Nothing New Under The Sun

This is such an age, when if you think you have a new idea, better do a reality check.
Even something silly like Caterpillar Conciousness. (If reality doesn't make your new old, see a therapist. You could still be saved.)
Infact, as the saying goes, If you are a startup company, and you are doing something that no-body is or has, pack your bags. Your failure is guaranteed.
(Ok. It is not that absurd. Startups need to make money.
To make money they need to have a service or a product which is either a new approach, or an improved one.
Now, given the limited possible solutions to most user-world problems with available supporting technologies for devising a solution, and so many people trying to make money, if all possible solutions haven't been tried, then you are in a field which either has no money, or doesn't exist.
And if you are in a field that doesn't exist, chances of your becoming next Ebay or Amazon, are .00000some ridiculously small Floating Point Number. So mostly, you will fail to make money. Makes sense. No. Try working in a startup. You'll know what I mean. But then Basic_Hope = 1/pi. Why ? Constant, you see. So we try to get real. I mean get the floating point. Now on that note, we have a pj. You can never get hold of a floating point, because if you did, it will no longer be floating. Mwhahahahaha.)
