The mistake people who ask this question make is assuming that growth must be contained on a single planet. As they used to say in a previous generation, mankind's destiny lies in the stars. And we don't get there by worrying about limits or by rejecting the idea that a better future is possible. Stagnation is a choice. Decline is a choice.
- majormajor 3y agoReally, we should be buying Google/Meta/Microsoft/etc stock because they will have interplanetary profits in [future]? I think there's a lot of other companies (both existing and not-existing-yet) that would capture a bunch of that growth first anyway. Nah, the mistake people make is assuming that everyone actually believed all these companies would grow forever. A huge part of recent tech valuations has been driven by "greater-fool" type pumping of selling questionable business models and half-baked ideas as fast as possible.
