Ask HN: Who is a Superhero backed by an engineering marvel?
I re-watched an old Ironman movie recently, this made me think, Jan-2023, how far are we from people wondering around cities with superhero powers backed by some engineering ingenuity? A super strong robotic arm ? Gun that hits a target by touching some screen and hitting OK? .. or is it already here and I just missed the memo ??
