It's the people who never think about other people's mental models (or even their own!) that are frequently hard to communicate with.

Apple notes for things I type quickly.
Elasticsearch for larger things like transcripts of classes I teach or take.

"Scientists synthesize material that may replace rare earth magnets"
("who" was two universities, so didn't fit a title).
No, we don't. This doesn't happen, at least where I live.
This sounds like a made up statistic, to justify bad behavior.
Obviously, custom tailored stuff is likely to take longer to develop, but it seems feasible.

"Digital will never replace film"
"Landlines will always be the majority of calls"
"Computers are cool, but will never replace typewriters"
No, we shouldn't. Conference videos are great. The only alternative that is likely to happen is no videos. Clearly worse.
Not a useful article.
Thanks to interview prep, lots of people are good at interviewing, and terrible at their jobs.
They better be paying for this upfront.
Most humans can't do it.
"Mirror" and "Charlie" for examples, and many others.
Lost was obviously in this category.
A five year mission is a much better premise.
This is what I hate about most TV series these days, the writers value conflict over character. This basically prevents any actual character development, or even any character identity at all, as the character changes from episode to episode. This is what makes a series forgettable.
Roddenberry forbade intra crew conflict as a plot device, so Star Trek has identifiable character that people still remember. BSGs characters are already forgotten, because they lacked identity.
Also: way fewer libraries. You might write ALL of an application. You might call the OS to just to read/write files. Today is much more gluing together libraries, which is nowhere near as much fun.
This has been my experience with teaching math and CS.
The biggest causes of failure is not identifying and teaching prerequisite skills.
The key point is prerequisite. Many times the skills needed to pass a math or CS class are not part of that class's curriculum.
Students who have encountered the building blocks already tend to do well, students who have not, tend to fail - no matter how much the class goes over the material in this class - because the problem lies before that material.
Much more effective than thinking about what I "should" do.
I did briefly see something that looked like a map, but then it smeared into an abstract art looking blob.
It gives a hierarchy, so todos, meeting notes, etc., can be organized. Search is reasonable.
Not perfect, but better than one large word doc, which I had been Using before.
You can communicate with civilizations only at almost exactly your level.
Us, a thousand years ago, could not even detect any of our modern communication methods.
How could we expect to detect signal from a civilization a million years ahead of us?
It's not that intelligence is rare. Intelligence at exactly our level is rare.
The Amish would likely be fine. Farmers with land and skill would likely survive, but would be able to provide crops for large numbers of people.
People in cities would die.
I don't expect there to be any difference soon. There no point for a laptop when it is just a screen plus a keyboard, which you can do with a pad.
There are clearly planning for convergence.
