- StressedDev 2y agoBoeing has been losing market share to AirBus for decades. That is what happens when you cannot fix your problems, sell a safe product, keep costs in line, etc.

- moomin 2y agoThe question then becomes: if the market is producing near-monopolies of stuff that is barely fit for purpose, how do we fix the market?
