- smashah 6y ago>they will be able to make a living They can, and many have made a "living" by moving on to working on normal tech startups. Nobody needs to make a killing to make a "living".
- marshmallow_12 6y agoThe Multibillion dollar global defense industry refutes you.
- smashah 6y agoNot sure about you, but I don't concede any moral authority to "The Multibillion dollar global defense industry" so the refutation is invalid to say the least.

- smashah 6y agoWow. The industry has technological authority, but that doesn't mean it is owed a moral authority. Just how (I hope) you wouldn't give moral authority to a grooming gang just because they're super efficient in their trafficking techniques.
