And when I say I build software for myself, well, this intimates something more and something less than what is actually going on. I’m not writing apps and compiling and debugging and so on. Perhaps in miniature, but nothing like what a lot of folks hanging around here are doing.

You see, I see the entire world as mostly software, not the mysteriously embodied incantations running around in TRON world, but everything. Street lights and signs and signals are the software of roads. Enticing pictures and ingredient lists and cooking instructions are software for your tummy, and so on.
