A sobering and timely read for me also. Lately I have been considering the cross-section between social-acceptance and creative work: we applaud the work of anyone who pushes the boundaries of creativity and innovation, but only if they stay coherent. That's just not something you can promise yourself as you start off on a new tangent, there is a lot of failure involved and much of that failure is how you will be perceived. Looking into this operating system reminds me of looking into the slightly-less coherent mind of David Lynch or Lewis Carroll. Fascinating and frightening glimpses of brilliance.
