The new freestyle/song/whatever from Kanye West that he performed the other night at Anaheim's PowerHouse 2015 was quite timely. It's graduation season for those of you who don't know and "I want it all" is how a lot of kids are thinking these days. This is the time in many young people's lives when they feel like the whole world is at their fingertips - and hopefully it is. Ye rapped over the instrumental from his classic track "Heartless" stating, "everything I do that's not perfect only makes it that much more perfect." In my mind this means that we can't be afraid to fail. Being imperfect is the perfect way to be.
[cheesy transition] The future is HERE. The future is NOW. Imperfect is not how anyone would describe autonomous cars (if so, god help us all). With Google experimenting on driver-less cars for who knows how long, it seems that their deployment in the marketplace is nearer than we would have thought. It's hard to imagine the road being packed with autonomous cars by 2020, but I guess the iPhone blew up pretty fast too. You never know. I guess we'll see if all of these college grads (myself included) really do want it all...
