From @mgharris34 on @backtestpodcast: "...customers don't buy your core technology all by itself. They buy the complete solution. They buy the outcome that they actually want. And Richard Trevithick is a great example of this. You know, he built a great locomotive prototype, but didn't have the rails that could support it. Iron technology hadn't caught up. So he just, didn't have the total product and George Stephenson did just about 20 years later. And you see this over and over again with major technological revolutions." As true today as it was in the early 1800s... x.com/johnarnold/sta…
