Is reading the way people install new software into their brains?
No.

Software is a set of instructions, so installing that is more comparable to potty-training. Reading a book is a form of acquiring data. If the set of instructions can use the data, we stop calling it data and dub it "information".

Next time your installer throws an error, be glad it tells you what is wrong and that you don't have to train it for months Smile | :)

Straw Poll

Were you affected by the geomagnetic storms this past weekend?
Communication disruptions, electrified pipes, random unexplained blue-screens in Windows - the list of effects is terrifying.
