Centralized is never on the way out. It just makes everything so easy.

I don't like it, but saying that anything centralized is on the way out is just wishful thinking.

[contingencies]

You forget the successes of decentralization. In the same way that bureaucracy was surpassed with the web, torrents, and Bitcoin, so too will it be surpassed eventually in the field of business and consumer supply chains. It may not be today or tomorrow, but it will happen.

The web is increasingly centralized; torrents both centralized themselves and were displaced by centralized services.

[Ensorceled]

Bureaucracy has been surpassed? This is yet more wishful thinking ...

[contingencies]

It has, in terms of publishing.
