Technology

Technology brought me to Melbourne this week.

I needed dinner late, and fortunately the hotel's restaurant was still bustling at 8:30, and they found me a table for one.

I had to order via a QR code, which was slightly annoying but I guess this is the future. And then this robot brought me my dinner. To the wrong side of the table, requiring me to stand up to retrieve it.
