I was in sixth grade in 1966. I remember asking the question, “What will people do for work when machines do everything, even manufacturing and repairing machines?”

I was told I was being over-simplistic. That there are always things that require a human being to be completed.

I’m still waiting for a flying car per those 1960’s Popular Science magazines.

We should start letting robots write these opinion pieces. Would be no different than the dribble this person has written.

I was in 12th grade in 1982. I asked our BASIC programming teacher why we should use a two-digit year in the date field, when the year 2000 would cause problems because of the double 00’s?

He told me I had a bad attitude. He was a douche. Probably got rich fixing Y2K problems.
