Reply to comment by Nobel6skull in HoloLens AR actually makes soldiers less lethal, soldiers hate it | Report comes after Microsoft lays off various VR/AR employees by BlueLightStruct

Man, I'm baffled about how little perspective people on Reddit have. They're always complaining about AR/VR, AI, game streaming and stuff as if tech don't always get faster, lighter and cheaper over time

There's stuff that are dumb conceptually, like blockchain, but that's a different talk

Hardware surely is the responsible for tech getting faster. But there are many kinds of software, what Meta did with the Quest is amazing when you think of the amount of sensors that thing has processing all the time. Wirth's Law is really felt on web stuff and other enduser applications
