10 inventions I would like to see

In no specific order:

  • Personal teleportation
  • Chocolate fudge that is actually good for you
  • Self-cleaning clothes
  • Self-cleaning anything, now that I think about it
  • No more billionaires. Technically not an invention, but it’s my list, so it stays.
  • The holodeck. Yep, the holodeck. Not this “put a stupid-looking piece of gear on your face” VR/AR stuff. I don’t care if Apple calls it “spatial computing”, it still looks dumb and no one wants to wear one of these things on their heads for hours at a time.
  • The Undo Device. Lets you undo any decision you’ve made and all of its consequences. This would, of course, lead to new and more horrible consequences, in true Twilight Zone-style, but I’m willing to risk it.
  • Purple cats
  • Replaceable body parts
  • A microwave oven that works the way we imagine a microwave oven should work
