" "Today mammography requires an expensive, large, stationary machine that takes a crude, two-dimensional picture. But imagine a 'bra' that has tiny X-ray pixel emitters on the top and X-ray sensors on the bottom. It's self-contained, self-powered, has a 3G or Wi-Fi-enabled network, and can be shipped to a patient in a FedEx box. The patient puts on the bra, pushes a button, and the doctor comes online and starts talking: 'Hi. All set to take your mammogram? Hold still.' The X-ray pixels fire, the detectors assemble and transmit the image, and the doctor reads it on the spot. The patient ships back the package, and she's done. With little time and little money.

Additional quotes by Peter Diamandis
Already, over 10 percent of millennials have opted for ridesharing over car ownership, but this is just the beginning. Autonomous cars will be four to five times cheaper — they make owning a car not only unnecessary, but also expensive. My guess, within ten years, you'll probably need a special permit to drive a human-operated car.

It’s incredible,” he says, “this moaning pessimism, this knee-jerk, things-are-going-downhill reaction from people living amid luxury and security that their ancestors would have died for. The tendency to see the emptiness of every glass is pervasive. It’s almost as if people cling to bad news like a comfort blanket.
