Loved the video. Also very annoyed with the general reception seen on HN like “well it was fun”. Unreal the authors had the audacity to add that last line proclaiming a new age for humankind. Even more unreal that news everywhere fell for it.
Paying an extra $200 for the H1 chip to be able to avoid professional audio companies and and their absolutely incompetent Bluetooth implementations is money well spent.
Many tech people have had very limited interaction with unions, and usually those interactions are negative.
For example, I was not allowed to run ethernet through the paneled ceiling to hard wire our conference rooms for the startup I was at.
Why? Well the building had a contract with a unionized cabling company so every cabling job in the building HAD to be done by them. We would have been charged thousands and had to wait weeks for a job I could do myself in 30 minutes.
