The sign of a great CEO is that sense of urgency.

It's clearly Malcolm McDowell

They also mean "the wrong people are having too many children".

Also:

Poor black people with lots of kids, using government assistance: "Don't have kids you can't afford!"

Middle-class white people putting off having kids because they can't afford them: "Don't give us that excuse, start breeding!"

By the beer standard the most tech-bro-y place I've worked was Swiss Bank Corp / O'Connor in Chicago, a software focused trading shop. In 1994. NeXT machines and Symbolics LISP machines on the private trading floor kind of place, with refrigerators kept stocked with free sodas and beer. Beer was for after 5, except on St Patrick's day, when coolers of beer came out at about noon. Also, Nerf guns on the trading floor.

And yet, at least for the people I know best from there, they didn't turn out to be tech bros. Perhaps there's a generational aspect.

Sounds like they called it "Turing" in the midcentury law enforcement sense.

The real “techbros” are all business people in an actual position of power, not the introverted QA tester just trying to get through the day.

If the QA tester goes home and checks his Raspberry Pi dogecoin mining rig, and is saving up for a Cybertruck, he's probably a tech bro, if only a larval one.

There's probably some blurring of what "AI doom" means for people. People might be left thinking that "there could be negative effects due to widespread job loss etc" without necessarily buying into the weird maximalist AI doom ideas or "torturing simulated you forever" nonsense.

To be fair though rodents can have pretty huge balls. Like dragging on the ground behind them huge.

I'm not sure the "frontiers in" journals are all that reputable.
