Yeah, pretty much.

Yeah, pretty much.

Yeah, I didn't, I knew that you could cut LED light strips that like, you know, just were regular ones that don't have like individually addressable, you know, components. I figured, you know, because there's lots of LED light strips that are just like long strings of LEDs and they have little markings on where you can cut them and it's fine.

Yeah, but I didn't realize that that extended to the like addressable cool kind as well.

Yeah, I think I would side with the Historical Commission on this one.

Yeah, I think I would side with the Historical Commission on this one.

I recommend that path. Yes.

I recommend that path. Yes.

Anyway, I mean, you are talking about Germany, like maybe literally all of their counters are exactly the same size and shape. Like there's no other place that I would think that's a possibility. But in Germany, maybe. I don't know.

essentially get the same result but doing way less work and apparently they did yeah and i think you know we we've been in a pretty long span of technology you know companies and technology stocks and technology earnings and profits being pretty mature until very until you know the big llm and ai boom of the last couple of years

And I think it was easy for us to assume that the technology industry is stable now. But in the past, there have been periods where the tech industry was not so stable. There were big boom times. There were big technological changes. Obviously, the birth of the personal computer was a pretty big deal, shook a lot of stuff up.

Then later on, the internet for home users really shook a lot of stuff up. You know, the consumer web came on with, you know, e-commerce that shook a lot of stuff up. And, you know, then mobile happened and that shook a lot of stuff up.

Yeah, and I think the LLM-based AI phase, I mean, I guess we're just calling it AI now, so I'm going to stop saying LLMs even though it's more correct, but whatever. So the AI era is upon us now, and all these things that have been stable are suddenly not so stable. It does create bubble dynamics. Bubbles do burst.
