We're going to discover that "move fast and break stuff" wasn't even truly a strategy that worked to build success in Silicon Valley for anything other than extracting investor money.

    I don't know, I think by their stated goals they did alright. They took investor money, yes, but they used it to move very quickly and break a lot of things. Now, we should probably have seen ahead of time that this was actually a bad thing and that breaking things is a bad goal, but it was the 2000s and we all thought touchscreen digital watches were pretty neat.
