again, maybe emotional, maybe like the sort of romantic notions that people have about manufacturing versus the reality of the actual labor intensivity of some of these industries?

Yeah.

Presumably access to that needed energy at one point, right?

Sorry, just to be clear, covered.

You know, I know someone, I heard about, there's a startup in New York City that is doing something with like, I don't know exactly what it is.

I was hearing about it from a friend, but they're like training some NVIDIA chips or doing something.

And it's just with like a normal, like sort of like residential connection to the electricity, right?

It's not mega, but yeah, to your point, it does feel like the footprint, at least in some potentially niche applications, the footprints, you hear about the giant things, but the footprints are also potentially coming down.

Yeah, we all do.

You'll teach us how to order it.

This is like one of those things, like the politicians get a huge scandal, they order it the wrong way.

Like, you know, it was like John Kerry, like order it when you get like Swiss cheese instead of something else.

Yeah, it's our version, I guess, of the cheesesteak.

This is what makes America great.

These niche loyalties towards certain orders and certain hot dogs.

Yeah, no, totally.

It's actually apparently kind of depressing because those MakerBot festival or the MakerBot, I think is different than the Maker festivals, but there was that culture of

people doing tinkering and also the boom in 3d printing stocks remember that yeah yeah there was like a thing and it's like all sort of fizzled out but there was yeah there's like a forgotten part of like post gfc artisanal manufacturing manufacturing and people just building weird stuff things are not weird enough anymore but yeah i might get weird with ai no they're gonna get weird but i'm glad he brought that up because i i it doesn't get discussed enough

Just generally though, like I thought that was great.

And like, first of all, just learning a bunch of new things, you know, I hadn't heard of weight gaining manufacturing, but that makes a lot of sense, right?
