Fifteen years ago I watched a prophetic TV show.

Since I watched Preston of Interest Iâ(TM)ve been waiting for governments to bring out an equivalent to the Samaritan super AI to select troublemakers for pre-crime jail.

Everyone should watch POI and read Minority Report by Philip K Dick.

Yes. Idiocracy came a few centuries early.

The ability to read or watch videos for a few minutes does not give us any real knowledge. Too many people think they become amateur experts just by consuming media.

Robert A. Heinleinâ(TM)s The Menace From Earth had parks where people would strap on wings and glide inside a large cavern.

His novel The Moon is a Harsh Mistress was about a rebellion. The moon had been set up as a prison colony similar to what Britain did with Australia and the rebellion was due to the continued oppression of the descendants of the original prisoners.

Salary means nothing unless you can compare it to the cost of living in each city. I would suggest a high wage in Silicon Valley is actually lower than many other areas due the the high cost of rent and real estate.
