It is satire. They just don’t realise it yet.

It’s pretty clear that we are in the phase where everyone is rushing to get a slice of the pie selling dubious thing and people start parroting word soup hoping they actually make sense and fearing they will miss out. That’s indeed what people often and rightfully satirise about the IT industry. That’s the joke phase before things settle.

How is it satire to be excited and interested in how to use compelling and novel technology? There's a lot of activity. Not everyone involved is an idiot or rube. The jadedness makes my head spin.
It's not idiocy. If you don't see the slight ridiculouness in the world soup of the original commenter, I can't do anything for you. I'm not jaded. I'm amused you are all so deconnected from the normal world you think this kind of situation is somehow normal and not at all funny.
Why don’t you try shaking your fist at your computer instead of wasting everyone’s time in this thread. Touch grass
