Just left Okinawa on Tuesday for Hakone. Tokyo next week. I specifically memorized the phrase "I am not affiliated with the military" after all this started heating up. Amazing to see that basically nothing has changed since I was stationed in Oki in 2007

But, in the same vein, things will grow that are actually useful. Nobody needs AI injected into every aspect of daily life like it is now, but there will be things we look bark on in 20 years wondering how we lived without it, I'm sure.

When the dot com bust happened, the internet didn't just disappear overnight, it just shrunk into something more reasonable. I feel like this is the same.
