The point the article is making is that a true moonshot is a project of incredible scale and ambition, and that we're loosing something by allowing the modern usage of the word.
- turk73 7y agoWe've lost much due to modern marketers running away with language. Most things are blown way out of proportion compared to their actual worth. We should mock such people mercilessly.
- brightball 7y agoModern usage of words are abused in all sorts of formats. I don't think moonshot is going to get any special treatment here any more than "all out blitz", "hate", "nazi", "socialist", etc. Social media in today's culture is almost built to destroy the meaning of words by overusing them for everything.
- TheBranca18 7y agoThe fact that the word literally means itself and its opposite based on use for emphasis is another good example of this.
