What would be beyond principles? Seeing the situation as a whole, organically, and knowing always what to do or not do, what to say, or not say.
Imagine trying to sketch anything, using only straight lines. I don’t think it could be done, and even if it could be approximated, the effect would be obvious.
And if I might allow myself some political commentary, the activity of the emerging Commissariat within the tech companies consists, in the main, in removing all curved lines, all nuance, all detail, all the things that make humans not repetitious and compulsive animals, from their world, and that of the rest of us. It’s a mania, which might be most simply labeled a variant of endorsed and valorized OCD.
If you are curious, you love the new. If you need the world to be a certain way, you hate the new. You kill it when you can, and avoid it the rest of the time. This is the ocean we are heading into.
