VCs, historically, don't understand this. Arduino did, but they've likely ceded some control by doing this fundraising. Maybe these VCs are different. I'm not counting on it.

The idea you're looking for is the paradox of tolerance, and a solution to it is that by engaging in intolerance, one has broken a social contract, and thus no longer benefits from it, and others can be intolerant to them without viola

With risk of dipping into politics, this is somewhat standard in the Indiana political landscape. Ignore externalities to get a quick buck, then complain when the externalities have consequences. Been happening for years, won't get bet

Nvidia is the pickaxe seller in a gold rush. Their valuation is very much tied to how big AI grows in the next several years, and how quickly competitors can arise. I could easily see them continuing to go up from here, especially if AI kee

Seems like a useful trick for any existing manufacturer: Any defects that still mostly function could be sold to South Africa instead of being broken back down for parts.

A 10% increase in reaction time could be fairly significant in many sports. Could we start seeing football players, sprinters, or baseball players breathing from masks between plays?

It is documented fairly poorly in the South Korean paper. Not atrociously poorly, but enough that there's a fair bit of ambiguity, and several top labs have failed to replicate for this reason. When replication is this difficult, hundr

The worst part is that sometimes less price conscious customers will also get tempted in, because they're the only ones trying to push fridge features forward. The 'beverage center' door with a 64oz pitcher that gets refilled

I'm surprised 3d printing a part with a titanium printer, then finishing the surfaces (likely with extra sanding) is faster/cheaper than cnc machining the part from a block of titanium. They must be making some difficult-to-machin

55” regularly goes for around $1100, which is only mildly pricey for a 4k QLED premium panel. Bonus for the mount being included, and the external input controller.
