i'm starting to consider "this patreon thing" as part of my "silicon valley doesn't scale" thought cloud: https://blag.esotericsystems.at/articles/silicon-valley-does-not-scale/

back in 2014 i didn't have that kind of view, so i don't talk about the finance sector.

there's that thing where technologists love to claim their not political.
but in doing so, they effectively subscribe to their bosses' or VCs' or investors' poliitics.

i'm fairly certain the finance sector won't see the kind of disruption "blue collar" industries have.
