- thebigkick 11y agoWould you care to explain the cockroaches metaphor? I'm confused.
- gaius 11y agoCockroaches can survive extremely hostile environments that more "advanced" creatures cannot. They might not be pretty like unicorns, but they are extremely well adapted to resource-poor environments.
- pavornyoh 11y ago@dmritard96, care to elaborate a bit on your post?
- dmritard96 11y agosure. There was what seems to be a correction in the PE market where funding become a bit more difficult to get a hold of. As such, an article came out suggesting that unicorns would have problems but cockroaches would survive. While the unicorn portion is a bit silly, the cockroach part is reasonable. Essentially, the companies with low burn rates and actual, real, cashflow will be more likely to survive.
