A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I recently saw someone suggest that America was just three corporations in a trenchcoat; so maybe it's actually nine smaller corporations, in groups of three, each group in their own trenchcoat, and then those three groups get together in an even bigger trenchcoat 🤔🧥

It's funny to me the lack of pharma, investing, oil, and defense contractors, in this list.
