I assume the author is talking about the US.
Genuine question: How does the software industry look in more non-capitalist countries? Is it flourishing without these issues. I bet their equivalent of Apple Maps was perfect on first release!
The software industry has issues but I am sure the author has a causal link from capitalism to these issues coming up in a second edition of this post that is thoruoughly researched!
(Edit: any snark is accidental!)
- Gigachad 4y agoWasn’t the Apple Maps software pretty much correct on day one but they had a data issue for some areas?
- cscurmudgeon 4y agoYep, but that is all capitalism's fault! And we should change over to another economic system where their equivalent didn't even have data issues on day one.
- latency-guy2 4y agoIt is hilarious, seeing as capitalism is firmly expected to meet the ever changing and increasing needs of the luddites that sit opposite of it. But capitalists can't make the same demands of it's enemies. What a shame.
