Every tech product you use came out between '00-'10. Nothing was built from 2010

I don’t know. Apple watches are pretty neat. Chip design and performance has gotten better over the last decade, although it’s harder to program in parallel than scalar. There’s been a tremendous development of web tools and frameworks, recapitulating in a way the Xserver environment.

And we don’t know what fiddly bit of academic or hacker software will turn out to be new and exciting. Or which hardware startup will deliver its promise. And ai/ml development, while not new, has become far more significant even concerning. And I assume you’re limiting the discussion to the computer biz as biotech/pharma has continued to do its thing as before.

Aside from the mba’s, it’s not the things you mention that are the problem. It’s the vc’s and their money. Selling ads, harvesting data and “social media” have consumed the talents of gobs of developers. And to what end? Complain about how the last decade has eroded privacy and increased corporate and government power and you’d have a better argument.
