       I'm appalled by the proportion of people walking down the street looking at their phones. It's NUTS. Besides the obvious, not living in the moment in the world, the lack of situational awareness is terrifying. (Same thing, I guess.)It's the equivalent of texting while driving.

       @tomjennings And they act like being on the phone will prevent them from bodily harm when hit with 3,000 pounds of sheet metal at 25 miles per hour.

       @tomjenningsI find it incredibly antisocial to behave like this in any shared public space. It's a basic courtesy to other people to engage enough with your surroundings that you can use each others body language to avoid walking into each other, etc. I guess I'm old fashioned :(

       @tomjennings How else are you going to use the AI-powered camera to identify the type pavement you’re walking on?
