Random thought on metaphor: in engineering, your "argument" is always grounded in a structure "beneath" your construction: the UI is grounded in code, which is grounded in the OS, which is grounded in the processor's logic, which is grounded in circuitry and ultimately physics.

aspiration horror. (what if we don't get what we deserve, and the steady work we do to get somewhere is a slow self-mutilation that ends in our ruin.)

Is there a word for precision that makes things less robust? In this case thinking of a deadbolt bathroom lock that’s perfectly aligned vs a hook and loop lock. One stops working if the door warps a little

"Uber proposes policy that would pay drivers a minimum wage of $21 per hour"
Like clockwork. They are slowly setting up a heavily regulated environment that only they will be able to afford.

(basically:
a restricted palette can sometimes be more functional.
and a language is a palette
generated by the speech of a culture.)

A common experience nowadays is carefully thinking of a response to something somebody says only for them to respond to me as if what I said was extremely superficial and missing what I felt was the point.
