Somewhere between that Salesman talk is something that actualy might revolutionize Our world.

[@HugoBrown]

Drone.

[@curt0571]

Robert Frapples you're way too cool for this revolution frapples. You say so much with one word.

[@Levora]

I am quite amazed how rarely this has been viewed and how little comments there are. Nonetheless a very inspiring vision of the future. The kind of perspective and goals to strife and that the world so sorely needs.

Texas has 195,000 lane miles of roadway and 53,000 bridges. The cost to maintain the system is substantial and essentially means that at any given time 10% of the system is under construction or maintenance. Jeremy' discussed the idea of a distributed power network in which each home has its own solar / wind power source that is interconnected through a coop, and each time only mentioned the capital costs of installing the network. What about the maintenance costs of the network - not to mention the compatibility of components with the coop - many different solar / wind system manufacturers produce systems - will each system function well when interconnected to one coop network? The idea of a zero marginal cost energy system sounds appealing, but there are lots of factors that must be taken into account before claiming the system is zero marginal cost.

Very enlightening.

[@codrinvechiu2832]

i havent seen him for some time,great talk

[@jakoboberascher1184]

Brilliant

[@RandolfPinna]

Regarding making a power plant out of any building. Wouldn't it make sense to try to get every home off-grid and then build the power network from there? Basically the opposite from what we know now. So every home would have its own power plant and battery (Tesla is already experimenting) and power the new grid with its surplus energy.

[@isabellatong1278]

great thought

[@DJTithi]

makes me geiler than it should

[@thabokgobo4134]

[@quantumfeet]

impressive ....! What he is talking is way far that all other visionnaires people, as if the root of vision is Communication , Energy , Transporation

[@quantumfeet]

+heash hoch sincerly, I never stood more than 1hours to listen to such person talking about something, but I did listened not only one time , but two times, impressive talk

[@naimasrael6829]

This would help stop the innergy sucking of "We the people", nothing wrong with that... but I would like to know where he gets his statical data... maybe share some (or all) of the titles/authors of the prop-books stacked on stage??? Man knows not by being told... thankhz for sharing ((-;

[@idahodav2406]

But how do you take the greed out of it???

[@ms9771]

People , or buyer are not aware

[@willschlinsog]

food, shelter, and water might be something he forgot to address, Other than water is going away

[@SpoonyJank]

I bet this guy gets real hyped up for work meetings.

[@full6330name]

Hmm. Almost sounds to good to be true.

[@feli___b]

It would be amazing if it was true...

[@himynameis5130]

GO ED

[@NeoShameMan]

Well two new convergence, AI and non turing computer (quantum and memcomputer) will lead to an explosive disruption in cognitive labour so there is that too.

[@pimppappi702]

this so bad, this is the mark of the beast 666

[@kidrengo]

His ideas are interesting, but it's all high tech, carbon neutral, post peak oil, feel good, crypto currency, best practice, green speak. He's a genius, but is he a craftsman?

[@stevengibbs8117]

If you want to take a picture take it now because it's too loud? lol yes this is someone who i want to listen to talk about technology and especially those damn loud ipads with their loud clacking shutters lol go regurgitate ideas that other people have already said for money you fraud

[@DeeAreDee]

+Steven Gibbs For money? What are you talking about? The guy constantly talks about how all of his books were up on torrent websites before they were even published, and he encourages people to download his books, for free. He actively praises those who download books for free. What on earth are you talking about?
