A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

When we only have white cishet billionaires, we can abolish money.

Don't forget about the other big players! Jensen Hwang, Lisa Su, Lip-Bu Tan, Satya Nadella, plus the memory cartel (Samsung, SK Hynix, etc.)

This particular war is a class war.

Sorry, forgot about a few. Sam Altman, Sundar Pichai... Honestly, it'd probably be easier to list the white cishet billionaires in tech than it would be to list the exceptions. There's tons of them outside of tech, probably the majority tbh, but within tech it's far too diverse.

Without the carrot there’s only the stick…
