How can you have hacker culture at any major tech companies when the entire management structure is nothing but business brains?

How many CEOs of prominent tech companies right now even use technology? Like REALLY use it.

Hacker culture is still around, not so sure about startups though.

We still have TCP. We still have Linux. We still have gcc, Debian, Fedora, Gentoo and more. Now, that last mile connection is still looking dicey; if a lockdown is applied, it will be applied there.

This is a bit flippant, but maybe hacker/startup culture just moved from being applied to tech to being applied to politics? It seems like the technofeudalism promoted by some could apply a similar ethos.

Hacker culture and startup culture are two entirely different things, with entirely different worldviews. The overlap in the Venn diagram isn't as large as many think.
