Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
Rogan will be one of the first to jump into live-streaming podcasts in VR. Itβll be amazing.
I linked the timestamped part but in case it doesn't work, it starts at 1:07:23.
I'm glad Joe talked about how consumer tech isn't behind what governments/the military have. Too often I hear people say they think the government is hiding tech that is 10 years into the future when everything from display tech to chip fabrication gets so much R&D money from corporations that a government could not hope to compete (and there would be no point as they can buy the consumer tech cheaply).
He mentioned space, and that too is a field where the private sector is way more advanced than anything else. Look at SpaceX for example. The US government didn't want to spend the money and time required for reusable rockets (and no other government has either) but instead they (partly) enabled SpaceX to do it themselves by giving them launch contracts that secured enough money to keep them going. In return, they got cheap access to the best rockets in the world for a tiny fraction of what it would've cost a government-run project.
Always nice to see some critical thinking at work
Edit:
While I could have expressed myself more clearly, my main point was that people think governments are hiding better tech that we don't even know exists (because conspiracy theories are popular in the age of misinformation). I was more so talking about "known" or "available" tech than "consumer" tech.
The first version of the Valve Index killed someone. That's why it got pushed from June 15th to the 28th.
Edit: I guess I need to add the /s because no one watched the video.
Yea, yup.
