       Regarding what Jenny was talking about in that last boost, a lot of the TechBros seem to have a thing for pretending they are physicists (or would have been). It's an aesthetic. I don't think they actually care what anything means as long as they sound science-y enough to enough people. Perhaps part of it is to con themselves too.

       There can be an arrogance/superiority-complex to physicists, historically, so perhaps that's some of the attraction of the aesthetic for TechBros.
