I can see the point for Google Chrome, but is anything else relevant enough for such a summary article? Self-driving cars fit better in the 2020s when they will actually drive without a human watching them, we have three software projects that didn't change the world, we have one transportation proposal without any impact (as of 2019) and two legal issues that didn't have a long-lasting global impact. Compare this to events we can cover: The discovery of the Higgs boson and gravitational waves, CRISPR, the rapid expansion of smartphone and tablet sales, smart watches, smart home devices, the big changes in the spaceflight market, ... --mfb (talk) 12:50, 8 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Mfb: I agree re the issues that could be added here. I think the existing items should remain, though. --Sm8900 (talk) 23:17, 5 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I added a couple of them. CRISPR should be done by someone who knows it better. I don't feel the smartphone entry really captures how much they changed everyday life of so many, but it is much better than not discussing it. The internet entry could be expanded as well. Smart [other stuff] is still missing. And I still think many of the older entries are too minor for such a summary page. --mfb (talk) 12:44, 9 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
