The 2023 Tech Year in Review
Episode: 87 Published: 1/4/2024
Prognostications, Auguries, and Soothsaying: Oh my!
In this special episode of Chaos Lever, Chris and Ned sit down to review their predictions for 2023 to see if they have proven to be accurate, or at least amusing. Ned provides compelling evidence for why most of his predictions were somewhat correct, although Chris challenges some of his results. Chris also shares headlines and data to support his claims, though ultimately, both aspiring prognosticators have to compare their abilities to the legend himself: Nostradamus.
