My somewhat contrarian take on this excellent thread: if your software offering papers over inadequacies in human systems which persist even though they’re obviously value destructive, then your software offering is *extremely valuable.* t.co/raUgJcvVaI

Zoom isn’t just a communications technology. Zoom is an opportunity to renegotiate work norms that were extremely entrenched. Github isn’t just an appealing UI over a system which is incomprehensible by mortal minds. Github smuggles in an entirely different development method.
