Serious adults?

They are in extremely short supply right now.

It’s a mix of serious-wanna be, quasi religious, quasi-technical people running the show right now.

I am so happy to I got to read about the 90s-2000s tech culture, and experienced the post-2008 startup culture.

Just about 10 years ago people were really serious, but chill-looking. Somehow that got flipped.

Sometimes being unserious is actually very serious. See current US administration.

Mario Zechner's talk "Building Pi in a World of Slop" is a good listen, on the topic of adults in a "world of slop". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RjfbvDXpFls
