@aral fast tech is good as it enables fast improvement. As long as we use tech in a good, sustainable way. Re-design for the good -
@thomaswensma By fast tech, I mean the fast food of tech—unsustainable and unhealthy in the long term. -
@aral ah..got it. Fast consumption of it. In that case…I fully agree! Analogy is very good actually. Looks tasty and cheap >

@aral Perfect example of startup fast food if you ask me.
