Recommended: Spend some time in a landscape. It seems to encourage
longer-term thinking, as Nicholas Carr
notes. Carr, whose book
The Shallows: What the Internet Is Doing to Our Brains I liked, also has an interesting piece in The Atlantic on how automation
erodes human expertise. I was considerably more of a technophile in the 1990s or early 2000s than I am now, one of a number of ways in which I've changed my mind but not 180 degrees.
Anyway, here's a landscape.
