.... curious, thoughtful engineers, fully aware of the GIGO problem.
Instead, we got cocky "disrupter" marketeers and Liberatarian gamer dudes, thinking they're just all that and a bag of Doritos.
Way to go, jerkwads. You're going to "disrupt" the entire world economy into whimpering "every man for himself" chaos. And all your crypto tokens or gold buggery aren't going to save your asses when you're no longer valuable to your mercenaries or staff.

Instead of thinking of ways to solve real problems, you're all pretty much fixated on how much money your "problem solving toy" can make.
I've worked with too many of these software developers not to realize how much adolescent cynicism permutates the field.
