I love his explanation of Cypherpunk culture and the massive role it has played in shaping our society. I also think he makes a great point about developers and the autism spectrum. Some of the advice he gives for understanding the future?

The closing statment was so profound, so amazing to me, I had to pause the video and replay it a few times so I could copy it down:
