Would be nice to have a stream on the regeneration of meaning in tech work
The situation:
In tech it is mostly Bullshit work that gets paid (patching shitty techn or building new shitty tech). Meanwhile we get situations like this: https://www.propublica.org/article/the-worlds-email-encryption-software-relies-on-one-guy-who-is-going-broke. @matthias can wax on about this :))
Also: Lots of discontent misalignment in tech between the values of the workers and the incentives of their employers.
@MariaEuler I know you posted something about this somewhere but cannot remember where?
I feel like @johncoate could also provide some historical context on this…
