“Winners Take None:” Coworking, Self Storage, Scooters
- adhesive_wombat 3y agoEvery industry that doesn't get consumed by a huge "tech" company that just slaps a middle-ware app on something is a good thing. It's just endless empty-eyed bullshit that couldn't give a damn if the industry they're weevilling into is building cars or renting hotel rooms. They just want to extract a cut of whatever it is and/or siphon data. Then scale, scale, scale to impress The Investors until it falls apart under its own weight, but not before pockets are filled.
- cellis 3y agoThe "winners" are the consumers who got nearly free services and innovation, and the greater-fool-and-cashed-out investors, founders, early employees and to some extent employees who enjoyed great salaries. But not the investors.
