VPs and PMs focused on updating things that are “concrete” to them like buttons, and logos soak up engineering agency. Aggregate engineering and customer experience are cost centers. Our management culture is irreparably broken. Somehow the

Exactly. There’s no law forcing me me to chip into healthcare. Tacit admission in the US I don’t have to care any other meat bag exists; why should I care what they have to say?

Train citizens to drive robot non-lethal surveillance drones, do paperwork, cut funding for rage prone meat bag policing. Maintain minimum required force of trigger happies for all the shooting scenarios. Our secular society isn’t anymore
