A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

i find it fascinating how many rubes seem to idolize self aggrandizers - there are really millions of people in the world who think each of [Elon Musk, Kanye West, Donald Trump, many more] are 'truly geniuses' - largely because they keep telling people that they are geniuses (and pay people to repeat the myth).
Maybe I should be more self aggrandizing...
