What a retarded rhetoric. They're F'ing engineers not marketeers. Of course they're going to need a good marketing department. It has nothing to do with product. You can package garbage and sell it to people provided you do the 'right' things. Your point proves absolutely nothing. However, it does create a lot of confusion, specially in your own damn mind.

What a dumb son of a b, itch.

You make a good point, except that it's based on about 5% of important considerations. So, overall it sounds great but it's absolute garbage. It's so misleading to people with poor critical thinking skills which is the majority. Thanks for making our world a better place.

Dumbest thing I've ever heard.

After genX (the slackers) came genY (the 'why bother') note: I'm genXer. It was just a joke, don't vote me down.

Here is my gift to you. I fail to see the relevancy of your point. Methinks I musts be a gifted.

Dream on!

Sure, kick them while they're down. You're comparing against a bullshit list. As if those were the major issues that they're (and all the rest of us) are facing. Please put some thought into your posts.

They have a right to complain. They inherited a more challenging (i.e. fucked up) world. I think that given time they will come through in some way though. Same thing happen with genx, we're the 'slacker generation' the Ms are the 'whining generation' so be it.

I like this post. A lot. I wish more people could see this. I think I had 'seen' this, but was never able to articulate it.

Do you know where do you buy those? I was thinking Silicon Valley might have a sale.

Stats don't matter at all. It's all bullshit to confuse people. All you have to do is follow the money.

Bullshit! I make more now than I ever did before, and can now only afford a lot less than before.

I think there's a lot of truth to that. However, like you said there's a lot of complexity. But that's not even the whole story, what about wealth disparity. Right now automation is creating unemployment, and the ones that benefit from that are very few, the rest of society get screwed. As far as I know there aren't any real alternatives to those who lost their jobs. What I don't know is who's role is it to save those people. Is it the market? the government? I just don't know enough. Or should we just let them starve to death or live lives in poverty.

So what?! That's besides the point. It's only one point, which itself is dubious out of larger complexity. I would put my bet on the robber barons and their minions (politicians.)
