I love this!: “… the smart engineers, they want to build better toasters, they want to touch actual stuff.”

Thank goodness! 😅
Not so many months ago I had to ask what a ‘computer toucher’ was… naïvely, I had no idea the gap between ‘touching’ - some might call it *real* life - & ‘non-touching’ was so wide (non-touching: like marketing, finance, risk manuals, so-called ‘compliance’ tick & flicks, advertising, influencing, fake reviews, branding, logos, etc etc & so on).

Now I want to know: what is the overhead of these non-touching bits? 🤔 What’s the proportion of touchers to non-touchers? In personnel numbers & expenditures? 🤔

Getting a handle on some basic info could be helpful…

Do you even toast, bro?

There are at least two FPPs this week where toasters have come up. The overwhelming consensus seems to be that everyone loves-2-toast but no one likes their toaster.

First world problems: we’ve bought two #toasters this year and they are both crap, despite the positive reviews. All I want is a toaster that can handle any height of bread and not yoyo between warm bread and burned briquettes. It’s such a dumb problem, but it’s annoying me daily.
