Or technically feasible but with significant social or legal obstables (e.g. AirBnB, Uber).&lt;p&gt;2) Then there&amp;#x27;s another category, disruption that defies laws of physics. Kickstarter is replete with examples. This includes things like pocket-size underwater rebreaters, self-filling water bottles, and solar-powered motorcycles.&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#x27;m no expert in the subject matter but Theranos tech seems to be in the latter.</text><parent_chain><item><author>kumarski</author><text>I&amp;#x27;ve talked to over 100 hematologists.&lt;p&gt;This business, didn&amp;#x27;t pass a basic litmus test of objective criticism from people who work in the space.&lt;p&gt;There seems to be this bravado among founders who believe they&amp;#x27;re sticking it to all the people who say something&amp;#x27;s amiss.

There are many examples of &amp;quot;ridiculous&amp;quot; ideas that ended being wildly successful.  Where would Elon Musk be if he listened to all of the incumbents who said that his ideas would never work? Obviously, the putative innovators massively failed in this case, but I don&amp;#x27;t think that the outcome proves that their original idea was fatally flawed, or at least that it wasn&amp;#x27;t worth attempting.</text><parent_chain><item><author>kumarski</author><text>I&amp;#x27;ve talked to over 100 hematologists.&lt;p&gt;This business, didn&amp;#x27;t pass a basic litmus test of objective criticism from people who work in the space.&lt;p&gt;There seems to be this bravado among founders who believe they&amp;#x27;re sticking it to all the people who say something&amp;#x27;s amiss.
