They should have open sourced the platform. This would generate more hardware makers to jump in and improve hardware part, bring to market cheaper as well as more high end devices and so on. It would also accelerate building apps for the pl

It's not the same thing. Each of these products have tiered versions targeted at different income levels. If there was only one iPhone version being sold at $1500 then it would probably be dead by now.

HoloLens had same price point and this price point is where consumer products go to die. I think they are currently looking for early adopters and may be built up volume in 2-3 years (a la iPhone). HoloLens hade strategy which didn't w

Charging infrastructure is the main blocker for adoption. Instead of giving tax credits for EV, government should fund the charging infrastructure. There are 168k gas stations in US. The number of EV charging outlets is 128k. Unfortunately

Anyone buying house all cash even at these high rates are financially illiterate or just dumb.

Economists need to figure out how people are buying these expensive houses. I work in big tech and probably in 1-2% and I am still priced out of market even outside of CA. How do other people not in big tech do it? My guess is that most peo

You don't have to wait for bottom. Any time rates come down by say 30%, you refinance. You keep doing it so eventually you settle into 2-3% regim.

I don't think you should ever buy home all-cash. That would be financially stupid move. Even at 6% rates, you can get far better return on your capital on long term basis (>15 yrs). Additionally, you can always refinance later whene

Can't you buy now at high APR and then refinance later? I would think these large rates would not last more than 2-3 years. You will take some hit for short period but also might get better deal as there are not a lot of buyers. After

HUDs are the small part of the story. far more important thing is what sensors you have access to and what can you control? Car manufactures are notoriously behind and bad on properly expanding and standardizing both sensors and controls. S

I hate these kind of articles padded with so much fluff that you can’t find the real point the author is making. In any case, I used to think about trillion human in solar system vision and believe in it. No more. Humans are simply not desi

How does these avoid optical constraints? I thought it was not possible to design lenses in such small space that would project image 2-3 ft away at least.

Content and data are not advantage. Creators can simply re-upload their content to Insta/YouTube to increase their revenues. It's already happening. It will accelerate if Insta/YouTube provides right incentives.

YouTube is plagued by unnecessarily padded content because I believe creators were rewarded depending on how much time they spent watching their videos (and hence number of ads that can be shown). Vast majority of YouTube videos I come acro

This is an issue that is killing FB/Insta and I am not sure why nobody in Meta seems to get this. Apps attract people with certain expectations and mindset. When I want to login to FB/Insta, I want to see posts from people I know

TLDR; Human wants and needs are two different things. If you only measure things like click throughs, you may end up measuring "wants" and therefore risk long term dissatisfaction as "needs" are not met. So the idea here

TLDR; At fundamental level, the idea is that most VMs don't change much to their large images so you can lazily only work with diffs. The copy-on-write allows blocks of your new file points to blocks of original and maintain diff of bl

Brian Kernighan is 80 years old. Donald Knuth is 84 years. Both still write code and avoid most social/non-social media in general. It's amazing given how often we get surrounded by people giving up coding at rather young age for
