so i work in tech as a tech person but im unsure if im a "tech bro" or just someone who works in tech. its kinda hard to judge because i kinda dont talk to what people probably consider techbros.

anyone got any ideas on a decent description?

in my head it's more about making iot from scratch.. I have no clue how to hook stuff into existing things but finding cute ways to do something that I can't do easily like measure humidity or interact with a little gizmo I made on the wall would be very fun

Yeah fair enough. I’m definitely jaded and just don’t see it the way most people do. A regular old light switch has never failed me. Like I said in another comment, I’m become more of a Luddite as time passes lol.
