Hopefully this is simply a rebranding to allow code and robotics into any line of Lego set. The market for simple Lego robots can only grow over time as they continue to drop in cost.

Any sort of regulation around web accessibility is so much more nuanced than building a ramp up to a restaurant, having the right clearance under a sink, or offering braille menus. It's orders of magnitude more complex in scale and req

So cool! Don't forget the inconsistent launch out of the scoop! :)

This is awesome! Do you know if any of these simulators emulate wear and tear on the table? I feel like the lack of variability in the table is why they've all felt like playing in the uncanny valley to me.

I don't think Apple is marketing it as heavily as you think at replacing Workplace laptops, but moreso consumer laptops. iPad is a delightfully simple device for consuming any kind of media, editing photos and videos, light to medium g

Either way, all of those costs are as cheap today as they ever will be.

Cost goes down and ROI only goes up, exponentially over time. VR is currently as expensive today as it ever will be.

90% of professional work is done in an IDE...? There are many other professions besides programming.

In recent interviews with Zuck he talks about important body language is. From their research, they found you can get really far with only face, posture, and hand reproduction (hence why Meta avatars have no legs) It's early days, but

It's literally the same thing. The market for hardware in corporate telephony and video conferencing is massive. Think headsets, massive screens, Teams/Zoom rooms, special phones, etc etc.

Most of these designs are an inevitability. Every Sci fi universe has some kind of Metaverse experience - all pointing generally in the same direction as they try to answer, "what would people do in a world with no limits?"

Why would being in VR make you stuck? You can still miltitask

Maybe not by Meta, but it's an inevitability, as consumers want it and are willing to pay for it.

But the iPhone didn't replace that stuff. There's still so much software and infrastructure involved. For example, you can't do video conferencing on 3G. The iPhone didn't bring with it 4G LTE

The iPhone analogy is a bit of a stretch. I'm not sure what "millions of equipment" it replaced. If you're referring to software, the PC or Blackberry was already accessible to those who weren't ultra-rich. As for t

Unbearably loud. No chance these will ever fly in a city.
