      @ShaneHudson We will. And I plan to start influencing the education sector even before the phone. It’s crucially important.

          @aral @ShaneHudson Teaching kids to assemble their own hardware - that would be really cool

          @claudiopro @aral Even I rarely assemble my own hardware, despite being fully capable of doing so.

          @ShaneHudson @aral You should do it once in your life before delegating after. Depending on a technology you don't understand is enslavement

          @claudiopro @aral I do agree with that to a certain extent. But for instance, I don't expect everybody to be able to build their own cars.

          @ShaneHudson @aral ...and so it's paramount that the impact is mitigated by education since early age, or we'll be raising dummies.
