      At this point you could say that the long-term success of a nation is determined by its ability to produce technological literacy (or capture technological literacy produced somewhere else)

      The thing is, technology is power, but technology isn't a thing that exists as an external resource, like a stack of coal and iron ore. It mostly exists in people and culture. Its concrete artifacts are short-lived and expandable.

      A tech company without its engineers and processes is just a pile of exponentially depreciating software and servers, that will be worth zero within months. It's all in the people and culture

          ...which is why it's all the more galling that Congress hasn't had dedicated independent advisors on technology since 1994, when they dissolved the Office of Technology Assistance.

          The old car companies think what separates them from Tesla is that Teslas are electric. But they're also separated by the fact that Teslas are software, and that, they will discover, is an unbridgeable gulf.
