Techbro culture and capitalism have really ruined announcements like this for me. Now, all I can think about is what happens when the company goes bankrupt or gets bought out? Or when they start moving critical functions into the premium subscription package?

In a compelling dialogue, Paul Krugman and Henry Farrell explore "weaponized interdependence" and its impact on U.S. foreign policy. Farrell expresses concern over the erosion of America’s benevolent hegemon role while examining Silicon Valley’s troubling shift to a hard-right ideology. The discussion highlights the consequences of concentrated power in tech, questioning the future of global dynamics. Discover the full conversation here: https://paulkrugman.substack.com/p/talking-with-henry-farrell. Kudos to Krugman and Farrell for this insightful piece.

Seattle is wild because along the same street you'll see a badass genderfluid person who doesnt GAF about someone making some mysogenistic comment on their outfit or appearance, and an insecure tech bro using his #Amazon badge as a yo-yo for attention.

The true dichotomy of urban life.

"It is the Way of the Education Techbro to always and forever assume that if a tech tool isn't being embraced and employed, the problem must rest with the end user. Never, ever conclude things like "this tool doesn't work very well" or "this tool is not helpful for the work that teachers actually do." So instead of trying to find out why their stuff hasn't been useful, why Zuck's repeated big bets on ed tech have failed to pay off time and again, CZI has some other ideas."

Watching the news fauning over the downturn in tech. I hate to say it but this has been a long time coming for the whole industry. Tech doesn't rule the world; they can't afford to keep offering all the amazing perks to 10000+ employees, a good chunk of which are redundant at best and money holes at worse (looking at you Google glass 2.0 team). Plus the culture is like a big nerdy frat group. #techfall #techgrumps #TechBroCulture
