   Looking through Linkedin and all the bad managers I've had seem to be cast from the same mould:

   - Into "AI", but gesture towards doomerim to look reasonable
   - Believes "AI" coders will replace programmers
   - Pretending they weren't into "blockchain" a few months ago
   - Uses trendy PKM du jour (Aboard is replacing Notion among the MBA types)
   - Uses passive voice to gloss over the mistakes they've made in the past
   - Older ones talk about Web 2.0 as if it wasn't a bullshit marketing term at the time

     Serious question here: What is "Web 2.0?"

     @baldur I thought Web 2.0 was the same as the web, but with added VC enclosure of the commons and advertising engagement driven surveillance capitalism?
