Ryan’s Journal: My Car in Flames

Today I was driving and my car burst into flames.

I wish that a hook to get you interested, but it’s the reality of what happened.

It made me think about some things as I watched the fire department spray my car down. (The image above is not my car.) One was, am I driving a safe car? The second thought was, how can I better myself so I don’t have do face this again.

Life will always give ups and downs, but can we prevent tragedy?

I find that the current state of affairs in tech are really trying to prevent tragedy and perfect our world. Facebook wants to prevent election tampering. Tesla wants to automate cars. Uber wants to increase safety of riders. Amazon wants you to order an item and receive it same day.

They all are seeking to alleviate pain and make our lives easier.

Is that what we want? I do.

However what is the cost? I’m not sure yet but I’ll let you know.

Good news. I’m safe, my car is towed and I can write another day.
