Whoa! I didn't realize that market forces now excluded stuff that you obviously don't like. If the market didn't want us to have "brainless middle managers," as you'd apparently characterize a wide swath of our colleagues, then those people would already have been efficiency'd out. Just like, if people who don't look like you weren't lining up to be involved in hackathons and groups that consist of people who don't look like you, those events wouldn't exist. People pay for it, whether you like it or approve of it or not. Behold, the market works!
