I wonder how many people within the tech bubble *really* understand how rare and concentrated their skill set is
Inside literally every other institution and industry are 1000s of people musing over intractable problems that 2 engineers could solve in a few months

One cool think about my life lately is I get to hear humanists complain about their philosophy colleagues, e.g. "hey, our philosophy department has a guy who argues that it's rational to sell our babies."
