Wasn’t social media supposed to bring people together?   Still I wonder if a 
distributed nervous system could provide many advantages and hasten the end of 
such idiocy.    It will be interesting (maybe in my lifetime?) to find out how 
skills are encoded, and how similar they are across people.   Do basketball 
players or theoretical physicists or writers evolve similar or diverse neural 
architectures?   Does it depend on the skill?   Do the idiots all experience a 
similar cognitive failure mode or is it mostly a viral sociological phenomena?

What I want to know is where are the Elon Musk copycats hiding?  I can't walk 
down the street without bumping into at least one idiot who wants to be the 
next Donald Trump.  Shoot an african american, abuse an immigrant, or beat a 
woman to death, and there's a line of people out the door who want a piece of 
that action.  Why can't we all just build space ships, electric cars, and 
neural links?
