          Silicon valley dudes rewarded for being smart have a difficult time understanding that there are realms in which they are not smart because they do not understand the problem. Their simple ideas are predictably terrible.

          Software and hardware are easy compared to social issues that seem intractable. It’s relatively easy to muster resources to solve problems in the tech domain. It’s *much* more difficult to muster the political will & public patience for long-term programs to help "those people."
