Things we use everyday that probably won’t exist in 10 years:
- phone numbers
- credit/debit cards
What else?

Liberal Arts degrees
Nah, that's going to be around for a very long time. Maybe 50+ years. But honestly it will probably just evolve.
How dare you disagree with me.

Oh shit.
I’ve perfected my Job. I delegate 100% now & can spend my time on podcasts, hockey & golf. I’m unfireable. The power is intoxicating.
I’d pay a lot of Sats to see you on a podcast.
A lot of Sats 😳
I would pay 10sats
Nobody can afford me. 
OK 21 Sats, but I get a cut of the royalties 🤝
Book idea Mike.
Nostr threads. Just ridiculousness in a book.
I’d like to speak with the manager.
Oh no🤔 …that’s now😂🤷🏽♂️
Once AI takes over most manual and many practical functions in society and people have more intellectual leisure time, the study of liberal arts may have a renaissance.
Don't get me wrong, I _want_ people to study the classics, philosophy, etc., it's essential. But paying 200k to read plato is fucking ridiculous. That said, I welcome the rennaissance that has new adults going off to spend a few years learning how to think when we no longer expect college to simply credential you into a slave wage and people can afford college without much or any debt and then return to their communities enriched and ready to contribute meaningfully, probably by plumbing and masonry.
Hopefully the fucking FED!!

- cash / ATMs / everything related
- usb-a
- fax (looking at you Germany)
- snail mail
- call centers (probably related to no phone numbers and no trad. phone calls)
- bank or insurance branches
- LTE
- gaming consoles (maybe one generation longer)
- cashiers in large chains / big cities
- receptionists
Is the gaming console just an ASIC (special purpose hardware)?
Actually it’s general purpose hardware optimized for gaming. I think, the ps core chip was the last optimized cpu. I don’t see the need for a dedicated device with the power of other devices increasing again at faster pace.

I believe passwords are dying. In 10 years, biometric authentication and passkeys will likely replace them entirely. The days of “forgot your password?” are numbered.
Yeah, this is a good point fingerprint eye scan I again don’t know why we’re not already doing that
Disposable diapers, tampons, wet wipes, paper towels, toiletpaper, razorblades, cutlery. Disposable anything.
No one is going to spend precious sats on once used throw away products.
Well, there will be much less demand for it. The money will indeed reduce everyone's time preference by tremendous degrees.
These products are mass produced. If demand falls by a fraction an entire industry fails
Then people start doing things for themselves.
Personal responsibility = sats stacked.
What about the argument that with a lower time preference encourages people to place an increased value on their time. Combined with the added time it takes to clean the reusable products and offsetting that with dedicating that time for increased sats flow?
E.g. using disposable napkins and diapers to cut down on laundry time. Using that saved time for a side gig.
Curious on your thoughts on this.
That is another aspect. This need will be met gradually with the increased demand of and introduction of various solutions that are both reusable and low on use of a person's labor. The example that immediately comes to mind is efficient dishwashing machines replacing both the highly time and water consuming process of handwashing dishes and the highly paper consuming process of using throwaway paper plates. Increased preference and ability to allocate capital for the future causes an increase in the durability and efficiency of the general society, all else being equal.

Phone numbers are such a terrible idea to begin with. It's time to bid farewell to this poor UX.

No phone numbers? What does that look like, genuine mid curved question?

Really ? I am still seen some using cards in 10 years from now .
Interesting!
You don't see paying with your phone (or other wearable) becoming the prevailing method of payment over square pieces of plastic in 10 years?
Cards can be insecure:
- always ready to pay so people can bump your pocket with an NFC reader to steal your money
- name, card number, security code is visible on majority of cards so a quick photograph of the card is as good as having it in hand
- it's physicality means it can be lost or stolen (whereas a phone typically has a passcode/biometric lock)
Those are my thoughts at least. I personally prefer Tap to Pay with my phone over reaching for my wallet.
