(14) #JaronLanier wants to remind us that a "Friend" isn't just "someone whose algorithmic profile resembles mine." A FRIEND is an EXPERIENCE, not a collection of data fragments chopped into standardized pulp to, as #PatCadigan would say, "Change for The Machines."
(13) Which of course reminds me of #PatCadigan 's brilliant "Synners" in which direct neural interface entertainment is advertised as "YOU BE THE *!!!" Which her snarky characters read as "You be the Ass To Risk."
I've read Fools by #PatCadigan.
Literally everyone complains about not being able to understand what this novel is trying to say, and I'm hereby officially joining that club. I have no idea what all that was. I only know that it was #cyberpunk and had good style. Thanks.
7/10.
