I'm shocked EZ Squirt was a failure. I used so much green ketchup in Middle School. I thought it was a game changer for the ketchup world.

Absolutely. My two interactions with Glass was (1) seeing a dude wearing it at a friend’s wedding. At first I was like “whoa, cool!” Then I realized he just looked kind of douchey for some reason. This could’ve been fixed with better hardware design.
(2) A worker had them and I got to try it on. Again, “whoa, cool!” until ultimately I realized how there wasn’t really anything it was adding. This could’ve been fixed with a more robust app infrastructure.

Ah yeah, that’s a good point. I do remember that was what effectively killed them.

Because there is a very limited amount of airwave space and you wouldn't want the "wrong people" seizing those spots.

I too wonder the cost of any of your pieces, not even sure if it’s even affordable for most of us to contemplate suck beauty in our homes.

They should make it interactive in the focus group-esque way.
It reminds me of this scene from the Silicon Valley TV show: https://youtu.be/Sx1J3S6vUJ8

Agreed! I love joining those focus groups.
There's a site called UTest that actually pays you to try out company products or apps, and be a part of that whole development process.
I was selected for a couple, but it's nothing crazy like in the movies/TV shows where you go in a room with a 1-way window, everyone's sitting in a circle, and are asked those questions haha - it's entirely remote (at least the ones I did).
Aka. It's not like this: https://youtu.be/Sx1J3S6vUJ8

As long as they know everyone will blindly vote Dem or as Nancy put it,” a glass of water with a D next to it”, nothing will change. Identity politics has ruined our country. CMV.

They made direct lightning cable ones, but agreed - you can't charge and listen to music at the same time.
I still occasionally see people in NYC walk around with wired Apple in-ear headphones (the old/classic one) and I think it's either they're on calls for a majority of their day (battery degradation) or they're worried about getting bumped or tripping and having an AirPod fall down the sidewalk grates.
Or ear shape. Mine fit pretty well, but I'm sure if some big guy is running/hustling and hits me, it'll go flying and then I won't use it until I can clean it - don't want an ear infection from something on NYC streets haha.

We have him to thank for all of the community gardens in the LES/ Alphabet city.... without him trying to demolish them and sell them off to his real estate buddies they prob wouldnt have been codified and kept as important green spaces.
