There are 7.5 billion people on the planet. Budgeting 1,000 per month that would be 90 trillion dollars per year. Even if you want to add 10 trillion dollars a year, that represents a quadrupling of our 4 trillion dollar budget, which would be raided from companies and individuals who are already struggling to compete…

No. We can’t.

We call that the “Reverse Rick Ankiel”!

This, then, is what happens when a king of the three true outcomes loses his bat speed, and with it his power to keep pitchers honest, and is reduced to a one-true-outcome hitter. (The one true outcome for all of us is decline, and, eventually, death.)

And also for your body. 

yeah well, at least these Jet updates won’t kill anybody

I can’t believe I’m having to explain this. Yes. The pods themselves don’t have wireless charging, but if you buy the bundle that does not include the wireless charging case the price of the pods is $150, not what was quoted in the article.

I find this stuff endlessly fascinating and look forward to reading the book!

The wireless charging model already exists and is for sale in their store...
