SpinLaunch and Theranos perfectly represent our era: Impossibly optimistic promises (read: fraud) backed up only by a shiny PR campaign and orange bronzer. Nah, I'm just kidding, what a salty skeptic I am. You probably didn't hear about it, what with the modern news cycle, but the Mars One guy touched down on Mars yesterday with the first batch of 5,000 colonists. I'mma ask this again: Hypothetically, what should I peddle to the normie 'boomers on NextDoor?
It is the encapsulation of the triumph of Castle In The Air Theory over Fundamental Value Theory. The value of things that can be bought at Series A and sold at IPO is far, far higher than the value of things that will eventually make money. I have thoughts about your Nextdoor Boomers. They are complex.
