Hi again, friends!
Every industry has its pros and cons, that goes without saying. But wouldn’t it be nice if you could just wave a magic wand and solve the most glaring of your industry’s problems?
Well, I’m giving you one! My answer is, I would fix the problem of representation. (Startups by women not being funded, the lack of women and people of color in leadership roles, etc. Basically this entire article.)
How about you, my fellow Tech friends? What would you do if you were Hermione Granger for just five minutes?
But seriously .. along the lines of your post... maybe a lessening of this ridiculous consume, consume, consume reality we find ourselves in. New hot sh*t phones every six months? I mean, don't get me wrong, I'm a tech-head, and I love learning about new ideas. But I really think this completely whacked insanity of "gotta, gotta, gotta get the new (insert today's hot 'n shiny gizmo) that just gets into an ever accelerating cycle is beyond damaging to us as a people.
I doubt Neanderthals were upgrading every year from "smashing rock 2000" to the new updated and completely awesome "smashing rock pro plus ultra zoooooom 20+++++"
We can, and simply should for finances sake get much more from purchases, especially significant ones like a $1000 or higher cell phone. To justify that price you should without question get 5+ years use from it;.
