I think about what it would take for a small group of smart people to do what they do. Walmart? Seems hard. Meta? I could see that.

I know that’s oversimplifying and probably naive, but huge physical operations seem like more of a moat.

You are probably saying this because you are coming from a tech background (my guess)

For people with a Walmart background, Meta is black magic
