Today, I got $20 bluetooh Mpow headphones. They sound better than cheap in-ear headphones I’ve always bought and are about the same price. On top of that they’re wireless. It’s amazing to me the amount of inputs that went into the product, the way I found out about the headphones from a social media post, and could order them online to have them arrive in a few days. All for $20.
It reminds me of a great post by Leonard Read called I, Pencil. The invisible hand is beautiful. And technology releases the capabilities of mass commerce at a scale never seen in human history.
It’s a great time to be alive.
