1. lots of innovation in ICE engines is getting close to production. Cleaner, more efficient etc. This is important even while the industry is moving to EVs.
2. Bambu Labs leapfrogged prosumer 3D printing by 5-10 years. Their printers are becoming the de-facto standard. This will enable all sorts of startups for the next decade.
3. Most iPhones now have a 3D scanner + AI-aided software to accurately scan your body and generate designs is becoming more mature. See also 2.
4. material sciences both new discoveries and new applications for 50 years old discoveries
- vladfr 3y agoBambu leaped by 5 months at most. Everyone has high speed options now, with Prusa being notably last to ship. Speed isn't the only important factor, don't feed the Boat race.
- samelawrence 3y agoCan you name some of the innovation happening in ICE vehicles? Just some terms I can search for would be appreciated. Thanks!

- dmbche 3y agoSouth Ameria has been using bio ethanol as a fuel for a while now, it's cheaper and uses crops, there are projects to bring that to North Amerixa and the rest of the world!
- ornornor 3y agoDoesn’t bio ethanol take more fossil fuel energy to create than it replaces?
- dmbche 3y agohttps://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethanol_fuel_in_Brazil https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethanol_fuel_in_Brazil I'm not very well versed in the subject but this should point you in the right direction!
- ornornor 3y ago> for average conditions one unit of fossil-fuel energy is required to create 8.3 energy units from the resulting ethanol It seems they’re in a unique position because sugar cane grows there, is used in industry, and the leftovers that aren’t usable for anything else can be turned into fuel. I had no idea Brazil has a unique bio ethanol industry, thanks for sharing.
