          And by your swiss cheese logic, everything we do these days is tech news.

          It’s a common fallacy that drops community quality like a rock.

          It’s like programming horror being flooded with things that aren’t even marginally related to programming. But since technically all our technology is programmed, then it’s technically programming related.

              No, they are arguing that everything is technically technology. So we should turn this community into a basket weaving forum.

                But what is the “everything” being discussed? A Tech CEO’s decisions and changes over a social media platform, which is a widely used technology. Nevermind the business aspects that exist everywhere, is it even reasonable to talk of social media, technology dedicated towards social connections, without addressing the social aspects involved?

          Why don’t we have articles about Burger King then? They have a website on the Internet that runs on technology.
