'Silicon Valley's only contrarian': Amjad Masad on the cost of dissent in tech

Amjad is a contrarian that is experiencing a shift in the overton window that hasn't caught up with Silicon Valley yet, which is why VCs and HN disavowed and abandoned him years ago.

Well it turns out that Replit is making hundreds of millions and is worth $3B - $9B and this looks extremely undervalued.
