Hardware seems to be in pretty good shape now 🥳 Pi to arduino communication solid ROS can see lidar scan messages Encoder ticks from the wheels are good We ready to ✨attempt✨ SLAM 🗣️🗣️ Will need to get better wheels ofc and voice recognition still needs work so turn down your volume lol

I am really sorry to hear that, know that you do not deserve that and it’s completely unacceptable.

robotics will not explode like ChatGPT. robotics is a: 1. models problem (YC hivemind overindexes on this) 2. supply chain problem (china FTW) 3. infrastructure problem this means that the adoption curve will be a lot more gradual. my favourite robotics companies are that see the bigger picture.

there is no ChatGPT moment for robotics capability can skyrocket “overnight” but adoption is the long horizon all the opportunity belongs to those who can make adoption work. its a game of march of 9s (reliability), the last mile (deployment), and keeping it running (support).

Happy Pythagorean Theorem Day! 10/24/26 10² + 24² = 26² This is the last one we’ll experience in our lifetime.

But did you run a DFMEA on your relationship before committing to the design?

If your planner dies, your robot can keep executing the last command it received. That’s a problem in safety critical robotics systems. General code review models catch a lot, but they usually miss the robotics-specific safety stuff (stale commands, missing watchdogs, actuator limits, real-time bugs). So I built a Claude skill to check for those!! ⬇️ github.com/catplotlib/roboti…

Robotics has a scaling problem that language models skipped. With LLMs, more data and compute mostly just worked. With robots, a new embodiment or a new environment can break the previous scaling curve. How do you even define a scaling law when the physical world keeps changing the rules?
