In the schools, I trained in the Way of the Electron.
On the streets, I learned the Way of the Algorithm.
And I mastered these paths, but they were false paths. Their followers knewonly the Yang of Technology, and worshipped the Code. But technology has no soul, and code no conscience. And I despaired.
Yet I sought, and after many seasons, I found the Yin of Design. It spoke of people, not things. I studied the Way of the Interface, of human perception and understanding.
And I mastered this path, but it was a false path. Its followers were taught to answer questions. They could not question the questions themselves. And I despaired.
Yet I sought, and I thought, and I pursued my own path. And with time, I was enlightened.
The True Way transcends the minutia of Skill. There is no "Technology". There is no "Design". There is only avision of how humanity could be, and the relentless resolve to make it so. The rest is details.
This is the Way that I teach.
