It was good when it was new and growing and adding to innovation. Once the bean counters figured out the grey beards' magic it got corrupted.

I grew up with stories of kids my age literally changing the world with new technologies and standards for the tech world. All the way into college, those people were innovating and developing things and having ethical back bones.

We were a generation of Nikola Teslas, but we didnt see the Edisons that were hiding in the wings.
