I mean.... isn't this true for hardware too?
Razors today looks very different from the ones when it was invented. Same goes for vacuum cleaners, cars, tools for construction/manual task, the list goes on.
The only notable difference is that each iteration of hardware have a vividly clear version start/end date compared to the rolling versioning of software. First vacuum cleaner was invented 1908...
- canofbars 6y agoEverything is improving I guess but there is very little relative investment in razors. They look different but arguably function worse than the original style double edge. Vacuum cleaners have had a bit of innovation but no one is really desperate for a better vacuum cleaner unlike software. Also many of these hardware items have basically reached close to their peak form. You can't really make a radically better bicycle because we have already reached almost the best design. With a team and a few years you can usually obliterate the leading software product in most areas and with a large team you could completely revolutionize it since there is so much easy target improvements to be had.
