Hi Patrick, in this instance you would be incorrect in the claims that Deleteme "forces" companies to delete your data, its just not true. Data deletion requests are not an absolute right of the data subject and companies maintain a great number of reasons to refuse the request and continue to retain your data

I never needed an app to simply buy groceries in Lidl. But now they force me to have it, by introducing discounts and vouchers available only on that app. It's not obnoxiously intrusive, all I need to do is to whip out the phone and scan it near cash register. But I'm not comfortable with this. Without this app I will pay at least 10% more for basic groceries. With it my personal information is being farmed and thrown around everywhere, to any advertisers they have contracts with. It could be like 800 third parties. Lidl is a massive corporation. No wonder I'm getting a ton of spam calls from call-centres and spam e-mail. It's like I NEED burner e-mails and burner phone numbers now, even though I'm not a criminal. I need them registered with made-up, fake information and just dump these fucking IoT applications in there, where I don't care about the spam and data mining.

Without reading more into it, I would guess the patent was on the method for calculating surge pricing.

It's entirely possible that it used lots of data and lots of work to come up with a usable model.

You know, making labels is hard. You have to like, cut up a piece of paper, write on it by hand, then use tape to stick it to something. What if we had the Printinator, a new revolutionary device that can print whatever you want on little sticky strips of paper. Then you can use our app (which requires an internet connection to the cloud to function) on your phone to connect to the device and print labels. And as part of the subscription bundle (required to use the app) we'll ship you a roll of sticky strips of paper for your device and the ink cartridge for it as well once a month. Please forget that label makers exist!

To be fair, there are some things where designs could probably be improved that we just...take for granted because they worked. Like how for the longest time can openers created jagged edges on the can 'lid', and now newer openers break the seal instead of biting into the metal-so that not only are there no jagged edges but the can can technically be reused. That said, most innovation in everyday objects has already been made since we...you know, use them every day.

Segways are another good example of what the whole video is demonstrating: tech in search of a use. If you ask "Why don't more people use bicycles?" the top answers are "Too far, no protection from weather, limited baggage, and you have to park it somewhere." Segway solved none of those. It was a work around for those with physical limitations, but came with the baggage of being more expensive and needing to charge. They did however rethink what suburban middle-class 6-year-olds want as a toy. Hoverboards still sell quite well.

Ha! Exactly! I worked for Organic around 2000. We had all of these new tech startups wanting websites. One was a barter website where you would list stuff or inventory you had and you could barter to exchange (100,000 pens, for a fax machine, or whatever). No one remembers Econ 101 where people stopped bartering thousands of years ago and started carrying tokens because bartering is so inefficient. But, to your point, you would think "smart" people would pay to not get screwed. But, on the off chance something works that the "old people" don't get (and to be fair, I would not have worked at a company named Yahoo), people seem very willing to toss way many millions for the chance at the next Google or Facebook.

I finished the first variety pack I bought, and then ordered a second smaller one, thinking it might be better. It was not.

I have a friend who got a hydrate spark as a Christmas gift a few years ago. She said it actually was helpful at first, because she has ADHD and she can get so focused on her current task she would go 6-8 hours without drinking any water. The bottle flashing helped her remember to actually drink something. There is a way to manually add extra beverages like juice or water from other sources. It helped with her disability… until she got used to the flashing and started ignoring it. She decided to just get a bigger water bottle (the spark was very small) and set an alarm on her phone instead.

Ironically, a military is like the only scenario in which logging the hydration levels of thousands of people might actually be useful. If a general knew when their soldiers were dehydrated, that would actually help. Of course that would require tracking more than water intake, you'd have to track sweat, but you get my point. If you know when you are thirsty, you know when to drink. If your thirst is logged, water supply logistics can be better managed for large numbers of people.

But if your main point is that money is the root of all evil, you should quickly develop an app for it because the idea goes back at least 2000 years.

"How will the bottle know how hydrated you are if you drink out of a different container?" This is where the Neuralink chip becomes an indispensable consumer good! Techbro-ing isn't about inventing actual things per se so much as creating a hype bubble around the *possibility* of doing so. Then you sell to VC or do an IPO and walk away with a bunch of other people's money without ever actually producing anything but the original hype. They are truly a class of genius that has ascended to higher level of humanity. We should not only be grateful for their benevolent labors, we should just put them in charge of everything. Balaji Srinivasan's ideas will lead us to human utopia.

Today I went to a venue to quote for a pa hire job for an event. I noticed that they had a couple of powered speakers set up, and they were on, even though the venue was empty. I asked why they were switched on, and was told that they were connected via the Internet to a timer to maximise efficiency. I pointed out that the speakers had an off switch, so they could just switch them on when they were needed, which would be far more efficient. This seemed like an alien concept to them

There's an episode of Pinky and the Brain where Brain takes out a huge loan to build a casino. He adamantly insists that even the internal lumber that nobody will see must be made of high-quality mahogany instead of normal lumber. He insists that the main attraction be the one game he likes. He explodes the budget and only manages to make the casino work by giving in on the demand for the games people actually want. The Juicero is this episode, but for a product even more overengineered than load-bearing mahogany, less popular than an unfun game in a casino, and without the final concession. It's crazy to me that it happened in real life.

Nice video but you forgot the most recent tech bro product to gain public attention: the self-cleaning robotic litter box that also happens to brutally kill your cat and mutilate its corpse. In the before times, this would have been considered a disaster, but in our more enlightened age, we now recognize that there's no such thing as bad publicity and that it is, all things considered, more convenient than letting an aspiring serial killer into your home to do that sort of thing.

To be fair it's way harder to produce something new and get enough money to immediately scale to the point where you can sustainably produce enough product at a competitively low price. Selling to rich people to make money and maybe later scale up to lower prices is usually the more successful way to go about it.
