This is why I don't consider most CRUD/mobile/web app companies to be "tech companies". If there's no R&D, you're not producing technology.

If you’re introducing tech that we on HN consider bog standard to a field that thinks fax machines are fancy ... are you building tech? Your users certainly think you are.
