There was a time when this would have impressed me, a bit like learning that Facebook had one ops engineer for every ten thousand servers they had. But it just makes me sad now: we put the best minds of a generation to work and for what? Netflix is a shadow of itself. The UI is a slurry pond of whatever the algorithm decides to toss up. The content is dire. I just feel so sad about what we built.
Its not just Netflix of course. I just can't shake the feeling that we've built entirely the wrong future.

( Even though they are losing it somewhat ) > I just can't shake the feeling that we've built entirely the wrong future. The others, Microsoft, Facebook, Google, Netflix. Pretty much the whole Tech industry are exceptionally poor at it. And there is something fundamentally wrong with Tech companies. And I am not entirely sure what it is.
