1. Incompatibilidad de la filosofía "Move Fast and Break Things".
Los ciudadanos y expertos expresan una profunda preocupación por la aplicación de mantras de startups a la gestión pública, argumentando que el gobierno requiere deliberación y estabilidad en lugar de una experimentación caótica.
- The move fast and break things silicon valley mentality does not translate to government because when we break things in government, we impact peoples lives. Literally.
- Move fast and break things is the silicon valley way. They dont say it out loud anymore but its still the disastrous way they operate.
- The government is neither a business nor a nonprofit, much less a move fast and break things tech firm. Instead of making government work like silicon valley, we should be making government work like government.
2. El costo humano y la seguridad pública frente a los errores de software.
A diferencia del sector tecnológico, donde un error resulta en un fallo de código, en el ámbito gubernamental las fallas pueden traducirse en tragedias humanas, afectando la salud, la alimentación y la vida de millones.
- When silicon valley gets things wrong, the worst case is generally software errors. When government does this, people die.
- Move fast and break things kind of doesnt work if there are millions of lives at stake. Silicon valley has been a growing cancer for a long time.
- The model of failing fast and breaking things will put peoples lives at risk. The stakes in government are higher and the consequences far greater than in silicon valley.
3. La arrogancia del "Tech Bro" y el desconocimiento burocrático.
Se critica la percepción de superioridad de los líderes de Silicon Valley, quienes asumen que el gobierno es ineficiente por naturaleza sin comprender la complejidad de las leyes y la importancia de los controles institucionales.
- This is peak silicon valley hubris. Justifying recklessness as relentless pursuit of a goal. But the government isnt a startup trying to find growth or stay alive.
- Silicon valley tech-bros love to focus on ppl having high agency. And they dont even realize, pursuing specialized degree sometimes multiple to fulfill the role of underpaid govt bureaucrat is in fact, a high agency decision.
- The arrogant silicon valley ethos is move fast and break things. But of course what is broken cant always be fixed.
4. La paradoja del financiamiento público y la innovación tecnológica.
Muchos señalan la ironía de que los líderes tecnológicos busquen desmantelar el Estado, cuando la infraestructura y la investigación que permitieron el auge de Silicon Valley fueron financiadas originalmente por el gobierno.
- Silicon valley owes everything to government investment in research and in industry. This is an inconvenient fact for our aristocrats who want their bloated power to be only due to their innate virtue.
- The department of defence created silicon valley. They chose stanford, a private agricultural college, to hide the flow of money from the public.
- Federal investments in rd through science agencies like nsf, nasa, nih, dod, etc. Are the reason why america, and not other countries, became home to silicon valley.
5. Riesgos críticos en energía nuclear, aviación y salud.
La aplicación de métodos de "prueba y error" en sectores de alta sensibilidad es vista como una negligencia criminal que ignora décadas de estándares de seguridad construidos sobre lecciones del pasado.
- The silicon valley move fast and break things philosophy maybe, possibly, actually does not have any fucking right to be within 12 miles of nuclear industries.
- Move fast and break things might be a good mantra in silicon valley, but when it comes to the federal government, its a recipe for disaster.
- Go fast, make mistakes, and break things is the motto of silicon valley startups. They didnt understand that rules, especially aviation related rules, are written with blood.
6. El impacto en la democracia y las normas institucionales.
La mentalidad de disrupción se percibe como una amenaza directa a la democracia, donde el objetivo no es mejorar el servicio público, sino privatizar funciones estatales y eludir la rendición de cuentas.
- One current critique of silicon valley is that they moved fast and broke democracy and institutional norms. Thats true.
- The silicon valley mantra of move fast and break things when applied to government means you wish to supplant the current government. Only authoritarians want to destroy democracies.
- The government is not a business, but silicon valley techno-fascists take this category error to the extreme, porting their lock-in monopoly view of markets to politics our polity.
