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.

Capitalism works fine just turning a profit while plenty of companies die chasing growth. It's just part of it.
For some reason the software inserted the "undefined" when I tried to quote your post. Growing pains of a new site I guess.
