- Replying to @cameron62sI 'identify' as a guy that makes stuff, which is probably a smaller minority than LGBTQ's in America at this point.
- Behind the story of the modern limbed robotics configuration is an American actuator design ripped off by china. Ben Katz and the MIT biomimetics lab

04:50Autonomous robot dishwasher (ARD1) does four plates in one go fully on its own - notices the tap is still on after picking the third plate and leaves it - fumbles a bit with placing on rack and third plate needs more cleaning but getting there #robots #robotics #AI #deeplearning - YC is now requesting ppl focus on - robotics - manufacturing in US - defend tech The world is changing, our Berkeley Skydeck accelerator tried to get us to pivot to b2b SAAS [derogatory] every week ๐The world is full of founders with expertise that could be tapped into something new and great. Our hope is that our Request for Startups (RFS) inspires some of those people to do so โ or if theyโre already building, to apply to YC. ycombinator.com/blog/ycs-latesโฆ

- Everyone thinks metal printing enabled this, but actually castings did. There are more castings than printed parts on raptor 3
- Whoโs building the robots? Whoโs running the factories? The advent of the tractor was not an excuse to export our farms elsewhereGuys, any factories theoretically moved back to the US are going to be filled by robots anyway.
