Age of Magic

2 points by mannicken ↗ HN
Hooray-hooray, my fellow human siblings. If you haven't been following things for the last twenty years then you missed out on some seriously freaky shit.

We finally reached the age where magic bursts from fiction and hallucinations of insane into the real world, for everyone to touch and see. We were dreaming of teleportation and now we can IM each other and video-chat. We were dreaming of telekinesis and now we can lift things without any physical contact with them (thanks science for wifi and bluetooth). We were dreaming of remote viewing and now we have webcams. There is probably more, but for now, this freaks me out enough.

We: engineers, programmers, designers, testers are nothing but wizards. Let's be proud of what we do, for we direct forces of the universe into inanimate objects to make them feel emotions and think.
