    ⓘ Dogs don't have thumbs Retweeted Nate Campbell

    Yep, I've noticed this. He's consistently ~10-20 years ahead of the curve. Much of Snowcrash (written c. 1990, I presume, published 1992) stopped being SF only circa 2010. Diamond Age is starting to get real - watched a video of folks 3-D printing rocket engines last night.https://twitter.com/N8istootall/status/1311017222123458560 …

    Reading Neal Stephenson books that are over a decade old makes him seem eerily prescient. E.g. the protagonist's conversation with his girlfriend's academic friends in Cryptonomicon.

        The web/internet does not have Victorian houses on treads. And there are no private aircraft carriers.

        That entire book is a dystopian warning.

        Yeah when you first hear of Relativity you're like "But why?" and then they say "We have 100x fewer parts and build 10x faster" and you're like.pic.twitter.com/rcSvqXzVBn

        Seveneves definitely predicts what social media does in a crisis, as well. It's not 10-20 years ahead, but 5, which is still pretty admirable.

        A backlash against social media, presuming it happen, fits the timeline.

        I think the "elites" were just tech savvy people. And it's from their point of view, so it feels more charitable. There's still a lot of insanity with the college kids. They've totally absorbed critical theory.
