RS: Not Everything Sucks

"Hans Rosling's 200 Countries, 200 Years, 4 Minutes - The Joy of Stats - BBC Four"
The YouTube video "Hans Rosling's 200 Countries, 200 Years, 4 Minutes - The Joy of Stats - BBC Four" I watched was very interesting.  I think it is not surprising because the world keeps on growing and getting smarter.  Humans have been figuring out how to do and change to make things better forever.


The Ted video Peter Diamandis: Abundance is our future I watched was good I agree with Peter Diamandis.  He is right that everything is getting better and better, people are living twice as long it is great.   "I’m not saying we don’t have our set of problems; we surely do. But ultimately, we knock them down.”  Humans and the power of science lets us figure out just about thing over time.  Anything is possible, I bet in my lifetime cancer will be cared.  Like he said a cell phone now is way cheaper than a cell phone then.  Everything is basically available on a phone with all the apps now.  




Diamandis talks about this education and health app that can do testing better than humans. Thats honestly crazy and awesome.  The earth now has 7 billion people and everyone is going to get education and healthy.  Only 2 billion use the internet by 2020 3 more billion will join so it will 5 billion strong on the internet.  Everyone will be smarter, safer, healthy, and more educated. This is great for the world!
