There are anthropologists and sociologists out there. In case someone is interested in a more nuanced perspective than this “warm fuzzies” from a random MIT grad technologist.
The irony: "warm fuzzies" is exactly how one could describe what anthropologist and sociologist do.

If the disciplines acquired some rigor without me noticing it, please, do link to the corresponding studies that are not "just-so" stories.

I haven't enjoyed/learned from a blog post like that in years. Thank you for sharing that.
This is much better than the OP.
