"Is Revenue Model More Important than Culture?" is a very interesting read, I read it twice, once yesterday, once again today while taking notes about it. The "dominant term rule" is concept that is similar to what you are describing Eric with the concept "financial gravity". Which is is similar to the [[large object theory of history]], explained on the podcast episode [[The War on Cars: Tony Kushner on The Pushcart War]]: >[[large object theory of history]] is that all human misery is the product, not of some sort of general malevolence, equally distributed among the human population, but located among certain people who feel that they have to basically get into a gigantic truck and run over pushcart peddlers in order to be safe and secure in this world.
