The thing with the hype is it's always the same hype. "If you can just 3D print another 3D printer ..." "Apps are dead, everything will be AJAX" etc. I no longer believe the hype itself warrants attention or pushback. Let the hype boys raise money. No need to protect naive VCs.

I genuinely 100% believe that ability of hype boys to raise money is harming the economy and us all. Whatever structural reason for it existing is there, it would be the best to end it.
But if the hype boys manage to capture big portions of the market (Microsoft, Amazon, etc...) it starts affecting pensions and retirement accounts. The next few years are gonna be rough because of this hype.
