Fuck the government, we've got corporations.

We're gonna need hypercorporations for a Mars civilization though. Mars needs an insane investment for little to no short term profit.
Maybe something Mars related can come out of the bitcoin craze.

Oculus Go perhaps?

Lifting changes your hormones. There’s research that shows that lifting and other exercise actually cures depression. The real challenge is (if you’re genuinely depressed) to find the motivation to start. A dirty secret that no one likes to acknowledge about depression is the only person who can get you out of it is you.
Let me know if you need any lifting advice.

A solid foundation of routine is the easy solution.
Your effort eventually automates itself. It takes only a few weeks to begin feeling the positive effects compounding on themselves.

You severely underestimate the immediate devaluation of such a coin. Theres probably millions more people who've browsed as much if not more than you

Maybe in 2018 we'll learn to stop caring about celebrities so much, and learn to start caring about the people who know a little more.

I don't think u/chispy is saying autonomous vehicles will reach level 5 in 5-10 years, but more that once we reach level 5 it will be then that insurance will begin to fade out over perhaps 5-10 years.
Chispy • 5 points •
No, perfect level 5 within 5-10 years is more than realistic.
We already have level 4 mastered and actively pursuing level 5 with billions being invested in AI hardware, software, and sensors.
Perfecting transportation is a massive logistical priority that will benefit pretty much every facet of society and industry as it will allow for scalable improvement in liability reduction and cost efficiency.
Casey_jones291422 • 0 points •
The problem is that even when perfect level 5 exists there will be people in older cars. It'll be 20-30 years before the big change of having mostly autonomous cars happens
Chispy • 2 points •
Nope. Older cars will be banned on the roads.
They may be restricted to certain lanes before it happens though.

Don't forget Oculus Go.
I'm hoping we'll see fashionable Go headsets with straps that can be loosened up and worn like a necklace or retightened and slid to side of head. Could be cyberpunk-like fashion if it ends up being normied.
Only drawbacks I see is that it might still be a bit too thick for public use, and aside from Facebook Spaces, theres a chance there will be a lack of "killer apps" for mainstream popularity. Or, if there is, a short-lived popularity.

Im reading this in a public place. Hopefully there wasnt a cannibal that took it out of context.

Here's to hoping automation is properly taxed. Profit magins should begin scaling up for these companies that invest in efficiency through automation. The gains produced needs to be properly distributed.
