    Very suspicious that you refuse to answer a yes or no question. I’m starting to think I should report you for trolling.

        Ah, I guess I missed your answer. If every prediction about the future is true, it includes all the predictions that humanity will be wiped out relatively soon, meaning that house building will never be fully automated and no one will commute by personal jetpack. But also all housing will be automated and people will commute by personal jetpack.

        At the same time.

        I can’t wait to see how you resolve civilization simultaneously collapsing and advancing.

            No, I’m really not getting it. I don’t get how two completely opposite things can simultaneously happen. That sounds literally impossible to me.

                You really shouldn’t talk about things you don’t understand. First of all, that wouldn’t literally happen to a cat. Secondly, that’s not what a quantum superposition is.

                    So now you’ve gone from 'house will definitely construction will definitely be entirely automated" to “I don’t know what will happen.”

                    Fascinating.

                    As far as jetpacks- people don’t want to fall to their deaths if they run out of fuel or have engine trouble on the way to work in the morning. I would have thought that would have been obvious.
