Are there *any* #techbros that are decent human beings?
Certainly the top slots seem worryingly devoid of much humanity.
Maybe I'm just not up to speed with what passes for a decent human being these days.

@emsquared I think anyone "bro" already signifies a certain amount of asshole... The biggest problem seems to be their total disconnection from the real world and seemingly no desire to even think about how non-billionaires live.

@fig It is certainly one hell of a bubble.
I mean Steve Jobs had a reality distortion field but this lot are really distorting reality.

@emsquared I don't feel it's right lumping Steve Jobs in with the tech bros even though by all accounts he was a massive dick but he kind of stayed in his lane. Is/was Bill Gates a tech bro? I'm not sure. Definitely Ellison, Zuckerberg, et al. Perhaps it's their politics...

@emsquared
It is like asking if any moron isn't stupid; nothing good comes along that term.

Tech CEO aren't decent human being as the nature of tech industry, especially in recent years, are mostly about exploiting the grey area in market before legislation kicks in.

Maybe some old school ones like arm Holdings? At least not flooded with scandals.

@ada I guess we reward arseholes. Heaven knows why. I mean it's not in anyone's better interest.

@emsquared I wish I can say that they are the arseholes that got away, but yeah humans are hard to understand.
