The issue isn’t the tech itsefl but the corporate world and its effects throughout society.
There is a lot of cool tech, but used for the most asinine products. 2015-2016 was especially terrible with the accessibility of IoT. Everyone and their mother had a Kickstarter with a common everyday item with wireless capability tacked into it.
No, my bottle doesn’t need Bluetooth.

The longer I work in tech the less I’m impressed by new tech. I don’t want the latest and greatest phone. I don’t need a crazy gaming PC. I don’t need or want a bunch of smart devices. I want a few useful things that I can manage myself, and the freedom to wake up to no alarm except the livestock.

Sometimes I wonder if it’s me getting old or if it’s tech being more and more about solutions in search of a problem. I feel like we had reached a “good enough” point for a while, but I can’t tell if the “good enough” judgement is just me getting old and stubborn.
