Less web startups, less innovation. Sorry, I can't be more specific about the future. But I can be about the past: Google probably would not have taken over search with its better ranking if AltaVista could just buy being much faster. Social networks probably would not have overtaken Orkut (culminating in Facebook after may interactions) if Orkut could just buy being much faster. Reddit (and Hacker News), if slow as molasses, might have lost to traditionally curated news sites (this one is a stretch). Stripe wouldn't seriously compete with PayPal if it was much slower when it was starting. So, what giants of the future will we be drowning on birth tomorrow? Specifically? No clue. But I'm very confident that they exist.
