“Musk and his fellow tech CEOs promote driverless vehicles as the future because it’s the future they desire. They don’t want to be on a subway or train next to regular people — as Musk has already said, one of them might be a serial killer! It’s troubling how much they want to isolate themselves from regular people, but the reality of urban mobility is that only a small portion of the population can be in individualized transport until it simply stops working.”

I’m not a big fan of Elon Musk. I think he’s driven by a huge self-serving ego. He’s charming and charming people can be dangerious.

This is why I’ll never go to Disneyland. I don’t consider this “enhancing” my ride experience. I find it creepy and invasive. It’s not that I’m bothered by Disney tracking me through the park, it’s that I don’t want my name thrown up on a screen for everyone to see. That is a violation of my privacy.

Pro-tip for new indie devs: Your hardest game will be your second game.
