That’s a movie though, not work. And taking it off for a lunch or snack break, does the user feel sore putting it back on? Is the 3rd or 4th session of the day so uncomfortable as to be limiting for an 8 hour work day?

Why I’m asking, feels a bit like the old iPad / desktop shorthand on consumption vs creation. I liked one review that compared Vision Pro to a highend TV, but not convinced it’s worth more than that.

Consider the difference in tribes that you’ve felt really apart of and those you haven’t or are new to. That’s the natural part - we are wary of strangers. Being part of tribes helps encourage social interactions based on shared contacts, h

I’m still surprised that D’Angelo didn’t get as much scrutiny in the OpenAI mess, especially as the only board member still in place. Seems obvious in hindsight that Quora continuing to fail can only be saved by leveraging as training data

Why put so much emphasis on FaceTime and other video calls? Seems like that’s a great opportunity to take the thing off and have a conversation. EyeSight too could be marketed more like glances than a full on experience.

Organic seems to sell well, but often just as tasteless. I bet the market would recognize something like a terroir label which designate the value of taste. The price of apples for instance seems to reflect this already, the pricier ones do

I’ve loved the concept of terrior since first hearing it: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terroir Seems to not only explain crops and tastes but also more abstractly people, and the differences in outcomes by zip cod

Claudia Goldin won the 2023 Nobel for showing how women choosing flexibility in their work is the main driver of pay disparities, so much so that men suffer the financial penalties too when they choose flexibility. https://www.no

What is human level AI? Is it beating world champions at chess or go? Designing new molecules or drugs? Navigating automobiles down streets or spacecraft to planets? Diagnosing or treating common diseases? These debates are frankly tiresome

As an example, my cellular provider gives a discount assuming I’ll be BYOD for the next three years. I’m really curious if I can make it past those three years. It would mean my phone is 5 years old at that point.
