During my 7 years in The Bay Area - I’ve cultivated a disillusionment so bitter that I was barely able to stomach HBO’s Silicon Valley. It turns out that tears of laughter and sadness both taste salty.

So, I think it’d be disingenuous to not disclose how many bones I have to pick with the romanticization of tech and everything surrounding it. However, there are plenty of journalists (and Netflix docs) exploring how technocrats are the opposite of the saviours they may believe themselves to be, and I don’t feel a need to pile on.
