I mean the world is kind of in flames, if planes were as unreliable as most software is we'd have a hundred falling out of the skies every day. But the only reason it isn't worse, and I can't remember who the quote is from, is that the real Moore's law is the fact that talented hardware engineers keep improving hardware more quickly than software is getting slower.

There's an alternative world where everyone is performance oriented and those Rabbit devices don't run for five hours but for five days on modern batteries. Let's be real the thing is basically a Tamagochi, it should cost 50 bucks and run on chips from 2010.



> it should cost 50 bucks and run on chips from 2010.

If we're really honest it should run on Tamagotchi-era hardware.
