tech “journalists” have spent so much time in the California bubble that they cannot perceive any metrics beyond “market share” and “growth"

i think this applies to many other things honestly

my personal favorite example is tesla. tesla is a shitty ev. it can look cool, but it has objectively shitty hardware design, it can only really work in the californian climate (no harsh winters, no harsh summers in populated areas)

and tech journos fucking love them, they sing praises and lick those stupid door handles that are impossible to grapple after any freeze

meanwhile, most people ive met (and myself) genuienly cannot think about owning one in a place like central russia, where the weather can jump between sunny 20c during the day and wet snow at -10c at night
