I'm not sure if there's any truth to these anecdotes, quite probably not but I feel they're particularly poignant given the situation: When the U.S. first decided to send man to the moon, they spent billions of dollars inventing a pen that would write in zero gravity. Meanwhile the Russians used a pencil. Again with the race for hacking computers in the Russian Embassy to spy on the Russians, instead of spending billions of dollars securing their computers in a cyber arms race, they switched to typewriters. I find the simplicity in their solutions to these problems remarkably satisfying. It is this simplicity that calls me to just say fuck it, if you're going to act like that, I'm just not playing any more. I'll go do something else interesting that doesn't involve you.
