People always forget that just because some service market is valuable doesn’t mean that it’s going to be wildly profitable or end up as a monopoly or duopoly. Lots of examples of industries that struggled for decades to generate attractive ROE before the competition shook itself out.

But darth...should I go through the whole rigamarole of making a shepherd's pie OR should I just make a large batch of mashed potatoes? The latter option is tempting...

You’re bringing back horrid memories of NJT on Wednesday night. I did that a few times and then said never again. It’s the absolute worst predictably horrible traffic jam in the history of traffic jams.

I agree that it feels very dotcom-ish. Like then, there have been bazillions invested in niche-y startups founded in the last 24 months, and given the scale effects of AI, most of that capital will go poof. And even today’s leaders are still at risk, eg, few saw Google coming in 1999.

That was a well-deserved Edward Tufte-ish takedown of a chart. He particularly despises charts with gratuitous 3D elements.

One theory is that they will retrade some of the assets to get something like another Corbin Burnes deal over the winter. I'm not saying that's a good theory, but it's a theory.
