I am proud to be an infantile person, I want a lot of convenience and efficiency, and I want a lot of big, shiny toys.

I think the modern doom and gloom era is very depressing. I am a technocrat and a futuristic optimist.

For me, the modern popular vision of future is not worth living for.

The popular vision for the future is _exactly_ technocratic.

> I am a [...] futuristic optimist

Me too. But 50s era techno-fetishization is not the lever to achieve a better future.
