And it's why the collective should be fighting against this trend. But in recent times billionaires came to be revered more than anything. It's changing course a bit now again, but billionaires, and people in power in general, are still being defended way more than is reasonable.
Society treats being in power and being powerful as success and something to aspire to, and we can see where that leads.
In addition, the work is never fully lost.
If unity goes to shit, welp, cannot use any of unity's code at all. Years and years of engine development wasted.
If some FOSS software goes to shit? That code is still there. Just take it and unshittify it. Little to no work wasted.
Seems like every tech company lately
On the other hand, most people who ended up getting a diagnosis for some form of neurodivergence had suspicions themselves before specifically asking to get tested. In my experience, medical professionals really are not looking out for stuff as much as they should.
I myself ended up getting a diagnosis as an adult after my own insistence at getting tested, despite how obvious it was my whole life.
And people think billionaires are smart
They're not even good at business
Valve didn't release it, just en ex-employee though, right?

More like importing the goods from other countries with looser regulations
How much more powerful can he be? He'd be more powerful if he was more subtle about stuff and people weren't ready to fight against him.
It's much better to effectively use him as an argument for why billionaires shouldn't exist. Fuel for the fire of change.
He is one of the richest people in the world.
The more news about billionaires like this pop up, the easier it will be to argue that maaaaaaaybe we shouldn't be giving them that much power in society.
If that isn't a massive red flag, nothing else is.
I guess people expected our commercial world to work at least decently well
But the more time goes on the more that illusion is shattering.
