It’s so interesting seeing the whole list. Most of these guys are around the same age and were the survivors of the dot com bubble. It really speaks to how economically inefficient things have become when one relatively isolated event in a particular (and at the time narrow) industry created a distinct economic class that now just arbitrarily runs the country despite being extremely detached from it.

It feels a bit like the “paperclipping” AI doomsday scenario but instead of paperclips the tech oligarchs only understand tech and are just mindlessly trying to use all of the nations resources into more tech companies.
