I like to go running with nothing on me besides a house key, and it's useful to be able to stop by Whole Foods after the run and buy a snack without a phone, watch, or wallet.

I've consciously reduced my pocket contents from car keys+wallet+phone to driver's license+phone. I'd love to be able to get rid of the phone sometimes.

Most of my lunch hours, I take nothing more than a five dollar bill.

A slice of cheese pizza is $2, and a bottle of water is $1. Then I sit in the park and watch life happen in front of me.

Very therapeutic.

Wear an NFC ring on your finger.

Unlike your palmprint, you can get a new ring with a new private key if yours is compromised.

It all boils down to the tradeoff between convenience and security. I don't think it is particularly easy to replicate a living hand with all the blood vessels. And it is not particularly easy to get a NFC ring with a secure element compatible with payment terminals.

I thought that the engineering team at Amazon did a great job with Amazon One. I wish someone could pick up the tech and carry on.

A powered door lock and keypad and you won't even need the house key!

A richer zip code and safer streets and you won't need either!
