My wife and I started talking about this after she had to help an old lady at the DMV figure out how to use her iPhone to scan a QR code. We’re in our early 40s.

    Very true. The next “great” technology will not be something that came before. Like prior to the iphone people just wanted smaller phones. They didn’t care about screen size. Just look at the phone Ben Stiller uses in Zoolander. That’s what people thought the future was.

    Bill Gates (yeah boo, I know) said:

    People often overestimate what will happen in the next two years and underestimate what will happen in ten.

    This is borrowed from others. It basically means fucking VR is going to be peanuts compared to what we will have in 10 years. Probably will just need to ask the phone “do this for me”.
