The IRL answer here is that it doesn't matter if it actually makes money / creates value in the long run, it only matters if the investors think it will, or if the c-suite think the investors think it will, or if the current investors (looking to sell) think that future investors (looking to buy) think it will.

Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

I think you may have accidentally given some backstory to plants vs zombies
This is how I felt binging all the Jurassic Park/World movies. Stop trying to make dino parks and soldiers happen, they're not gonna happen.
2000s web comic look.
Probably because it's a 2000s web comic. Wait until you see the web 1.0 website.
But our numbers show a strong correlation between profit and negative externalities, so as long as we're causing harm we should be making money. Maybe we should start focusing research on even more dangerous monsters.
