this one, once money trickled in, tech attracted people who are doing it for the money only, not for the love of tech.
big tech sort of replaced wall street as main career choice for some people and naturally attracted "wallstreet bros" type into the tech, who are now known as "tech bros"
Or, one could argue that the influx of money and the ever-increasing hardware capability enabled saner, more human languages. Human both in design, as in, easier to learn, more accommodating to human mental models, and human in a way that they account more for human fallacies. Something that old languages, and lower levels of abstractions cannot do, because it's expensive to double-check, or to defend against the human.
