During the PC era it was making big technology accessible and it had a spectacular success on Wall Street due to this big shift. I believe no other Silicon Valley development has been as focused on actual tools for humans to use. We are now left with Wall Street expectations that are out of scale for the usefulness of the technology being developed. The technology seems to be developed with a focus on being a service with the widest possible addressable market and the lowest possible cost per click. Most of the world's problems don't fit those parameters. Luckily most tech news is white noise. There is a lot of good work and it doesn't get much oxygen. The recent thread on the paper "What goes around comes around and around" is a good window on how to do good work. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40846883 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40846883
