I like the idea, given IP as a moat to protect initial investment doesn’t really serve the purpose any more - evidence lots of innovative products now available as copies on Temu

I particularly like your expression of stewardship, it seems like maintenance and quality are two abundant failure points in this generation.

You could argue the Soviets already did this back in the day with reverse engineering western tech, and again, some Chinese manufacturing today.

How do we all feel about llm-crufted responses like this? Is it ok? The new normal? Costs of doing business? I can’t tell if I should be mad or not…

I’m with you on the first part but without pulling back the foreskin, achieving a laminar flow is difficult to impossible, further if you should have gotten there earlier, say between second and third litre of pepsi (no judgement) you’re wrestling with a firehose which is imho the worst possible outcome.

Not sure how we get to being better but talking about it has to be a good start. Thanks for sharing.

More useful than me for sure! I just looked at your history and found so many of the posts I clicked on in the past couple of weeks were yours so thanks for that!

Thanks for sharing!
