You know what the biggest problem for me is with tech and computers in general? I don't think tech companies have actually made the world better, in fact, every single day of my life I can see countless examples of how the technology gold rush has generated worse outcomes for everyone involved. I love computers, but I also have to admit most of my problems in life come from them. Companies spend hundreds of millions of dollars, developers study for years, but we still get low quality software everywhere that instead of solving issues they create more.
Life could be simpler. It used to be simpler. And I believe it will go back to be simpler when our minds get rid of the haze this technology gold rush has created, and we simply as developers and users start valuing free software, simplicity and consistency. I'm just not confident it will happen soon, though. I think we still have at least a few tech bubbles and a few thousand startups before we reach that point.
