Yeah, the corporate bean counters sold our American intellectual property to the Japanese as well as let the Japanese dump their film into the county with no tariffs.

And yet Kodak pretty much went bust because they failed to diversify away from photographic film?

Yes! I often try to explain to our two daughters what life was like before our smart phones, microwave ovens, streaming services like Spotify, record players, the Telephone Catalogue!They ask things like “what did you actually DO with all that extra time? They’re so used to just getting things “now!” and I worry for their, everyone’s sanity sometimes.

By the mid80s people were already communicating via phone lines using modems and sending digital information. That wasn't much of a stretch. The internet was already in use by the military.

@@ricomajestic, I was pretty technically illiterate back then, so it was still a mystery to me.

My father was a telecom engineer as well in the mid 60s until he passed in the early 90s. One thing I remember the most is when he brought home a piece of fiberoptic cable home and explained to me how it worked. As a kid I thought that was so cool. Oh and the early Internet stuff he told me about was amazing too. Lol..

Your dad was a true visionary!

talk about.... missed opportunities...

It took much more than just making the system public for it to become a platform worth advertising on. And really, advertising is rather small potatoes compared to the whole impact of the internet. I did some work in the 80s that made use of ARPANET (the "early version"), and it was PRIMITIVE and problematic, but it worked. By the early 90s, I was using email across oceans, in business, and that was much easier and more intuitive. In a few years, the emerging internet was a different story, with the WWW application, browsers, and multiple file and data transfer protocols for sharing information. That decade was a revolution. Your father was right at the time. He just didn't have his focus set on what was at work in out-of-the-way places. Some others did.

I thought the internet was going to be a fad in 1998😢

@@garyfrancis6193 I wrote "I'm glad I live in the 2020's. We've added 20 years to the average world life expectancy since this video". In what way did you misinterpret that to mean that I think people lived to be 100 in perfect health in the past? Until the 1974 ECOA law, it was legal and common for financial institutions to discriminate against people on the basis of sex. Not every single woman every time, no. Without colonialism (which involved lots of really gruesome mass murder) Africa would probably be much better off financially. Do you actually believe the only way to industrialize or build roads or acquire democracy is to be conquered? Do you think that's how the industrial revolution happened in Britain?

Agreed. Maybe we could call it a spiritual revolution , in opposition to an industrial one. A shift from competition to cooperation, from the individual to the collective. I'm afraid that we will probably never see that happening.

Well, so be it then. What are you afraid of?

Exactly, that was very prescient of Asimov and we are pretty much destroying ourselves now.

@@leandrodavila5975 Exactly wrong, as it never goes as planned anyway. Collectivity is a recipe for the worst disasters humans know. Cases in point: recent China, Russa, Germany, Japan. Live and let live. Competition is good for human. All oif these guys, especially Fuller are full of themselves. The sky is not falling. Life goes on. Pull your head up out of the sand. Neither you nor they have a right to plan humanity, outside of you misguided opinions.

​@@leandrodavila5975 Socialism doesn't work. The problem is that somebody has to be in charge, control resources & organize and people are inherently self-interested. It's how we are made, in order to lookout for ourselves! We are inevitably corruptible, in the name of self interest. Look at ANY government, any bureaucracy, down to the DMV. Mindless systems of blanket rules enforced whether beneficial or apt, or not. Everyone in the system focusing first on their own benefit, lol. Humans will ALWAYS strive to get more for themselves & those they love & seek power for it's own sake. When you lock in a system of enforced equity, those people start working for themselves like busy little bees, and the rest of the population is yoked to provide for THEM. Soon their hoards beggar society & they despoil the environment for more, more, more resources. China the USSR come to mind. Venezuela. It is better people are free to provide for themselves, and contribute as a group for those not intelligent enough, or physically capable, of self support. And that system is corrupted too! Anything that has human beings involved is going to be corrupt. The trick is to keep the corruption down to a minimum. Keep government as small as possible and let people run their own lives. Have laws that protect us all and give us equal opportunity. Then your labor benefits yourself, not a bunch of f****** bureaucrat fat cats like we are being ruled by, not SERVED, now. Term limits!

In other words, capitalism

Exactly. And convincing the electorate this stupid situation is good for them. Which is exactly what we have in America today.

Our own governments and the richest people in the world all believe human population will continue to rise as it did during the last 1900s and it definitely will not nor can not, in fact, were already on course for Population Collapse due to the policies and laws introduced over the past 20 years.

It's not that miniaturization wasn't an ongoing thing. These men saw radios with vacuum tubes shrink to hand-held radios with transistors. Even TVs had gotten smaller in their lifetimes.
