I think that's the best advice I could give before somebody says, want to go and build hardware. There are many little tiny startups that have YouTube videos or videos that have amazing wonderful devices and you go, but what is it solving? Is it practical? Are you solving a problem? It's because they did the shortcut. They said, I'm going build something that looks cool. Great, go build it, but you're not really solving the thing. You need to go and immerse yourself, get insight. And that's why we have everybody here at the company work at the warehouse with our customers. So when they come and build a solution, they build it as a warehouse operator. They go, Oh, I'm a warehouse operator who happens to know how to build applications, how to build robotics, know, here's how I would build it for me. That's the best way to build products. I mean, if you

[00:30:15] S8: look across the tech spectrum, most companies and, you know, Andreessen's famous quote, software will basically eat the world, is very true. I think, you know, when you look at the economy, you realize that 85% of the economy or GDP is driven by physical industries, physical problems. 90% of the value in the tech economy has been created by mostly software. There's a huge discrepancy. So when we look at the problems yet to be solved that haven't really been touched by software, they all involve some sort of actuation or manipulation of the physical world. IOT, Internet of Things, has been around for a few decades, and that starts to solve some of the problems around hardware. It gives you signal back from the physical environment into some sort of grain or software. But ultimately the actuation of that requires people or something else. But when you think of robotics as applied to the physical world, that closes the loop. Like, I can build an actuator, a thing to move a physical item up, down, left, right. That's hardwired, and the combination of that actuation close in the loop along with the software capabilities that can be applied to it, there's a ton of potential there, right? This is the next frontier, the next several decades. You you look around you and you see, look at all the inefficiencies in the world. You look at how the trash is picked up, you look at how houses and buildings are constructed, you look at how telephone cable is laid, you look at how physical goods must be manufactured and there's a lot of opportunity for software applied to the physical world And that's why all of us here at Mytra, we're super passionate about software applied to the physical world, and that comes in the form of robotics. And that is a that is a hardware hardware company. The second reason why hardware is is perhaps more exciting today than it might have been a few decades ago, you know, when you think of hardware, you think of silicon, like making silicon chips. That was really, you know, most of the hardware opportunity, but companies like Tesla and SpaceX have come along and they said, look, these are very legacy industries. The script has been written for how to build automotive vehicles and what margins for for decades, and Tesla's coming in and saying, we're gonna do it differently.

Everyone told, you know, Elon and company, they're crazy for doing this. There's very low probability for success. There's lots and lots of ways that this go poorly for them, but built an architecture that's significantly simpler, 10x simpler or more than the existing products, right? There's far fewer parts and shown that you can disrupt some of these industries. It's hard, hardware's hard, but if done successfully and done correctly, there's huge opportunity to make meaningful advances in building electric vehicles is, for some people, it's much more rewarding than optimizing some age on a website or increasing ad spend by 5% or something like that. So there's been a bit of a blueprint and a playbook that says you can disrupt very large industries through hardware, through some of the more modern successes like, you know, Tesla, Wooser Rivian, SpaceX, Anduril, couple of balls like that.
