Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

have you ever done any kind of fine-detail repair on anything? electronics, something with tiny screws, fixing paint on a decal.. anything like that?

minority report floating holograms sure might be useful for this, “random-ass non specialised hardware shoved on your face” is decidedly more of a diceroll

I think he means repairs like washing machines, cars etc. It's all very well looking up videos or pics of how to repair stuff, but often the video isn't clear or fine quality enough

An overlaid graphic on whatever you were repairing would be fucking amazing for some of the stuff I do
