This is the truth! It almost feels like Moores law kind of. The further we go,
the more time and money needs to be invested to reach the next level.

I wonder how many paradigm shifts and quantum leaps remain to be exploited? I'd
like to have anti-gravity!! And in computing, I'd like to see a shift to a new
paradigm during my time left on the planet.

I imagine that our IQ scales (as bad as they might be) start to break down
beyond a certain level.
