  1. "precision" in stamped sheet metal and routed wood lol Handmade stuff will literally have better fit and finish. It takes time while a machine does it in seconds. You can't outfit a whole IKEA store with your models but they'll probably better built. I have IKEA furniture. It's useful and practical, but fragile. If the back panel of my shoe drawers were any thinner, they'd be cardboard.

  2.  @milesrout  I wouldn't trust New Zealand with my future because it seems to be going the nanny state route and it's the billionaires' backup plan.

  3. ​ @jonathanwarner1844  People mill their own custom boards and solder the components. I guess 3d printed wouldn't be that bad if you're waiting on a tabletop cnc router to mill every board, but one can straight up make metal cases by pressing metal with a hydraulic press. Patents? We don't need patents where we're going. But for real, most digital camera patents are probably expired by now unless you're stepping on some relatively new toes like compliant mechanisms being used as accelerators to force calculate a stabilized photo out of a burst or something that's only 7-5 years old. Plus, patents are part of the problem. The concept of intellectual property went too far. I get it. Someone still needs to make the copper covered plastic and spools of solder, and the capacitors and whatnot even if he was recording on a homemade camera. And the SD card? Yeah nobody's making those in their garage. But is his point invalidated by the fact that "no man is an island"? A lot of modern tech empires were built by a small team of nerds in a garage. Things always have a way of getting done. If there's people less dependent on the system, there's more relative demand for labor.

  4. That's a cheap jab. Apart from the sensor and microchips most components on a camera can be produced locally.
