Re: Snob, and proud of it.
I never said it was a black and white scenario, and I don't think I ever made it out to be as such (I hope).
What I'm saying is, it's ridiculous and unhealthy for us as individuals and a species, to rely on software and machines in order to understand things (or manage an illusion of such understanding) rather than just learning the stuff itself. If you ask me, the whole thing seems like something out of a Karl Schroeder novel. It's also ridiculous we go through tech so quickly, but that's another story.
