-------
A frying-pan is technology.  All human artifacts are technology.  But beware anybody who uses this term.  Like "maturity" and "reality" and "progress", the word "technology" has an agenda for your behavior: usually what is being referred to as "technology" is **_something that somebody wants you to submit to_**.  "Technology" often implicitly refers to something you are expected to turn over to "the guys who understand it."

HTML is precisely what we were trying to PREVENT— ever-breaking links, links going outward only, quotes you can't follow to their origins, no [version management](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Version_management "Version management"), no rights management

**The Myth of "Logical Thinking"** ![](https://xanadu.com.au/ted/TN/WRITINGS/TCOMPARADIGM/noLogicalThinking.JPG)
> Users are told that learning to use computers is "learning to be logical".  This is nonsense.  You are learning to think like the guy who is conning you, though he probably does not realize it..
>
> "Logic" (deductive logic) is an intricate game of figuring out what you've already said; it is virtually useless in everyday life, where deduction from explicitly stated premises almost never occurs.
>
> So when you're praised for "logical thinking", it means you've absorbed a paradigm and can now step through it like the person who is praising you.
