Really what you're asking for is a 21st century version of a Leave it To Beaver lifestyle ... it's coming ...
But not until the late 2030s.
Every time I hear future years anywhere nowadays I end up doing the maths: Late 2030s feels so long from now, especially with all the climate change talk going on. I'll be 52 in 2037, my parents almost 80. An extremely low number of people in my family remember the last 1T. Most who did already passed on over the last 20+ years. I'm an only-child and am not looking forwards to the 2030+ timeframe in my personal life. I have anxiety when thinking of anything beyond the current decade. I'm interested in what technological advancements are coming, given that comp sci is my field.
