"the expensive part of premium isn't the material. it's the chamfer radius you barely notice. clean edge breaks require tight tolerances. tight tolerances require better tooling. better tooling costs real money and slows production. i've held two versions of the same product. one with careful radius work one without. the difference is invisible in photos but immediate in your hand. that's where "premium feel" actually lives. in manufacturing decisions most customers will never see"

"engineers who optimize designs for minimum material usage while ignoring manufacturing complexity are just shifting costs around saving $0.50 in aluminum while adding $50 in machining time isn't optimization. material costs are usually 10-20% of total manufacturing cost. optimize for total cost not spreadsheet line items"

"What's the best healthy meal plan to buy I've tried Factor but I feel like it's not healthy enough and the servings are too small. I've tried Thistle but it doesn't really come with meat and I like eating meat so I usually have to buy my own tofu and protein and mix it in. I've tried Hello Fresh but it takes too much effort to cook it. I've also tried Factor but I don't like the glass jars that come with it; it's way too many glass jars.

"the wall thickness problem in plastic parts isn't about knowledge it's about fear. designers know sink marks look bad. they don't always know how ribs actually work under load or in the mold. so they thicken everything and call it safe. but thick walls warp more cool slower and hide the real issue: you're using material as a bandaid for missing structural understanding. i learned this after watching a 2mm wall with good ribbing outperform a 4mm wall that looked "safer" on paper. https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2016920520265019649 https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2016920520265019649"

"the expensive part of premium isn't the material. it's the chamfer radius you barely notice. clean edge breaks require tight tolerances. tight tolerances require better tooling. better tooling costs real money and slows production. i've held two versions of the same product. one with careful radius work one without. the difference is invisible in photos but immediate in your hand. that's where "premium feel" actually lives. in manufacturing decisions most customers will never see"

"What's the best healthy meal plan to buy I've tried Factor but I feel like it's not healthy enough and the servings are too small. I've tried Thistle but it doesn't really come with meat and I like eating meat so I usually have to buy my own tofu and protein and mix it in. I've tried Hello Fresh but it takes too much effort to cook it. I've also tried Factor but I don't like the glass jars that come with it; it's way too many glass jars. Does anyone have any good recommendations and also the price I would prefer to be pretty reasonable as well"

"byd beating tesla is about people incentives and systems. china has millions of engineers who expect to work on physical systems not just software abstractions. theyre fluent in batteries power electronics manufacturing constraints and iteration at scale. that talent density compounds. hardware software supply chain and cost engineering move together instead of living in silos. tesla builds cars in fremont austin berlin and shanghai which sounds global and impressive. but byds edge isnt where factories exist its how tightly coupled everything is. most of byds manufacturing lives inside chinas"

"i think being easily convinced depends entirely on what you're optimizing for. if you're exploring it's a strength. you move fast test ideas learn by trying things on. if you're executing it's a weakness. you need conviction to push through resistance and setbacks. the problem is most of us are doing both at the same time. exploring in some areas executing in others. and we don't always label which mode we're in. i got better when i started naming it. this is an exploration. i'm open to being moved. or: this is execution. i've already decided now i'm dealing with the consequences. the skill"

"the first consumer plastics were luxury goods not cheap alternatives. celluloid was "artificial ivory" for the wealthy. bakelite jewelry was displayed like gemstones. what's interesting isn't that they were expensive. it's that we culturally demoted an entire class of materials from precious to disposable in less than fifty years. the capability to mass produce something changed how we valued it even when the thing itself stayed useful. https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2015470968521560127 https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2015470968521560127"

"the wall thickness problem in plastic parts isn't about knowledge it's about fear. designers know sink marks look bad. they don't always know how ribs actually work under load or in the mold. so they thicken everything and call it safe. but thick walls warp more cool slower and hide the real issue: you're using material as a bandaid for missing structural understanding. i learned this after watching a 2mm wall with good ribbing outperform a 4mm wall that looked "safer" on paper. https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2016920520265019649 https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2016920520265019649"
