i reflected for a little while on why i'm so reliably unkind about this sort of thing, and i think what it comes down to - apart from the considerable degree to which i am just a naysaying asshole by nature - is the way that i live inside an industry whose hype cycle has pretty well ensorcelled the whole species.
sure, there's bullshit everywhere. but not every class of bullshit constructs a world we wind up living inside of for decades.
