We need to be constantly adapting and innovating as a result of this change. This means we need to distinguish between availability of SKUs and eligibility for SKUs. You can think of eligibility as something that is applied at the user level, while availability is at the country level.

Consider healthcare: although medical costs are much higher today in nominal terms than they were in 1970, they are much lower in real terms when adjusted both for monetary inflation and medical-technological innovation. Or would you rather be treated for all of these to a standard of care available in 2020?

You need a lot of software engineers and the willingness to rewrite a lot of software to entertain that idea. Rather than reimplement TCP/IP or refactor an existing transport, we started Pony Express from scratch to innovate on more efficient interfaces, architecture, and protocol. Enter Google!

While a diverse set of algorithms working together can produce a great outcome, innovating on such a complex system can be difficult. To this end, we developed tools that compared real pages computed by our live production system with that of our simulators, both in terms of the final output and the features involved in our models.

Rather than understanding the disruption phenomenon through the lens of change that has already happened, it is worth looking at the change that has not happened but should have given the availability of technology to bring it about. One defense is that community schooling develops social interaction skills.

I love the way he manages to wrangle disparate topics across science and history to show how much of innovation and advancement is non-linear. Lies was an Ocean’s Eleven-esque story with a blistering pace that (in my opinion) cared less about developing the characters than it did about having fun. This isn’t one of them.
