You're saying that people's lives may not actually improved in any meaningful way by the Tinder for flatmates mobile app I'm building?

Seriously, the science fiction world of William Gibson and so on where normal people hack electronics for fun hasn't really emerged at all despite the tools to do things having become cheaper and more accessible. It seems we've moved away from that since the 1990s, as machines become more packaged and less customisable.

Maybe we need a a new lean hack canvas that isn't focused on revenue.
