im not talking about the recent CN episodes but like. I assume no major tech company makes money, or if it does, it's through a side gig (like AWS being responsible for Amazon making any profits).
Streaming services spending 9 fucking figures on a movie and then saying it's somehow actually profitable because you can't quantify an ad free stream like you could a movie ticket
And Uber can't even shift their numbers around well enough to look profitable
It's not that economics didn't help anyone understand what happens in markets. It's just that you can use it to lie to yourself and to other people and that's one of the main advantages of the whole thing.
