If you edit the post, maybe touch on how technology always promised liberation but only delivered more of the same class division, how luddites attacked the machines taking their jobs instead of attacking the social contract, how "art and entertainment" is available to a tiny privileged minority while all the rest are simulating/faking conspicuous consumption (including of art and entertainment) to maintain the illusion they were not felt behind ;)

All good points... I'll touch on some of them in future posts. Planning a series of 8-16 on the future of software, incl. a call to action (2-3 months total). Stay tuned.
