This morning I read You Are Not A Server: Nor Are You Finalizable by Alan Jacobs, in the Hedgehog Review.
The article invited me to:
- Challenge the simile, “my brain is like a computer” and question its (the simile’s) usefulness.
- Expand my options and consider the third response.
- Imagine alternative relationships with social media.
- Read Dickens, especially David Copperfield (my Grandpa loved it).
- Be more than anyone could expect.
- Surprise with grace.
