That’s sufficiently pessimistic actually

I call it "practical". You seem to think humanity is just ****ed, no exceptions. I think humanity will inevitably reach the next level but a lot of people will die during the transition. For example, even though it appears that most of what Ray Kurzweil talks about in regards to solar energy and tech are awesome and will happen unless a meteor wipes us out tomorrow, at best we're still over a decade away from the free market reflecting that reality. Are the signs there? Yeah. Am I going to personally benefit before I'm 40? That's a trickier bet.
