I wonder if Steve saw this lecture by Richard Feynman, where Feynman uses a similar metaphor to explain how computers work.

  I absolutely love how Feynman speaks and writes about computers. Most of the time he's criticizing them for their ability to entice you to waste time by seeing what you can do with them. So, I second. Great anecdote!

    Most likely this one: https://youtu.be/EKWGGDXe5MA https://youtu.be/EKWGGDXe5MA Check out Feynman's very cool "Thinking Machines" t-shirt. He was working with Danny Hillis at the time.
