      If you don't have high creativity in your childhood, then.. why expect too much to your children?
      Really. Human adults need to think that they were a kid too long time ago. Don't think children can think and act like you do in your adult time.
      That usually what happen to some family. The parents neglect the children and think they(the children) can do it by themselves.
      These adults don't deserve to raise family actually. They're not matured enough.

    These are absolutely wonderful useless machines, I really enjoyed this video and Joseph Herscher is a great person to interview.
    But the thing I am most interested in is - how does he pay for it all. What is his source of income? When you watch a video like this it is easy to forget we live in a Capitalist society where everyone must have money, and have a constantly-renewable source for that money. His machines don't contribute anything useful to society, so no government funding, where does the money come from that allows this man to live his dream?

    • @markfryer9880
      @markfryer9880 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      The machines don't directly contribute to society, but they do entertain people and make them happy which is a very important contribution to society. Why do you think people in the entertainment industry are paid so well when they have a hit TV show? Because people will watch to be entertained and advertisers want to put their products in front of those people.
