Was thinking about how we have interfaces between ourselves and the big scary entities
-
-
We have some control over the interfaces - like in 16th century Amsterdam the front of your house is the interface of taxation
-
Rights are descriptions of appropriate interfaces, but only wishful descriptions without incentives maintaining them
-
Directing interaction through a particular interface (a door, the phone, an anonymous identity) allows the rest of you to be protected
-
Engineers are now confident that some interfaces, when placed in a stream of energy (adoration, outrage), can act as a kind of sail
