Right, and I see little in the news about investors taking responsibility for misreading the market and losing value, all the fault appears to rest with the CEO's for hiring aggressively and for employees not being productive enough.
In a certain sense, I think we need more journalists that cover tech, so that we can get deep dives and some real answers. What we currently have is "journalists" whose main source of news is going to events/parties, socializing with the elite and then parroting their perspectives. There is very little "hard" journalism happening here, its more "access" journalism.
