Having just signed (electronically) over a dozen times to buy a car, this one still troubles me: 4. Electronic signatures have always been as legally binding as the pen-on-paper kind.
This one, OTOH, is sort of pleasant: 19. In their lifetimes, Blackberry has gone from being a wild fruit to being a communications device to becoming a wild fruit again.
The first syllabus I ever wrote (1970) was 3 pages long. The last one (2017) was 13 pages long. For the same course--introduction to microeconomics, 27. Once on campus, they will find that college syllabi, replete with policies about disability, non-discrimination, and learning goals, might be longer than some of their reading assignments.
And I just read the bit about the Bradbury Landing. 34. Carl Sagan has always had his own crater on Mars.
Every year (from the first time they did this back in the Paleolithic Era) I have looked forward to this list.
