Yes, but I've thought something has been wrong for near enough a decade. Like I said, I'm a layperson so I'm looking for a source that isn't other tech bros recycling each others' hot takes.

This is how I've understood how tech has operated. Spotify, Uber, etc.
I just don't have the subject knowledge to work out for myself whether you're another doomsayer or not. I appreciate the detailed comment (and I'm reading the sources) but I think it misses what I'm looking for.
- time_to_smile 4y agoIf you want a more purely academic/economic perspective on the larger issue I recommend "The End of the Everything Bubble" by Alasdair Nairn. As implied by the title, it doesn't focus exclusively on tech but on the asset bubble as a whole.
