Can dang do something about the corporate spam that keeps popping up on HN? I don't think meta, or Apple, or the rest of these companies need help advertising products.

#13Any good argument that anyone can think of for a scenario where smart eyewear will not be as ubiquitous as smart phones eventually? I understand the privacy argument, but that is not going to be enough. The ability to think or blink in a certain way and capture anything you see is too powerful a tool, alongside the augmented reality that is coming.
Nah, I think it's the future. We don't have to have cameras on them, but it does greatly hinder their utility.

#14Is there a market for this? Stealth smart glasses that force you to indicate you are recording? Are live-streamers going to use this? Don't people want to be using their phone anyway? >The Capture LED lets others know when you’re capturing content or going live. If the LED is covered, you’ll be notified to clear it.
for sure - ppl are strapping go pros to their heads.

#15Why when I press accept cookies it just reloads the website and shows me the same banner? Not even Facebook can get this to work?

Indeed. The tech is impressive but the the unintended consequences make me very uneasy.

#18I'm not interested in this particular device, but after almost being hit by cars several times this month while walking my dog, I am starting to warm to the idea of some form of "dash cam" for walking.

After three tries it loaded the right page. Disgusting pattern, IMHO
