This kind of piece is usually boring (not only The Guardian ones btw), but they have an important purpose: remind us of the ridiculousness of our culture. We need every help possible, believe me

I thought the article had an entirely appropriate level of snark. The Valley's level of self-congratulation for achieving the mundane becomes insufferable without regular doses of cynicism. It's good to get chopped back down to reality every once in a while.

I found the article quite humorous, and I assume that the article was intentionally sarcastic. But of course, these days Poe's law might even apply to more traditional publishers.
