    I remember when companies hung on to old technology for dear life as long as they possibly could. I’m pretty sure they were still making money then. Everyone hopping on these bandwagons and throwing tons of money at it for FOMO are bonkers, this stuff has barely been tested yet as far as productivity, effect on workers, mental health issues, the list goes on… but I guess that’s all fine.

World would be better place if people with no long-term planning capability couldnt get any real influence over anything.
