How have the Fairbuds XL been for you? Have you used any other similar headphones before Fairbuds (asking for your comparison). I love my Airpod Maxes but I have spend way too much money and time keeping this thing maintained. Once it final

Maybe 'negative lived experience' is a better word? Im trying to describe an uncomfortable situation during their upbringing that has imprinted an aversion to that style in their minds.

I don't know about others...but thats just home ownership or life in general ha ha Life is a series of maintenance tasks + a few moments of rest and happiness followed by death. I think millenials like minimalism for many reasons but s

Maybe thats better in the long run. The Cold War kept the US more on its toes and that benefited the world. We have another situation where dumb decisions the US makes will have a faster feedback loop.

Your intro contradicts your conclusion and thats why I think this story isn't as clear cut as you make it. The US gained that reputation because of trust . China does not magically have that same trust. The relationships that countrie

Nothing is really replacing this elsewhere though (although I do concede China is trying hard). Lets start with movies: Most top grossing movies are still American based and centric. I was reminded of this recently when Obsession came out a

Yes I am very familiar with auto automation. They are amazing. Tesla went so overboard that maybe the ROI isn't even there for some processes (installing wheels on a car by industrial robot? They repeated the mistakes GM made in the 70

Eh every house has elements of this and everyone learns the hard way. After struggling to install a new bathroom exhaust fan a few years ago in a house that was half built by someone 80 years ago and half completely redone by my late father

Factory workers maybe but all processes have to be redesigned with design for robotic automation in mind. That will displace a lot of people and they will naturally go into the trades since the skills translate more easily so while I agree

Boston Dynamics has been at the game for a LONG time (1992 vs Unitree's 2016). During that time they slogged through a lot of fundamental work that from the outside looked like 0 but thats the thing about tech, it starts at 0.01% then

All Chinese companies are 996 companies and any that arent will eventually be replaced by a 996 company. Again vast oversupply of STEM labor serves as a forcing function(but is not the only reason).

Chinese work ethic driven by overproduction of STEM majors leading to 25% youth unemployment...also they probably stole a lot of the fundamental stuff that was super hard to produce but easy to copy and build on top of. On the other side: Y

It remains to be seen if this will stick. The jury is still out: In favor of this: US is having trouble projecting its desires onto others now. Its citizens are not in a good spot, hyper concentration of wealth and a growing distrust in the

The UK empire is considered by many to have ended in 1947 with the independence of India. Others say it was finally finished in 1997 with Hong Kong. Either way the UK is still around and while things aren't rosy, they still trudge alon
