        "text": "Over the last decade or two tech has become dominated by the startup: a small, new business that rapidly reinvents itself in an iterative process. Once upon a time, the aim of that process was - or at least, seemed like it was - to be as useful as possible to a well-defined target group of users. These days it feels like the aim is mostly to gain as high a valuation as possible by moving from venture capital funding round to funding round, eventually making bank through an exit event.That startupification has had an interesting effect on tech communities. I\u2019m from the utopian era of the web, when we all thought we could build something to connect that world, and by doing so that we would make it more peaceful. These days, it seems like people are mostly in it to make millions of dollars - which feels like an emptier, less exciting goal, to say the least. The possibilities for social change used to seem endless; now the conversation is mostly about funding rounds or financial yield. In itself, it\u2019s boring, but it also changes who is attracted to the space: we\u2019ve gone from a loose group of weird social idealists to being overwhelmed by a bolus of the most boring possible people. The tech workforce is becoming Wall Street in hoodies, far more concerned with the performance of their RSUs than the impact they\u2019re having in the world.Of course, there are still idealists: people who believe in making the world more equal and democratic, and that technology has a part to play in making it happen. The indieweb movement remains one great example of this; there are also plenty of people working on tech for good, or mission-driven endeavors where the social impact comes first. Even in companies that are a part of this financialization of tech, there are people doing great work on inclusivity, unionization, and advocacy for social responsibility. Nonetheless, at this point, these groups are in the minority.I find that personally demotivating - it\u2019s not why I got into the space, or why I\u2019m excited about it - but it\u2019s also kind of counterproductive. If you\u2019re laser focused on helping a defined group of people, you\u2019re more likely to build a valuable company, because you\u2019re literally generating value. Conversely, if you\u2019re focused on making money as a goal rather than a means to an end, you\u2019re more likely to make shallower decisions that undermine your value. Being focused on helping your user means you\u2019re aligned with them; being primarily focused on your financial goals means you\u2019re primarily aligned with yourself. To put it another way, if the aim is to raise a round or make a bunch of money personally, you\u2019re more likely to make decisions that screw your users and undermine that goal to begin with. It\u2019s also just a selfish, stupid way to look at the world.Remember this Apple campaign?Here\u2019s to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes\u2026 the ones who see things differently \u2014 they\u2019re not fond of rules\u2026 You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can\u2019t do is ignore them because they change things\u2026 they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do.It doesn\u2019t say here\u2019s to the stockbrokers, is all I\u2019m saying.
