We birthed ragTech (yes, camel case) to chat about the real side of tech. Picture it as the convos you'd overhear in a tech office, minus the overly intense jargon. Join us for chaotic laughter as we confess how half the time, we can't figure out what we're doing at work. We're the ones arguing about light mode versus dark mode, diving into random topics, and just keeping it real—because life in tech is more than lines of code.
