- greglindahl 9y agoThat's a hilarious comment. The New Space industry doesn't want orbital debris, either.
- wmf 9y agoMy point is that the line between disruptive innovation and reckless crackpottery isn't always clear, and the solution to one reckless startup isn't to give up on innovation.
- greglindahl 9y agoAh. I didn't see anyone recommend giving up on innovation.
