It's becoming harder and harder for people who haven't had these string of opportunities to get out here. And therefore the things that they're focusing on are very different from the problems that the vast majority of people have. I feel like there might be a bit of good old day bias here where maybe we should be cognizant of privilege. But at the same time, man, I'm always worried a mess with what works.
This episode was actually recorded on February 18; however, due to circumstances, we had to hibernate Exponent and the episode was never actually edited and posted.
Now that the show is back – for good this time – we wanted to post the “missing episode” plenty of folks have asked us about. There are a couple of dated references, but the content is still very applicable.
In this episode we talk about privilege and whether Silicon Valley is solving the right problems. It’s certainly not a new question, but has it become more pressing in the last few months?
