I probably have a blog post in me about how there aren't many "tech" companies anymore.

We have all the "tech". If you're building something, you need expertise in the thing you are building, not a bunch of developers doing their thing.

Are you looking to make a better restaurant POS? you need people who worked at restaurants.

Want to build a short-haul delivery app? find some movers

Are you building a third space? prioritize moderators and editors.

You'll need developers, for sure. But they will build whatever you need. and you need to know what you need to do right.

@jamuraa was talking a bit about this with a colleague today: a lot of "tech" is now about pitching for funding to invent new ways of being a landlord
@nach true. I wish it was more of the standard landlording (servers to run things for yourself, buy software) than it was new and more horrible ways to landlord.
