J. Storrs Hall 写的《Where is My Flying Car?》（我的飞天车在哪？）。这里的飞天车既是字面意思，也是一种隐喻。如果你曾好奇为什么科技停滞不前了，这本书很适合你。如果你怀疑科技是否真的停滞了，这本书会……
Where is My Flying Car? by J. Storrs Hall. The flying car is both literal and metaphorical. If you’ve ever wondered why technology has stagnated, this is the book for you. If you doubt technology has stagnated, this book will…
……影响受试者的行为，所以如果你愿意来一场脑力狂飙，可能还是会觉得它挺有意思的。在我在 2020 年读过的书里，只要一有机会我就必须推荐这一本：J. Storrs Hall 的《Where Is My Flying Car?: A Memoir of Future Past》（我的飞天车在哪？：关于未来过去的追忆）
…behaviors that affect the subjects, so you might yet find it interesting, if you're willing to take wild ride. Of the books I've read in 2020, this is the one I must recommend anytime I get a chance: Where Is My Flying Car?: A Memoir of Future Past by J Storrs Hall
> 事情自七十年代以来怎么就走下坡路了，这对我来说一直是个大谜团。有一本深刻（哪怕有点零乱、偶尔也有错误）的书声称能回答这个问题：J. Storrs Hall 写的《Where is my flying car?: A memoir of future past》[1]。在作者看来，归根结底是因为：* 人均能源消耗量陷入了停滞，而在此前它每 10 年就会翻一番。（尤其是，……
> It's a big mystery for me how the things went down since seventies. There is a insightful (if a bit messy, and occasionally wrong) book that purports to answer that question: Where is my flying car?: A memoir of future past, by J. Storrs Hall. [1] In that author's view, it boils down to * a levelling off of energy consumption per capita, that previously had doubled every 10 years. (In particular,…
我喜欢这个问题。先抛开《圣经》，这里还有几个选项：《Where is my Flying Car?》、《从 0 到 1》、《失乐园》、《伊甸之东》
I like the question. Bible aside, here are some other options: Where is my Flying Car? Zero to One Paradise Lost East of Eden
……自 70 年代以来基本就走平了。看来在文明尺度上，要达到更高的发展和表现水平，单纯就需要更多的焦耳（Joules）。如果你不认同，我强烈推荐《Where is my Flying Car?》这本书。
…basically flatlined since the 70s. It appears that on a civilizational scale, reaching greater levels of development and expression simply requires more Joules. If you disagree, I highly recommend the book Where is my Flying Car?
克拉克的《未来的轮廓》（Profiles of the Future）预测错了一大堆，但依然令人赞叹。最近有本书叫《Where is my flying car?》，其论点是，如果不是在核能等关键领域陷入了不必要的停滞，过去的科幻愿景完全是可以实现的。在这个观点看来，70 年代是个转折点，我认为……
Clarke's Profiles of the Future was off on a whole lot, but still impressive. There's a recent book Where is my flying car? with the thesis that old sci-fi visions of the future could've been accurate if not for unnecessary stagnation in key areas like nuclear power. The 70s were the turning point in this view, which I think…
