How Tech Bros Get Sci-Fi Wrong

If you were in Albania in those early years of communism chances are you’d find reasons to see the silver lining

Extremism is the enemy. We give it a bunch of names, put it on a fake spectrum, and rail on each other about how our extremes will be better, but it's all the same thing. Extremism is the enemy.

Welcome to Albania. Welcome to the world.

How To Tell If We're Beating COVID-19

The last couple of years have taught us a lot.

Like the value of social ties and community,

how absolutely inextricable technology is

the boundary between our physical and digital selves

more like science fiction than ever before.

from the co-founders of Google to Elon Musk,

And while sci-fi has its fair share of cool lasers

it's also uniquely positioned to explore big ideas.

Let's find out in this Wisecrack Edition:

Oh, and spoilers ahead for a few great works of sci-fi

I wanna tell you about this week's sponsor: Keeps.

and more affordable for guys to prevent hair loss.

will experience hair loss in some form by the time to 35,

Keeps is relevant to a lot of people out there.

you can fight back and hang on to the locks you've got.

Keeps for access begins with a free consultation

and over-the-counter medications are right for you.

These medications will arrive at your doorstep

so you don't have to leave your house to pick up refills.

But here's one question we can answer right off the bat.

it typically takes between four and six months

If you are ready to take action and prevent hair loss,

Sci-fi has always inspired real-world tech.

Fritz Lang's 1929 film Woman in the Moon,

helped humanity add space flight to its to-do list.

consulted with Lang to envision the space shuttle,

bringing in ideas like multi-stage rockets

for both practical and aesthetic reasons,

have become foundational to space travel.

The movie was also beloved by America's Pet Nazi,

who went on to design the Apollo spacecraft.

One of the Apollo 8 astronauts, Frank Borman,

Jules Verne is one of the pioneers of the space age.

they invariably cite both classic and contemporary sci-fi

treats the Neal Stephenson novel, Snow Crash

who apparently made it required reading for new recruits.

Elon Musk says that Isaac Asimov's Foundation

of Douglas Adams' Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series.

And Peter Thiel has described his vision of the future

as uniquely inspired by sci-fi writer Robert A. Heinlein.

It's no surprise that an industry dominated by nerds

some works are invoked a lot more than others.

In addition to the aforementioned Foundation series
