This.

The academic internet of the 90s is so far gone and while we're seeing a lot of magic lately, it's magic available to literally everybody for any and every purpose.

We're rapidly seeing how boring and disappointing that is :(

You can find a plethora of critical viewpoints on Hacker News and the various blogs it links to which are well cognizant of the dangers of the tech industry.

The problem isn’t that Wired is critical, it’s that they’ve gone weirdly reactionary and their writing has gone so mass market dumbed down that Some Random Guy’s Blog is likely to have a better written and researched viewpoint.
