And if you think about it, pretty much everything that made the twentieth century bearable was invented in a California garage: the Apple computer, the Boogie Board
In Paul Beatty's book "The Sellout," the author highlights how many significant inventions that shaped the modern era emerged from humble beginnings, particularly California garages. He points out that some of the most influential technological advancements and products, like the Apple computer and the Boogie Board, originated in these simple spaces, demonstrating the power of creativity and innovation in unconventional settings.
This observation underscores the broader theme of ingenuity that has defined the twentieth century. Beatty seems to suggest that some of the most transformative ideas and items in our lives often come from unexpected places, encouraging readers to appreciate the raw, unrefined origins of success and innovation.
