More From Juvenal

Individual web pages as they first appeared in the early 1990s had the flavour of person-hood. myspace preserved some of that flavour, though a process of regularized formatting had begun. facebook went further, organizing people into multiple-choice identities while wikipedia seeks to erase point of view entirely. if a church or government were doing these things, it would feel authoritarian, but when technologists are the culprits, we seem hip, fresh, and inventive. people accept ideas presented in technological form that would be abhorrent in any other forms

Happiness is a state of non-contradictory joy--a joy without penalty or guilt, a joy that does not clash with any of your values and does not work for your own destruction, not the joy of escaping from your mind, but of using your mind's fullest power, not the joy of faking reality, but of achieving values that are real, not the joy of a drunkard, but of a producer.
Happiness Real Escaping
