After careful and measured consideration, HN comes out swinging for technocracy.

I'm shocked.

(Meanwhile, half the COVID-19 threads are people pissed off because the US did take a technocratic approach to mask recommendations and they hate it because programmers don't get to be part of the inner circle of public health decision makers.)
