What's gotten more and less reliable & durable over time?
I'd be interested in seeing a breakdown of this by category, the way people break down inflation and find that some things have gotten cheaper while other things have gotten more expensive, but I'm not sure that exists?
I think it's clear that some things last longer and are more reliable than they used to be (cars, computers, lightbulbs, etc.) and some things are less durable and reliable (jeans, some small kitchen appliances, etc.)
