Great piece. As an entrepreneur in the CV/AR industry, it's interesting to see how a larger company examines the problems faced by technology that is about to converge. As a smaller company, we have to come up with a product that will stick in a related industry that will hopefully position us well when the time comes for true AR (hard or soft).
"skate where the puck's going, not where it's been"
That has to be one of the most useless articles I've ever read. So, yeah, if you take a metaphor for a generalization about anticipation, you can "debunk" it by ignoring that it's a metaphor and quibbling over minor issues of pedantry. But that article does nothing to share any actual useful information, so far as I can tell.

ROFL... yeah, that quote is hilarious, though.
The Gretzky Principle is nice to come across from time to time.
