Wouldn't it be great if somebody who understands commercial real estate built a software company?
But then they don't know how to build software.
Well, they should get a co-founder who knows how to build software and teach them about 20 years of commercial real estate.
It's really hard.
But now the path from that kind of idea is a capital problem.
I totally agree.
And that's a new level of abstraction.
And I mean, I remember my very, very first customer visit as a professional product developer was to visit a doctor who happened to have gone to medical school after majoring in the earliest computer science.
Oh, wow.
And he wrote like a DOS program to schedule a doctor's office.
That's amazing.
which you'd think it's just scheduling.
It's a calendar with hours.
But it turns out this was me, a 20-year-old me, hearing this guy explain, no, you don't understand.
You call the doctor and, you know, you're talking to a scheduler.
So they're listening for keywords to decide, is this five minutes, 20 minutes?
Do they need the x-ray machines?
Do they need the EKG?
And so they're actually scheduling like a blood draw and all of this stuff in parallel, not just the 10 minutes you need with the doctor.
And so that's what his software did.
