overlords and forced to shit into tubes to sustain the robots’ enormous fly-farms
like some nightmarish version of The Matrix, think back to this post and remember

“The tech community is hungry for a digital Martha Stewart” and somehow I think
I agree with him, however absurd a statement it seems out of context 😉
Even though I haven’t read the particular book he’s on about

mechanical tetris is just wrong - Hilarious
open letter to the media industry from the tech industry. Go read it now - As Anil notes,

“software equivalent of babe ruth pointing at the fence”
