> After I left CaliExpress, I found myself driving to the closest McDonald’s, where I ordered another cheeseburger prepared by other humans. It was smaller, and the ingredients were clearly cheaper, but I found myself savoring the well-honed flavors of this drive-through classic.
I wonder if the author eats at McDonald's regularly or just reserves her visits after eating at automated fast food vendors she's reviewing.
In all seriousness, these kinds of articles fetishize human workers and read more like activist pieces arguing against tech. The tech journalist that hates tech is a phenomenon I noticed a while ago. I wrote about this before but here are 5 of the latest articles from a nyt tech journalist
There’s Nothing to Like in Facebook’s Plans to Hook Our Kids
The Maps That Steer Us Wrong
Apple’s Illusion of Privacy Is Getting Harder to Sell
Why Tesla’s ‘Beta Testing’ Puts the Public at Risk
The Assault on Our Privacy Is Being Conducted in Private
The articles can be summarized as Facebook bad, digital maps bad, Apple bad, Tesla bad and big-tech bad
What other field has journalists covering it that absolutely hate everything about it? Why bother at this point? That's why YouTube personalities like mkbhd and Doug demuro are so popular because they honestly love the things they're reporting on. Who wants to read the umpteenth article about how meta is selling our data?
