The argument also seems based on what human minds can think about. Especially the part about principle of mediocrity. Yet we cannot see the whole universe(s).
This is what makes the idea it so interesting.
Europeans think more like:
'How much of my life/self do I have to give up for this X?'
In the US we're more like:
'How much money can I make with this X?'
Social media is not even real social behavior. What a strange term for what seems like more and more entropy being introduced into a system. Mostly fucking up any real culture, any real social interaction that it claims to create.
If you wanna do this sort of thing that is all fine and good. Just back the fuck off (even some) with your creepy, kooky, cluster-fuck, and stalker crap.
1.5 billion is a drop in the bucket in America's economy much less the global one. This is/., I'd like to think we understand numbers well enough to know that.
If you spent 1.5 billions dollars on some kind of think tank that would just focus on asking the right freakin' questions about where humans are going....the result might be more than that drop of water vapor.
Does facebook define friendship anywhere on their site? Just curious. All those friends you can get and all. I would think somewhere, maybe in the fine print even, they define what it means.
Does it quantify how many friends you really need?
Does it define what a good relationship is?
Does it explain where it got the idea it was okay to stalk people all over the web?
If you create a good environment, good memories, even encourage kids to leave town...eventually some of these bright minds might just come home...
Maybe consider making sports part of a background of a larger group of after school activities. Don't make the music program revolve around (and depend on) the football program. Stop using simpleton phrases like jocks and nerds entirely. Maybe teach what we don't know instead of blunting kids over the head with deductive thinking.
We humans posture like we can control the climate. A vast, complex system. Yet we can't even see ourselves, our species as a system. Or part of a larger system.
I think this is a contradiction and an Everest of hubris.
It doesn't mean that our ideas and technologies are not interesting though...
Saying 'pen and paper is dead' is like saying there is no such thing as neuroplasticity.
Sometimes people like Galileo and Google can get things wrong.
Agent Smith was ignorant of biology. Mammals of all kinds can overpopulate, exhaust resources and cause themselves starvation, disease and misery.
We are the only mammal that has created computer technology though. Or come up with interesting ideas like how the universe may be a simulation. When it comes to living on planet earth though, sometimes it kinda seems like we are winging it. Big picture wise.
Yes, any job can be outsourced and automated.
This also includes the human brain. Because it will just be so cool. Embrace the change. Figure out ways to accelerate the change.
Don't change the human brain though. Keep it stagnant for thousands of years.
I think it would be more intelligent to realize that these computers don't exist in nature. Humans created them. If you can't understand this fact then maybe there is a self esteem issue.
Also, then maybe working the devices would be more common than the devices 'working' humans. And brains would be getting bigger.
Geocaching is not nature.
If they would of kept your request in mind, they would not have created another polarity (amongst countless other ones 24/7), by whipping up angst and fury on both sides, and then showing a poll and offering the chance to vote yes or no.
Based on observation of the mobile device phenomena, the devices work people more than the people work the devices.
So I predict you may need to alter your identity akin to something out of minority report in order to get your restaurant/public places privacy. Maybe this could be a new market of sorts even?

Seriously?
The previous record was from 60 years ago and the difference was 0.4 celcius.
Alarmist much.
I think they are still talking about 'dynamics' of the human species on the planet earth at the present time. So no...
Prickly demeanor, personal attacks. This is simply a lack of maturity. Occam's razor
By that rational ant hills don't exist in nature because the ants created them.
No. Ant hills are organized dirt. Computers come from the human brain. There's a difference.
