Interesting take on comparability vs performance. I gotta imaging capturing user data and sending to a cloud collector is also a big culprit.

Went down a bit of a rabbit hole here. Very interesting. Would love to see a Vsauce style video going into various real life examples of this

Thanks for sharing.

Cell phone batteries. Phones used to have shit batteries but they would last 3 days because the software running on it was minimal and the hardware was low power. Batteries have become way better in the last 20 years but phones don't even last a day because if all the hardware and software running super demanding and inefficient programs.

Part of that is just us using our phones more. If I used my smartphone the way I would use an old flip phone, the battery would probably last a few days
