说明
这是2011年由TED发布的一部演讲,主题归在Manufacturing & industrial processes。它讲的是building from scratch这一支里的具体问题,而不是把整个领域扫一遍。适合按兴趣直接看、不打算先补课的人。内容上可以概括成:Designer Thomas Thwaites describes his attempt to build a toaster from scratch, from mining ore and deriving plastic from oil. It is a short TED talk on how much civilization a simple object depends on.这些读者给出的理由,核心是:HN uses it as the standard illustration of hidden complexity and supply-chain dependencies behind everyday objects.讲法不绑某一条新闻,过几年仍然可以当材料看。从2019年到2025年,有2位不同的读者在2个不同月份把它推荐出来,其中明确叫别人去看的有0次。适合一次性看完。讲者把一个判断讲透,演示是在给这个判断配例子。如果已经会了基本定义,就把注意力放在它怎么把building from scratch变成能跟着复述的例子。
