How does the tech industry disparage those people?
That’s anecdotal, but I’m willing to bet the typical technologist is not like your peers.
Tech people tends to be close minded.
This is how ordinary people see tech people.
People in tech usually don't either.
Idk I feel like there are a lot of non-technical people who work in tech here now.
Why would you think "people in tech" are some homogenous group to generalize about?
Just because someone works with tech it doesnt mean they are bright. Glad that now the HN lot is showing its true identity.
Some of the tech bros are actually into technology though.
Why is there a difference between inside and outside the tech community?
