Hot take: Following robot breakthroughs feels like watching paint dry

Tbh, I've been hooked on robotics news since college. I remember getting amped about early stories on self-driving cars. Fast forward to today, and every big announcement still feels years from real use. Just saw a piece on a new assembly line bot that took forever to program. Honestly, it's tough to keep faith when each step forward is so tiny. I'm curious if anyone else feels this wait is draining. How do you stay patient with the slow crawl of robot tech?

I finally admitted that manual screwdrivers beat power drills for most small jobs

Thinking back, we used to take our time with hand tools and it made each project feel personal. Now, I see folks rushing with drills on everything, even when a simple screwdriver would do better. I think power tools often lead to stripped screws and less care in the work. Why not slow down and enjoy the process a bit more?
