Ask HN: Techno-Pessimism of Tech News Outlets
3 points by yuvalsteuer 11 months ago | hide | past | favorite | 2 comments
I'm getting really worried by technological pessimism in media outlets, not sure if this is beneign, intentional or what. e.g

Flexport just raised $260m from Shopify and "The Information"'s article title is: "Struggling Logistics firm Flexport Raises $260 Million from Shopify"

Example: https://x.com/based_times/status/1748814944689389599?s=20




“Struggling” is factual. Flexport had a public CEO and leadership shit show and 20% staff layoff last year.

If they didn’t want to be considered “struggling” they should have put a lid on that drama.
