitch to investors to scale their local shop to 100 million customers in a month, then they could sort of qualify as a 'tech company' in the 2020s and raise their series G. /s Everyone and their camels is somehow now working for a 'Tech company' because they are using someone else's tech and immediately think they can scale like Facebook or Google. When the cloud waiter/waitress gives you the final balance sheet for your AWS/GCP/AZ kubernetes buffet, you will be so disappointed to call yourself a 'tech company' only for you to kamikaze your startup shop into the ground.
