Die Verkrempelung der Welt

Now Playing: Rush Minute by Massive Attack

I really don't like to write about tech these days. It seems so unnecessary and mundane to me. Even though it's my job and I make a living from tech, sometimes it just feels like using technology is justified by nothing other than "growth" and "innovation". And often times, there are alternatives, which are simpler, cheaper and more effective than any overengineered tech solution could ever be.

I don't have an example, but I have something that reminded me of this. A mixer from my mothers aunt, which must be over 50 years at this point. And it runs amazing. It probably will run longer than a mixer bought in 2026. Which is in it self depressing.

And that's just the state of a lot of technology. It's designed to be useless crap. Not by accident, but intentional.

Anyways, I should really read Die Verkrempelung der Welt by Gariel Yoran.
