alt Hacker NewsNot sure which Dyson you recommended, but I understand where he’s coming from. I’ve considered going back to corded because the Dyson:
1. Doesn’t perform as well
2. Battery dies over time (fixable, but annoying)
I’m not willing to give up the lack of cord, but it’s not a clear cut upgrade and end result is a lesser product for some benefits that I could technically do without.
Lots of parallels to vibe coding, actually. I’m worried things are headed in the agentic direction because wealth is consolidating at the top and the rest of us will be left with whatever AI slops out. We won’t be able to afford quality.
Interesting. It was one of the most obvious purchases for me (I have the high end one).
It makes things SO much easier hassle free that I think other people who use the wired ones are strange.
Our houses are ~50m2-100m2 and the battery lasts at least 4 rounds of the house.
That's been my anecdotal evidence with almost every one I spoke to who has a Dyson or equivalent cordless.
