Except, I wasn't talking about whether or not people could afford to do it (though, BASE is only expensive if you make it expensive - or get arrested), or whether it was likely that some people in the tech industry were jumpers (I know for a fact that many jumpers work in tech).

I was talking about the actual content of the many cringeworthy comments coming from people who were clearly trying to sound informed on a subject they don't understand. Like a knitting circle discussing cryptocurrency.

I see it constantly when anything about flying comes up as well. One or two actual pilots will show up, and 500 people who did an intro lesson or got to take the controls in a friend's plane once, will start trying to share their vast knowledge of the finer points of powered flight.
