The only thing I got out of this is the fact that when people say ted Chiang is such a brilliant guy, you have to read his stuff, my mind is going to silently think no he's a sophist hack. Am I the only person who read this and thought my god this person is an idiot but is smart enough to get other people to think he's not an idiot but is actually a genius .
