Watching engineering videos and "how it's made"s leaves me in awe of how much humanity has achieved. It's appalling that we let blind marketplaces be the stewards of this power. It's honestly squandered. People are capable of so much, and yet we have almost no safeguards or redundancies to preserve it.
How much know-how and infrastructure is going to dissolve, simply because there's no money in making industrialization work long term? Hell, how much ingenuity is locked away, quietly molding under 'intellectual property'?
They skip over, but not every time. it’s interesting, like sometimes collecting stuff in boxes is done by hand, but in next one some machine will do it, I’m always left slightly surprised, it seems so arbitrary in context.

How good are screws??
I feel this so much.
Also fuck anprims.
As someone who has to take medicine everyday, I couldn't agree more
Technology Good.
I find the most interesting parts where the sudden transitions to human labor occur and the state of the machines
That's always the bit those docs skip over :(
"Here's the point of human labor, watch the little peon sweat for 0.5s while we set up the next transition."

please watch Stuff Made Here, his projects are some of the coolest I've seen on youtube
