I love how every one of these "how do we cope now" essays makes the assumption that the progress has now stopped, and what we currently have is what needs to be adapted to.

Humanity really does not want to look at what is happening.

OK, I'll bite. What, in your opinion is happening? What should we be doing instead?

HA! I'm of the belief that it is impossible to predict other than it's going to keep improving.

If you read this essay, you see quickly that his implicit assumption is that this is now the way things will remain. It is literally insane, given what we are seeing.

> What should we be doing instead?

I have no idea. No one does. This is a runaway train.

I guess being out of control is so intolerable to some people that their minds will not accept it.
