Making side projects isn't a trillion dollar industry tho, adding to the fact that we are facing another global supply chain crisis due to the Iran War; the US is about to commit the biggest self-own ever in the history of empire.
- zelphirkalt 5mo agoThe US has been on a course of self-owns ever since Trump got into office. That they still are a dominant power on the globe shows how much they were one before Trump, but it seems to be changing. At every self-own they commit, China laughs and inches up a little closer. I think we will see the day, when they are evenly matched in our lifetimes. But which self-own exactly do you mean, of the many there are?
- Schmerika 5mo agoThere are actually quite a few trillion dollar industries that exist thanks to "side projects". Apple was Woz's side project, once upon a time. Adsense came from Google's 20% time. Social media started as a side project. Forests grow from trees. Trees grow from seeds. More potential seeds = more potential forests.
- queenkjuul 5mo agoAll the undiscovered Woz's of the world add up to a trillion dollars? There's $1T of money out there waiting to be spent on side projects? The question was "are side projects a trillion dollar industry" not "has a side project ever started an industry" How much of a new $1T software product will anthropic capture in token costs, anyway?
