Reminds me of this Louis CK joke:

I was on an airplane and there was high-speed Internet on the airplane. That's the newest thing that I know exists. And I'm sitting on the plane and they go, open up your laptop, you can go on the Internet.

And it's fast, and I'm watching YouTube clips. It's amazing. I'm on an airplane! And then it breaks down. And they apologize, the Internet's not working. And the guy next to me goes, 'This is bullshit.' I mean, how quickly does the world owe him something that he knew existed only 10 seconds ago?"

The investors need their returns now!

Soon, all the middle class jobs will be converted to profits for the capital/data center owners, so they have to spend while they can before the economy crashes due to lack of spending.


People who say „it’s bullshit” are the ones that push the technological advance forward.

Not invariably. Some of those people are the ones who want to draw 7 red lines all perpendicular, some with green ink, some with transparent and one that looks like a kitten.

That's really not true.

No, people who say "it's bullshit" and then do something to fix the bullshit are the ones that push technology forward. Most people who say "it's bullshit" instantly when something isn't perfect for exactly what they want right now are just whingers and will never contribute anything except unconstructive criticism.

Sounds like "yes but" rather than "no" otherwise you're responding to self created straw man.
