Congratulations!
My first presentation at a new company was supposed to be for 4-5 people. I printed off eight copies of the hand-out, just in case a couple of extras showed up. I opened the door to see a total of 40+ people eagerly awaiting my presentation! It was in a large conference room but there was still standing room only!
I sent my boss off to find a photocopier. This was before the internet, we still did this kind of thing on paper.
It went well - I was asked to do it again as many people couldn't make the first one. Another 40+ attendees for that time but at least I had enough copies of the hand-out.
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

With automation disrupting centuries-old industries, the professional must reshape and expand their service to add value. Failure is a mindset. It is those who empower themselves with technology who will thrive.
Merger is a new film about the future of work, from cult director/designer Keiichi Matsuda (HYPER-REALITY). Set against the backdrop of AI-run corporations, a tele-operator finds herself caught between virtual and physical reality, human and machine. As she fights for her economic survival, she finds herself immersed in the cult of productivity, in search of the ultimate interface. This short film documents her last 4 minutes on earth.
Starring Sarah Winter

If you liked Existenz you might enjoy a Polish/Japanese film called Avalon.
If you do watch it be sure to watch the undubbed version in Polish with English subtitles - films dubbed into English tend to lose a lot in the dubbing.

Found it, there are quite a lot of movies named 'Avalon', but it must be this one: Avalon (2001) - IMDb[^]

I don't really get it - is it supposed to be like the movie Source Code?

Is there a market among people who find velcro too difficult to deal with?

Good question. I'm wondering if there will come a day where you can't even dress yourself without a smartphone. I wonder if Nike is going to make this a service and charge customers a monthly fee to lace their shoes.
When you are dead, you won't even know that you are dead. It's a pain only felt by others.
Same thing when you are stupid.

I guess it could be useful for those who can't see the laces to tie or velcro to attach. Of course, getting ones shoes on would also be a challenge for them.

Even completely blind people learn to tie shoelaces. I am not blind, but being the father of a visually handicapped girl, I met quite a few kids who where. They tie shoes without more problems than other kids. Maybe it takes a little longer for them to learn, but even seeing kids need lots of practice to learn it porperly.
When I tie my shoes, I don't look at the laces I never need to look at them. I have had quite a few years to practice it, though.

It was not clear from my post but I was actually thinking of people who are so heavy they can't see their own feet.

I certainly do, too old and fat to get at shoe laces so I wear slip on shoes. I do doubt I am the target market for exercise apparel though
