From a tech perspective, here are a few ideas that are part of the accepted orthodoxy that often go completely unquestioned:

- Worse is Better

- Many contributors make open source projects higher quality

- Modern programming languages should always be Turing complete

- Kubernetes

- AI is a very powerful hammer and every problem can be framed as a nail

- All novel and popular technology represents progress

- Programming is (and should be) hard

- End-users care about Software Freedoms

- Open Source projects always benefit end-users (perhaps indirectly)

- Collecting user data for unknown future use is acceptable and even prudent

- Governments always tend to get in the way of tech progress

- Innovation is always distributed from producers to consumers (and occasionally augmented by "prosumers")

"These questions were once beyond the pale. [...] None of that made them untrue"

So the question is, what are the questions we could be asking ourselves about how the world "is" right now? What are the unquestioned assumptions about the world that we are unable to ask or even see?
