Some random comments since I don't have medium

>>greatness in tech is not constrained by capital, it’s constrained by labor; money can be manufactured in an instant, but talent takes years to cultivate

>>as we tend to do every decade

One thing maybe the author maybe didn't focus about is those talented engineers finally leaving fang companies as it is just simply time. And like it was mentioned it is just cyclical. As in all good things come to an end? I've seen a quote saying fang is were talent goes to die but these companies must be doing some pretty good and interesting training for the new generation. One that comes to mind is the guy who started Twilio coming from aws. But, on topic and on the social network companies being around for so long now I cant help but think there will be a new wave coming from them. And it would be interesting to find these new wave companies and give them as an example.

The other thing is that everything is recorded on the internet. so if one is a fraud sooner or later they would be revealed. It is kind of like when you pick up these "famous business books" and it just seems like giberish but at the time they were very popular. I've really liked some "thought leaders" and their vc track but after digging into what they've done/said it is kind of disappointing.
