Has anyone tried to turn this into a "product or experience" of sorts, and care to share their experience in doing so?

Considering a hardware robotics startup right now. Can you expand on this : All the "user friendly" gimmicks are just obstacles in their way.

And what were some of your other conclusions having worked on an arm solution?

The lab i works had had a rethink robot for research purposes. It seem to be part of a wave of consumer-facing robots that have all since folded. With the exception of Waymo, DJI, and skydio. You have to remember at the time eveyone was searching for the next big computing platform, and it wasn’t that clear the iPhone would be it. After the iPhone succeeded, hardware investors became even more convinced, especially when money was cheap.

Has anyone heard of this launch will be associated with a launch of an SDK for app developers as well?

The same shifting criteria were applied to Jews. In the early 1900s proficiency in Latin was required because only prep school offered Latin, so it was an implied filter that’s nonetheless “impartial”. Then Jews became very good at Latin, so the ivies phased out Latin as a criteria and began admitting talent from the interior, because Jews did not settle there. So this whole game is applies to Asian Americans now, not at all surprising

Writing a full CRUD todo app on both web and iOS helped me understand things a lot better. The most important thing is to keep it simple, and by going across platforms you can see the importance of good data representation design.

The idea is to start off by making bad decisions, and slowly refactoring your way to good abstraction, this helps you intuit the reason for abstractions.

I concur. The person in the lawsuit Beth winkelstein is an absolute academic bully, eveyone who has ever come across her knows it. It just goes to show how little accountability there is in the University.

A movie express this exact scenario: https://m.imdb.com/title/tt1821641/

The funny thing is that th book it’s based on satirizes the falsehood of Soviet communism, the movie satirizes the falsehood of consumer culture as an opioid.
