Interesting times in Silicon Valley by John Markoff


Stuck in the airport in Indianapolis, the plane needs a part that they don't have.
oh well, at least there's wifi. and coffee.
This post is a link to Markoff's essay discussing the end (or pausing) of Moore's Law.
It's long, has many different ideas, including aging of the population and robots.

"We haven't made any breakthroughs in planning and thinking, so it's not clear that you'll be able to turn these machines loose in the environment..."
worth a read.
