I live a day at a time. Each day I look for a kernel of excitement. In the morning I say: "What is my exciting thing for today?" Then, I do the day. Don't ask me about tomorrow.

The paradox is that as we advance into the future the need for change gets greater and greater (to cope with changes in population, pollution, etc. and to make full use of our new technologies) but the possibility of change gets less and less because everything is already committed.
-- Edward deBono
The future has a way of arriving unannounced.
-- George F. Will
Optimism is a strategy for making a better future. Because unless you believe that the future can be better, it's unlikely you will step up and take responsibility for making it so. If you assume that there's no hope, you guarantee that there will be no hope. If you assume that there is an instinct for freedom, there are opportunities to change things, there's a chance you may contribute to making a better world. The choice is yours.

The world of A.D. 2014 will have few routine jobs that cannot be done better by some machine than by any human being. Mankind will therefore have become largely a race of machine tenders. All high-school students will be taught the fundamentals of computer technology and will be trained to perfection in the use of the computer languages. Mankind will suffer badly from the disease of boredom, a disease spreading more widely each year and growing in intensity. This will have serious mental, emotional and sociological consequences, and I dare say that psychiatry will be far and away the most important medical specialty in 2014.

@anthropy it's the future! #thefuture
I used a Stihl electric chainsaw for a few hours yesterday and an hour on a petrol one. I reckon make the battery last 50% longer and 30% lighter and it’s game over for petrol ones. Super exciting, they’re so damn stinky.
I do wish Catl or someone would make a standard 36v battery unit that could be used in many devices - a chainsaw battery for instance would be great on a bike or scooter :)
