That’s the entire tech industry. I got in at the tail end of it being full of nerds who were interested in computers. Then jocks and the like found out it pays really well and now it isn’t fun anymore.
+1 to this, I feel like having a ton of money is what corrupts leadership, not necessarily their technical background.
Maybe Spez and Zuck haven’t changed much, but I feel like some others started out as relatively reasonable people who were also technically brilliant, but eventually their companies started doing shitty things and they are both aware and apparently unwilling to stop it.
Perhaps corruption in the Soviet Union is a good example of how even people from normal hard working backgrounds (i.e. not billionaires who have never worked a day in their life) can still be corrupted by power and a lack of accountability.
Yeah, it was nice as long as it lasted, now it’s all meetings and stupid “agility” (as agile as DPRK is democratic) and measurings of your percieved productivity.
I’m still looking, maybe some c/c++ old legacy system needs a geek somewhere?

Jocks != Business c suite
Too many business majors joined game dev teams
What’s a jock if it isn’t the highschool quarterback?
Non usa-ish here
Yeah man all those well known jocks like Spez and Zuckerberg sure did a number on tech.

hey mark does ju jitsu and he’s totally really good at it and all the other martial artist guys love hanging out with him
Is he actually good at it or are guys who want to hang out with a billionaire saying he’s good at it?
