I think with a lot of digitally enabled enterprise, we are finding that in this saturated market is that operating and building the "enterprise" is the hard part. For your plumber example, the software is the easy part. Retaining

I've always wondered about this. Apart from the small fine dining market, people just want decent food at a decent price and timeliness.

While yes, a planned economy is inefficient, the provision of public goods is inefficient when left to private markets. Essentially, the private market is inefficient for any type of "market failures". This article is a decent sta
