Do people actually consider rail signaling software "unsexy"? It's like a router for trains instead of packets. If I was an investor I would much rather brag about my investment in freight train routing infrastructure than a tinder for IoT users app.
- Qworg 8y agoYou're not a typical investor in the described class. Frankly, I suffer from this expectation sometimes too - many things that seem wildly off course make sense from the perspective of the folks driving the ship.
- burfog 8y agoAlso not being an investor, I agree with your ranking. Even better would be any sort of heavy industry. Elon Musk's stuff (rockets, cars, tunnels) is mighty nice. Refineries, 100-ton forges, container ships, and similar are all more impressive than software.
