Every startup pitch is “what if [thing that exists] but [worse in ways we’ll discover later]” + “first principles thinking” which is why we keep re-inventing pressed juice, buses and the concept of having neighbours
@Daojoan A lot of the stuff from the tech bros seems to boil down to "What if [thing that exists] but without poor people?"
