It was kinda funny at the end but sad when you think about he kinda predicted at least the ascension bit, hope we don't fall as hard as the videophony tech in the novel.

Yeah, I'm getting bored of this book. I could see the literary value of Ulysses and GR, but IJ feels like it was written by a intelligent kid who thought it'd be cool to show off a bit but went too far.
I'm thinking about dropping it and resume my Tolstoy readings.

[1] Homogeneity is the state of being homogeneous. Pertaining to the sciences, it is a substance where all the constituents are of the same nature (a) ; consisting of similar parts, or of elements of the like nature. For example, homogeneous particles, homogeneous elements, homogeneous principles, or homogeneous bodies; or (algebra) possessing the same number of factors of a given kind as with a homogeneous polynomial.
(a) Do not mistake with heterogeneous. A heterogeneous mixture is a mixture - pertaining to chemistry - of two or more compounds. I.e : Meme mixtures by faggot posters w/ or w/o pre-existing savoir-faire - most commonly known in the english equivalent 'know-how - on the modus operandi of reading literature. Mixtures of memes like - and not limited to - Moby Dick™®;Infinite Jest™®; Brothers Karamazov™®. During the sampling of heterogeneous mixtures of pseud posts, the valor of substance is inexistent.(b)
(b) Sampling error is generally non-zero.
[2] In Veeky Forums subculture there seems to be lack of general consensus as to the reasons one reads. Inexperienced posters often resort do 'ad hominem'(a) arguments, I.e; Git gud(b) sub-subvocalizing pleb, reading for plot etc. when confronted with 'the meme' - self adverting to this comes the realization that it often takes years of commitment and discipline to master Veeky Forums's multiple charts and something which the new friend(c) finds hard to accept - and often goes to great lengths to hide his inexperience.
(a) Latin for "to the man" or "to the person", A.H. is a logical fallacy in which an argument is rebutted by attacking the character, motive, or other attribute of the person making the argument, or persons associated with the argument, rather than attacking the substance of the argument itself. And but so this is regarded by the more serious part of the community - the one which enjoys literature and eloquent shitposting - as an annoyance and contributive part to the board's depreciation of general quality.
(b) Corruption of the frase "Get good"
(c) Veeky Forums argot referring to someone new and unfamiliar with Veeky Forums's protocols and lexicon. Derivative of the more offensive term 'newfag'
