Ask HN: Is it just me?
Is it just me or are there a shit ton of fake ass people in tech? All I see are people pushing their own fake shit for money or popularity. And it's fucking obvious, but it seems everybody just goes along with it for fear of getting fired or losing a financial or popularity contest. Am I the only one noticing this and what can we do about it? I'm sick of the fake smiles, fake compliments, and fake lives. How do we counter this growing trend?

Just be an individual. Not everybody in tech plays the game, and you certainly don't have to play the game.
It's not just you. Read "The Recognitions" by Gaddis.
