Roboticist at @zipline (all views my own!). Into neuroscience and the depths of the universe, but also consumer tech and @Arsenal. Obsessed with cringe humor.

And now @Delta has cancelled the flight after 4 hours of misinformation. No one will take responsibility at the airport. Huge line at the help desk.

@Delta, terrible experience today aboard DL667. We were told a luggage retainer net snapped and needed repairs. This led to a cascade of weather delays, losing our spot for takeoff from JFK and now we're heading back to the gate at JFK having spent 3 hours in the plane already.

[Rohit Sant @SantFeed]

Why do you still keep flying these old 757s that seemingly always need maintenance? We could have avoided all the delays if the belt repair hadn't been needed.

Power lines? No problem! With tiny thrusters, the zip dodges obstacles as it descends down to your backyard to deliver to tight spaces.

Ultimately we aim to deliver to any point a human could stand on and see sky above.

@Delta 9.5 hours later, we’re - surprise! - still at @JFKairport! Now we’re being told it’s the catering that’s holding things up. Sheesh, @Delta

[Rohit Sant @SantFeed]

@Delta maybe nobody monitors your

And now we’re told our window to take off is closed, and we’re headed back to our gate. What a disaster @Delta

More likely the Vision Air for the mass market I suppose

in 2030, Apple Vision Pro (7 or whatever edition it's on) will likely be the only computing device people own

@hubermanlab This was a great episode, very practical while providing meta commentary on there being no free lunches in life haha

@sama Joke writes itself?

[Rohit Sant @SantFeed]

@AdamMGrant A great example of this principle is VCs funding a team / founder even before they have a specific idea - they’re betting on exactly this potential.

@shaneparrish In my experience the act of writing also helps with memory; you're playing with ideas and thoughts from various angles before compression, and (i believe) this helps your brain store it better for the long term. Curious if @davideagleman's got thoughts here.

@eldsjal Meet people IRL instead of through online apps

@AndroidPolice The one that started our streaming and casting revolution. A rare example of a Google consumer product done right!

@tferriss as a roboticist interested in expanding my horizons, I'm a big fan of your show and I love your ability to hold a conversation with all sorts of experts. I'm visiting ATX this week, any chance you're doing a public appearance? (or down to grab coffee?)
