Replying to @devonzuegel
People seem to use the word to connote: * narratively rich, not boring * exclusive, not widely accessible * subjectively difficult tech. This causes them to say FaceBook moderation queues are but FICO is not, satellites are but iPhones not, Palantir is but database not, etc.
