proustian qualities

Clearly there is a higher purpose to these discursive ruminations. In describing in great detail the new dog his next-door neighbor just got or by writing about how he was tired and just drank 3 cups of coffee from the vending machine down the hall, Eric is seeking to rescue these moments from the clutches of the past. Proust had the same obsession with the inexorable passage of time. I really have to hand it to Eric, how he elevates the importance of certain events in his life while simultaneously revealing their essential hollowness.

reading some blogs, you can totally find this quality. whether it adds value to the global discourse besides being an outlet for the blogging person, who knows. more reflection and less sup, dude? might lift quite a few of them above the irrelevance threshold.

Brainpower

So a computer with the processing capacity of a human brain is to be put to work by the government? Does the US government have any actual experience in managing something as powerful as a human brain? How long before the computer realizes it could do much better in the private sector?
