“You can’t solve a problem on the same level that it was created. You have to rise above it to the next level.”
–Albert Einstein

Big companies have been given financial parachutes and the ability to operate during the pandemic while others have been forced to shut down.

[Milfhunter_]

Personally felt more like society and corporations are pushing current technology level to its limits rather than innovation during this pandemic.

This man is definitely gonna be a billionaire when amazon buys his drone company

E-learning has hardly been a success for elementary or secondary students. Your focus on uni students is convenient b/c it suits your program. But e-learning has been a disaster for kids. It has not democratized education! Far from it.

Lots of fine words: challenge, innovation, progress, pushing further into the future, speed...

Can we stop and think if the future is really going to be so freaking cool???
I see a lot of separation among people and a lot of anxiety... Am I the only one seeing this???

As an Energy Engineering student who is about to graduate, after watching this video I started to question myself what am I doing? The wolrd is full of challenges and new opportunities while I am here sitting in a chair, with a ton of homework for doing and worried about my grades.

Two obvious takeaways: (1) government investment in new technologies spurs tons of innovation and economic growth. We've known this for eons. When a crisis erupts, functioning governments pour money into research and stimulus, and voila, innovation and growth. (2) College in America should be free. No question about it. No person should have to worry about paying for their essential needs: food, clothing, shelter, health care and education.

“Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world.”
― Albert Einstein

The retail sector has experienced the most negative impact from the wake of this pandemic.
Clothing retailers have lost access to direct interactions with their customers.
Online shopping and online businesses has been the most used source for B2C transactions.

Restaurants, food stores and diners have had to adopt to collection/takeaway methods. This has boosted revenue for courier companies like UberEats and Deliveroo.

Basically online is the new normal and without the internet we would be lost!

[trumanshow]

The pandemic required the improvement of technological policies (like medical R & D, infrastructure, technical rules), economic
& social policies (new industries or social security), human resource policies (public health & education or enlightenment).
However, it also necessitated administrative management policies (scaling up like international cooperation &
decentralization like hearing the medical field). I hope we’ll be able to get sustainability with new techs & humane policies.

Sorry, those two sisters raised £250, 000, 000 on the back of one ghost kitchen? That's insane.

[isaaccherian]

Innovation should have been one of our top priorities not just in time of crisis, but also in normal situations. Only then people will realize how it could have been one of the most useful resource.

Using one Chromebook for literally anything is awful.
