Bearish on YCs turn to the military industrial complex. It basically means that they've given up on trying to create 0-to-1 paradigm shifting products and would rather sucks on the pentagon's teat.

Thoughts on YC’s move into defense tech?

Building something new. 🟪 Host: /venturecapital /adventures /theitinerant

It’s unfortunately necessary 

we (me?) hoped that software would somehow bring the best of the world together and we wouldn’t need a military industrial complex

foolish me

so now we live in a world where legacy military companies *might* be as outdated as legacy finance

if we want the West to maintain a strong militaristic position in the world, we need the tech VCs to help build the next wave military complex
