Thanks for the thoughtful post. It is a ...Michael,<br />Thanks for the thoughtful post. It is a little strange as I think that this is the post that caused me to respond, but your blog now is a confluence of many of my interests and I was completed to by this post. I work at intel… <br /><br />I too am excited and impressed with the capabilities of nano tech & IC, and I suspect something in the form factor you mention maybe a great product for people like you. Of course we all wish there were more of those, but you maybe not a big TAM. Anyway, I do really like the notebook/tablet convertibles available today. I also like my samsung galaxy note phone. I just have to be a bit flexible in my thinking about how I can leverage technology best to do what I want. To me a nice killer app is good video conferencing with real time tablet/stylus/screen sharing; that and fully automated vehicles ~50kg should help us move less mass and save our precious fossil inheritance a bit longer.<br /><br />As an aside, I remain uncertain which will be more problematic and disruptive – running out of atmosphere and the associated collateral damage or just running out of fossil fuels in just ~100 years. Both are clearly to me very very bad but it seems that in my mind the no more free lunch on the energy front is going to be more painful. Why are you so convinced that climate change is worse than running out of fossil fuels? It is blasphemy but I also fear that Moore’s law is much closer to the end than people will admit publicly. This means the blissful “future cures all” wont have the continued exponential increase in transistors that has fueled tech cycles ~1970 till now.<br /><br />Sorry my comment wasn’t more uplifting. I really enjoy your blog and look forward to your next post!<br />Cyrushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07866222298360799179noreply@blogger.com
