Also reminded me of 1 of my favorite quotes:
"...STEM [Science, Technology, Engineering, Math] professionals are the mandarins of [this] computer age--and...our view of reality may turn out to be every bit as blinkered as the things 'everyone' knew in the inner courts of Versailles or St. Petersburg or the Forbidden Palace. There is a certain smell to the lies that privileged intellectuals tell each other in deeply divided societies during the last few gilded years before the streets catch fire."
