a bicycle for our minds

I was watching a recent(ish) rediscovered interview with Steve Jobs called Steve Jobs: The Lost Interview and thought I should share it with you. It is on netflix and other places scattered around the web. You should definitely watch the whole thing, but if you need more convincing here is an amazing clip.

The computer is the bicycle of the mind. It is still evolving. Bikes went from

to

and

in roughly 120 years. The personal computer has gone from

the Apple I in 1976  to

in 37 years. And this is just the outside.

The computer is obviously much more than a bike. Once you go down the rabbit hole, things can get very odd. It is much bigger on the inside than it is on the outside.
