No, that's tech bros apologia. The richest and most successful tech founders were largely from a pure technical background. Nvidia guy, Microsoft guy, Google guys, Amazon guy, Facebook guy, etc.

Tech people discovered business and finance and weaponized technology to cash out. Tech people ruined tech because they got seduced by capital

Found a coworker's reddit account and they post a lot of misogynistic, transphobic, anti-family (?) comments. What should I do? in c/askchapo@hexbear.net

you have to attend social events in office (usually 1x/2wks) if you live near one because community participation/culture building is part of the criteria you get graded on lol

so more specifically, they hate people who bring their "removed spawn" into the work offices for free meals, to show them the art inside, or to just hang out inside because work should only be for employees who get shit done

they also hate it when people go to social events in the office at like, 4:30PM and chat because it distracts them from their work

Well I didn't assume anything because I'm not judgemental like that but tbh it's not really surprising I found out they were an incel from their appearance, life outside work, coding abilities, willingness to chat, etc.

I am 100% confident it's them because so many details lined up (team, size of family, compensation, role, location, job level) including them using a specific phrase of words after a few days I sent it in our work chat

Obviously, I can't prove it's them so HR would never take action. Not only that but this guy is one of those started coding when they were 10 years old so not only are they a higher level than me, they also perform way better than me so complaining to my manager or teammates would 100% also backfire as they would 100% prefer a very high performing misogynist and transphobe than a poor performing woke sjw (me)
