Not even the butterfly effect. Neoclassical economics centered "the invisible hand" as the mechanism by which individual self-interest turns into collective prosperity.
The idea that you can do whatever you want and not more generally affect people is nonsense. And since you can't know whether that affect was good or bad, in contrast to every optimistic and coincidentally opportunistic tech-bro the world over, you should be far more cautious about what you do.
