> And in my head I'm thinking — "wow...you spend how much on your coffee EVERY DAY, COMPULSIVELY, yet you scoff at a complete body of work someone is selling to you for $5?" Yeah, but, I don't know many people who will harvest, ship, and roast coffee beans just for fun. I'm mostly just thrown by everyone casting this as some insane race condition, some producer lunacy that's confusing irrational consumers. Maybe consumers are the smart ones, and they're sending a deliberate signal to producers. Maybe we're saying, "Hey, we have distraction mostly covered as a human problem. And there are a lot of these other human problems to work on. If you're smart and can pitch in other places where we have greater needs, where it's harder to attract talent because the fields aren't as inherently rewarding, then we'll toss you better returns. (If you can go without good returns, then no big deal, just do what you love.)" I don't think markets are always (or even usually) rational. But if we're pitting today's game prices against the monopolistic rents charged by consoles a couple decades ago... I don't first assume today's prices are the irrational ones.
