It’s neat to analyze how companies are grappling with the “technology S-curve flattening” of consumer electronics

Your phone, computer, and game console already have way more computing power than 95%of people want so selling new products with incremental improvements is getting harder

Moral panic
In 1907, a Catholic priest in Michigan declared teddy bears to be "horrible monstrosities", which by supplanting the "good old dolls" would cause girls to lose the urge to nurture babies, leading to declining birth rates among the white population and race suicide. The suggestion attracted widespread but short-lived attention.[18]

PE companies suck and do a lot of awful things but they’ve become a convenient scapegoat to blame housing prices on. I mean, it’s true for some communities but for like 90% of Americans your housing costs are high mostly because of bad zoning laws kept alive by boomers

Blackrock gets a lot of strays because they get confused for Blackstone which is a private equity company infamous for buying up housing and running it like a slumlord. But even then they’re only an issue for some individual communities they’re not a “national” problem

Blackrock and Vanguard on paper “own” trillions of USD of assets and a big portion of the US stock market/assets, but they’re brokerages. They hold assets on behalf of people and companies. Them having that much AUM is its own problem but they’re not the reason rent and healthcare is so expensive

As a rule you can disregard any political analysis by anyone who describes blackrock or vanguard as if those companies individually and discretely control the US economy

It’s like when a car company announces a new car or an updated model without fail, for literally any mundane car, there will always be a commenter upset there’s “no manual version”

There’s a category of product critique you see online a lot that I think is best described as someone over-estimating how much demand there is for a feature they personally really care about
