    More and more I’m realizing just how corrupt our industry is and how people have taken such an awesome tool and use it to take advantage of others. Companies have C-level members who get paid these insane amounts of money to “watch people work” while other people, building the products, get treated like trash with horrific work and living conditions.

    Due to how new tech is, there aren’t really any governing rules as for how it should be handled and used. I firmly believe that like doctors we need to become a body of developers who uphold a standard for this thing that we understand. We are the ones who spend so much time with it and in order to be able to demand ethic work conditions we need to take and uphold our own oath or cofe of ethics.

    Yea, I'm a web developer. It does seem to be very common book in tech for the obvious reasons but it can be applied to just soon many areas of life.

    The Phoenix Project is a really good read! Haven't been able to find the time to finish it but a place to chat about it would be really cool.
