Six fingered aliens, Microsoft’s Robot OS ambitions, micro bubbles and other trends
Good Trends:
- As a high schooler when I was taking my first programming class – I wondered if it would be possible to have a microprocessor where more than one bit is the smallest unit of information. (I also wondered if there were aliens out there who had three fingers on their hands, wouldn’t they have a hepta-decimal numbering scheme). I guess the 3-bit revolution has begun in memory chips and we are moving closer to the day when we will be able to communicate with 3-fingered aliens.
- What if there was a standard operating system for robots, why has it taken so long to develop, and if Microsoft were to develop it – what would be the robot equivelent of the blue screen of death
- Can’t afford a robot well you people on the other side of the rail road tracks can just take a trip to the moon (almost)
Scary Trends:
- Can the brilliant whiz bang financiers who caused the housing bubble police themselves or should they move to smaller firms to do what they do best: create more financial bubbles. This article also poses the novel question that everyone in this market must be asking: can I buy a $90 million home with “bubble money”? You may be wondering why ask this question at a tech web site – well just look at the state of the tech job market and how it was precipitated.
- Not only does this telco’s customer service suck, but so does the experience for their shareholders. All hail another self centered CEO.
DOA Trends:
- “We’re the record companies. We’re big enough, we’re greedy enough, we’re loosing money and people don’t like us. So let’s start a new audio file format“.
